It’s Toy Time Tuesday!With…Breyer Stablemates Unicorn Foal Surprise Celestial Famil
It’s Toy Time Tuesday!With…Breyer Stablemates Unicorn Foal Surprise Celestial Family!With the (apparent) success of their first 3 ‘surprise’ families packs, they release another set of 3 different families. There is the Enchanted, the Windswept, and this, the Celestial Family. As you can see they come in the ‘gimmick type’ box where you do see the parents but the child is hidden in a ‘castle tower’ blind box within the box. Each unicorn here is quite pretty but they seem to (on all of these) actually miss the entire point of ‘family’ sets because the child should look like it is related to the parents. That’s the whole point of cute family toys is “how did the parents creatively mix to get the child animal”*. I guess this lot adopted. The mother is a lovely gold and very pearly palomino, and the father is a middle gold-blue with gold hair. The child though, is a super dark purple-blue (Like wind dancer Kona) with bright gold for the hooves and horn. The laying down baby pose is cute, with one leg reached forward and the others folded. It’s a content looking pose with good sculpting.Fantasy palomino works really well here! Transforming the blonde body to gold and the white hair to pearl is a lovely combination. The stallion has something ‘vintage’ or an antique-type look to his color. Mom in this case seems a wild adventurer while Dad is a steadfast planner…but they love their adopted purple child & look forward to adventures with him/her. (They don’t tell you if it is a filly or a colt)These are good sets to collect if you can find them at a reasonable price. This was 9.99 at Amazon in spring 2022, so I grabbed it but often they are more expensive than to be really worth it for small stablemates size horses and a gimmick type box you must de-box/rid of anyway.*Yes sometimes a child animal turns out very different from the parents, or a baby horse sheds off a different-looking coat as it ages (Ex. Lipizzaner starts out brownish but turns white later in life on purpose, same with Ibis birds) HOWEVER that’s not the point of cute matching family animal toys even though it happens IRL. -- source link
