    4. Nooooooo--

      My Link is almost home and I went to order a My Twinn horse to mod into the perfect Epona for him and they don't have the Thoroughbred model anymoooooore! :( I don't want to settle for the Quarter horse version either. Poo. This was actually something I could afford too >.<

      Suggestions?? The Battat models are definitely too small, and unfortunately I can't afford the gorgeous Nahar.....

    5. you can sometimes find them on Ebay.
      I bought one that way once.
       
      #145 PamSD, Dec 20, 2010
    6. The Nightmare horse is actually on ebay, armor and all I believe for $850. Was $900. Considering it's already made "I assume", one doesn't have to wait five months production time. As much as I want it, I can't afford it. Plus I wish it had a mane.

      I've been looking at the MyTwinn horses and actually don't like them. I still wonder if 25" is ideal for my large boys. I want a plastic horse. Pretty much a larger 'Barbie' looking horse. I'm still on the lookout.

    7. Yep, I looked on eBay a few times (well, stalked it...) and all I can ever find is Battat horses. Which would be great if I were collecting MSDs. XD @moonlightdestiny-- I did see that listing, GAH I wish I could afford Nightmare.

      Well...on second look, I might actually go with the QH model. *shrug* After looking at game art photos of Epona, that model is a little chunkier than the other one, which might work out better in the long run. And the ears are set further apart, which I like. Hmmmmmmmmmm decisions...! I might just go with it, and try customizing it, who knows... I might just fall in love :)

    8. Welp, I won an auction on another Battat model...the grey Andalusian! :D I know she's going to be too small (again LOL) but I couldn't resist her. Who knows, with the way she's holding her head, all round at the poll like she's doing some cool dressage move, I might be able to make it look more in scale! Pictures to coooome!

    9. I'm so frustrated that My Twinn discontinued the Prancer model horse. It's really a tease on their website, too, that they have the Prancer in the pictures of the sleigh and the sleigh harness (which can still be purchased) but only the Quarter horse body shape is available. ARGH!! I want the more active look of that Prancer!
       
      #149 Kiyakotari, Jan 8, 2011
    10. me too...I emailed thembut have not heard back yet...maybe I should call.
       
      #150 PamSD, Jan 8, 2011
    11. I think the My Twinn Prancer is just out of stock. I could swear that it's been missing from their website before and then reappeared. I'm thinking that Christmas wiped out their stock of the Prancer horse. Yeah, I think it was out of stock last year when I had money and wanted to get one and then was back again after I'd spent the money. >.<#
       
      #151 tanzerse, Jan 8, 2011
    12. I eMailed My Twinn about the Prancer model horse (I described it as "the more active-looking horse that's shown in the pictures with the sleigh set"). They got back to me saying that they could not predict stock, but that if more people showed an interest in that model the department in charge of stocking was more likely to restock it, so they would forward my request to that department.

      TL;DR - Everyone eMail My Twinn and ask them to restock the older style of horse!!

    13. so I got some questions...since there are no Mytwinn horses in europe

      so Breyer Traditional work perfect for MSD?
      these horses are 1:9 scale, approx 30cm.
      however sometimes in the description, the sizes range from 25 to 35cm. how accurate are these measurments?
      ah and something popped up in my mind, if the horse is for example 'running' than it would be shorter than a horse simply standing on 4legs no? but the feel and scale would be the same?

      Can I customise them with real manes and tail?

      and there seem to be another type: Breyer Saddle Club which I think are smaller than the traditional?
      http://cgi.ebay.com/BREYER-SADDLE-C...600?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item19bbb07af0

      it's really hard to get an idea of the size of these horses :s anybody ever seen these?

      I noticed these horses from Playstoy company
      http://www.amazon.fr/Plastoy-Figurine-Animal-Cheval-Hanovrien/dp/B000V5GRD8/ref=pd_bxgy_t_img_c

      these are 25cm approx, but they don't look as detailed and pretty as the Breyer... but size wise would it work?
       
      #153 keii_chan, Apr 14, 2011
    14. actually...Breyer traditional are too small for even an MSD...they aren't even big enough for barbie.
      They are however pretty good for 10" dolls....the Soom Mini Gem is a wee bit too big but you can get away with it.

      I have dozens of Breyer from childhood and it irks me that none of my ABJDs can ride them.

      Your best bet for MSD is the Battat horses...here's a link to one on ebay...
      http://cgi.ebay.com/Beautiful-Batta...074?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5198b274a2
      Find a seller who ships to EU.
      Here is a link to my album full of MSDs on a Battat

    15. The Our Generation/Battatt horses make good lead-along pack ponies if your SD is fond of wandering or going on a picnic. They're just not tall enough to be horses.
       
      #155 Rosslyn, Apr 20, 2011
    16. Ugh, now that I have an elf girl coming I REALLY want a horse for her. I had like...5 Battat horses when I was younger....I wish I kept them. But, they all got sent over to Ukraine along with all my other childhood toys for an orphanage.
      But, what size (inches) do you guys would think is suitable for a 63cm doll? She's supposed to be tall for a woman (about 6 ft.) Would one of the Battat horses work well or should I go for a My Twinn?
       
      #156 SharinganBlossom91, May 31, 2011
    17. The Battat horses are 18-20" tall the My Twinn say 25inches tall. So if your doll is 63cm=24in then I would probably say the My Twinn since its larger, but I haven't seen one in person so not sure what they look like.
       
      #157 Kitty Blue, May 31, 2011
    18. SharinganBlossom91 ....My Twinn is your best bet...there are some photos with dolls farther back in the thread...or search "horse" under PamSD for lots of pics.

      Good luck finding one of the Prancers...MT doesn't carry them anymore and I almost never see them for sale.
       
      #158 PamSD, May 31, 2011
    19. Alright, thanks guys!

      Opinions...
      Breyers need very small dolls inthe 8" and smaller scale.
      If you can find the 1/6th scale or GI Joe horse...it's best with Tinies.
      The best horse for MSD is the Battat.
      The best horse for SD13 is the My Twinn Prancer.
      (their new horse is not as big)
      I love Nahar for SD13 but not with EID.
