Yay! So happy you’re highlighting homely little Sea Star. I have the original since I have all of the original Marguerite Henry’s books & the models based on them. The only thing that makes little Sea Star so wonky is his short neck. His crooked front legs & high rear end aren’t that unusual in newborn foals. It’s the neck that’s off. Lengthen it 1/2 an inch & it would totally change everything, including his appeal.
Aww I feel sorry for little Sea Star. I have the Cascade and Caspian set and the Misty set and also the Phantom and Misty one. I've never really looked that hard at him or other wonky vintage Breyer's. It could be my insanely horse crazy mind and personality that I look at these guys through rose colored glasses 😆 but I can see what collectors are saying about him and his actual makeup. I agree with you on the Palomino color and some of the others do make him look a little better. I'd still buy him but probably only in a set 😁
Ah poor little Sea Star. I know I had one of these once...not sure if I still have him. If someone customized him I bet he could be so cute but as he stands, well, that short neck! I'd take Smokey the cow horse over Sea Star.
Imo I think he is the most f tier, even after poor Khemosabi, but so f tier it wraps around to s tier and I kinda want to conga him 😂 I got Biscuits and Gravy at the event and I kinda fell in love (that's mine in the IDYB pic actually lol). Also, oh my gosh please make a unicorn Stormy that would be adorable!
I like the mold just fine. Most ponies have short necks & you would expect pony foals to have extra short necks. I know a lot of people don't like the look of ponies, but I do. Welsh Cobs particularly & they are known for their short thick necks. I'm glad there is a variety of molds to keep everyone happy, but as a pony lover, I really like the mold (paint job could be much better)

I'm hoping for a unicorn Misty and Stormy set for the 75th anniversary!
@The4srs oohh yes that would be amazing 😍

The palomino is actually very cute. If only it wasn't for his short neck.
