We hope all our BreyerFest Blog readers had an enjoyable weekend. Were you able to guess our clue?
When the Events Team discovered this niche snack food of yore, we knew we just HAD to name a BreyerFest model in honor of this delightful, donkey-driven confection.
In the late 1890s and early 1900s, Peanutine was a treat that was unique to the shores of Old Orchard Beach in Maine and sold to customers via a peanut-shaped wagon pulled by a tandem of donkeys. The recipe is simple and can be found here, and while there is little known about how many of these adorable wagons were made, their legacy lives on through beautiful postcards that have been preserved.
To pay tribute to this adorably odd piece of driving history, our Peanutine model has been done as a handsome dark brown spotted donkey on Brighty, mold #375, sculpted by the iconic Chris Hess.
This Special Run model will be available to VIP and All-Access Ticket holders and will make a great addition to your Brighty conga! We will see you right back here on the BreyerFest Blog tomorrow for more!

This is my favorite so far! Love Brighty and his paint is so nice!

SOLD! Getting BreyeFest All-Access tickets on Day 1. I sure wish they still offered the online VIP tickets, since I can’t make it in person.

WOW……

Tennessee Titan’s little brother. This one unfortunately will be at the bottom of my wish list. Too bad because I do like the donkey molds.

Lea Robinson, Not everyone knows or has someone interested in the hobby to just run to Kentucky and pick up model horses for them. There are people like myself that have no one and no possible way to get there due to health problems and a rational fear of crowds since pandemic. If I am understanding what I read I believe online all access ticket holders can purchase one special run model this year. Your comment sounded like you think everyone is entitled enough to just have that conveinience of someone to go shopping for them who is also a breyer collector. I don’t know anyone and don’t trust a stranger to go. I also can not pay even more money to the person who would be picking them up.

And just like that… I decided I’m going to Kentucky in July…

OMG OMG OMG!!! Ive never been a fan of donkeys but this guy is TOO CUTE!! Breyer you are doing an EPIC job on all these models! Omg!

For everyone complaining that they can’t buy all the models because they’re not traveling to KY for BF…YOU CAN by simply buying an All Access ticket & passing it along to a friend who’s going or to a pick-up person.
That’s the way it was done for 30 yrs before Breyer started having a virtual BF. It worked then & it will work now. People who can’t attend are not being denied access to all the models. Just buy a VIP or All Access ticket & arrange for someone who’s going to pick up the models. It’s not that difficult.

Aww! I love him!
I really wish he was available for online peoplets, but I understand you have to keep them limited. :) So grateful you are letting us have a SR at all this year. Looking forward to the next release for virtual folks!
January 09, 2023
Very cute! But again, not offered to online ticket holders. What a shame. So far the only one offered online is the only one I won’t buy.
January 09, 2023
Love this one! Unfortunately work prevents me from ever attending live at Breyerfest, so now y’all are 2 for 2 on SRs that I love but will not be available to online attendees. I suppose my wallet will thank you this year since I way overspent last year. But still…… ugh
January 09, 2023
Adorable! I wish I could win him ❤️!
January 09, 2023
So cute!

Love this, especially the niche history (the fact I recently lost my Beagle Clementine and this is named close enough I probably would have nicnamed her Peanutine if she were still around tugs at my heart). Wish she was for the Online Traditional Ticket since I don’t have the funds to actually make it out to Kentucky this year (which is a let down as I’ve gone 2019-2022).
January 09, 2023
Double Wow and this one is so pretty and beautiful and I can’t wait until Breyerfest and so I can get this beautiful horse and add it to my Breyer horse Collection for good and forever.
January 09, 2023
I was kind of hoping for something on the st.Bernard mold just because they are large working dogs but this brighty is cute too!! Wish I could attend this year, it’s on my bucket list to make it to a breyerfest ❤️
January 09, 2023
I live in Maine sad I can’t get one.
January 09, 2023
There are no words to describe except one, Adorable!! Thanks Breyer!
January 09, 2023
OMG! I literally squealed when i saw him! he is so cute!!!
January 09, 2023
I was one of the people that thought it would be Brighty and for once my guess was right. What a delightful bit of driving history! Peanutine is adorable and his namesake treat sounds delicious. I hope you’ll offer it at Breyerfest this year. It’d be fun for people to be able to eat Peanutine after receiving their Peanutine.
January 09, 2023
I know every detail of Brighty. I knew it was him and so did most everyone. But oh no looks like in person only. I hope there is a way to get him virtually or I’ll have to pay a fortune second hand!
January 09, 2023
Oh no!
It’s a pity that traditional online ticket holders won’t be able to buy this baby! He’s very cute!
January 09, 2023
How cute! I love the history that comes with this guy!
January 09, 2023
Can’t wait for breyersfest. All are so beautiful.getting my list ready
January 09, 2023
Cute model and interesting story. Hope no one will be making this confection on site at BF due to those who are allergic as all it takes is touching something and an allergic person touching the same surface to cause a serious allergic reaction. Just smelling peanuts can cause problems. Don’t bring this to confection to BF please.
January 09, 2023
Everyone (including me lol) was right! What a cute boy ♥♥
January 09, 2023
