    Breyer Horses Mego Scale?

    I have not done any research but was wondering if anyone here knows what size Breyer horse would be closest to Mego scale. Thanks

    The main(largest) Breyer line has some that would be decent scale for Megos. Don't go for the Stablemates or Little Bits. I used to collect Breyers as a kid, and I have all my old ones. A while back I had taken pics of Megos riding them for comparison, but I don't know if I have it anymore. Some of them are a little large, but not too bad. The line isn't completely consistent in size, so some will be a good match and some will be way too big.

      Thanks.....

      I guess my best bet is to bring one of my AJ's on a little shopping trip and see how he looks on them.....

          The ones that are best for Mego scale are the ones that are "Traditional" size.

          To do list:

                There was a AJ on a breyer Horse on ebay recently. AJ was wearing a custom long leather coat, but looked a perfect fit on that Horse, sorry can't find the link though.

                  Yeah, Traditional. That's what I meant by the largest size. But there is still some variation in size. Some of the ones I had were pretty big. I guess it depends on what breed it's supposed to be. I tried to check Photobucket, just in case I still had the pictures there, but it was under maintenance earlier.

                          I'm afraid I have no idea. I bought it on Ebay about 3 years ago and remember very little about it. The saddle and reins are homemade. You are right though, Zorro would look good on it.

                            Breyer reuses a lot of their molds, so it's usually not hard to find the same model in a different color. I know some of these are too expensive, but here's a few of the repaints. Since the first one I found is called a mustang, that's what I used as search result(Breyer horse mustang) and found several results. It also looks like that pose is often referred to as a "Semi-rearing stallion" or a "fighting stallion" in the auction. That's probably what they were labelled in the Breyer catalog.
