In this original release for the Clydesdale Mare and Foal, they are rich chestnuts with airbrushed socks and blazes. They were sold together as a set from 1971-1990, and came with green felt blankets with white trim. The earliest blankets have metal hook closures; later ones use Velcro. B-stamp models were only made for a few years in the 1980s, and often have more detailed and nuanced paint jobs than usual, making them more sought-after.
The mare is in Excellent condition, wanting to be Near Mint. She has tiny eartip rubs and moderate age yellowing that you can brighten back up with a couple weeks of sunbathing. She has a little factory plastic goober on her left neck (painted over). She is very much worth spending the time to sunbathe! She's a B-stamp model, with the lovely paint job we expect from these. I recognized her as a B-stamp before she even got her pre-processing wipe-down because of the gorgeous speckly paint job, soft blending into her bald face, charcoal-shaded nostrils, and unglossed eyes.
Her filly is in Near Mint, marked down only for a tiny eartip rub and mild age yellowing, which you can correct with a few days of sunbathing. She's one of those that you see and immediately say, "That's got to be a B-Stamp model," and are right - Her paint job just has that something extra that you always seem to see with B models. She's a super light variation, with a mane and tail that have both light charcoal and chestnut blended in them, with lovely highlights and "nail polish pink" muzzle pinking.
The pair even come with their original green and white blankets with Velcro closures.
