Hidalgo
Collection
In 2004 Breyer introduced a
series of models and plush items based on Touchstone Pictures newly
released movie "Hidalgo." The film tells the
story of American cowboy and "the greatest rider the West had ever
known" Frank T. Hopkins and his horse, Hidalgo. In 1890 Hopkins was
invited to enter the Ocean of Fire, a fearsome race of 3,000 miles
across the Arabian Desert, competing against the world's greatest
Arabian horses and their Bedouin riders. The movie was a large
success and Breyer released several model horses as a tie-in to this
popular horse movie.
