	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.
