Pre-Order Mesa Achiever LE-30 FCM Ideal Stock Horse by Ashley Palmer TS25

    Up next in our newest product line, another fun walk down memory lane with the Stone Tribute Series! Next year celebrates 30 years of Stone Horses and The Peter Stone Company, and boy, do we have some fun surprises for you to reminisce over.

    Stone has produced some iconic pieces over the decades, and we are having so much fun honoring a selection of those early pieces by revisiting them in new ways. We’re not exactly reproducing these gorgeous pieces, but rather drawing inspiration from them to create new pieces from our sculpture lineup and current production processes. Think of them as cover songs – in homage to the original.

    Up next – a celebration of Mesa Believer! As a young performance shower in 1996 when this model was released, he was a total game changer. The first original finish plastic horse to be sculpted specifically for western pleasure, how exciting! He dominated for years in western pleasure, trail, showmanship, anything that required an in-frame stock horse jog. We think he still holds up, too – there’s just something special about this model. Stone Horses was a brand new company in 1996, and boy did Peter and Elaine have a dream that they believed in. Thirty years on, and they are enjoying their retirement and their legacy is strong and growing in Stone Horses. Ashley Palmer has designed two phenomenal looks for this release that showcase the detail and dimension we pack into every single model we offer.

    Mesa Achiever is a gorgeously dimensional lightly fleabitten dappled grey with all the lightning marks and leg detailing especially seen in this shade of grey, plus warm shading through his banded mane and banged show tail.

    He is depicted on our Ideal Stock Horse mold with a new look by Melanie Miller. She gave him a customized head and neck position to be a little straighter, hand-customized his mane to individually carved locks of banded hairs, and gave him a banged end to his show tail, with correctly carved texture on the underside.
