Tortuga Coloring

What is Tortuga Coloring?
Tortuga coloring is a transparent, colored plastic, with different shades throughout. They look almost like blown glass!

Where does the name come from?
The November/December 2004 JAH Connoisseur model was named Tortuga. Tortuga was on the Andalusian stallion mold, and was a red tortoise shell color.

What horses have been made like Tortuga?
Well, of course, Tortuga has been made in this coloring. Also Tortuga Del Mar and Gala.

Tortuga, the November/December 2004 JAH Connoisseur.

Tortuga Del Mar, a 2005 Breyerfest Auction Piece on the Andalusian Stallion mold. He is a green Tortuga. The winning bid was $1,800. Pictures to come later.

Gala is blue Tortuga on the 5-Gaiter mold. He is a Breyerfest 2009 Special Run. I hope to buy him at Breyerfest. If I do, I'll be sure to post pics! :D
