Let’s Talk BreyerFest...Contests, That Is!
Here is the information that a lot of you have been waiting for. I know that some of you will not be pleased and for that I am very sorry. However, just please remember that this is a fan group and I am only bringing you and clarifying the information. If you have questions about the logistics of the rules, please email Breyer as they will know much more in depth about the laws than I will. Let’s start with the Diorama Contest.
