For 250 years, the story of America has been written through the lives of ordinary people: Neighbors helping neighbors, communities rebuilding after hardship, and passing on hope. This reminds us that our greatest strength is each other.
What better way to commemorate this important milestone, than with this pairing between our good natured neighbor, the shire, and a proud, spirited eagle. Shires were imported into the US from Great Britain in the 1800's, used for land clearing, logging, and to help build the network of railways that connects us all to one another, and eagles have always been a symbol of our ability to soar.
The kind-hearted "Winston" shire was sculpted by Kelly Sealey, and his good friend "Freedom" the eagle was sculpted by Holly Harris.
Perched atop the crest of his neck along for a ride and secured with a peg, the eagle is removable! The models are crafted of solid, high impact resin (plastic) and sealed with UV protectant. Each model is hand-painted by our in-house artisan, to the highest level of detail.
The edition will be open for orders beginning July 4th, 2026 at 8 am. Eastern Standard time, and each model is sold separately as a gambler's choice, until they sell out.
**There will be 25 of each special release model made for a total run of 100 pieces.**
Each model is Coppercub scale, approximately 1/30-1/32 scale. They will begin shipping in August through September 2026, with a small number of models available in Lexington Kentucky next weekend.
PRE-ORDERS and IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
- This model is crafted to order, so please allow several weeks for shipping.
