Treasure Hunt:

This year's Treasure Hunt resumes with a new Collector's Event featuring two mares and two stallions. When you purchase one mare and one stallion, you can send the UPC codes with form (included with each mare and stallion) to the manufacturer to receive one of four possible offspring (foal). Complete surprise, these foals may carry the attributes of either sire or dam, or both. A few lucky collectors may even receive twin foals! Each foal comes with registration papers.
