────────────────────────────── break the mold, 型を破る ────────────────────────────── Global Conversation (3)より。
If someone or something breaks the mould, they completely change the way something has traditionally been done, and do it in a new way. The verbs 'shatter' and 'crack' are sometimes used instead of 'break'.
ex) His stated ambition is to create a third party and break the mould of US two-party politics.
[NOTE] 'Mould' is usually spelled 'mold' in American English.
