New Release: WWII US Fighting Seabee
About the WWII US Fighting Seabee:
When the US Navy began striding further towards the Japanese mainland, the need for quickly completed infrastructure became an immediate necessity. The answer was the new Construction Battalion or C.B. (hence the nickname Seabee) that was tasked with building everything from bridges to runways and were renowned throughout the United States Armed Forces for their unrelenting work ethic.
Representing an essential part of the war effort in the South Pacific during WWII, the Brickmania Fighting Seabee minifig includes all the grit and determination necessary to complete the impossible on budget and ahead of schedule. Adorned with simulated chambray textured shirt and dungaree trousers, this minifigure also features US military web gear and a familiar face, Pilgrim. All artwork was designed by Lando and printed at the Brickmania® HQ by our UV print team.

New Release: Natasha – WWII Seabees Bulldozer
About Natasha – WWII Seabees Bulldozer:
Featured in the John Wayne classic The Fighting Seabees, the bulldozer named Natasha was part of the equipment used by the naval construction battalions known as Seabees — the nickname comes from the initials of their official designation: Construction Battalion or C.B. Born from the need for infrastructure on small islands in the South Pacific, the Seabees were tasked with various projects such as repairing airfields and roadways, all to be completed under the most difficult and dangerous of circumstances. Their ingenuity was legendary as they were known to fix equipment in unorthodox ways, including using oil drums to craft bulldozer radiators. Upon their creation, Admiral Ben Moreell bestowed them with their official motto Construimus, Batuimus: “We Build, We Fight.”

New Release: SB2C Helldiver – Carrier-Based Dive Bomber
About the SB2C Helldiver – Carrier-Based Dive Bomber:
Replacing the SBD Dauntless in 1943 as the U.S. Navy’s premier dive bomber, the SB2C Helldiver sank more Japanese ships in the Pacific than any other Allied aircraft. Mostly launching from aircraft carriers, the plane’s wings folded up to form a triangle, making it capable of being stacked and stored which created more room for takeoff or landing and allowed more planes to be stored on airfields or carriers. Capable of carrying 2,000 pounds of bombs or a single torpedo in the internal bomb bay, the Helldiver’s ordnance payload made it a formidable opponent over sea or land.
Specifications:
- Speed: 294 mph (473 km/h)
- Range: 1,200 miles (1,931 km)
- Crew: 2 (pilot and gunner)
- Max. Takeoff Weight: 16,800 lbs (7,620 kg)

Featuring printed posable dive brakes, bomb bay doors, landing gear, and tailhook, the Brickmania SB2C is packed with lifelike functions. Loaded with rockets and built in a three-tone color scheme modeled after the Bombing Banshees, the model’s wings fold into the iconic triangle above the cockpit to allow for more space while stored on aircraft carriers. It also features a tail gunner reconfiguration to provide access to dual M1919s. The model has a 17 in (43 cm) wingspan, 12.8 in (32.5 cm) length, and 5.9 in (15 cm) height.

Restock: A6M5 Zero – WWII Long-Range Fighter
About the A6M5 Zero – WWII Long-Range Fighter:
Perhaps one of the most successful fighter planes in history upon its release, the A6M5 Zero spent its first two years of production as the most feared fighter on the planet, racking up a kill ratio of 12 to 1. However, as aircraft engines advanced, the Zero soon ran out of luck as the plane could not be modified to include a higher powered engine. Due to the struggling war-time Japanese economy, the Zero remained in service in high numbers until the end of World War II. The A6M5 version was first produced in 1943 and was all the Japanese could muster to keep up with the expanding variants of Allied aircraft.

Restock: Panzer III Ausf. E – German Medium Tank
About the Panzer III Ausf. E – German Medium Tank:
The workhorse of early German conquests, the Panzer III provided the necessary speed and armament for blitzkrieg tactics. Mobilized by Erwin Rommel’s Afrikakorps, the Panzer III (and its variants) remained the most numerous German tank during the North African campaign. It also played a key role during the invasion of France and the Low Countries in 1940. Although underpowered against French and British tanks, the sheer concentration of armor against thinly deployed Allied tanks allowed the smaller Panzer III to overwhelm Allied armor units.
The Ausf E variant served as the standard for future models beginning with the Ausf F. The chassis for this tank would also serve as the basis for the StuG III Ausf G tank destroyer.
Specifications:
- Crew: 5
- Armament: 3.7 cm KwK 36 L/46.5 or 5 cm KwK 38 L/42, 3x 7.92mm MG34
- Engine: Maybach HL 120 TR V12 gasoline
- Speed: 24 mph (40 km/h)
- Range: 102 mi (165 km)
Features of the Panzer III:
Brickmania’s Panzer III Ausf E kit is designed to represent the standard medium gun tank used by the German forces during the early years of World War II, wearing the colors of the famed Deutsches Afrikakorps. The kit includes fully articulated Brickmania Track Links™, a rotating turret with elevating 37mm high velocity gun, and opening hatches for the vehicle commander. It also includes a hull-mounted MG34 Machine Gun from BrickArms, and a sticker set with national insignia, turret numbers and the DAK logo. The Panzer III Ausf E kit was designed specifically with a number of add-on pack upgrades in mind, and can also be customized by the builder.

Restock: Sdkfz 222 – German Light Armored Car
About the Sdkfz 222 – German Light Armored Car:
The mechanization of war in the early twentieth century resulted in sweeping changes. The advent of the machine gun rendered the cavalry charge ineffective. Replacing this old tactic was the invention of armored cars and tanks. These new “cavalry” units were organized into mechanized and armored divisions, often performing the same role that soldiers on horseback were once tasked with in combat: penetrating enemy lines and providing reconnaissance. The Sdkfz 222 Light Armored Car was primarily deployed for the latter purpose of providing recon for commanders and spotting enemy troops and fortified positions. It could also engage enemy troops in skirmishes, providing support to friendly infantry with its 2cm main cannon and machine gun.
Specifications:
- Engine: Horch 801 V-8 3.5 liter
- Armament: 2cm KwK main gun, MG34 machine gun
- Range: 124 mi (200 km)
- Speed: 43 mph (70 km/h)
- Crew: 3
