About the Renault R35:

The Renault R35 was a French light infantry tank used during WWII. The tank was designed in 1934 and produced from 1936. It was intended as a light infantry support tank equipping autonomous tank battalions that would be allocated to individual infantry divisions to assist them in executing offensive operations. The R35 was relatively well-armored but slow and lacking a good antitank-capacity, fitted with only a short 37 mm gun. At the outbreak of the war, the anti-tank role was more emphasized, leading to the eventual production of a subtype with a more powerful longer gun.

To save time, Renault based the suspension and running gear on that of the AMR 35 that was designed for the cavalry. It had five wheels at each side fitted with horizontal leaf springs like the AMC-35. The Renault 35 was used in Poland, Romania, France and French colonies. Numerous countries used captured R35 variants and retrofitted them for security duties or driver training.

New Release: Erwin Rommel

1200x_210-Action-Webcard-710

Rommel first gained prominence during WWI, and with his natural skill in command, he quickly rose in rank. His victories in the Battle of France established his popularity. Later successes in Africa gave him the nickname “Desert Fox” and he became a popular hero, not just in Germany but also in Allied propaganda. This Rommel (France 1940) minifigure features exclusive custom-printed artwork designed by Lando!

Restock: Flak 36 8.8cm Anti-Aircraft Gun

2103-Action-Webcard-710

The Flak 36 8.8cm Anti-Aircraft Cannon, popularly known as the “88,” was one of Germany’s most lethal weapons of World War II. Originally designed for high-altitude anti-aircraft fire, the deadly effects of the gun’s high velocity shells versus ground targets, armored vehicles in particular, became a thing of legend.  The “88” was typically set up on a cruciform mount for anti-aircraft defense, but the same gun/mount combination was often dug in to deep pits for anti-tank/anti-personnel roles.

Additional information about this Brickmania custom Lego® kit:

The 8.8cm Flak 36 has the following features

  • Fully traversable gun rotates a full 360° and elevates to 90°
  • Outriggers on cruciform mount fold up for transport
  • 1/35 scale to match other Brickmania models
  • Over-all color is dark gray
  • Includes 137 genuine new-condition LEGO® elements
  • Intermediate Skill Level (4-6 years experience with LEGO is recommended)

All Brickmania model kits are made of new-condition LEGO bricks. This model comes disassembled and includes completed printed building instructions and comes packaged in a sealed box. This is a limited edition kit and production may be discontinued at any time.

Restock: Nebelwerfer 41

2006-Action-Webcard-710

The Nebelwerfer, which means “Smoke Thrower”, was a rocket launcher used by the Nebeltruppen. The launcher was portable, packing up to be towed behind a vehicle, with a range of 6,900 metres (7,500 yd) and its 6 barrels could be fired simultaneously. The Nebeltruppen functioned like the US Army’s Chemical Corps, using launchers to throw smoke, poison gas, and explosive weapons into enemy territory. Almost five and a half million 15 cm rockets and six thousand launchers were manufactured over the course of the war. The American soldiers in Sicily named the gun the “Screaming Mimi”, referencing the loud scream-like quality of the incoming artillery.

(Kit includes Nebelwerfer 41 only, Minifigure Sold Separately, Additional LEGO Elements for display only)

Additional information about this Brickmania custom Lego® kit:

  • 1/35 scale matches other Brickmania models
  • The over-all color scheme of this model is dark gray
  • Includes 59 LEGO elements.
