April 2017 Hashtag Giveaway
Brickmania has decided to run another hashtag social media giveaway event for the entire month! We often receive questions about how it works, and have decided to make a FAQ to answer general questions.
How do I enter the giveaway?
- On Facebook, share one of our posts to your timeline and insert the hashtag #
#gotterdammerungbricks into the post. Alternatively, make a post on your timeline/wall with the hashtag #gotterdammerungbricks. Note: Unless your Facebook account is set to public, we cannot see a private post on your wall. Additionally, using the hashtag as a comment in one of our posts, does not count. Continued spamming of the hashtag in the same post can disqualify you.
- On Twitter, tweet using the hashtag #gotterdammerungbricks. Alternatively, retweet one of our posts and use the hashtag #gotterdammerungbricks in your share.
- On Instagram, make a new image or take a picture and use the hashtag #gotterdammerungbricks. Note, unless your profile/image is public, the post cannot be seen by anyone but you. Keep in mind that spamming/using the hashtag as a comment on one of our images not only does not qualify for an entry, but repeated use can result in disqualification.
Can I enter more than once?
- Yes, you can enter as many times as you like! It can raise the chance of becoming that week’s winner significantly.
Why does commenting on posts not count?
- Something that we have learned from past events is that people often comment on our own posts through Facebook and Instagram using the hashtag. This does not count, and repeated use can result in complete disqualification.
- The purpose of running a hashtag giveaway is to share our content to new people; commenting on Brickmania posts does not share our brand, products, name, etc
What do I get if I win? How will I know if I won?
- Each week, Brickmania staff will compile a list of everyone who has entered to that point in the month (it is retroactive, so if you entered on January 3rd, later in the month, it will still count)
- A winner will be selected for each week randomly from one of the three social media networks we are doing the giveaway on. The winner will be contacted through that platform’s Direct Messaging system (it is important that if you want to enter, make sure you have a way to directly communicate with us)
- When the winner is selected, they will receive a kit (new or restock), which will be sent through the mail straight to their address!
- Upon selecting a winner, Brickmania staff will produce one post per social media platform announcing the winner to the world!
*These rules can be changed at any time, and Brickmania reserves the right to change and tweak things if needed

About the Panzer VIII Maus:
The Panzer VIII Maus was a German WWII super-heavy tank completed in late 1944. It is the heaviest fully enclosed armored fighting vehicle ever built. Five were originally ordered, but only two hulls and one turret were completed before the testing grounds were captured by the advancing Soviet forces. These two prototypes – one with, and the other without a turret – underwent trials in late 1944. The Maus’ main armament was the Krupp-designed 128 mm KwK 44 L/55 gun, based on the 12.8 cm Pak 44 anti-tank field artillery piece which was used in the casemate-type Jagdiger tank destroyer. The 128 mm gun was powerful enough to destroy all Allied armored fighting vehicles then in service, some at ranges exceeding 3,500 m.
The principle problem in the design of the Maus was developing an engine and drivetrain which was powerful enough to propel the tank, yet small enough to fit inside it. The drive train was electrical, designed to provide a maximum speed of 12 mph and a minimum speed of 0.93 mph. However, during actual field testing the maximum speed achieved on hard surfaces was 8.1 mph with full motor field. The vehicle’s weight made it unable to utilize most bridges, instead it was intended to ford to a depth of 6 ft 7 in, or submerge up to a depth of 26 ft 3 in and use a snorkel to cross rivers. The Maus was intended to punch holes through enemy defenses in the manner of an immense “breakthrough tank”, whilst taking almost no damage to any components. There is a captured Maus prototype on display by the Kubinka Tank Museum in Russia.
