Preparations Under Way for BrickFair Virginia – August 2-3, 2014
Next week the Brickmania van will be hitting the road for Brickfair Virginia – easily the biggest gathering of fan-created LEGO creations in the country. We will have a joint booth with our friends at BrickArms, GI Brick and Brickstuff. Our vendor booth presence will be scaled down from previous years, but you can expect us to have the very best and latest products in stock, including two new US Ranger mini kits that will be released exclusively at this event (if there are left overs we’ll put ’em up on the web store).
Dan’s completed USS Nicholas (DD449) will be headed to Brickfair, VA. You can preview it this weekend at Brickmania Toyworks’ open house. At just under 11 feet in length, the “Nick” is the largest ship model to be displayed at Brickmania, but will be dwarfed by the 1/35 scale battleship USS Missouri to be built this coming winter.
US Ranger with Remote Controlled Vehicle to be released at Brickfair VA. Limited to just 50 copies, it contains a remotely controlled weapons platform and one of our premium custom-printed Task Force Ranger minifigs.
US Ranger with Advanced Optics M2HB to be released at Brickfair VA. This is a modified BrickArms M2HB heavy machine gun with one of our premium Task Force Ranger minifigs. This is also limited to just 50 copies. If there are any left overs from Virginia, you can expect them in our web store shortly after.
Look for our booth in the Military section. Fromt he front entrance we are located towards the back of the hall, on your left hand side.

New World War I Minifig: Australian Light Horse Infantry
Since the Renault FT17 tank was so well received, we’re going to continue the World War I theme throughout the rest of the year (even more fitting since we’re now 100 years from the start of the Great War). Look for more WWI custom mini kits and minifigs in the next few weeks. And yes we’ll have Central Powers represented too!
Leading off this new campaign with a new Australian Light Horse Infantry soldier. The uniform is supplied by MMCB Custom Capes (From Australia) and he’s equipped with a BrickArms SMLE rifle and LEGO horse, saddle and short sword. This figures will be limited in nature, so don’t miss out!
M35A2 “Task Force Ranger” Truck with Optional Extra Ranger Minifigs
The Army Rangers for our Task Force Ranger (Black Hawk Down) kits were the most expensive and difficult custom figures we’ve ever made. Because of this we’re not planning on selling them individually—even we are constantly being asked to do so. To find some sort of middle ground, we are giving everyone a limit-time opportunity to obtain up to three extra Rangers with the purchase of the Task Force Ranger version of the M35A2 “Deuce and a Half” Truck. And don’t forget the Humvee also comes with two rangers!
BrickArms M1 Steel Pot Helmet with Custom Fabric Camouflage Netting
The first batch sold out so quickly we quickly asked Thomas to make us more… on the double! These are standard M1 Steel Pot Helmets with a hand-applied fabric camouflaged net. They are durable enough to play with and look great too! Look for other color M1 Steel Pots and Brodie Helmets coming soon…
Minifig Customization – Decal Starter Kit Bundle is Back!
For a limited time we’re offering the Minifig Customization book bundled with a Roaglaan’s Customs WW2 decal sample pack and a sheet of ultra-fine grit sandpaper (useful for removing the old printing off your old figures).
