About the Spitfire Mk Vb:

The Spitfire MK Vb was a British plane used during WWII, and served as the only Allied fighter aircraft to fight in front line service from beginning to end. Post-war, the Spitfire’s service career continued into the 1950s. Its basic airframe proved to be incredibly versatile and adaptable. This included the capability of having far more powerful engines and far greater loads than its original role as a short-range interceptor had called for. These changes were made to combat the ever-improving enemy aircraft.

The VB became the main production version of the Mark Vs. Along with the new Merlin 34 series, the B wing was fitted as standard. Starting in early 1941, the round section exhaust stacks were fitted with six shorter exhaust stacks per side, similar to those of Spitfire IXs and Seafire IIIs. A constant flow of modifications were made as production progressed. A “blown” cockpit hood was introduced in an effort to further increase the pilot’s head-room and increase visibility. Different propeller types were fitted and an improved windscreen assembly was implemented to increase bullet resistance. The VB series were the first Spitfires able to carry a range of specially designed “slipper” drop tanks, which were fitted underneath the wing center-section. The VB could be identified by the large Vokes air filter fitted under the nose.

social-media-710

The M4 Sherman was the workhorse medium tank of US and western Allied forces during World War II. Armed with a multi-purpose 75mm gun that could fire both high-explosive and anti-tank rounds, it ruled the battlefield when first introduced. Even though the Sherman would later prove inferior in firepower and armor to heavier German Panther and Tiger Tanks, it’s superior mobility, reliability and ease of manufacture proved to be a wartime winner.

Additional information about this Brickmania building kit:

We have updated our popular Sherman kit to take full advantage of the new double-wide Brickmania Track Links™. While this kit does not have all the detail of our premium level kits, it does have the most important ones covered. This is designed to be an intermediate level kit, designed to help transition the builder into Brickmania’s more advanced level kits. It is also the perfect kit for those looking to add their own custom details.

Features of this model:

  • Fully articulated double-wide Brickmania Track Links™ tank treads
  • Custom pad-printed tank commander minifigure + two US star insignia tiles
  • BrickArms M2HB machine gun secondary armament
  • Turret fully rotates and main gun can be raised and lowered
  • Opening hatches for drivers and tank commander

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.

Special Offer:

Buy the SPAD S.XIII by February 20th and get free shipping on your entire order*

*Within the USA free shipping means delivery by the United States Postal Service using First Class Mail (packages up to 8 ounces) and Priority Mail (packages over 8 ounces).

About the SPAD S.XIII

The SPAD S.XIII was a French biplane fighter aircraft of WWI, developed by Société Pour L’Aviation et ses Dérivés (SPAD) from the earlier highly successful SPAD S.VII. It was one of the most capable fighters of the war, and one of the most produced, with 8,472 built and orders for around 10,000 cancelled at the armistice.

The SPAD S.XIII first flew on April 4, 1917 with deliveries to the French Air Service starting in the next month. The new fighter played an important part in the French plans for its fighter force, being expected to replace the SPAD S.VII, as well as the few remaining Nieuport fighters in front line service. The S.XIII eventually equipped virtually every French fighter squadron. The S.XIII was of similar layout to the S.VII, and came with a single engine and was mainly of wooden construction with fabric covering. Armament was two Vickers machine guns with 400 rounds per gun, replacing the single gun of the earlier aircraft. It was faster than its main contemporaries – the British Sopwith Camel and the German Fokker D.VII. Its relatively higher power-to-weight ratio gave it a good rate of climb.

Specifications:

  • Role: Biplane fighter
  • National origin: France
  • Number built: 8,472
  • Crew: 1
  • Loaded weight: 1,888 lb
  • Powerplant: 1 x Hispano-Suiza 8Be 8-cylinder vee-type, 220 hp
  • Maximum speed: 135 mph at 6,560 ft
  • Range: 171 mi
  • Rate of climb: 384 ft/min
  • Armament: 2 x .303-cal Vickers machine guns or 2 x Marlin M1917 or M1918 machine guns

Additional information about this Brickmania custom building kit:

The SPAD S.XIII comes with the following features:

  • Built with camouflage colors used by the US 94th Aero Squadron on the Western Front in World War I.
  • Includes custom printed “Hat and Ring” Squadron tiles and premium vinyl sticker sheet depicting Captain Eddie Rickenbacker’s aircraft
  • Armed with two custom-molded Vickers Machine Guns from Brickarms
  • Custom printed World War I Allied Pilot minifigure
  • Contains 343 genuine LEGO® and BrickArms® elements
  • Intermediate Skill Level (4-6 years experience with LEGO is recommended)

New Release: Scroll Saw (Workshop Collection)

$

0

520-action-webcard-710

A scroll saw is a small electric or pedal-operated saw used to cut intricate curves in wood, metal, or other materials. The fineness of its blade allows it to cut more delicately than a power jigsaw, and more easily than a hand coping saw. Like those tools, it is capable of creating curves with edges, by pivoting its table. Scroll sawing is a popular hobby for many woodworkers. The tool allows a substantial amount of creativity and requires comparatively little space.

While somewhat similar to a band saw, a scroll saw uses a reciprocating blade rather than a continuous loop. The scroll saw’s blade can be removed and placed through a pre-drilled starting hole, allowing interior cutouts to be made without an entry slot. The majority of scroll saws offer a small light on a flexible arm that illuminates the work area and a dust blower nozzle to keep the work space clear while working. Variable-speed support allows even finer control over cuts when working with delicate materials or when making intricate cuts.

This kit has the following features:

  • Awesome scroll saw play action!
  • Can pretend it cuts actual wood!
  • Perfect for fine detail work!
  • A must have for any workshop owner or DIY enthusiast!
  • 1/35 scale to match other Brickmania models
  • Designed by Yitzy Kasowitz
  • Includes 13 LEGO® elements

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

2136-action-webcard-710

About the CMP FAT + 25 Pounder:

The CMP FAT, or Field Artillery Tractor, was an artillery tractor of the British and Commonwealth forces during WWII. CMP stood for Canadian Military Pattern, and was applied to a number of trucks and utility vehicles built in Canada that combined British design requirements with North American automotive engineering. As with other FATs, the CMP was usually used to tow either the 25-pounder howitzer or the 17-pounder anti-tank gun. A power winch was located above the rear axle for maneuvering the gun or unbogging the vehicle.

The first models were produced in 1940 and the body went through a number of design changes throughout the war. Post-war examples were supplied to Denmark who provided their own bodywork.

Specifications:

  • Weight: 10,880 pounds (empty), 13,200 pounds (gross)
  • Length: 14 feet 1 inch
  • Height: 8 feet

188-action-webcard-710

The Denison Smock is one of my favorite articles of clothing from WWII. I love how simple yet effective the camouflage pattern is. This is modeled after a 1st pattern smock, an earlier version, when the camouflage was actually painted by hand. This rudimentary process created the beautiful brushstrokes and blending you see in the pattern. Trying to capture that look was the hardest part of this design. Another element to note would be the face. We’ve used this face before on past minifigures, but this time I’ve added a camouflage pattern.

1st Pattern Denison Smock

Paratrooper Trousers

1937 Canvas Gaiters

Black Ammo Boots

This figure features:

  • Full wrap-around custom-printing (6-sided + head)
  • Flesh head with custom printing
  • British Pattern ’37 Vest (hard to find)
  • BrickArms B42 Stiletto knife

About the StuG III Ausf. G:

The StuG III Ausf. G is by far the most common of the StuG series, as it is the final variant produced of this line of tanks. Between December 1942 to April 1945 approximately 8,423 units were produced. 142 were built on the Panzer III Ausf. M chassis and 173 were converted from the Panzer III. The upper superstructure was widened, and welded boxes on either side removed. This increased the height to 2160 mm. In May 1943, side hull spaced armor plates were fitted to G models for added armor protection, particularly against Russian anti-tank rifles but were also useful against hollow-charge ammunition. A rotating cupola with periscopes was added for the commander.

The StuG III Ausf. G proved to be very successful in the line of assault guns and served on all fronts as tank destroyers as well. The StuG was cost-effective compared to the heavier German tanks, though in the anti-tank role they were best used defensively as the lack of a traversable turret was a severe disadvantage in the assault role. As the German military situation deteriorated later in the war, more StuG guns were built compared to tanks to replace losses and bolster defenses against the Allied forces. StuG IIIs were also exported into other nations including Finland, Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary, Italy, and Spain.

Specifications:

  • Type: Assault gun
  • Weight: 52,690 lbs (23.9 tons)
  • StuG III Units produced (all variants): 10,086
  • Crew: 4
  • Armor: 16-80 mm
  • Main armament: 1 x 7.5 cm StuK 40 L/48
  • Secondary Armament: 1 x 7.92 mm MG34 machine gun with 600 rounds
  • Engine: Maybach HL 120 TRM V-12 gasoline engine, driving six-speed transmission, 300 PS (296 hp)
  • Suspension: Torsion bar
  • Operational range: 96 mi
  • Maximum speed: 25 mph

bkmg003-microbrickbattle_cover

Micro Brick Battle™ is a fast-paced table top strategy game using 1:120 scale models built with LEGO® bricks. It is a turn-based game for two players (or teams) which continues until one side has completely destroyed the forces of the other (or otherwise completed an objective as set out in a given scenario). This book is intended to provide the basic rules for land-based armored combat. It also provides building instructions and game stats for many of the most commonly used armored vehicles of WWII.

Future expansions of the Micro Brick Battle system will include aerial combat, additional armored vehicles, and Campaign Modules for specific historic battles. We also plan to host Micro Brick Battle tournaments at events around the country starting in mid-2017. This will coincide with the release of our companion card game Bricks of War™, now in development process.

Aside from the basic game rules, the bulk of this book is devoted to building instructions for the basic game piece models. This includes a short section with tips for acquiring the necessary LEGO® pieces and building tips to help you complete your models. The composition of your Micro Brick Battle™ armies are completely up to you; whether you want to recreate historic battles or build an armored juggernaut of your own design. Brickmania will be releasing various game piece mini kits which will be compatible with the Micro Brick Battle system. These will have the added bonus of including the corresponding Bricks of War™ card, which will be necessary for use in the official tournament play.
