338-Action-Webcard-710

Translating to “marksman” or “sharpshooter”, the Italian Bersaglieri were some of Italy’s finest troops. Deployed in Greece, North Africa, and the Soviet Union, the Bersaglieri were known for the distinctive black plumage on their helmets. The Bersaglieri have an excellent combat history in both world wars.

The WWII Italian Bersaglieri has artwork based on M1891 ammo pouches, M40 Sahariani Tropical Tunic, puttees, black plumage, and canteen.

This WWII Italian Bersaglieri features exclusive custom-printed artwork designed by Lando.

The A27M “Cromwell” Cruiser Tank, named for English Civil War leader Oliver Cromwell, was the first tank put into service by the British to combining a dual-purpose gun, reliable Meteor engine, and reasonable armor in a balanced package. The Cromwell first saw action in the Battle of Normandy in June 1944. The tank equipped the armored reconnaissance regiments of the Royal Armored Corps (part of the Royal Tank Regiment), within the 7th, 11th and Guards Armored Divisions. The Cromwell IV was the most numerous variant with over 1,935 units produced. It was not uncommon for this variant to be modified into an observation post, fitting the tank with two No. 19 and two No. 38 portable radios. There are currently at least twenty-five Cromwell IV’s that survive in running condition.

About the Messerschmitt Me-262 Swallow:

The Messerschmitt Me 262 was the world’s first operational jet-powered fighter aircraft. The Me 262 was faster and more heavily armed than the Allied fighter, including the British jet-powered Gloster Meteor. The Me 262’s roles included light bomber, reconnaissance and experimental night fighter versions. Me 262 pilots claimed a total of 542 Allied kills, although higher claims are sometimes made.

The Allies countered its potential effectiveness in the air by attacking the aircraft on the ground and during takeoff and landing. While German use of the aircraft ended with their surrender in May 1945, a small number were operated by the Czechoslovak Air Force until 1951. Captured Me 262s were studied and flight tested by the major powers, ultimately influencing the designs of several post-war aircraft such as the North American F-86 Sabre and Boeing B-47 Stratojet. A number of aircraft have survived on display in museums and enthusiasts maintain privately-built flying reproductions that use the modern J-85 jet engine.

About the Field Bastions:

The Field Bastion is a modern gabion, with the primary use being for flood control and military fortifications. They are made up of a collapsible wire mesh container and a heavy-duty fabric liner. Basic assembly requires unfolding and filling them with sand, soil, or gravel using a front-end loader. Much like a sandbag barrier, the placement is simple. One of the advantages of a Field Bastion barrier is the quick and easy setup. They are often used as a semi-permanent levee or blast wall against explosions or small arms. Recent uses of Field Bastions include areas of heavy conflict like Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as civilian use in flood control during Hurricane Katrina. Secure your minifigure base today with Brickmania Field Bastions.

Each pre-built Field Bastion includes unique printing on all four sides, including one with battle damage. Combine multiple Field Bastions to create detailed base fortifications and defensive walls. Printed artwork is based on the HESCO® Bastion.

Additional information about this Brickmania custom building kit:

The Field Bastions kit comes with the following features:

  • 1/35 scale to match other Brickmania models
  • Pre-built with custom-printed LEGO elements

New Release: Pioneer 10 – American Space Probe

About Pioneer 10 – American Space Probe:

Beginning with the first satellite launch with Sputnik in 1957, the next fifteen years proved remarkable for space exploration. The United States put astronauts on the moon in 1969 with Apollo 11. Pioneer 10 marked the first attempt by humanity to send a probe beyond the Asteroid Belt, a region of our solar system that exists between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. This incredible journey sent Pioneer 10 to chart Jupiter, making it the first probe to collect data on the giant planet. This data proved crucial to future missions. The space probe continued its mission for several years, exploring the outer solar system.

Aside from exploring this region of space, Pioneer 10 contained a special plaque. This plaque is made with gold-anodized aluminum and has some unique images etched into it. The plaque was designed by famed astronomer Carl Sagan and Frank Drake, the founder of SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) and author of the Drake Equation. In an attempt to make it intelligible to extraterrestrials, the measurement system was represented as a hydrogen atom (the most abundant element in the universe) in two different energy states. These are assigned to the binary number 1, which is indicated by a small tick mark. This serves as the standard system of measurement on the plaque. Among the images using this measurement: two adult humans, a map of our solar system, and our Sun’s relative position to distant quasars and the center of the Milky Way galaxy at the time of launch.

Specifications:

  • Current Speed: 27,000 mph (43,452 km/h)
  • Distance from Earth: 120.32 AU (“astronomical distance”, 1 AU is equivalent to 93 million miles)
  • Instruments: Eleven different measurement tools, including Plasma Analyzer, Cosmic Ray Telescope, and Geiger Tube Telescope
  • Propulsion device: Hydrazine thrusters
  • Power plant: Thermoelectric generators

Additional information about this Brickmania custom building kit:

The Pioneer 10 – American Space Probe kit comes with the following features

  • One custom-printed Astrophysicist minifigure
  • High-quality sticker sheet featuring special instruments and plaque
  • Stand to pose space probe in various positions
  • Designed by Jesse Mohler
  • Includes 107 genuine new-condition LEGO® elements
  • 1/35 scale to match other Brickmania models
  • Intermediate Skill Level (2-4 years of experience with LEGO is recommended)

New Release: X-15 Rocket Plane

About the X-15 Rocket Plane:

In a joint project between NASA and the United States Air Force, the X-15 program was intended to provide high speed flight research. Much of this research was used in the design of both modern-day fighter jets and by the American space program in building its spacecraft. Data collected helped NASA build better launch vehicles in programs ranging from Mercury to the Space Shuttle.

The X-15 project lasted nearly ten years. In this time, 199 flight missions were conducted. Due to the high fuel consumption during the test flights, the X-15 was launched from a “mothership”, which was a B-52. The rocket plane deployed when the B-52 reached 500 mph and the X-15 burned its engines for 80-120 seconds, propelling the craft to extremely high speeds and altitudes. The X-15 holds the unofficial records for both speed and altitude: 4,520 mph (Mach 6.7) and 354,200 feet.

Specifications:

  • Crew: 1
  • Engine: Thiokol XLR-99 throttleable rocket
  • Fuel: anhydrous ammonia and liquid oxygen
  • Speed: 4,520 mph (7,274 km/h)

About the Panzer I:

The Panzer I was a light tank produced in Germany in the 1930s. Design started in 1932 and mass production began in 1934. Intended only as a training tank to introduce the concept of armored warfare to the German Army, the Panzer I saw combat in Spain during the Spanish Civil War. The Panzer I would also see action in Poland, France, and the Soviet Union and North Africa during World War II. By 1942, the Panzer I chassis design was used as the basis of tank destroyers and assault guns.

The Panzer I’s performance in combat was limited by its thin armor and light armament of two machine guns. The Panzer I was unable to engage in effective combat, struggling against vehicles such as the Soviet T-23. Since they were obsolete from their introduction, the Panzer I chassis was adapted as tank destroyers and other variants.

Specifications:

  • Weight: 5.4 tons
  • Crew: 2 (commander and driver)
  • Armor: 7-13 mm
  • Main armament: 2 x 7.92 mm MG13 machine guns
  • Engine: Krupp M 305 four-cylinder air-cooled gasoline engine
  • Operational range: 120 mi on road, 109 mi off road
  • Speed: 31 mph on road, 23 mph off road

Additional information about this Brickmania custom building kit:

The Panzer I comes with the following features:
