Restock: Mark A “Whippet”– WWI Medium Tank

About the Mark A “Whippet” – WWI Medium Tank:

Eight miles per hour may not sound fast, but the Medium Tank Mk A “Whippet” was the fastest tank on the field in 1917. Armed with three to four Hotchkiss machine guns and manned by a crew of three, the Whippet presented a new opportunity for Allied forces to break through the stalemate that had plagued military commanders for several years.

Much like other tanks during the Great War, the Whippet was primitive in design. Each tread had its own engine, which required the driver to perform a complicated juggling act of operating two clutch pedals at the same time. The tank would often fill with fumes from the engine, requiring the crew to wear gas masks. Tanks often broke down, forcing their crews to abandon the vehicle and making them easy targets for German field guns.

Nonetheless, the tank performed well in wreaking havoc behind enemy lines. One such example was a Whippet named “Musical Box”, commanded by Lieutenant C. B. Arnold. Arnold took his Whippet behind German lines and went on a nine-hour rampage, harassing supply vehicles and attacking groups of retreating infantry. The positioning of the machine guns allowed the Whippet to engage enemy troops from almost all angles. The lack of effective anti-tank weapons made destroying these tanks difficult for the Germans.

The kit features an early war red-and-white pattern. The WWI British Tanker minifigure features an odd-looking chain-mail mask. This medieval-style mask helped protect the crew from flying, red-hot shrapnel caused by enemy machine gun fire.

Specifications:

  • Crew: 3 or 4
  • Weight: 14 tons
  • Engine: two 45-hp Tylor four-cylinder petrol
  • Maximum speed: 8.3 mph (13.4 km/h)

The bridge is the nerve center of any interstellar ship, providing the captain and officers with control over the craft. In a mission of exploration, a split-second decision could mean the difference between life and death for the ship and its crew.

This placement also allows the captain a clear view of the main viewscreen at the front of the bridge.

Restock: M1 81mm Mortar Pack

2012-Action-Webcard-710

The mortar has been an essential piece of artillery equipment in combat situations. The use of indirect fire provides support to advancing troops. As warfare has become more fluid and mobile, the need for squad-portable mobile artillery increased dramatically. In the early 20th century this technology evolved into what we commonly know as the modern mortar. This generally consists of a small rocket-propelled explosive projectile, a launch tube, support base, and aiming bipod.

Brickmania is pleased to introduce an all-new deluxe mortar pack, containing our previously released heavy mortar, plus a custom printed BrickArms crate (printed same on both sides) and prototype BrickArms mortar shell.

Additional information about this Brickmania custom Lego® kit:

  • Mortar is posable, with a range of elevation.
  • Mortar breaks down and can fit in the packing crate
  • BrickArms crate is custom printed especially for this kit
  • Black mortar shell is small-batch injected by Will from BrickArms
  • 1/35 scale matches other Brickmania models
  • The over-all color scheme of this model is dark gray
  • Includes 13 LEGO and BrickArms elements

About the A-10 Warthog:

The A-10 is the United States Air Force’s premier close-air-support ground attack aircraft. Postwar analysis of the Vietnam conflict showed a severe shortage of modern close-support aircraft is the US inventory. The A-10 was built around the lethal GAU-8 “Avenger” 30mm gatling gun, which was specifically designed as an airborne tank-killing weapon. The A-10 incorporates many other design features that help make this one of the most potent ground attack aircraft of all time. These include a titanium armored “bathtub” for the pilot, multiple redundancies to flight control mechanisms, fuel efficient turbofan for prolonged loitering in the battle zone, and a huge 16,000 pound bomb load (more than twice the capacity as the WWII era B-17 Flying Fortress). The A-10s was designed primarily in the anti-tank role.

It wasn’t until Operation Desert Storm that the A-10 saw its first combat missions. The A-10 was credited with destroying more than 4100 Iraqi vehicles and artillery pieces. The A-10 also saw service in the Balkans conflict, Operation Iraqi Freedom, and the war in Afghanistan. A plan to retire the A-10 fleet has been permanently postponed by the Air Force until a suitable replacement is available.

Brickmania’s A-10 Warthog was designed by Daniel Siskind and follows the same tough design philosophy as the original aircraft. The model is big, but durable, and has a lot of cool play features. These include moveable flaps and airbrakes, opening canopy, and folding landing gear. Brickmania designers Yitzy Kasowitz and Cody Osell each contributed small refinements to the model (like a functional “Ejection Seat”), as well as creating a whole host of extra armaments and the JS-1 bomb loader, for which instructions are provided (sorry, you’ll have to dig up the parts for these optional extras).

Additional information about this Brickmania custom Lego® kit:

The A-10 Warthog kit has the following features:

  • Vinyl sticker sheet
  • Includes pilot minifig
  • Sturdy construction for active play
  • 1/35 scale to match other Brickmania models.
  • Includes 1032 genuine new-condition LEGO and BrickArms elements
  • Huge printed instruction book contains bonus instructions for external ordnance and JS-1 Bomb Lifter.
  • Advanced Skill Level (6-8 years experience with LEGO is recommended)

All Brickmania model kits are made of new-condition elements from LEGO and BrickArms. This model comes disassembled, includes printed building instructions, and comes packaged in a sealed box. Assembly required.

A-10 kit includes parts for the main model, plus bonus instructions for external ordnance and JS-1 Bomb Lifter.

2001-Pak-Action-Webcard-710

The PaK 36 3.7cm Anti-Tank gun was the standard anti-tank weapon used by the German Army at the beginning of World War II. Its low profile and high velocity, armor-piercing shell made this the ideal weapon for knocking out just about anything on the battlefield. Developments in Soviet armor would make this gun obsolete within the first year of the war in Russia.

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
  • Sophomore skill level (2-4 years of experience recommended)

About the M1025 HMMWV – 4×4 Utility Vehicle with M2HB Machine Gun:

The Humvee is among the iconic vehicles of military history. Designed for maximum utility, its fifteen configurations (cargo/troop carriers, weapon carriers, ambulances, and shelter carriers) share a common engine, chassis and transmission with 44 interchangeable parts. The need for fewer parts cuts down on the training necessary for maintenance and operation. The Humvee is among the most reliable military vehicles ever produced.

The Humvee’s low profile and wide stance helps it to hug the road and prevents the vehicle from being flipped over in combat. In addition, the aluminum body reduces weight and provides resistance to corrosion. The vehicle can be fitted to seat two to four soldiers.

Specifications:

  • Crew: 1 + 3
  • Units built: 281,000
  • Engine: V8 diesel or V8 turbo diesel
  • Speed: 55 mph at max gross weight; over 70 mph top speed
