Mini-kit restocks coming!

2016-09-07 10.41.13.jpg

It shouldn’t come to much as a surprise to find that our popular Mortar with crate and shell and Pak 36 mini-kits are getting a restock! Look forward to getting these kits shortly through our website, or stopping by our retail locations and grabbing one… Or two!

The mortar has been an essential piece of artillery equipment since humans have built machines to lob projectiles at buildings, fortifications and—of course—other humans. 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 Land Rover WMIK:

The Land Rover WMIK (“Weapons Mount Installation Kit”) is a reconnaissance and close fire support vehicle used by the British and Dutch armed forces. It is based on the Land Rover Wolf, which is a heavy-duty military variant of the Land Rover Defender series of vehicles. The WMIK is a distant but direct descendant of the specialized Jeeps used by the SAS (Special Air Service) and LRDG (Long Range Desert Group) during World War II. The WMIK is typically armed with a .50 Caliber M2HB and 7.62mm machine gun and carries a crew of three. Variants of the WMIK may also mount a 40mm grenade launcher or Milan anti-tank missile system. WMIKs first saw military action during Operation Desert Storm and also served with peace-keeping troops in the Balkans. Post September 11, the WMIKs were also deployed during Operation Iraqi Freedom and in Afghanistan. The relative small size of the WMIK has advantages over larger vehicles, particularly in narrow urban streets. The disadvantage being limited armor protection for the crew against IEDs, such as those placed by Taliban fighters.

Additional information about this Brickmania custom building kit:

Brickmania’s Land Rover WMIK (Tan):

  • Three custom printed British Special Forces minifigures
  • Two exclusive prototype L-85 Rifles from BrickArms

About the DPV:

The DPV (Desert Patrol Vehicle) previously known as the FAV (Fast Attack Vehicle), is a lightly armored high-speed sand rail-type vehicle. Due to excellent acceleration and off-road mobility, the DPVs were extensively used in Operation Desert Storm, first seeing action in 1991. When Navy SEALs liberated Kuwait City, they drove in on DPVs.  The DPV’s rear-mounted air-cooled 200 hp engine enables it to accelerate from 0 to 30 mph in only four seconds and is able to travel at speeds of up to 80 mph. With a 21 gallon fuel tank, the DPV has a range of about 210 miles, which can be extended to over 1,000 miles with the addition of an optional fuel bladder.  It can carry a payload of 1500 lbs. The DPV armament includes 1 .50 cal M2 Browning, 2 M60s, and 2 M136 AT4 anti-armor weapons.  The M60s may be replaced with a MK19 grenade launcher.

New release: Renault FT – Camouflage

413-renault-social-media-710

The tank was developed during World War I to help defeat the bloody stalemate of trench warfare of the Western Front. The Renault FT was a light tank to be used in a breakthrough and exploitation role and was equipped with either a low-velocity artillery piece or machine gun. It’s two-man crew consisted of a driver and tank commander, who doubled as the tank’s gunner. Over 3000 FTs were built in France during World War I where it was successfully used by both French and American armored forces. A copy of the FT was manufactured in the USA under license and was standardized as the M1917. The American version can be easily distinguished by the location of the muffler to the left side of the hull, whereas the original French version had the muffler located on the right. The Renault FT has the distinction of setting the pattern for future tank development: fully tracked vehicle with engine located in the rear, and a single fully-rotating turret.

Restock: M-24 Chaffee

social-media

The Chaffee was a light tank introduced at the end of World War II to replace the worn out and under-gunned M3/M5 Stuart tank. The Chaffee first saw action against the German Ardennes offensive—known today as the Battle of the Bulge. Lightly armored and fast, the M24 was a nimble scout vehicle that was armed with the same 75mm gun as the M4 Sherman tank. The M24 Chaffee was retired from US service after the Korean War, being replaced by the M41 Walker Bulldog. Around the world, Chaffees have soldiered on in other armed services to modern times. During the Vietnam War, the South Vietnamese Army effectively fielded Chaffee tanks that were left behind when the French Colonial Army withdrew in the late 1950s.

About the T-72:

The T-72 is a Soviet second-generation battle tank that entered production in 1971. It came to fruition as a result of development into the T-64. In 1973, the first T-72 model “Ural” was pushed out of production. It came armed with a 125 mm smoothbore tank gun and an optical coincidence rangefinder. Later variants came with composite armor, fire control, and laser rangefinder systems. The T-72 “Ural” had an automatic loading system, eliminating the need for a dedicated crewmember.

While the T-72 was never used in the Afghanistan war, it was used primarily by the Russian Federation, with over 5,000 T-72 tanks in use. The T-72 has been actively used in Syria, Iraq, during the Chechen wars, and numerous other wars leading to present days. It is currently used in Northern Iraq offensive and the Ukraine conflicts. One of the best features of the T-72 is the attached 125 mm 2A46 series main gun, which is significantly larger than the standard 105 mm gun found in western MBTs. The gun shoots a “siren” two-plane electrohydraulic stabilizer, which allows automatic stabilization with speeds from .05-6 degrees per second.

Additional information about this Brickmania custom Lego® kit:

The T-72 “Ural” Main Battle Tank has the following features

During World War II it was supplied to the Soviet Army by the thousands, serving a similar role as the CCKW “Jimmy” for the American Army.

zis-3-restock-redoctober-560

 

Restock: Zis-3

The ZiS-3 76mm Field Gun (Officially designated M1942 Divisional Gun) was the most common medium artillery piece used by the Soviet Union during the Great Patriotic War. Due to the innovated addition of the massive muzzle brake, pre-war 76mm gun barrels could be mated to the light weight ZiS-2 anti-tank gun carriage. This created a compact, mobile, inexpensive, versatile and easy to produce artillery piece that was called, “A masterpiece of artillery systems design.” by Joseph Stalin. The ZiS-3 gun was the main armament used for the Su-76 self-propelled gun. Most ZiS-3 guns were withdrawn from the Red Army after World War II and were later supplied to satellite states. The ZiS-3 was used by communist forces in both the Korean and Vietnam wars.

su-152-restock-redoctober-560

Restock: SU-152

The SU-152 was a frankenstein’s monster of WWII. In the original design, the Soviets mounted a 152mm Howitzer on the chassis of the KV-1S tank. In later production runs the IS tank chassis was used and the design was redesignated as the ISU-152. The SU-152 found itself in the role of impromptu heavy tank destroyer and rose admirably to the task. It was capable of knocking out the heaviest German armored vehicles. Tigers, Panthers and Elefant tank destroyers all met their doom at the business end of the SU-152. This proficiency earned it the name Zveroboy or “Beast Slayer”.  Although not designed for the role, the SU-152 proved to be a cheap, widely produced and effective heavy tank killer, second only to the SU-100 as an antitank vehicle, as well as highly successful at its intended role against infantry and fortifications. In combat, it was used for two distinct purposes: long-range artillery fire support during assaults by suppressing infantry and destroying pillboxes and AT guns, and as ersatz heavy tank destroyers (usually in ambush).  The SU-152 was produced in large numbers throughout 1943, with the first SU-152s being issued to new heavy mechanized gun regiments raised in May 1943. The first regiment arrived at Kursk with only twelve guns, and was brought up to its full strength of twenty-one guns during the fighting.

m3a1-scout-car-restock-redoctober-560

Restock: M3A1 Scout Car

The M3 series of armored cars was used in various theaters during WWII. The A1 class was used as a scout car for the US Army in the North African campaigns. It also saw combat use during the invasion of Sicily, as well as in Normandy. In addition to it’s use as a scouting vehicle, the M3A1 was also used as an ambulance, a gun tractor, as well as a vehicle for command and patrolling.

The M3A1’s design differed from it’s predecessor, the M3, in the way of a bigger hull. The Scout Car was capable of carrying up to seven infantrymen, and provide fire support through the use of one .50 caliber and up to two .30 caliber machine guns. It was equipped with an unditching roller, full-time 4WD, and power brakes, which were unusual for the period. The hull was protected with two armored plates ranging from .25 to .51 inches in thickness. While the leaf-spring suspension prevented these vehicles from being fully off road, they saw plenty of action in the Tunisia, and they were proven to be effective scouting vehicles during that time.
