meschepers Posted November 7, 2007 I hope this is the right place to post this, but here goes... I recently bought about $30 worth of Brickforge items. They haven't arrived yet and I was hoping someone could tell me about the quality of the items. They look pretty high quality on their website and I am just looking to confirm this. Thanks!

Hinckley Posted November 7, 2007 I moved it to the BST&F forum, which is usually where custom shops are discussed. :-) I love Brickforge store and I've met the guy at BrickWorld 2007 in Chicago. He's pretty cool! *sweet* *y* I order from him about once a month and the quality is phenomenal. I advertise for him on my site for nothing because I think his stuff is that fun and well built. I highly recommend his stuff to anyone and think you'll enjoy your stuff a lot. Brickforge.com He's also an EB member. Look around for Armothe and see a preview of some not-HALO helmets here.

tedbeard Posted November 8, 2007 ...I was hoping someone could tell me about the quality of the items.Very good quality. The cows are built with components that are a hair thinner than the LEGO horses/gryphons/etc but I would say all the components that I have ever bought (amour, weapons, animals, beards) are nearly LEGO-quality (and in some cases equal.) I was delighted with my order and will order more accessories as they introduce new elements or my farm expands. *sweet* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meschepers Posted November 8, 2007 Thanks guys. I figured they were good quality, this just eases my mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tanotrooper Posted November 9, 2007 a very friendly seller, but I noticed these things at some of the items: -dark grey military helmets are a bit see-through at the side -military helmets mostly dont come off easy of heads Still, I'm really looking forward to those Roman items *wub* TT Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meschepers Posted November 9, 2007 Roman would be cool. But I think that this is the closest thing we are going to get for a while. The first batch of items I ordered should be here any day now... I am so excited. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Armothe Posted November 14, 2007 Thanks for all the support guys! Being huge LEGO fans ourselves, RedBean and I have pretty high standards when it comes to making plastic accessories. Of course we are always learning how to do things better so improvements are a natural part of our growth. When we first parterned up and began selling our custom accessories 70% of our orders came from the US (where I am). Almost two years later 70% of our orders are international so it's always nice to hear when orders reach their destination. Even more nice when the customer is satisfied! Because our subscriber base has grown to well over 1000 members we are starting up a BrickForge Google Group Newsletter that will allow the community to keep better tabs on stock status, new colors, promotions and sneak peeks into our latest projects. This is a free e-mail based newsletter that goes out about once a month - you can subscribe and unsubscribe as you like. You can go to the NEWSLETTER section of our site to find out how to subscribe or just visit the group here: http://groups.google.com/group/brickforge -A Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
