Dragonator Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 (edited) Once again, the Mad duo are back to do something less Mad, a review! Today we are going to be, um, Unofficial BrickArms Promoters. Hope nobody high and powerful minds... Anyway, today we are going to review for you most of the new BrickArms Weapons, with insightful comments from me and some added... talk from iamded. That's right! I talk! To start with, here is an overview of my humble collection, with invited guests, iamded and co. Apologies in advance for some of the bad photo's, the lighting here is terrible! We wont review every individual weapon, but you get the idea. Note it's not d's entire collection, 5 of those weapons are mine. Yes, that is right. The five weapons that are iamded's are the ones his men are holding. Who figured? That's the President of New Brickia there, with his two bodyguards. Hooray for Blue Team! On to the review: The Sci-Fi Weapons Pack. Oh how beautiful. And in silver too! The stun grenades are tiny, smaller than they first look, and the normal grenades look great in silver! That's the great thing about this one, silver weapons were previously only available as a possible colour for your free bonus weapon, and it could be any weapon. This pack gives you these great new (and some great old) weapons, all in silver! It's fantastic! They are, of course, minifig compatible! These look great in any minifigs hands. Thanks to ImperialScouts and Random Forest man for helping show off these fabulous weapons. Look at the tiny stun grenade! The silver sniper rifle looks great, although not good if you don't want to be spotted... Don't I make a great Halo guy? No comment... The Briefcase Uzi! Just what any mobster needs. The extra clip is good for display purposes, although it can't be attached to the actual weapon. Edited April 23, 2008 by dragonator Quote

PSPguy Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Did they come in the usual yellow/orange package or did they come in a box? Quote
Dragonator Posted April 24, 2008 Author Posted April 24, 2008 Nice figs, it seems I'm not worthy enough to be your friend.

Although they do look good in black too. Thanks for that interesting review, my favorite´s of course that cool SCI-FI Weapons-pack, although I have to saythat I prefer them in old fashioned classic black.... Agreed, thanks for the comment!

ExoBuilder Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Stop attention seeking! You will be included when you are deemed worthy. Or when I get your torso... I can't help it, I feel neglected by you Quote
PSPguy Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 It came in the usual yellow package. How did Will fit all that in there? Was it completely filled? Or was it bigger version of the package? Quote
Lord Of Pies Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 (edited) A fine review, I might just have to buy some now for my lego nazi army and soon to be soviet one! Thanks! Edit: Yay I just bought my first brickarms weapons, thanks to this review! Edited April 24, 2008 by Lord Of Pies Quote
Dragonator Posted April 24, 2008 Author Posted April 24, 2008 How did Will fit all that in there? Was it completely filled? Or was it bigger version of the package? Sorry, this all came in three orders. So it fit fine. Maybe I should makw a huge order just to see how he packages it... A fine review, I might just have to buy some now for my lego nazi army and soon to be soviet one! Thanks! Edit: Yay I just bought my first brickarms weapons, thanks to this review! Yes, buy them, buy as many as you can! Cause they're great! Unofficial BrickArms Promotion ON! Quote
Lord Of Pies Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 I bought £6 worth of brickarms weapons, which is enough for my small army at the moment. Quote
Stauder Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 Great review, especialy because it has that cool red & black guy Very nice armament you got there... Your in the EN right? Otherwise you need a form, and a stamp of approval and a... Staudie. Quote
Capn Frank Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 Thanx for the great review dragonator! I'll have to pick up the sci-fi in my next purchase. Frankly I think they look cr@p. I mean, brown really doesn't fit the more advanced weapons, like, well, see for yourself. I got the Halo Assault Rifle in brown and i really like it. To me it looks a lot like a camo'ed weapon. Quote
Dragonator Posted May 2, 2008 Author Posted May 2, 2008 Thanx for the great review dragonator! I'll have to pick up the sci-fi in my next purchase. I got the Halo Assault Rifle in brown and i really like it. To me it looks a lot like a camo'ed weapon. Thanks for looking! The brown colour isn't to bad, I just don't think that it suits the other weapons as well as black and silver etc. iamded just decided to put it bluntly. Have fun with your weapons, and go buy the Sci-Fi Weapons pack now! Quote
Wout Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 Thank you for the nice review. I don't think I will buy them, but the original weapon on the indiana Jones car looks good. Quote
The Bricksmith Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 I just ordered the complete weapons pack along with some other extra weapons because of this great review. How about one of Brickforge? Quote
the enigma that is badger Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 How about one of Brickforge? I'd recommend holding off on that one for a bit as there are rumblings that Armothe and Red Bean have big plans for Brickforge in the coming months: *Pic posted by Armothe in this thread on Classic-Castle* badger Quote
Dragonator Posted May 4, 2008 Author Posted May 4, 2008 Wow, thanks for that badger! That looks great! I can't wait for them to put them out. I'll do a review when the new stuff comes, I'm waiting for them to get some more black cows (bulls) in before I make my next order anyway. Quote
Dragonator Posted May 11, 2008 Author Posted May 11, 2008 In a shameless act of double posting, I have found a great picture that shows an awesome use of the brown weapons. Looks like they could come in handy after all. Isn't that just great? The moral of this story is: don't be too quick to judge. Quote
Captain Cavinano Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 Cool! I saw a gun of Halo! How can you make these gun? I'd recommend holding off on that one for a bit as there are rumblings that Armothe and Red Bean have big plans for Brickforge in the coming months: *Pic posted by Armothe in this thread on Classic-Castle* badger How can you make this Roman soilder?

the enigma that is badger Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 Cool! I saw a gun of Halo! How can you make these gun? You're referring to the BA-M5 and BA-M6. Keep in mind, while they were inspired by weaponry from other media, the designs of those particular minifig accessories are solely the creation of Will Chapman and therefore represent his intellectual property. If by "how" you mean "How are they produced?" see this page on the BrickArms website. How can you make this Roman soilder? As that's an upcoming accessory from BrickForge, you'd have to ask Armothe. However, based on my knowledge of molding, I'd say your standard injection molding with some core-cavity molding for the helmet. As for intellectual property issues, I don't think the Roman Empire is that litigious anymore Hope that answers your questions! badger Quote
