March 16, 201212 yr The sheer quality of BA always amazes me. So much detail and care put into the designs, it makes me really want BA to make SW stuff.
March 16, 201212 yr Nice, I like the artillery shells and launcher. Now if only they would release the Cricket Bat in tan without the need to buy an expensive pack or figure :( (I need at least 4 cricket bats for the project I want to build with em, possibly more)
March 16, 201212 yr I really like the modular design of the new big stuff (this MAAWS and the Minigun) because it gives me even more parts and options for building with.
March 16, 201212 yr Wonderful weapons packs and AWESOME launcher with shells.....brick-built heat ! Chain gun and build-a-ammobelt ! If only those clips of ammo were longer.....ammo for chain gun on a A-10 ! Edited March 16, 201212 yr by Rufus Merged double post
March 17, 201212 yr This new installment is too cool! The fact that you can load the round is beyond cool. Too bad LEGO doesn't make trans clear bars so you can recreate the picture with the "shooting" round but has a red bar. Nice work, Brick Arms!
March 17, 201212 yr Exciting new stuff! I got to admit that the new pack for the Modern Combat is very good, especially when it includes the latest designs of the M16 variants. The new minigun colour scheme is definitely better than before!
March 18, 201212 yr Author it makes me really want BA to make SW stuff. That's something Will has often heard from builders, and while it's still in the development process (with several SW-inspired items at the prototype stage), certainly a possibility for the future! Now if only they would release the Cricket Bat in tan without the need to buy an expensive pack or figure :( (I need at least 4 cricket bats for the project I want to build with em, possibly more) Definitely appreciated your interest in the Cricket Bat, but unfortunately, I'm currently unaware of any plans Will might have to run the mold containing the Cricket Bat cavities in Tan again and the entire initial run has been used for figure and packs. Again, another possibility for the future. This new installment is too cool! The fact that you can load the round is beyond cool. Too bad LEGO doesn't make trans clear bars so you can recreate the picture with the "shooting" round but has a red bar. One alternate way of getting a "firing" pose: the LEGO ice cream scoop!
March 19, 201212 yr Wow. I am really impressed! The new launcher is really nicely designed. I like how the shell is same thickness as a Technic pin. Will you be releasing the launcher in different colours? I would love to see a tan one. As for the packs, they are awesome, as always! I might just have to make my first BA order if I have a need for custom weapons!
March 27, 201212 yr These are nice packs and weapons and all, but I don't think brickarms are realeasing enough of their prototypes! I mean, you try your best, but the prototypes list is absolutely flooded! I hope to see the u scope, the other m16 variants and more soon.
March 29, 201212 yr I've been planning on making a fairly large Brickarms order in the relatively near future (I need MOAR U-clips and monopods), and I think I'll add a few MAWS to the order just for the shells! They would be a perfect fit for those custom 76 mm field pieces I showed you last year at Brick Fair.
