A few of you have already caught these on Flickr but we wanted to formally announce some new goodies. Keep in mind most of these are limited edition runs and will most likely not be regularly restocked once they run out.

Get Ready to Rock

admin — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 22:42:07 +0000

Mini instruments from BrickForge are here! Bring down the house by creating your own minifig rock band. Both the Acoustic and Electric Guitar feature a 1.5mm half-round neck and rear connection point so your guitarist can tap and thrash all night long. The Violin features similar components and works well with a string quartet or fiddling on a roof. A set of Drumsticks round out the set – giving your drummer some tokens to toss into the crowd at the end of the show. Don’t forget to place a few of our Microphones at center stage before raising the curtain. It’s going to be a great show! Additional colors available soon.

Hero of the Forest

Beware evil beings! The Enchanted Forest has a new protector: The Centaur. Whether considered beast or being these unique creatures are both skilled warriors and diviners of magic. Conforming to official standards the Centaur piece allows you to add your own minifig body parts to create your own ancient folk hero. Additional connection points allow for equipment storage or seating for a bold equestrian.

Also check out the Recurve Bow – the perfect weapon for your Centaur clan. The unique shape takes physics to the next level by utilizing composite materials and a unique double-rounded shape. The additional curves store more energy than an equivalent straight-limbed bow, potentially giving a greater amount of cast to the arrow. Such a design permits a shorter, compact bow – ideal for traveling through thick forest terrain.

Family Fun Month @ Enon Library

admin — Tue, 03 Aug 2010 00:55:03 +0000

BrickForge was asked to supply some eye candy for this month’s theme at the Enon branch of the Clark Country Library; owner, Kyle Peterson was only too happy to oblige. “Enon (located outside Springfield, OH) is usually portrayed as a small sleepy town, but there’s actually quite a bit going on here. The library is abuzz with eager readers and with Family Fun Month kicking off it was a perfect time to outfit the display with LEGO and a few BrickForge custom minifig accessories”. If you’re local why not swing in and check out what’s behind the glass – sharp eyes may catch a glimpse of a few unseen BF prototypes. And if you don’t already have a library card, be sure to sign up – its easy and only takes a few minutes.

BrickForge Goes to Camp

admin — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 02:11:29 +0000

BrickForge participated in the Mini-Summer LEGO Camp this year by providing campers with a variety of sample packs to toy around with. Located in Washington state the themes for this year’s camp were ‘Building Through Time’ and ‘Critter Creations’. As you can see the kids had a great time integrating our custom accessories into their MOCs and custom minifigs. The camp is run by an avid AFOL and does not have any affiliation with The LEGO Group.
