Glow in the Dark, Trans Neon Green & Trans Clear

BrickForge is proud to introduce a few of our flagship products in three new colors!

Trans Neon Green – sometimes called ‘antifreeze’ by enthusiasts is what the child of Trans Yellow and Trans Green might look like if they shared a milkshake. If you are at all familiar with this color then you’ll want to head to your favorite novelty store and pickup some Blacklight Bulbs. Snatch up the Phaser & Power Blade while we pound out the details on a few other items (coming soon).

Glow in the Dark is also a must have since you’ll now be able to locate your favorite minifigs even after the lights go out. This color matches the official Trans Glow in the Dark color and after a minute under bright light is certain to radiate a pale-green hue for quite some time. Preview the Power Blade & Phaser as we continue to release other items in this color.

Trans Clear turns our Roman Military Shield into a pretty cool riot shield. Choose from regular Trans Clear and apply your own decals, or pickup our custom screen-printed POLICE shield and equip your service men and women accordingly. Bundle with our Nightstick and Military Helmet if the crowd starts going wild.

Keep an eye out for other products in these colors coming soon.

New Products from Brickforge

A few weeks ago we gave you a glimpse of a new color by releasing a Medium Blue Beret and Military Helmet for a limited time. We are pleased to see them return - along with several other products! Of special note is the screen-printed UN Helmet and Special Forces Beret. Jellybean Knights? - giv'em some matching accessories. Overall, a vibrant, new color to outfit your minifig creations.

Dark Green accessories allow you to expand your fleet of Scooters, launch a special forces invasion or fill up your forest with even more mushrooms.

We are pleased to expand our line of magical items by featuring Trans Red which is ideal for summoning creatures of every kind to fight by your side. Also, be sure to check out the plumes and Space Marine Visor in Trans Red as well.

Fraudulent Emails from BrickForge

It has come to my attention that someone is spoofing our e-mail and website in hopes of obtaining your PayPal login credentials. No actual order has been placed w/ BrickForge. The best thing to do is ignore the e-mail and most certainly do NOT click on Cancel Order - its a trick to get your PayPal login credentials. If you want to verify actually go to https://www.paypal.com and login to see if such a Transaction ID exists. If you did click on Cancel Order I suggest you IMMEDIATELY call PayPal and alert them that your credentials may have been stolen. They will check for suspicious IP logins and change your password.
