I was roaming the internets today and happened upon this excellent website. Google Image Result for http://www.brickmania.com/Gallery2/war/WespeText.jpg They have some very interesting things wrought in lego, especially WW2 Vehicles. My favorite's their "Wolverine"... which actually looks a lot more like a Jackson... http://www.brickmania.com/Gallery2/war/Wolverine.jpg ...And the Panzer IV with skirt armor! http://www.brickmania.com/Gallery2/war/mk43.jpg
Looks awesome! I'd love those. Lego just released a new series of kits to go along with Indiana Jones 4's release. The kits include a German truck, Kubelwagons, and a motorcycle with and without a sidecar. They looks pretty cool too, and are more readily available. Still, I'd love to have a Tiger in lego!
You can actually get them on ebay....super expensive when you can find them. My son has so many legos, he usually just creates his own and uses computer label paper to create uniforms for the lego-guys. when you got enough legos, you can build just about anything! Lisa
I recently purchased the Messerschmitt BF 109-K from Brickmania while at a brickfair near where I live. Its a neat little model - its definitely expensive for the size/amount of pieces, but that is understandble in these custom sets. I think I'd like to find a good lego Tiger Tank model, so I can create a 'Kelly's Heroes' set.
Naturally you may call yourself what ever you prefer to, but just FYI: Mannerheim, although a "baron" (lit. vapaaherra / "a Free Lord" in Finland) and a nobelman, was not a von. The forename he used was Gustav, so he was either Mannerheim, Gustav Mannerheim, Carl Gustav Emil Mannerheim or C.G.E. Mannerheim.
Despite being 17 years old, I am still really into Legos [don't judge me. It's hard to get out old 'hobbies' from your childhood ;-).] Looking at this makes me go crazy in a "nerdy about Lego sort of way."
