BrickArms News and Notes

[the enigma that is badger]

Just a quick heads up that Will recently released three new edged weapons Castle builders might find particularly useful: the Havoc Blade, Killstrike Saber, and Kukri knife:



The three accessories are now available from some official BrickArms resellers in advance of a full worldwide release.

Yes those are nice
Have one Kukri prototype and it is awesome, now I can get more

[Mark of Falworth]

Very cool to hear that! Will these be at BFVA 2013?

Will these be at BFVA 2013?

I'm pretty sure Dan Siskind should have them ready and waiting at the Brickmania booth!

BrickArms: Do you guys still have Halberds in stock? I will be attending BrickFair Va and might be interested in purchasing a few. I didn't see them on the website, does that mean you don't have any left?

As far as I'm aware (I am no longer am the official BrickArms spokesman, so I can't speak on behalf of Will) the BrickArms Halberd is still at the prototype stage of development and has never been commercially available. Still, some prototypes have been offered for sale as special boutique items online and at LEGO events.

What I'd recommend: you contact Will directly (salesATbrickarms.com) and ask if he could have a few available for you to purchase at Brickfair. I know he's uber busy right now preparing for the event, but no harm in asking politely with the understanding he might have to say that's something he just doesn't have time to do.

Those killstrikes look mighty fine for Elvish blades. I guess I'll have to pick a few up... among other things.

Just a quick note that folks contributing to the Castle display at BrickCon 2013 will receive one of these crates from Will:



The "all black" theme was requested by Josh as a nod to the classic black sword in set 6041.

Oh man, I wish I was near BrickCon.....


Do you go to BrickWorld?

[Aeridian]

Ooooh boy! Those look yummy! Wish they were in gunmetal though... But I guess it doesn't really matter since I won't be going anyway.

[SSchmidt]

I don't guess any of those "black crates" will go on sale after Brickcon, eh? I wish I was able to go and participate, man those are awesome!

Unfortunately, no, these are just fun gifts for the Castle folks at BrickCon. Sorry!

Wow, it has been awhile, hasn't it?! Here is the Castle Contributor pack Will put together for the folks at BrickCon 2016 which includes a few brand new production BrickArms blades that will soon be released:
