Brick Warriors – Parts reviews (1 of 4)

gsantos81 — Sat, 31 Dec 2011 18:55:34 +0000

It was a nice surprise for me when I first read the invitation from Brick Warriors to write a review about their custom parts. They would send me a sample of their parts that I could analyse and write down the review.

I must confess that at the beginning I was a bit skeptical about what could I get. But all the doubts flew away after I opened the small bag with the pieces.

The quality of the plastic was near excellent, even better than many official LEGO parts (I’m not a great fan of the soft plastic used in many recent parts made by LEGO) and the overall design of the parts were also rather good.

I decided to divide this review into four parts (counting with this introduction) so I could get into details in each part. Without more delays, here’s the picture of all parts kindly offered by Brick Warriors.

I wish you all a happy and prosper new year!!!

This Siege Tower built by Knight Eklund is a very interesting entry for the CCC IX Siege Weapon. The archers tower are in fact my favorite detail about the whole construction.

Fort Legoredo was one of my favorite LEGO sets during my childhood and was a pleasant surprise when I discovered this wonderful tribute from Franko Komljenovic and Matija Grguric to this set from the year 1996.

Incredible work! Was the first and only thing that came to my mind when I saw the Liberty Inn built by ZCerberus.According to the author, the Inn was inspired in the Liberty store in London.

WWII Micro airport

I’m passionate with micro constructions and this small world war II airport built by Henning Birkeland ia a delight.

I also suggest that you take some minutes and appreciate all other his work. It will be a time well spent.

Abbey of Saint Rumare

I stumble with the Abbey of Saint Rumare today while browsing the news MOCs at history bricks flickr group. The MOC built by Aliencat! is pretty old (2009) but I taught it would be nice to revisit this magnificent masterpiece.

Lovely these two wild west charriots built by Matija Grguric. The amount of details is very high and he managed to capture really well the concept of these western’s icons.
