Custom Lego Weapons

Ralph — Fri, 02 May 2008 13:37:59 +0000

I won’t go into the whole issue on whether or not young kids should be playing with guns or not, but I know that as one, I was making heavy use of them in my Lego. Not all the time mind you, I was just as likely to be building a lighthouse or a hockey rink as I was a chop shop or playing cops and robbers.

Apparently, there’s a company that makes genuine Lego compatible guns/weapons. I can see myself using these now, for when I’m setting up some sort of reproduction scene from a movie or a game.

Included are twenty one weapons:

Colt .45 Pistol
M23 Pistol
M23 SOCOM Pistol
PPK Spy Pistol
PPK Tactical Spy Pistol
M1A1 SMG
M4 Carbine
AK Assault Rifle
RPG Rocket Grenade
M67 Frag Grenades (2)

M41A Pulse Rifle
Micro Uzi SMG
C96 Mauser ‘Broomhandle’ Pistol
SW500 Magnum Pistol
MP5 SMG
PSG1 Sniper Rifle
M47 Shotgun
M47 Tactical Shotgun
G36 Assault Rifle
MP40 SMG
M24 Steilhandgranate

The seller, Brickarms, says they are designed using the latest Computer Aided Design (CAD) tools to allow for precise details, and yet still retain an artistic sculptural feel of the action weapons.

Injection molded to the highest of tolerances, all BrickArms Weapons are made of durable ABS plastic – the same plastic that Lego uses in their own toys, to mesh perfectly with the Lego system you already own.

Meccano Erector Set Toy Robot Store Display

This is a Meccano display, originally from an old toy shop in Syracuse, NY. Robot measures 36″ high, not including base. It is all geared to an electric motor, which makes arms and legs move as if walking, and head turns in small increments until it rotates completely around. All in working condition. Legs are on rollers that roll on base. Has Meccano name plate on chest. Robot is in excellent condition.

Pretty cool mechanics considering the age, you don’t even see many toys that active, even these days.

This thing will definitely be hard to ship though.

Star Wars Lego Collection

I love Star Wars lego. The stuff seems to ALWAYS climb in price whenever a set is discontinued. There’s a decent sized lot available right now.

I’ve seen bigger ones before, but this is still decently priced. The sets that are listed go for A LOT more individually, and there’s only six hours left to go.
