Green
(12/1/08)
| As we
pass from Autumn into Winter we thought there would be no better
celebration than to offer a few of our popular minifig
accessories in festive hues. Orange and Green join our
increasingly diverse palette as we continue to mix up new colors
with new ideas. The Green Military Helmet is a personal favorite
of mine. Be sure to check out the
BF forum for a
complete listing of items being offered in the latest colors. |

BrickForge Forum
(8/15/08)
Interest in Minifig Customization must be growing. Every day we
receive numerous e-mails asking: 'how to make such-and-such?' or
'what tools do you use?' or 'what do you think of my latest
creation?' We do our best to respond to each and every one of your
e-mails but decided it was high time we built a forum where such
questions can be asked. We've invited several talented individuals to
participate and provided a place for you to showcase your custom
minifigs. There is even a forum where you can interact with BrickForge
projects and get the latest scoop on upcoming projects and exclusive
products! Be sure to register with the same e-mail address you use at
the store as it makes you eligible to purchase forum-exclusive
accessories not available anywhere else. See you there!

BrickForge Staff Retreat
(7/23/08)
Our staff is taking a long
awaited vacation and will be unable to ship and answer e-mail requests
during these few days. Orders placed between July 23-31 will be delayed
in shipping. No worries though, we plan to keep the store open so people
can still browse, plan their wish list and order if they so choose.
BrickForge Releases New Items
(7/9/08)
As life-long LEGO enthusiasts
RedBean and myself have become passionate about not only the accessories
that detail a minifig, but the various themes TLG has gifted us with. We
were ecstatic when the Vikings theme was released and now we are excited
to see the advent of the new fantasy Castle theme - both which
coincidentally mirror our own personal visions. This time around -
instead of simply making some cool weapons, we wanted to create a suite
of accessories that could help inspire future themes. The below
prototypes offer up the elements to create six distinct custom minifigs:

- Dwarven Helmet
