August’s calendar has arrived! Medieval Bricks preorders are already in full swing and there’s plenty to look forward to! There’s been new releases and restocks at both the online store and in our retail locations! Stay tuned for more details in the 8/6/21 Friday SitRep.

Plus, SpecOps is just around the corner! While we’ll be mixing in some variety, there’s no doubt the Romans were the winner of our fan poll. We have some very exciting builds and minifigs planned for September, including some that our fans have been begging for for a long time! Stay tuned!

Moving forward we’ll continue to drop monthly calendars here on the blog, as well as including physical copies in select orders and available for free in our retail locations. Be sure to check back for next month’s look ahead and always stay in the know on upcoming themes, builds, sales, and more!

As always, a few important notes…

• Brickmania Digital Instructions drop each Wednesday at 8:00 AM CDT
• We’re getting back on the road! Join us at one of these events!
• Join the BKM team! We’re hiring!
• Let you voice be heard in our new Suggestion Box!
• Vietnam MOC Contest submissions are CLOSED. Next theme is 1941!
• World War Brick 2022 is set for 6/10/2022 – 6/12/2022

New digital instructions have arrived! This week features the Country Mill and Crossroads Tavern + Salty Anchor Tavern! Featuring sets released in 2000 and 2001, these digital instructions are some of the most iconic and beloved sets from earlier eras of Brickmania sets. With only a few dozen of these sets released and never restocked, this is every Brickmaniac’s chance to own a part of our history and to build sets that contributed to our early success. Lots of medieval builders have been inspired by these amazing designs, and now you can build them for your collection!

If you haven’t already, definitely check out the August Brickmania Calendar and plan to be there (and early) on release day! Our retail locations have begun to host events again as well, so check with your local Brickmania brick-and-mortar location to participate!

From PT-109 to the USS Johnston, all the way back to the Highland Keep, Brickmania has always been known to push the boundaries of mega kits. And now, there’s a new king in town. The Roman Praetorium (Commander’s House) has officially taken the top spot as the biggest kit in the history of Brickmania. This week’s new releases also feature the Trebuchet and Carroballista, as well as the new Roman Legionary MOTM. Note that we did not have a complete MOTM to film for the SitRep, so we’ll be sure to take a closer look at that incredible minifig now that we’ve returned from the road shows. Have a great weekend!

#MinifigMonday is going strong once again with the return of the D-Day Squad Pack, Modern Stealth Fighter Pilot, and Desert Storm US Marines! Plus, the Welbike with British Para and Perfect Caliber BrickArms® M16A2 with Grenade Launcher have restocked, and the Presidential Limousine is back on restock preorder. It’s all happening right now on brickmania.com – have a great week Brickmaniacs!

On another note, as many of you know we’re heading off on our first ‘road tour’ since COVID-19. As you can imagine, we’re super exited. However, we’re still operating with a fairly small team. Obviously we’ll be producing content while on our trips, but with many of the familiar faces preparing to hit the road there will be some changes over the next few weeks. For instance, the Friday SitRep will cover the Friday drop and the following Monday and Wednesday drops as well until our return. Product descriptions will be temporarily minimized. There will be no BKM Vault in August 2021, and may also be some unavailability in regards to social media DMs, etc. while the crew is on the road. But we’ll continue to do our best to engage when we can.

Basically, bear with us. Enjoy the ride and follow along. We’re so excited to see as many of you as we can!

On another note…

Well we’re back! Despite the van’s best efforts, our road team conquered Nebraska Brick Days, BrickFair Virginia, and the Sea, Air, and Space Expo over these past few weekends. It was wonderful to see faces new and old again. However, it was a heck of an endeavor. Odds are we won’t be expanding our upcoming events beyond BFNJ, The Tank Farm Open House, and BFAL. Instead, we’ll focus on keeping things running smoothly here at the HQ and start planning for World War Brick 2022!

So, if you’re hoping to see the USS Makin Island build in person, these events and WWB 2022 are your best bet looking ahead. There are still plenty of Public Exhibition Tickets available for WWB, but Weekend Passes are all but gone – so act now!

Additionally, the 1941 MOC Contest is alive and well! Our prize lineup will be announced in the coming months, look HERE for more info on how you can become our next winner!

That’s all for now. We’ll be sure to keep the updates coming here on our blog. You all are the absolute best fans in the world! From all of us here at Brickmania, Thank You!
