BRICKARMS

Post by **mightymigs** » Fri Jun 03, 2011 11:16 am

Hi,
I just want to know if BRICKARMS are any good.

Are they worth the price?
Do they fit in minfigs hands properly?
Are they allowed in BRIKWARS?

I am (maybe!) getting some of the space weapons.

Depends on how much money you've got in the first place. I wouldn't recommend bankrupting yourself or anything, for example.

This is something to discuss on the Brickarms forum, not on the Brikwars forum.

You don't decide what is to be discussed or not discussed in this board.

I have got about £10 ( about $13) to spend and I have made my wish list!!!

The price is the price.

You get a free random weapon per ??? money you spend, I think it's per £10.

Yes, they fit and look good on Mini-Figs.

Yes, they are allowed in Brikwars, along with just about anything you want to imagine.

Some things seem brittle, the tactical swords IMO. But mostly the quality is very good.

I am asking this here as I might be usig them in my Brikwars army. Also I can't get a decent reply in the BRICKARMS fourms.

i use them in my army. not bad for the price, granted, they could be a little less spendy.

Sure, but nxt time put your query in General Discussion, other than that then yeah, just ask and someone around here will reply...

They're specifically built for Lego, so they BETTER fit. I'd recommend going for the weapons with lower price tags in general, just on the argument of getting more bang (literally?) for your buck.

It has been my experience that Brick Arms weapons are of exceptional manufacturing quality. The plastic is good and solid and the black is an incredibly close match to Lego's black colour. If you by chance get a defective part I hear that they will send you a new one. Lego minifigs grip the weapons easily and they do not slip or drop. Brick Arms can be kind-of expensive but it is well worth it.

$10-25=1 gun
$25-50=2 guns
$50-75=3 guns, etc.

From my point of view the BrickArms firearms are wonderful quality, equil to anything Lego had=s done. Their bladed weapons on the other hand can be thin and thus can snap/break if not handled with a little care. Color wise they are wonderful.

The question of "if they are worth it" really comes down to what are you trying to do. If you want the most weapons for your money then some BrickLink deals might be better. But if you want specific weapons that BrickArms makes then they are well worth the money IMO.

My army is armed almost completely with Brickarms because of my lack of suitable parts for brick built weapons. They're exceptional quality, and while everyone says the blades and thin barrels could break, none of mine have. Well worth the price if you have the money.

I havent spent too much money on them but I have bought some and they are all worth the price, as for the blaes they are okay but combat knives aside I think the brikforge ones are better.

I own many pieces (I'm almost embarrassed to say how much I've spent) from both BrickArms and from BrickForge. You can't go wrong with either. I have yet to find one that is not well made or wouldn't fit into a minifig hand. As for price... it can get out of hand pretty quickly. The first time I was getting ready to order, I was just going through saying "I want one of these, and two of these, and one of those". Before I knew it my shopping cart was up to $50...

I will say this though: I tend to like BrickArms' selection of modern/futuristic weapons better, but I prefer BrickForge for things like swords, shields, etc. No actual reason except my personal taste, though.
