About my kits....
I've started making my own custom kits since early 2000 (the first being my now famous Blacksmith Shop), basicallly with the goal of filling gaps in demand for certain themes not currently being offered by Lego. My sets are more expensive than the average set offered by Lego, but this is because my sets are generally larger, produced in smaller runs, and of course I have to buy my bricks on the open market. All of my kits are made from new Lego bricks (only handled in the sorting and packaging process), come with full color building instructions (also available separately), and are packaged in a sealed box.

ALL OTHER KITS ARE NOW PERMANENTLY DISCONTINUED!
Brickmania has stopped all new kit production on May 31, 2003. Please read this important announcement! Remaining inventory is now ALL GONE! No additional units of any of the kits depicted on this site will be made ever (when I say limited edition, I mean LIMITED EDITION). While I appreciate the offers to buy additional units, my decision to discontinue them is firm and will not change. I still have prototypes models for several kits than never went into production, so there is a possibility that there may be further instructions or even another kit or two, but I am making no promises what so ever!
