Prototype of the next Manhattan module arrived

Prototype of the next Manhattan module arrived

Published on 10.02.2019

Many fans of our big Manhattan construction project ask us about the next module. The answer is: we are working on it! We have just built the prototype. Unfortunately, some time will pass before the finished set arrives, but you can already see it here. If you use the button "inform me, when available", we will automatically send you an email as soon as the set goes on sale.

The Brookfield Place module is adjacent to the World Trade Center and is the first set to show the Hudson River at its edge. If you want to know more about the project, here is an English video by our designer Adrian Barbour. At about 0:28 you can see where the module will sit – look for the number 6!

Webshop update: Bluebrixx Specials now with subcategories

Webshop update: Bluebrixx Specials now with subcategories

Published on 03.02.2019

In recent months, our shop has grown steadily and we are constantly expanding our range of in-house produced sets: Bluebrixx Specials, developed by our designers and produced on our own. Today, these sets cover a variety of topics – such as railway, architecture or military models.

With nearly 100 products, the Bluebrixx Specials shop area became confusing, so we introduce subcategories. At the top of the section https://www.bluebrixx.com/en/bluebrixxspecials is a sub-category bar that leads directly to sets such as railroad cars or science-fiction models.

Bluebrixx Specials + creativity = eye candy!

The two Bluebrixx freight cars of the AFOB (adult fan of bricks) and railway connoisseur reyemkcorb are so impressive that we do not want to keep these pictures to ourselves: An image editing program, a color laser printer, self-adhesive film and lots of creativity together make for a real eye-catcher.

Our customer has slightly modified the tanker with a few parts. The stickers on the two cars are so realistic, you have to look twice to discover the ingenious puns about bricks in the logos. Is there still someone claiming that stickers are stupid and useless?

Brick by brick – the prototype of our signal tower

Brick by brick – the prototype of our signal tower

Published on 27.01.2019

Not all our train sets are about trains and rails: this signal tower looks great on every track system! With about 1,300 parts, including many masonry bricks and windows, it is a great model as well as a great parts supplier for larger buildings. Some parts of our prototype show wrong colors, like the green doors.

The floors of our building are not accessible, because such a building usually stands between the tracks and is difficult to reach. But experienced builders can easily modify the set and add an interior. The white signs are made for self-designed stickers. Maybe in the future we'll develop a sticker sheet for railway models...

The assortment of our Bluebrixx Specials is growing continuously: In the next time we will publish at least one new set weekly. This week, among other things, a large stake car or "flat car in standard design with bogies" appears.

Everything bulky can be transported on this car, such as tree trunks, machine parts or containers. The model is also ideal as a basis for your own creations! On the base plate of 6x28 studs you can build everything from your own parts supply: from tanks to containers or passenger compartments.

In 2019, lots of train-themed Bluebrixx Specials will arrive: In addition to a large selection of freight cars, the first locomotives and passenger cars will soon be released. In addition, we will also offer accessories related to railways.

Like this little set of two bumpers. Built sturdily to stop trains, and faithful to the look of their real counterparts. And because bumpers are mounted on rails, we also add two straight rails to this set!
