World War Brick veteran Ross aka “Rumrunner” has given us a sneak peek picture of his expanded Juno Beach D-Day Diorama he’s bringing to World War Brick.
We can’t wait to see this one all set up with the completed vehicles and minifigs!
We are pleased to confirm that Josh from Brick Mercenaries is joining us at World War Brick 2013. His custom figures are the benchmark standard for exquisite detail and high quality standards. Josh was part of the our team at BrickCon 2012 and his figures have been available via mail order through GI Brick. Josh plans to have figures on display and for sale. He will also be hosting a presentation on mini figure customization.

We’re making a giant mosaic for permanent display at Brickmania Toyworks! Participants will create the mosaic depicting US Marines and a Navy corpsman raising the US flag on Iwo Jima – the scene that was the basis for Joe Rosenthal’s Pulitzer Prize-winning photograph and an iconic moment in US history. The mosaic will be constructed on 225 10″x10″ baseplates and cover 156 square feet of wall space and will have and incredible 230,400 studs! This project will be worked on during the entire duration of World War Brick and wil be open to public participation. Participants will be rewarded a custom US Marine minifig for each 10″ x 10″ baseplate completed.
Will Chapman just gave us a glimpse of some new over-molded prototype weapons that will be on hand for WWB! Check ’em out on Flickr!
We will be conducting the first tournament of Rumrunner’s Micro Battlefield game during the private portion of World War Bricks. The debut tournament will be American vs. German armor and the last General standing will be generously rewarded with fame, fortune, and glory! Losers will spend the rest of the weekend scrubbing pots and polishing boots. (not really) All Weekend Pass holders are welcome to join in the fun. Tournament will take place Friday evening and be continued Saturday evening if necessary.
