Black M60 w/DOG Ammo Can
IT IS A PROTOTYPE. As of now, only Dan at Brickmania has the M60.
Check with him if you are looking to make one of them your very own.
I'll rev this design in the coming weeks and months, to tighten it up to my standards. Until then, please do not ask me when it will be available, If you do, you will be blocked because it will show me that you can't be bothered to read this first.
Parked at Preston's 1970s brutalist bus station is GCW 461S. This was the prototype of the "B-series" Leyland National. Since the original Leyland National could hardly have been worse, any change was almost bound to be an improvement. I cannot now remember what the changes were. I think perhaps it was at this stage of the National's development that they re-positioned the batteries above the front axle to improve weight distribution. Poor road holding is intrinsic to rear-engined buses because the heavy mechanical units are at the rear. The early Nationals were heart-stoppingly prone to front-end skids when cornering on wet roads. In this particular example the "air conditioning" has been dispensed with and replaced by conventional heating, although I can't now remember whether this modification was a feature of all B-series Nationals.
At the time of this photograph, Thursday 18th May 1978, the bus was still owned by British Leyland, who no doubt found it convenient to test experimental vehicles under service conditions in the fleet of a local operator such as Ribble Motor Services. The Leyland-based independent J. Fishwick often operated Leyland prototypes in its fleet.
The TTC prototype of the Articulated Light Rail Vehicle ALRV on display at the Canadian National Exhibition in Toronto in August 1982. The last in service ALRV's were retired in the Fall.
A Heavy Machine Gun. Still in the prototype stage. The H34VY has two barrels, firing in a LeftFire, Right fire, Left, Right. So its BANG (Left) then BANG (Right) etc etc.
There is a cloth box mag on both sides of the weapon. The left box mag feeds the top barrel, the right feeds the bottom barred. The H34VY is a Caseless MG.
The trigger is a Full-Hand Squeeze trigger.
The H34VY is meant to be mounted on a vehicle.
Comments, criticism appreciated.

One of four WWII-era Soviet weapons.
It can be seen at BrickFair Alabama (Jan 13-15), at the GI Brick and Brickmania tables. They are NOT for sale, and will NOT be given away there.
It is currently ONLY A PROTOTYPE, but I MAY include it as a special item in an upcoming WWII-themed BrickArms pack.
What is prototype, what is mold test? I don't care~ May be u already get this, but it's not worth to show off, it's just some pcs of plastic u never seen before ;-)
This was prototype number 4, completed in 1975. It was more commonly seen on route 24, but on this Sunday (I think in summer 1977) it had strayed on to the 3 and is pictured at Crystal Palace.
The driver has forgotten to change the destination - as it is departing Crystal Palace here.

The Denzel automobile was an early, but largely unremembered, competitor to Porsche in Vienna, Austria beginning in 1948. Although some automobile historians have relegated this marque to the category of a builder of "specials", the Denzel was manufactured for approximately 7–8 years after 5 years of development with total output approaching 300 units ending in 1959 according to the biography of Wolfgang Denzel on the company web site.
Denzel achieved worldwide publicity with their stunning win of the 1954 Alpine Rally. Denzel only manufactured open roadsters, similar in style to the first post-war Porsche prototype. Like the Porsche marque launched in the ashes of World War II, Denzel developed its own enhanced VW drivetrain components and on occasion, even used Porsche engines in some of its later models. Earliest models used handcrafted steel bodies but switched to aluminum bodies in the mid-1950s.
Wolfgang Denzel, was owner of the Denzel Automobile Company located in Austria, created the automobile. Today is the Wolfgang Denzel AG a Car dealership company.
Daimler Fleetline TNB759K was one of the few prototype Standard vehicles that escaped the cutters torch and went on to have a second career.
It was sold on to the Middleton Scout and Guide Band as transport for the various walking days and marches the band would attend. It is seen in the former Bee Line yard at Oldham in the mid nineties in a vandalised state.
Ordered by Rochdale Corporation, the order was changed to allow the chassis to be sent to Northern Counties to be bodied to the style produced by the Selnec designers of what would become the Selnec Standard vehicle.
Prototypes as of now.
By popular demand.
*NO GIFTS ARE FOR TRADE*
Soon to be added:
-Short shotted Black BAR.

-Possibly Panzerfuast.
These creations (many of which you may remember from my stream in the past year) have been outfitted with the newest BrickArms prototypes, and will be available on the Creations for Charity website very soon!
A GREAT BIG THANKS to Will Chapman of BrickArms for his generous donation for these figures!
This is a prototype of one of the Tennis Ball Launcher Droids from the Serena Williams' Wonder Woman commercial. I still need to find a few more pieces in White or Blue before I'll be happy with it.
Mobile Frame Zero: Rapid Attack Stats: 2Rd (tennis ball launcher) 1G (extra legs) 1Y ("eyes") 2W.
So...I think it's time I reviewed my prototypes!
M16 w/ Masterkey attachement
I really do love this weapon, it's quite cool! The white color is very handy for winter scenes (WIP, look for one soon!) and overall is just quite nice. There isn't a whole lot of point in reviewing the design, since it is production now. :P My only comment is that I would love to see Mold #14 run in white, I think it compliments this weapon very nicely!
Mags
First-I love them. Perfectly scaled, and I would love to see a production run of them. I am lucky enough to have 2 black ones to go with my new production M16s, I can't wait to do a couple builds with them. I have no issues with the design, however as I would love to have more of them to go with the M16s, I would like to see a proto mold cut that allows many of them to be run at once, similar to the Derringer sprue. My favorite feature-They fit perfectly into the Brickforge utility belt!
Chakram
This is a pretty cool proto, and with a little creativity very handy! ;) I plan on painting the GiTD one with some black paint to make it more realistic. Not something I would hugely buy if put into production, but still handy to have on hand.
Derringer This is a nice proto, detail level is perfect as always. Although GiTD looks useless, I actually have an idea for a MOC with them which I'll be creating at some point. :P Nice for Steampunk scenes, I probably wouldn't get many as I don't build steampunk, but it's still a nice proto.
Advanced Battle Rifle
This is just a great weapon. I love it, all the details are great. It's hard to see, but it's in OD Green. I can see a lot of uses for it in both Apoc and modern. I love it in the OD green color, but I'd love to get a hold of one in rust too do some apoc figures. It's something I would just love to see in production, I would buy loads of them. I can also see many modding possibilities in this weapon.
Joint Force Sci-Fi Rifle (JFSR)
Oh yes. This weapon is just win, and in rust I love it. I am working on a apoc figure to display it with, even the WIP looks great with it. I love everything about it, it is amazing. <3 Personally I think it could use a little more detail, but not to much more. I really like the scope, I am planning on trying to mod it onto an AC8 if I can get one in GM or some other AC8 production color. For sure something that I would love in production.
Sprues
Although called useless by many, I actually think they are rather useful. As proved by DJB, They are rather useful for making gas-masks if modded. I personally like to use them as just random junk in apoc scenes.
SABR Shotgun (Not pictured)
I also have a SABR which I custom painted but forgot too add in the picture. So...Overall it's a nice gun, something I would love in mass production. I have seen a lot of custom painted ones, so I decided to try it myself. Came out pretty nice, I'll post a picture at some point.
So that concludes my review, enjoy!
A BRCW class 110 DMSL heads North from the down sidings at Doncaster, hauling a vacuum-braked early Mk 2 BSO. It was very unusual to see a first generation DMU vehicle hauling conventional coaching stock, albeit only running ECS.
Note also that a traditional oil lamp is being used as a tail lamp - quite unusual by this date.
July 1989, Doncaster

I am working on a dieselpunk style tank based on the German A7V tank. This was the only German tank during ww1.
Since the Nazi's had some insanely large tank concepts which were never built because of their sheer size and weight and also the land under their tracks whouldn't hold the weight.
So I thought it clever to build a hovertank instead.
I am also building a viarant which merges the A7V prototype with a 'slightly' enlarged Karl gerat style mortar.
An older shot Will took of the Time Bomb prototype that I've added to my Flickrstream for use on the BrickArms Forums
These are prototypes - not production.
They will be shown at BrickCon 2011, and included in the Castle Contributors Pack
I know it's not complete and in very raw state. Instead of finishing it, I will use it as a prototype for a new bjd body that will be made of another polymer clay.
'Networker Classic' prototype, what would of been the BR class 424 seen here stored at Litchurch Ln Works in Derby.
This vehicle was originally a 4-CIG driving trailer 76112. The "Networker Classic" concept involved rebuilding Mark 1 design Southern Region EMUs of Classes 411, 421 and 423 to meet current crash-worthiness standards. This involved building a new bodyshell on the existing chassis, but keeping the original electrical and motor equipment. Therefore, the aim was to produce a 'new' unit at one quarter the cost of manufacturing a train from scratch. The rebuilt units would have had a life of at least fifteen years, thus saving considerable amounts of money when replacing old stock. However, for some reason the project was not successful, and train companies turned to new-build trains of Classes 375, 376, 377, 444, 450, 458, and 460 from various manufacturers.

Helmut Polensky (10 October 1915, Berlin – 6 November 2011, Saint-Tropez) was a German moto racer, racing driver and racing car constructor.
Polensky was the youngest of four sons. His father was an architect. After leaving school and finishing military service, he began a career as a professional motorcycle and auto racer. After the Second World War, he married. He spent the last decades of his life in Saint-Tropez.
Polensky began racing motorcycles as a club racer in the mid-1930s. In 1939, he switched to sports car racing, piloting a used BMW 328. The same year, he signed as an engineer apprentice with Auto Union, and also joined the National Socialist Motor Corps.
Polensky spent the Second World War as a logistics specialist in Berlin. In 1945 he escaped from a Soviet prisoner of war camp, fleeing to Hamburg. He worked there in 1946 as managing director of a small motor company.
In 1947, Polensky returned to Berlin and in the ruins opened one of the first Vespa dealerships in Germany. He also began racing again, designing and in his own workshop constructing a Formula Three racer with a 500 cc motorcycle engine, akin to the Cooper 500. Polensky's first model was the Kurpfalz. This was followed by the Monopoletta, a BMW-powered monoposto. Polensky raced his Monopoletta throughout the late 1940s across West Germany. In 1950, he was fifth overall in the West German Formula Three Championship.
In the early the 1950s, Polensky began to concentrate increasingly on sports car races. He entered the Mille Miglia in 1952. His wife served as co-driver several times in the Tour de France. Around the same time, he moved his family to Karlsruhe, where he opened a Volkswagen dealership. Driving a Porsche, he won the 1953 Coupe des Alpes and European Rally Championship, coming first overall in the championship. He was also eighth overall at the 12 Hours of Reims in 1954.
Polensky entered the 24 Hours of Le Mans three times. In 1955, he was shared a Porsche 550 with journalist Richard von Frankenberg, coming fourth overall and earning a class win. He also took the 21st Biennial Cup.
In 1956, Polensky quit racing to become a successful automobile dealer.
