Catering to Lego fans who can’t find the parts they want from the company (mostly minifig accessories, heavily weighted toward weaponry) BrickForge is a company which designs and molds these elements and sells them on the internet and at Lego conventions.

Made by Etsy seller unusualfascinators, it is a perfect combination of all things woodland. When I read the description, I was […]
