Brickmania calls it quits on custom model kits

Hello everyone!

Just being presented with an amazing opportunity in my life has left me
with the hard decision to stop making my custom model kits available. I have the
following kits still available (some still require a little more work to
complete:

Brickmania 001 Blacksmith Shop: 1 kit available

Brickmania 002 Crossroads Tavern (or 101 Salty Anchor Tavern variant): 1 kit
available

Brickmania 201 Light Tank: 2 kits available.

Once these kits are gone, I will no longer build custom model kits for
sale.  If interested in purchasing, please visit my site:

http://www.brickmania.com

When time permits, I will work on creating a CD ROM with all of my model
kit instructions, including those that have never made to the actual kit
production stage.

Over the past year I have accumulated more than 100k in new parts while
assembling my kits.  I plan to liquidate the bulk of this collection via
Brickbay, but it will take several weeks to sort and catalog this such an
immense quantity of bricks.  Watch for future postings as to when parts may
become available for public sale.

Thanks for all of the wonderful support I have received from this community
over the past year - it's been a lot of fun!

Dan

(...) Sorry to hear it, Dan. :-( It's always been a joy to follow your work. Good luck with future endeavors! (...) Have you given any thought to allowing someone else to pick up the building/ selling of your model kits? --Todd (24 years ago, 3-Aug-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

(...) That is unfortunate, Dan. You have an incredible talent for building and your kits are one of the best I've ever seen produced by a collector - they rival the Ultimate Collector Series in quality and detail. (24 years ago, 3-Aug-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

(...) I am SO curious what that "amazing opportunity" is! Dan? Are you going to work for TLG product development? That would be ~very~ cool. (24 years ago, 4-Aug-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

(...) Unfortunate - They look like awesome sets. The web-site said Sold-Out on all of them by the time I got there. If it's still possible to get a blacksmith shop or tavern, (even if missing some pieces or the colors are different) please contact (...) (24 years ago, 11-Aug-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
