Battle Bugs
Battle Bugs - Coordinators: Lino Martins and Mark Neumann. Battle Bugs will be a new theme at BrickCon 09 and is founded by Mark Neumann, a formidable mech builder, Jason Ruff, a talented spaceship builder from Portland and Lino Martins…a car builder usually but no slouch when it comes to other stuff. This theme combines a love for the real insect world with mech technology and warfare. The ultimate bug war will take place at BrickCon 09 and the Battle Bug Commanders need your help to populate the battlefield! Big bugs are heavily armored and well gunned, but smaller bugs are stealthy and cunning. Which will you build? Trophies will be given at BrickCon 09 for some of the best small, medium and large bugs on the battlefield. For those who can’t make Brickcon, you can also join our Battle Bugs Group.
The fate of the bug world hangs in the balance and we need your help to make this a truly phenomenal new category. For sake of continuity, lets make all of our human drivers for these bugs in minifig scale. Just like the real bug world, even in minifig scale, your Battle Bugs can be tiny unmanned robot drones or giant behemoths! Seek the Battle Bug Commanders for any questions and comments you may have. Good luck everyone, and as always…happy building.
