So right now I have a 6 year old and a 4 year old and things get broken. I used to enjoy building plastic models and scratchbuilding from wood, but it's a hazardous time for that. Instead I've been building some little models with Lego bricks that are scaled to a little game called "Micro Brick Battle" and I thought I'd share some of the designs with a small company called Omaha Bricks in case others were interested in building some of these models as well... they are all 1:120 scale.

Here's the same picture of some of them on Instagram where you can also find more pictures: https://www.instagram.com/p/CAnQ73YpSwv/ (A few of the planes pictured will be released over the next month)

And they are available here: https://www.omahabricks.com/micro-scale and match the game size at: https://www.brickmania.com/micro-brick-battle/

Ryan, those are pretty cool! Lately I've been putting together some sets from a company called Cobi. I think they are really neat.

Yeah, COBI is ok and the kids have a few and I like them too, but I found that several of the parts don't hold up well under wear at all and replacement parts are fairly hard to come by. Lego is just enough more common that if something breaks, (Which is a lot more rare) I just grab another part and it's good again.

I still need to test build this, but it should be a Japanese G4M3 "Betty" bomber.
