New Arrivals + New Look Brick Tanks + Emporium Update
Hope you all had a nice weekend and Father's Day on Sunday - we let Neil have a lie in which he used to go for a run instead! Then we did presents and lunch, followed by a family walk in the afternoon.
So what's happening in Cobi land this week? We have a couple of new and returning sets arriving - hopefully tomorrow (Tuesday) including the much anticipated:
NEW Willys MB ¼ Ton 4 x 4 - Lego compatible COBI 2399 - 91 brick light vehicle
Sherman Firefly - Lego compatible COBI 2515 - 500 brick battle tank
Red Army Winter Troops (3 figures) - Lego compatible COBI 2032 - 26 brick figurines - our Cobi contact kindly reserved us an extra three of these soldier sets which are currently unavailable, so don't miss out once they are gone they won't be available again until October.
Sets due back in stock week commencing 6th July:
Tiger I 131 (Bovington) - Lego compatible COBI 2519 - 550 brick heavy tank
SS-238 USS Wahoo - Lego compatible COBI 4806 - 700 brick submarine

New Logo
Some of you may have spotted our new logo on our invoices, if you have purchased anything from us in the last couple of weeks, but we thought we would formally introduce it here as well. We are looking to update our website and make it even easier to navigate and the new logo is part of that transition. Please let us know what you think:
Emporium Update
I had a call over the weekend from a customer (who lived in Wellington thankfully!) asking where our mini shop was inside the Emporium which reopened on Saturday, and I realised I had completely forgotten to let anyone know that we're not there anymore!
Just before the lockdown, we made the difficult decision to give up our stand because it was costing us more money than we were making, and it was quite time consuming to maintain.
On the plus side, the building work in our new warehouse is only a few weeks off completion and we will soon be able to start work on creating a fantastic showroom so visitors can come and have a play!
Have a good week
Warmest wishes
Zoë & Neil and the Brick Tanks Team
