New Customizing Contest
We have some exciting prizes to give away for our new Customs Contest. The prizes will get better and better with the more participation we get so be sure to tell all of your customizing friends to join in on the fun. The theme for this contest is any figure from the Top-30 Fan's Choice List that we sent in to Hasbro (and no Jocasta Nu didn't make that list.)
The contest is going to run for the remainder of the month, so get your entries in before Nov 1.
So here it is... it is pretty simple:
We will start out with 5 total prizes.
3 Categories:
Most Production Level (looks most like a Hasbro figure)
Most Creative
Most unique use of non-sw parts to create a SW figure
Then we will also have 2 Judges Prizes, picked at random by the staff. So anyone, no matter what you customizing skill level is has a chance to win something. Like we said the more people we have entering the contest the better the prizes are going to get. So encourage all of your friends in the customizing community to join up. (Fair warning now, anyone who attempts to enter multiple figures under different 'sock' accounts is the forums is subject to disqualification from the contest and a banning from the forums.)
You can choose any figure listed on the JD.com Top 30 wishlist that we are sending to Hasbro (sorry Jocasta Nu fans).
You are welcome to either submit your entry anonymously to me via PM in our forums, or you can post your entries publicly in the main contest thread.
We have now decided that old customs are eligible as well. Have a figure that you just finished a few months ago that fits out theme? Go ahead and submit it. Submit as many figures as you'd like to increase your chances of winning. But remember each participant is only eligible to win in one category per contest.
I also ask that you "register" with me with a simple "I'm in" type message. Either a PM or forum post will work just fine.
On Nov 1st we will get a gallery going with the photos, (you can submit up to two photos of each entry) then there will be a vote by JediDefender.com forum members who are registered AS OF Nov 1. (Sorry again Jocasta Nu Fans) This first time around the winners are going to straight up vote by the JD.com community. If there is a bunch of voter fraud or ballot stuffing, the next contest will be judged differently.
There will be a discussion thread, feel free to post pics of WIPs or keep your project to yourself, it is up to you. You can enter as many customs as you wish, but there will only be 1 prize per person.
The prizes are up in the air right now, we are working with Sponsors (you've seen the banners on the site, click them from the main page, buy stuff, we like them)..but for now I anticipate Gift Cards to advertisers instead of merchandise (they ship cheaper). But the more participants we get, the more we will try to award prizes.
Be sure to check out the main contest thread in the customs forum.
Rules are subject to change and prizes may vary.
