Title: Customs Giveaways
Post by: JesseVader08 on November 10, 2005, 11:32 PM
Since some of you guys have graciously offered to contribute your custom figures for JD giveaways, I thought I should "officially" check who's interested.  Feel free to check out the Site Feedback thread (http://www.jedidefender.com/yabbse/index.php?topic=7022.msg177242#msg177242) if you'd like to see what's been discussed.

If you'd like to do this, please PM me a picture and description of your custom.  And feel free to ask questions too (either by PM or in this thread)!

Thanks Jesse.  I'll contribute something, just not sure exactly what it will be yet.  I'll make a decision within a week or so if that's ok.

 :P

Sounds great.
Title: Re: Customs Giveaways
Post by: CHEWIE on November 11, 2005, 11:24 AM
I'm thinking I will offer up this figure for it maybe.

I might make a slight modification, and take a few better pics of it first though.  Then I could mail it to whoever wants to be in charge of the drawings.

Damn, maybe I should suspend myself from the staff again - so I can win one of those.

;D

I gotta say, it's really great to see these kinds of things happen. Says a whole lot about our community.

Title: Re: Customs Giveaways
Post by: hemble on November 11, 2005, 10:05 PM
I would be happy to donate this figure

I have some customs I'd contribute to this idea, some Jedi as well as others and if it is still a functioning giveaway, some other mip starwars stuff i could contibute.

How are the winners of these give aways determined?
Title: Re: Customs Giveaways
Post by: JesseVader08 on November 13, 2005, 04:22 PM
Those are some great looking customs, guys!

How are the winners of these give aways determined?

To be honest, I'm not sure yet.  In the past we've always done random draws, but if anyone has a different idea for this, we're all ears...  :)
Title: Re: Customs Giveaways
Post by: CHEWIE on November 13, 2005, 04:40 PM
I think the random drawings is the best way to do it, but other suggestions I think would be good too. 

One thing I think for someone to be eligible would be for them to have to be a somewhat active member here, with a minimum of 250 posts or something like that.  Maybe just a 100 posts.  I don't know... I just don't want to see someone who never posts here to hear about this, and try and take advantage of it.

Really my whole idea for this was to generate more interest in customs.  I know there are lurkers in the customizing section that post quite a bit in other sections here.  Maybe this might expose them more to the joys of customizing and get them more active in this part of the website. 

So, when we get this squared away, do you want us to send you pics of what we have, and then mail them to you or some other staff member?

 :P

I'll let you know soon.  We may have you send them to another staffer since I'm up in Canada and don't want you guys getting stuck with higher shipping costs.

Hey guys, I'd like to get this rolling after the weekend, so if anyone is still interested in contributing, please let me know either here or by PM.  Thanks so much!
Title: Re: Customs Giveaways
Post by: CHEWIE on November 25, 2005, 12:27 AM
No problem - I'm in for sure.  Just need to retake some pics, and send the figure to whoever will be sending them out to the winner(s).  Will do so by Sunday!

I'm in the only thing is that I'm in Australia and I think it would be better if I sent the package direct to the winner that way we save on 2 postages.LMK

and I have 3 figures so the winner can choose from either of these

CHEWIE and hemble have graciously committed to this giveaway.

Is there anyone else interested in providing a custom for this?  If so, feel free to send me a PM or just post here.   :)

Title: Re: Customs Giveaways
Post by: Ruprecht on December 9, 2005, 11:57 AM
It'll get off the ground, it's just that this time of year is insanely busy for most people, whether in school prepping for finals, working like mad to get things finished before Christmas, trying to get Christmas/family stuff done, or all of the above.

Once finals are over, I'll have some time to make a guy for this one.  It'll probably be some sort of clone, since I'm kind of a one-trick pony.  :D
Title: Re: Customs Giveaways
Post by: JesseVader08 on December 11, 2005, 01:33 PM
Hey guys, I just wanted to let you know that I haven't forgotten about this.  I've decided to delay it to January to give guys more time to prepare customs, if interested.  Things are kinda rushed right now (like bjardkerr mentioned), and I want to do this right.  :)
Title: Re: Customs Giveaways
Post by: JesseVader08 on January 6, 2006, 08:36 PM
Time for a bumpity bump.  I'm going to get this rolling in the next few days, but I just want to be sure that hemble and CHEWIE are still interested in providing their customs.  If anyone else would like to, just let me know!

That's a very generous contribution TR1ER - thanks!  And CHEWIE, glad to see you haven't given up on me in my efforts to get this running.  hemble has also confirmed that he's still in, so we've got 3 great customs involved.

I'm just working on the technical stuff, so there should be an official start to this very soon.  :)

I'd like to donate a few figures. To begin with I would like to donate my Talon Karrde and an older Kir Kanos.

Title: Re: Customs Giveaways

Yup. There are some other figures I'm thinking of too. Maybe they will go up for sale in a lot like Chewie did recently.
Title: Re: Customs Giveaways
Post by: CHEWIE on January 9, 2006, 12:58 PM
The Kir Kanos would really be a popular figure I think Phruby.

Yeah, selling customs is something I might find myself doing more of too, to make room for new ones and to keep "refreshing" my collection.  I had a few sell quickly, and a few that didn't.  The ones that didn't went to ebay, and I actually made more money there.  Of course I wasn't looking to get rich off of them, just to give me a few extra bucks back from a hobby I've invested probably $15,000 on in the last 10 years.

 :P

Is this a monthly contest?

You will have to ask Jesse for sure (I'm just the web content/publishing guy,  JesseVader08 is the one in charge of this give-away series), but I believe his intent is for each custom contest to run for about 2 weeks...
Title: Re: Customs Giveaways
Post by: Darth Delicious on January 14, 2006, 02:17 PM
I'll end up contributing, I just haven't decided what yet.

As for the customs you guys are donating...heck, I want to win them all!

Title: Re: Customs Giveaways
Post by: JesseVader08 on January 17, 2006, 02:05 PM

Jeff pretty much answered that exactly right.  The first giveaway is about 3 weeks or so, but I'd like to increase the intensity to about a giveaway every 2 weeks.

We're getting giveaway #2 ready as we speak, but #1 is still open until the 28th.

Many thanks to all that have very generously donated their customs to this!
Title: Re: Customs Giveaways

This has been hugely popular too guys, and the customs are top-notch items too.  If it weren't for my position here I'd be entering for these things.  :)  I really liked this idea myself, and this is as unique and interesting as it gets in customizing and collecting combined, so hat's off and a round of applause to the guys who donated and participated.  Nice work folks.

Strange...  I just tested the e-mail address a couple times from 2 different addresses and it seems to be working fine.  All 4 of my TEST e-mails made it through and about 3-4 people have entered in the last few hours.  Try it again and let me know if it does not work.

Phruby, your figure will be shipped tomorrow!  I tried to go to the post office on lunch break, but the place was packed - I couldn't even get into the parking lot.  Tomorrow morning I can go to the one by my house.

Title: Re: Customs Giveaways
Post by: Jeff on February 17, 2006, 03:12 PM
So how many entries are you getting per contest?

Varies depending on what we are giving away...  I am hesitant to give out any real numbers because I don't want anyone's feelings to be hurt if their custom wasn't as "popular" as someone elses.  Suffice it to say there has been enough interest to keep them going.   ;)

We may end up taking a bt of a break because we've got some other loot piling up that we need to start giving away.  So, even if the next give-away isn't custom based, we'll get back to the custom give-aways for sure.

The third Custom Figure Give-Away has ended! 

As a reminder, it takes us a while to go through all the entries and weed out the fakes/SPAM so that only legit entries are included in the random drawing...  should have a winner in the next day or two.   

We're taking a break rfom the custom give-aways for a bit (we don't want to get too far behind on the Saga stuff).  I'll post in this thread once we are ready to get rolling on Custom Give-Away #4!   :)

He arrived yesterday! That was insanely fast delivery.

This figure kicks all kinds of butt. (http://cheesebuerger.de/images/midi/froehlich/a025.gif) I'll be back later to post pictures of him chilling with some of my other figures, but for now I just wanted to let you know he arrived safe and sound. Thanks again TR1ER and JediDefender! *grouphug*

And one with Tarkin for no particular reason other than that he was handy at the time:

I wish I had the technical skills to composite them onto a beach background or something.

You know the CW Kit Fisto is a perfect match for Commander Fin with the whole under-water thing going on.  Very nice!
