Merh Crabmus, my little /toy/ soldiers! It's that time again, from today until December 12th you have the chance to enter and win some LEGO prizes!
For those of you who weren't here the past two years, you might be wondering what the deal is. Create a Holiday MOC! It could be anything Holiday related, so let your imaginations run wild!
ALL ARE WELCOME, doesn't matter where you live! Email me ([email protected]) your address and a picture with something on it listing your name/trip, date, email address and top three prize themes. You can take one without to post here and then email me the one with the info if you don't wish it public. The info in the pic is so people don't steal random MOC from the internet and try to cheat. You wouldn't cheat Santa would you?
Now, on to the prizes... Santa enjoys a surprise, so he won't be telling you EXACTLY what you'll win but you have the opition of picking your top three themes you want a set from. Please pick the three themes you want the most(in order) and Santa will do his best to make sure you get at least one set in that theme. I do have multiples of the same sets so some Anons will get the same prizes. Here are the themes to choose from:
- Star Wars
- City
- Chima
- Harry Potter
- Friends
- Ninjago
- TMNT
- Hero Factory
Good luck!
Lego only, or are other brick building systems allowed?
Huzzah!
I had so much fun with this last year. So glad you're back!
Expect at least one entry next week.
Only got Hero Factory and Bionicle at the moment, could I still try to make something festive?
>>4556635
i'm not santa, but hey man that shit's still lego
>>4556635
I'd say it's possible. You could make a robo-Santa or something crazy.
>>4556543
I'll participate, I don't think I'll win anything but I'll try, it's fun to build.
I don't have a santa minifig, is it okay to make a custom one from regular pieces? I'm all out of cash.
>>4556543
Do you send to France (and other country as well) ?
>>4557889
>ALL ARE WELCOME, doesn't matter where you live!
>>4556569
While Asian Santa is my mortal enemy every year, I am found of some bizarre bootleg and third party stuff. So do what you want? You can't go wrong here as long as you're having fun! Though your prize might have to be different...
>>4556616
What was your entry last year?
>>4556635
>one of the prizes is Hero Factory...
As >>4556642 and >>4557760 stated, it's LEGO. So if you think you can make something holiday related more power to you!
>>4557871
Never doubt in your ability to build anon! Enter! Let Santa know you don't have a figure and he might have to see what he can do!
>>4557889
As >>4557956 said I eat the shipping/cost of prizes every year so far. Enter. I know I've shipped to Poland and the UK in the past.
>>4558251
>What was your entry last year?
>>4559843
Ah. Good luck this year!
>>4556543
I love you Punichu, I will make a cool entry as soon as I get an idea.
>>4556543
I hope the Hero factory prize is that Breez Poly
>>4557871
I only had a handful of pieces last year and took a shitty iPhone photo but still won a great prize.
Just build whatever you can, but most of all enjoy yourself.
>>4556543
Punichu, you glorious bastard! You made my Christmas so wonderful last year by doing your contest.
Maybe this year since I have a bit more Lego (thanks to you) I'll be able to pull off a better entry. Although the majority of what I own is still specialty pieces/minifigs, so I'll still have to be super creative to make something out of it.
I apologize for the face, but this was pretty fun to make. Those antlers are not stable at all, staying on only because they're resting on the head and shoulders.
Makes for a nice steed for figmas though, sorry Santa for the Halloween Len in that pic!
I won last year, can I still join?
>>4562004
What'd you win?
>>4562202
That's a secret, but it wasn't first place for sure. The first placer got a neat-o Sarcophagus from Pharaoh's Quest filled with goodies.
>>4561792
>shitty iPhone photo
Can you post it?
>>4561792
Thanks, I'm glad I could help make your holiday great. Good luck this year! Make sure you note in your entry email you won last year amd what. I don't want to send people repeat prizes.
>>4561859
Very Lovecraftian. Neat.
>>4562004
Of course, just note in your entry email that you did and what you won. I don't want to send people repeats.
>>4562202
No telling of Santa's Secrets kids.
>>4562558
Ssssh.
>>4562692
>>4562710
You can search me on Google+ to see all the past entries. They are not marked who won or not though.
Santa's a bit under the weather so he is late with his daily bump. Sadly not for the same reasons Rudolph's nose is red...
Thanks to you dear contestman, I've come out of my miniature dark age It's fun to build again! I've never thought houses could be so creative, and I've spent so much time on spacecraft. I've also cut both my fingers on a lego crate, but it's a good pain...
>>4556543
Just sent my pics in.
My entry last year, filled with lewd jokes and general inappropriateness. I wish I had a genie minifigure to drive the point home.
>>4562710
I'm on my phone now so I can't upload it, but here it is on Punichu's Google+ page.

I have a ton of blindbag minifigs but the only sets I had were the Castle series Jester & Wizard bags plus an Atlantis mini sub. I went through at least three or four ideas trying to make some kind of diorama before running out of pieces and having to start over again. Finally settled on the couple under the mistletoe by the fireplace.
>>4565985
Actually, I just looked them up and they were under the Kingdoms title, and came in small boxes. But with the amount of pieces they might as well have been bags.
Picked them up when they were $1 each at Wal-Mart. I buy the cheaper Lego items every now and then, but still won't pick up a big set because I know that would kick my Lego addiction back into high gear and I can't really commit that much money into buying toys right now.
>>4564671
You're welcome..?
>>4565576
You should post one in the thread man!
>>4565777
I still giggle at Wonder Woman with the cream pie.
>>4565985
>>4566002
I really liked your entry. It told a story yet it was so simple.
>>4568516
Is it okay if I don't have a santa in my entry?
here's my entry: Space Sled Train Ship
Benny and Kenny decide to help lighten Santa's load this year. Also cameo by Weird Al.
>>4569275
>>4569279
>>4569282
My entry this year is a little diorama of traditional Christmas morning. I had a lot of fun with it, although I had to stretch myself and my pieces pretty thin engineering enough wall for this.
>>4570623
slightly different angle
>>4568722
It's a holiday building contest, Santa is not required.

What's the framed tile?
Contest ends this Friday, only have five people so far... Don't let Krampus win!
>>4574152
>What's the framed tile?
the chima eris interceptor set is where i got it. i dont know if it means anything in that context. but if you pretend hard enough, it might look a little like a fleur de lis.
>>4574152
If there are less people, does that mean bigger prize packs for those who entered or are you gonna go ahead and donate what's left to charity? Kids need lego too I guess.
>>4574152
What time does it end?
I'm too busy for work to build something. ;_;
>tfw Line cooks open at 10am and finish at 12am
>>4575382
I might as well enter this, since it would be the height of foolishness to turn down the possibility of free Legos! The old thread I originally posted them in is dead, but all the pics are here:
http://legoquest.wikia.com/wiki/St._Altimus
I'll send you an email sometime if I remember.
My entry is sent.
Here's my entry, The Abominable Snowmech
Santa, I sent you an email, but I don't have any preferences on presents.
>>4576361
Damn, those translucent orange chainsaws are the fucking best. Are those City sets in the arctic that good? I love their use of white and orange, but I'm cautious.
