UPDATED WITH ALL THE DETAILS - 02.14.13!
As a follow up to a joint customizing contest held last year in the memory of the late
Mercury Art Studios, the following sites are working together to bring another joint customizing event:
http://www.imperialshipyards.nethttp://www.yakface.comThere is a Star Wars: Episode VII theme - In order to participate, please adhere to the following rules:
Rule #1 - In order to be eligible, all entries much have some sort of "Episode VII" theme (
which is up to you!), with at least one new custom figure entered into the contest that were made solely for this event. They must be posted in the dedicated thread in the forums at either of the above mentioned website forums before the deadline, which is
11:59 PM Central Standard Time, Saturday March 30, 2013. Here is the address for the thread at Yakface you can post your entry:
http://www.yakfaceforums.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=7121Rule #2- You can make as many custom figures as you want - but regardless of how many you create, they constitute as one entry. However, if you post your figure(s) at both sites, then you will be entered in twice for the random prize pool. So it is in your benefit to post your entry into the dedicated thread at both sites.
Rule #3 - After the end of this event, ONE GRAND PRIZE winner will be selected by a panel of judges at the Star Wars fan sites sponsoring this event. We will be as absolutely fair and unbiased as possible with this. The winning prize will be announced at the end of the contest. This item will be sent free of charge to winners within the United States . If the winner is international, shipping fees will apply. This GRAND PRIZE winner will get to choose their choice from the prize pool.
Rule #4 - There will be TWO RANDOM RUNNER UPS, which will be completely RANDOM winners. The first random winner will select which of the remaining prizes they want, which will be packaged and mailed free of charge in the United States. The second random winner will get the remaining prize and same shipping rules apply. However, if any random winners are international, shipping fees will apply.
Rule #5 - Staff members at any of the sponsoring sites can participate, but are not eligible to win a prize at any time.
Rule #6 - Even though there will be a grand prize winner selected for the customizer who "wows" the judges the most, the two random winners will be selected regardless of talent level - no custom is too good for this, and no custom is too bad.
Rule #7 - Have fun with it and enjoy seeing everyone's work and ideas!
The prize pool is as follows:
This includes a Sideshow Boba Fett, a Sideshow Aireborne Trooper, and a Gentle Giant General Veers Mini Bust.
The winners we be announced on (or around) Monday, April 8. The Grand Prize Winner will be announced at each site, and the Random Winners will be announced at each site as well.
Once the grand prize winner is announced, the winner should post in the thread at either site (or both sites) which prize they want. Then the first random winner will do the same and announce which prize they want. The last random winner will receive the remaining prize.
Please feel free to ask any questions in this thread, and we look forward to seeing the custom figures submitted for this.
You should post your customs in this thread - and the companion thread at ISY is

Thank you and may the Force be with you!
