Use the Force this holiday season!

 

  • Use the Force this holiday season!

    Posted by Huw, 26 Nov 2011 13:53. Filed under Miscellaneous.

    We mentioned this a few weeks ago, but it's worth mentioning again, now that the website is live.

    LEGO is donating up to 1 million LEGO toys to the charity Toys For Tots, and will donate one every time someone sends a holiday greeting from LEGOSantaYoda.com.

    What's more, they are also running a competition, LEGO Star Wars "Spread Holiday Cheer" Challenge, with a grand prize of a 2'-high model of Santa Yoda. Find out more at the website.

    Brickset custom minifig Given this is for a good cause, I'm going to hold my own little competition. To enter, simply send a holiday greeting from LEGOSantaYoda.com to me at huw@brickset.com, and the the person who sends the most humorous seasonal message by next weekend will win an exclusive Brickset minifig -- one of only three I have left.

Wish I could join, but I can't think of any Star Wars ones. Though I have a good PotC one.

^ Given the objective is to maximise the number of entries I've relaxed the rules a bit :-)

So going to try. Do you win by submitting the most messages or the most humorous message?

This is great. I can't wait to see the best submissions reposted.

Oh sweet! A toy for every message! Wow! I'll defiantly send some. Can't wait to see the winner!

I hope LEGO makes it to a million!! I'll be sending as many as I can.

Very nice of you,too, Huw!
Just so I understand -- you want us to send one of the 3 LEGO greetings offered, and this has nothing to do with the photo/video upload options on the Santa Yoda site, yes?
Now to appeal to your sense of humor...
