    Brickset custom minifigThank you everyone who sent me greetings from LEGOSantaYoda.com. I received about 100 in total which means that's 100 more toys that LEGO will donate to the charity Toys For Tots.

    The winner of my little competition sent both the winning message and the runner up. So congratulations to Steve (messybass) who wins this exclusive Brickset minifig.

    His winning messages were:

    • Runner-up: Huw, I know what you have got for Christmas.... I felt your presents! Merry Christmas Darth Vader.
    • Winner: Wishing Huw a Very Merry Christmas! During the festive period should the bricks we love be re-named EGO, as it’s the season of Noel? 

    They are probably as old as the hills but they made me chuckle!

    Now that's over, I need to encourage you to send as many greetings as you can to get the number of toys LEGO is going to donate even higher! When doing so you could win one of a number of exciting prizes that Ace at FBTB and myself are donating, including a General Grievous Starfighter.

    All you need to do is...

    • Go to LEGOSantaYoda.com
    • Click on one of the three greetings videos
    • Enter FBTB and giveaways@fbtb.net in the To boxes
    • Enter your name and email address in the From boxes
    • Enter the message 'For the tots'
    • Press Send card
    • Press the back button on your browser
    • Press Send Card again
    • Repeat the last two steps as many times you can!

    The more times you send, the more chances you have of winning, and in fact there's a prize for the person who sends the most!

    Read more at FBTB. As I write, the figure stands at just over 30,000. Let's see if we can get it to 100,000 by next weekend!

I knew I had no idea of your HUWmour. I went for Red Dwarf references in my entry and apparently you're all about the puns.

Very good cause. I'll send as many as I can.

I was just wondering if HUW recieved my card. I just want to know if i sent it right before the FBTB comp. My names Jacob Hand and I sent the one about the boa constrictor and the lego set.

Huw: Ooh now I get it! It's the season of No Lego :P Congrats once again messybass on the joke!

The website seems to have died.

Posted by kempo81 in United Kingdom, 07 Dec 2011 03:44

has anyone noticed the update to the site? on the santa yoda page where you compose your message you now have to copy and type the text from the image displayed in order to send your message... so no more rapid message sending by using the back button and send buttons repeatedly!!
