Happy 4th Birthday ISY!
« on: September 23, 2010, 12:48:42 PM »
That's right everyone, today, Imperialshipyards.net has turned the ripe old age of THREE!  Hard to believe that a mere three years ago, a couple of guys with an idea and zero know-how decided to take the leap and create a fan site with one idea in mind: To enjoy the hobby together as one!  Well now here we are, slightly more mature, but still playing with toys!  SO what does this mean for our fantastic membership?  Well, what better way to celebrate a birthday than wishing us a Happy Birthday?  That's right folks, I'm talking about a special contest where YOU wish US a Happy Birthday!  Here are the details...

This contest is open from today, September 23rd until 8pm CST on October 7th.  Using customs figures and vehicles you have ALREADY MADE (no new customs of any kind), and the outdoor elements of your home and neighborhood, create a fitting tribute to ISY in a single photo.  Photoshop can be used to add in lettering and special effects such as blaster bolts or lightsabers, but nothing else.  Put together your outdoor dio and take a picture and post it here, as well as send it to staff@imperialshipyards.net.  Even better yet, our fabulous and hard working staff are absolutely permitted to join in on the fun this year.  Only the Admin, Wayne, Shawn, and I, will remain neutral to the contest.  To make it even more of a surprise, all entrants will have their name placed in a hat, and I will draw a name for each prize we have available!  Prizes include...

ACME Character Keys
Hasbro Products, both carded figures and boxed items
A Gentle Giant Deathtrooper mini-bust (released in October, will be shipped to the winner as soon as I have it in my hands)
Sideshow Exclusive Emperor Palpatine 12" figure, courtesy of Sideshow Collectibles.

All prizes will be chosen at random by me, all prize decisions are final.  So get cracking, one and all, and get those outdoor pictures/dioramas going!

Can we only use custom figures or can we mix in some stock figures?  Thank you.

Happy Birthday! Wow, look how you've blossomed into a young woman.
As you may have suspected, you are, hands down, the best Star Wars site on the web. Truly a blessing to fans all over the globe. A place where friends can gather and share a common interest, and feel at home, perhaps gathering around to discuss issues or ideas or to just shoot the breeze.
A wonderful site was born three years ago, and that site's name is Imperial Shipyards.net. Can I get a "Hell Yeah!?"
Kick ass site, guys. Any time any of you are down my way, holler at me, and I'll give each and every one of you an hour with my sister, Lurlene...No charge. That's right, on the house. No freaky stuff, though....Naw, I'm just kidding. She likes the freaky stuff.
Anyway, love you guys and love the site. I look forward to seeing this site at the forefront of Star Wars fandom.
On a side note, please don't send me any gifts as I am thankful enough just to see your site, and that's a gift that keeps on giving.

Happy 3rd!

wow, I had no I idea of how long you guys have been here. I joined a little over a year ago ( I think )  and have had the utmost respect  for everyone here. For my self and my 2 clones, we have  enjoyed every part of the SHIPYARDS and are here  almost daily. As one of the other member stated, star wars toys has been like plastic crack, LOL. I come here to get my fix on a daily base.

With all our love and respect and the force within us, we wish you a HAPPY BIRTHDAY.............

Alright here is my entry. I call it "Padme Heist". Here we have IG-86 and Bossk kidnapping Padme. Their getaway ship is IG-86's Mini-Cargo ship. He purchased from a down on his luck smuggler that couldn't afford to maintain the ship anymore. IG-86 fixed her up and upgraded her for bounty hunter duty. Anyway, the two bounty hunters teamed up for this nearly impossible job of kidnapping Padme. Count Dooku supplied them with a commando droid disguised as a clone to infiltrate security. The commando droid completed his mission but was destroyed by Padme's Senate Commando body guard. The Senate Commando was unsuccessful in trying to rescue Padme. After he finally chased down the commando droid he was slotted by Bossk.
