That is a good idea Brian. We don't have too many produced AF kids other than Annie and young boba fett do we?

Also we have something cooking up along the contest lines so stay tuned.

Folks these were some ideas I put forward in a post to the admin guys a while back....  

Something to mull over!


Who can take the best photo of their customs in an outdoor environment...

No prizes, just a simple, friendly competition!

Or

Imperial Trooper Variant competition...  Taking things back to the old school! we see tons of Clone customs, let's see what our customisers can do with a Stormtrooper?

Or

Create a Clone Army vehicle custom - Pimp my ride Clone Trooper style...

Just some ideas....

I want to see Clones  ;D  ;D  ;D  I love this guys ^^ Diorama !! Clones !! Customized Clones or general custom troopers (stormtrooper,clones, drivers .. ). Perhaps a new legion creation (you know what i mean - like 41th elite corps BUT a new, not ever mentioned legion) with a little background story, some pics of their operations etc. That would be cool  8)

F.e. the 189th elite corps "ewok butchers"  - this legion was on endor since the very beginning of the clone wars. After the clone wars they specialiced on the forest battle- they were at the front at the Battle of Kashyyk. It was a elite corps that absolved sepcial mission like sabotage,rescue missions and assasination (like rc´s ). After the battle of endor the survivors work in the underground and sabotage rebel factorys.....

I hope you know what i mean :) (of course with a lot of pics :D)

Greetings

Kevin

I like the imagination "mode", but  from time to time , it will be great the specific theme. There's always the chance to participate or not.  [at1]
I'd like to see more specific contests... some of these are very specific. 

Broad contests are great but specific ideas push people to go at the same project from different angles... and they can be judged more fairly.  Since the contests would be more specific, the judging would be more specific as well...

of course, the broad scoped contests we've been having lately usually bring in more entries as more people are able to contribute...

perhaps we should have a few "just for fun" contests...

or even some "VS" contests where several people all sign up for matches, then we battle it out in very specific challenges until one customer is crowned the champion, no prizes except the title? 

in fact... I realy like that idea.  Having some kind of competition lined up where we have people enter their names into a "pot".   Out of that pot they are lined up, bracket style, against a random component.  They are given a month to complete a SPECIFIC custom character or idea and the winner of that match-up moves on to the next bracket.  This continues for however long it takes until there are only 2 or 3 customizers left and they duke it out over an epic finale custom project.... 
In this senario I think a panel of impartial judges (at least 3) should be named for the entire run so that it doesn't turn into a popularity contest making it unfair to any match-ups...
