"Cargo Starter Kit" Hangarbay has chosen this so its now out! prize includes ten Iconic Boxes, three Spry Boxes, and three GI Joe Ammo Cans.  (Smuggler and Logistics Control Droid not included!)  All boxes are either custom-painted or molded in color - use them in your diorama right away or weather them up first.

Thanks Doc!

At this stage of the game it looks like all the entrants may come away with something awesome! Please note, for our foreign entrants you will need to cover the shipping and handling for your prize if you win.

 Happy Birthday ISY! The force IS with you & a  BIG thank you for all your hard work on your members behalf!

[Joerhyno]

Can we give our squad a vehicle?

[Phatty]

You may, but won't be counted on for voting.

[hemble]

Are the figures allowed to be on a dio?

Ron

[Phatty]

I'm OK with that too, but again ONLY the figures will count for judging.

[lucasclones]

I am actually going to try to enter this contest! Happy bday ISY.

[mr.Jedi1977]

Happy 5th B-day ISY.  I am going for it . This will be my first ever custom contest and i am gonna cook up something real cool !!!!

[darthdaddy]

Happy Birthday ISY!  I so wish I didn't post my WIP pics of my Nightsister project that I'm working on for Elias' b-day.  It would have been the perfect entry.  If I only knew about the contest a day earlier I would have been set.  Not sure if I'll be able to enter because the new project is going to be eating up any available time I have and I have to give the little guy something for his birthday, but I'll be sure to vote.  Good luck everybody!

[Luke Sprywalker]

Crap, that does suck Brian! Good points everyone. I know I will have to come up with a small diorama as I don't do photoshop. I have kicked around several ideas and, I think, just decided on what my group would be. Will anyone be posting WIP pics of waiting for a grand reveal?
