2014 Joint Customizing Challenge
« on: February 19, 2014, 02:38:39 AM »
Imperialshipyards.net and Yakface.com have joined forces again to bring customizers another  joint customizing event...

STAR WARS REBELS!



The rules are simple - create a custom figure, vehicle, playset, etc., that's inspired by the upcoming STAR WARS REBELS animated series and post your work in our forums.  Your custom just needs to be a NEW creation, and doesn't need to be in animated styling, or of an official character - this is to be  your own creation!  If you create one custom or several, you are entered into this contest one time... unless you post your custom at both sites - which means you then will be counted as having two entries, doubling your chance to win!  See below for the official threads:

Official Yakface Thread - CLICK HERE

Official Imperialshipyards Thread - CLICK HERE

Customs can be submitted from now until Wednesday, April 30.  

One (1) random winner will be chosen from the entries - and the winner will be completely random.  The winner will receive the following Kmart Exclusive Scanning Crew sets, with free shipping:



There will be two (2) sets total resulting in the above pictured four (4) figures, packaged in their sealed boxes.

As always, admin are not eligible for prizes, but are certainly welcome to join in the fun and create a custom for this too.

Thank you everyone for making both of our sites among the most enjoyable Star Wars fan communities out there, and good luck!

Well that sounds good too, but what I meant by joint is we will be pairing up with the fine folks at Yakface.com for a shared customizing event.

Look for the details this weekend folks.

Oh, myyyyy...

Ah ... now ... my Yakfinities #51 "Pirates" entry is slated to be set during the "SW: Rebels" timeframe.  Can I enter my Yakfinities crew in both contests?

I'm not really sure how fair that would be for other people - especially in the off chance that you were to be drawn as a random winner of both... just my thinking here.

I'm not eligible obviously, but I made the following for this in advance as Tamer and I were planning this - wanted some sort of "reference" custom to help kick this off.

Imperial Infiltrator





head - SAGA Legends
rest - TVC Captain Fordo

I might use him in my photonovel series too as it takes place around the time of Rebels but for all intents and purposes I would have not made this guy if we didn't have this customizing event.

I absolutely understand that, which is why I wanted to ask.  I might split the group up into a "Yakfinities set" and a "JCC set" - in fiction, they are all part of the same crew, but for contest purposes 3 figs would be entered in the Yakfinities competition and 4 different ones in the JCC.  Different figs in different competitions.

YES!  I may come out my self-inflicted semi-retirement to get in on this contest!  Looks like fun!
