Ha! Yesterday I sorted. And as I finally took apart the very last remaining bits of my entry I thought “did they simply forget about this or something?”
There might be a message in there…
Congrats to the lucky winners. Well deserved all around!

Hooray, I get swag!

UrbanDictionary.com tells me “swag” doesn’t mean what I thought it meant, so Hooray, I get loot!

Way to go LEGO Brand Relations taking 3 months to pick the winners, seesh. Can we get back to calling them mini-figures now this competition is over?
My favourites (Not just my entries) didn’t win, booo!
But there are some real gems chosen, congrats to all the winners. Some even won more than one prize. 96 entries you’d think they would have spread the love around, booo again.
I’m glad dabol_t won something (did he have 8 entries?) I loved his pumkin patch but it didn’t win anything. Go figure? Go mini-figure, oh don’t get me started!

So I won two prizes! Incredible. I knew I was not totally without a chance but with so many great entries I really did not expect it.
And that grand prize winner is REALLY fabulous.

Probably the best LEGO contest ever. Well played by everyone, from TBB to LEGO group, but most of all to the winners.

Just to prove the power of TBB, the number of views of my entry jumped from 144 to 516 in a few hours after being posted for 3 months. Wow! Thanks again, and congrats to Tiberium Blue, it is one of the most creative MOCs I have ever seen!
