The third annual MocAthalon is about to begin in March on MOCpages. This is a competition where teams of 5 build up to 30 creations from 30 categories. Visit the contest group on MOCpages for rules and to sign up and form a team. Here’s a link to last year’s MOCathalon.
Pacific Coast Highway Lug (PCHLug), in association with FBTB, is hosting their 101 Challenge, and this month’s theme is Podracing. For contest rules and prizes, click here! To post your entries (or check out who’s entered), head on over to the Flickr group.
Best of luck!
Forbidden Cove is running a multi-week Seed Part contest, where the entrants have one week to build a creation using that week’s Seed Part–and it can’t be whatever the part actually is. Week one was a classic flared helm; this week is a minifig’s chair piece.
Here are some of my favorite entries from week two, in no particular order:
Rapture of the Deep by Guy Himber
Once Cap’n Jack, Always Cap’n Jack by Bluesecrets
Enemy in Sight by Marco den Besten
There were a ton of simply amazing entries this year into Classic-Castle‘s annual contest. I tell myself each year I’m going to blog all of my favorites, and every year there are so many I fall drastically behind.
But! For your viewing pleasure, some of my favorites. I’m so glad I’m not judging.
In no particular order:
Fiant’s Lord of the North:
Koffiemoc‘s Maison de la Motte
Shmail‘s San Kastel
Noah McClung‘s Operation “Chimney Sweep”
Lolino‘s Secret of the Holy Grail

Forbidden Cove, to help get you in the groove of the season, has announced a contest! The rules are pretty simple: create your own Pirate-type Santa, and build him a setting in which to celebrate the season. The prize is a $50 LEGO Shop-at-Home gift card!

It’s two weeks in, and the entries so far for Classic-Castle‘s annual contest are just superb. I do not envy the judges. This particular one by Stefan (busboy489) caught my eye, and I just had to share it. The details in each scene are exquisite. I invite you to check each one out!
LEGO was kind enough to send us a pair of the LEGO Super Hero minifigs distributed exclusively at Comic-Con in San Diego earlier this year, and we’re going to give them away to two TBB readers. One reader gets Superman Batman, and another gets Green Lantern!
To enter this raffle, just leave a comment on this post (tips on registering and commenting). In two weeks, on Monday, November 28, we’ll randomly select two people who left comments before 11:59 PM PST November 27.
Fine print: The raffle is open to TBB readers worldwide 18 years old and older. We’ll add to the fine print as people ask questions, but let’s keep it simple for now.
