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!

Just a reminder that there’s only a fortnight to go in the 7777 Redux contest. Enter and you could become the proud new owner of a 10219 Maersk train, 7937 Train Station or 7936 Level Crossing.
All entries must be in by midnight 30th November on the east side of the date line. If your clock says Nov 30th you’ll be fine.
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.

The end of October has once again brought us Classic-Castle‘s annual building event of epic proportions!
Now in its ninth year, I invite you to check out the past years winners, this year’s categories, and get your build on.
The contest runs from November 1 to December 31, with twelve categories designed to fit everyone’s building preference and collection size. Check them out! You’ll find all of the rules, categories, and prizes here.
Ricardo Silva summons up a storm in this whimsical scene. The fig posing in this great and the use of white dinosaur tails is perfect. Also I absolutely love the expression on the cloud.
It seems that I somehow failed to announce this contest here on TBB when it started a month ago. As things stand right now, we’ve reached the deadline with fewer entries than we have prizes! I just received the prizes from LEGO a few days ago, and they’re all great. It looks like we’ll be giving away one each of almost all of the new Alien Conquest sets, not the small ones, though. Our smallest prize seems to be a twenty dollar set!
Just like last year, this contest is all about trying to build something that you think would make a cool set. Mark Stafford is serving as our celebrity judge, and he’ll try to give each entrant some insight into how a real set designer would have their design critiqued. Of course, this is an unofficial contest, and in no way constitutes a job offer from LEGO, or solicitation by LEGO of ideas for actual sets to be produced. It’s all in fun!
FBTB just announced their second annual MOC Madness building tournament. Build a new original bounty hunter ship and compete in head to head in tournament-style voting for a chance to win a UCS Super Star Destroyer among other goodies. The deadline is October 31. Check out the top 32 entries from last year for some inspiration to get your brain juices flowing.
