Interesting! I might give this a go for my first SW contest entry. Got to get my thinking cap on now.

[Burman]

Very nice. I look forward to competing in this. Good idea to all you planned it

[Admiral Ron]

I am so trying to enter this! I wish everyone the best of luck!

[Torham]

My recent Star Wars MOC (you can see here) would fit this contest. Now I need to come up with a better idea.

[KimT]

Yeah, but I'm sure you'll come up with something good

[---Vertea---]

I  might be interested in this. It would be a combo of first SW MOC and second contest entry here on EB.

Best of luck to all of you!

[Darth Jar Jar]

This is gonna be fun

EDIT: already thought off my idea

Hmm. A nice idea with lots of possible entry ideas! I'll start brainstorming right away!  

[The Legonater]

Aw... there goes my cool Halloween themed entry...

Well, back the ol' drawing board.

[Mrlegoninja]

Hmmm... I might do this. Probably not, though.

[Masked Builder]

I'll see what I can come up with!

Custom Minifigures and weapons are allowed?  
Wouldn't that be more of an advantage to those who have them?

If you compare to those who doesn't, then yes.
Advantages are everywhere.
If you have a zillion bricks, then the odds are that you'll do better than if you only have ten, wouldn't you say?

What's your point?

What happens if those zillion bricks are just 2 by 4 bricks

Then you might actually be better off with ten different ones instead
Now get back on topic

I read that but it is a good idea to be on the safe side.

Size is max 48x48, so yeah it can be smaller, even down to 1x1 though I wouldn't recommend that

[Flare]

Cool, I like these kinds of contests
