Eurobricks Collectable LEGO Minifigures Series 3 Building Contest Results
[Category A and Category B winners]

The Contest:
Hey everyone, it's finally over! This is the exciting moment which all of you are waiting for. Without further ado, let me proceed to announce the winners for Category A and Category B.  

What do you stand to win?
After 7 days, the votes will be calculated and the top 7 vote receivers for each category will be declared the winners. Once they have sent their name/address to DarkFang. He will ship out their wonderful prizes. What wonderful prizes, you ask? Well, TLG has generously sponsored these new lovely minifigures from Series 3 while Eurobricks sponsored all handling/shipping costs.

Attention to all winners, you are to post your preference from the most preferred to the least preferred based on one complete Series 3 set in a systematic listing format regardless of your winning position. I will do the sorting myself once I have received all of the winners' PMs. For winners who win in both Categories, you are to specify your preferences accordingly for Category A and B. The preferences are not to be mixed together.

[Tazmaniac]

Yay!
Cheers for the comp WhiteFang and to all those who voted for me  
I wonder which ones I'll get??

[WhiteFang]

A heartiest congratulations to all of the winners and the remarkable efforts by all participants.

This year, Series 3 building contest for Category A and B have seen some new members with incredible entries with lots of cool imagination. It was definitely challenging and exciting to be able to host this Series 3 traditional contest for our community. Based on the total entries for both categories, Series 3 have a higher overall entries as compared with the previous Series 1 and 2 contests. This was only made possible with the overall participation by our members.  

I will like to appauld to our regular winner, Dan Church for emerging 1st place in Category A, following by a 6th place in Category B. Lots of minifigures for you.

While, familiar finalists like Darkblane and Lisqr, have also scored a 1st place and 3rd place in Category B respectively. Kudos to the both of you. You guys never fail to impress me.

The rest of you which includes, Dreamweb, Dannylonglegs, TazManiac, SuperBagel, mookage, turambar, Cutlass_Iz, George G. , gabe and Cecilie, who all have produced stunning entries to "wow" the crowd that ultimately secured your victory. It was a very tough and extremely close match for the 2nd to 5th position for both categories. All of you are excellent builders and you guys have did very well to come this far.

There are so many other outstanding entries too and I wished I could have a bigger prize pool for the rest. Don't be disheartened. Try again for the next contest and you could definitely stand another chance to win some greater prizes.

[Cecilie]

Yey, my first time placing in a LEGO building contest, I'm so happy . Thanks to everyone who voted for my entries, and congratulations to all of the winners .

[Solitary Dark]

Thanks everyone for another fun contest!

[Darkblane]

Wow, I'm really pleased that my Category B entry came first, so thanks to everyone who voted for it.

Of all of the vignettes I've built so far, its probably one of my favourites, so it's really nice to see that you all liked it as well. I had a lot of fun building it, as it was so completely random, and as someone said in the voting thread, yes, I did have a bit of a eureka moment when I came up with the idea. I'd actually been struggling to come up with an interesting concept which used three minifigs which weren't an obvious combination and had the idea that one of them would be a dream whilst in the car on the way to work!

Well done to all of the other entries and winners, especially those in Category A. I didn't actually get around to voting myself, but mookage's pilot entry really stood out for me and I also particularly liked TazManiac's gorilla suit guy entry. I'd actually considered doing something similar for my Category B entry, but couldn't figure out how to create a forced perspective in a way which would allow me to use minifigs on the ground looking up at the gorilla on top of the building.

I don't think my Category A entry did very well this time, but it was an interesting concept to try out, especially as it allowed me to use the forced perspective to take this photo (which I couldn't include as part of the entry as it contained the minifig). I definitely think Dan Church's microscale ground worked a lot better than my attempt, so congratulations Dan on your first place in Category A.

Last but not least, I want to thank WhiteFang / DarkFang for organising another fantastic couple of contests, and also LEGO for supplying the prizes.

I look forward to the Series 4 contests ...

[prateek]

Congrats to the winners, which I think were chosen correctly. Great job overall
