Eurobricks' Licensed Summertime Style Contest - Rules & Discussion

[Clone OPatra]

Our 2024 Licensed Themes 12x12 vignette contest is here!

Licensed Summertime Style Contest
May 4 - June 9 2024

Build a 12x12 vignette depicting how your chosen Licensed character(s) spend their time in the sunny season. Whether it's Thor on a bushwalk in the Australian Outback, Buzz and Jesse in a summer camp, or Mushu and Mulan in Milan, show us a slice of a Licensed character having some summer fun.

Thanks to LEGO, one contest winner will get a 100EUR set of their choice.

Contest Entry Rules

• One entry per Eurobricks member
• You can join Eurobricks to enter the contest (but we'd like you to stick around!)
• The contest will run from May 4th 2024 to June 9th 2024. As long as it's still June 9th somewhere in the world, you can enter.
• To enter, post just one picture of your MOC in the Summertime Style entry topic.
• Your MOC must fit within a 12x12 frame but does not have to be on an actual base. No height limit. Very minimal overhang allowed.
• Your MOC must relate to any Licensed property LEGO has done past or present, excluding Star Wars, and fit the brief of a character spending their summertime . You don't have to use LEGO's parts/Minifigures from your chosen License, but the property should be clear. (I.e. you can make your own Indiana Jones Minifigure from other LEGO parts, but it should be identifiable as Indy)
• All entries must be new creations, not posted anywhere else prior to being entered in the contest. You may be asked by a staff member to change your entry if it is too similar to an earlier creation.
• All entries must be built from real LEGO. No clone brands, no third-party custom parts. Physical builds only for this contest.
• Your photo can be an Instagram post that you post to the entry topic. (You must tag us @eurobricks_official)

Choosing Winners

• After entries close, a voting topic of all eligible entries will be opened for five days.
• Every Eurobricks member will get one vote to award to their favourite entry
• You must have joined Eurobricks by February 10th to be eligible to vote

Winners & Prizes

• The entry with the most points will be the First Place winner. They can choose one set with an equivalent value up to 100 Euro as their prize
• A runner up may be announced as the contest progresses

Fine Print

• By entering, you consent to Eurobricks reposting your entry on Eurobricks' social media channels, crediting you.
• Prize values are determined in accordance with German Shop at Home and prizes are subject to availability on the Shop at Home in the winners' local countries. Some back and forth with Eurobricks staff might be required to select an available prize.
• Prizes could take 8-10 weeks to arrive but we will keep you updated as much as we are able.

 

This is the topic for discussion of the contest. Let us know in the comments if you have any questions. Post your entry in the Entry Topic.

I love that lotr vignette lol

Sounds interesting! I might have a go for this one.

Quick question (and I'm probably just being blind here not seeing it) - are the eligible licenses only those which were given regular waves, or do Ideas licenses (such as Doctor Who) also qualify?

Any and all Licenses LEGO has ever done in any form, besides Star Wars (just because Star Wars has its own forum and contest right now).

In a previous contest someone did Spice Girls, which was fine. You could do Nesquik Bunny. We're relaxed about it.

I was combing the rules to try and see if I could sneak star wars in, but it's there. Curse you, I could have done the Beach Troopers in their hot tub from the 2006 game!

Can I just confirm, does licensed include Lego’s own characters, like Ninjago or is it only the properties Lego has licensed from outside the company (Disney, minecraft etc)?

Only properties from outside the company.

Ah well, maybe you can work that into an entry for the May the 4th contest somehow!

No, they can create an account and enter it. As stated in the rules, people can join Eurobricks to enter.

That's not showing up and your account is private so I can't see it on IG either. Is it intended to be an entry?

Sorry, ignore that. 
I thought I had deleted it as the link didn't work.
