CopMike has gone to the trouble of arranging so many prizes for us

The tin foil-hat theory is that TLG gave him complete 10219 sets for this raffle and he keeps the trains to himself. :devil:

:laugh:

Well here is my container, it is called a "flat rack". A special Maersk version for heavy loads.

It is modelled to look like one of these (only mine is the 20ft version and this is a 40ft one).

Maersk has those containers as you can see! (link to a site with a lot of container info)

The Erdinger guy is already present. He just put a fust of fine Bavarian (german) beer there. The party will start when the train arrives. The stickers are computer cut vinyl ones just like LEGO uses.

B.t.w. I just could remove those L-shaped plates but the original containers are exactly like the size of this container so I think the rules should allow it.

So just in case... But this one is not suitable when the train arrives :)

Here's my entry: The Dwarf-Container

Due to the fact that most of their customers were unsatisfied with their shipping

times, our brave dwarfs had to adept to modern types of transportation.

Therefore they needed to construct a (wooden) container:

However, since the dwarfs are too greedy to pay for transport-insurance, they

always have a guard on board (who can only just look):

We all know animals are routinely carted around in containers, right? Well, our furry Fabuland friends must travel in style!

Ricky and the Walrus therefore present to you the Emerald Overnight:

Animals must have only the finest comfort and refreshments during their transportation: here you can see Rufie Rabbit and Pandora Panda enjoying a mug of ale and a glass of wine respectively.

The roof is removable, just like the System figures' equivalent.

Hope you like it! :sweet:

Thanks again Rick for inspiring this. :wub:

There will be 15 prizes *oh2* , each containing all of the 3 minifigs, like this:

They will be raffled out between all of you that have entered the competition using the rules above.

So everybody has an equal chance regardless of "quality" - so don´t miss this opportunity to get figs from a $120 set for free shipped to you :sweet:!

Now get your fingers into that pile of bricks on your dinner table and start building!

And honestly ...........- isn´t life here at Eurobricks pretty sweet :wink:?!!!

Do the prize minifigs come with the orange vest?

That's amazing. :thumbup: I'm glad this is a raffle and not a competition though. This certainly looks more comfortable than being smacked with a frying pan indeed. And Mrs. Panda also looks a lot better without her face rubbed off. :grin:

A contest with no talent required: I have a shot! :classic:

Here's a table-scrap with leftover Creator house pieces -- it's like home, but on the road! Shutters close for minimal overhang, but then you wouldn't be able to see your friendly neighbor inside. . . .

Thanks for the chance to play!

I’ve seen a million containers.

Possibly the oldest you may find... It comes directly from Ancient Egypt... and it's a dangerous one...

Well, I just had to make a quick one here too :)

It looks like a container at least?

Sadly it can not hold big items inside... but the rules did not say how large items it should be able to store :)

Here's my silly castle container. :blush:

It's made of stone so it could be used as a port-a-fort in case of attack.

I threw this together real quick. I loved trains back in the day, just can't seem to make them fit in my Modular Town.

Here's my entry. Hm....it doesn't really look like a cubic container :sceptic:

IMG_0089.jpg

Because it is a transformable Buffalo! :tongue:

The idea is from the mecha of Power Rangers. I used to build the red dinosaur but I ran out the red bricks

Where's the big mound of gold, eh? Surely no dragon worth its salt would feel at home without one!

Nice rock effects though, Draggy! :thumbup:
