Scouty Posted May 17, 2007 Posted by Kamino on his website: Well here is how you enter to win your Gold (14 Karat) 3P0, as laid out in this issue of the LEGO Magazine:Send a letter or postcard with your name, Age, Address and Daytime phone number to: Golden C-3P0 Contest P.O. Box 1179 Enfield, CT 06083 USA All entries must be received by November 1st, 2007 Good luck, 5 solid gold droids are available and will be chosen randomly from all the entries received, and announced on www.LEGO.com/STARWARS in December, 2007! According to the fine print the little droid is valued at $1200.00. Not too bad a prize. Also the Magazine states that the HUNT IS ON for the gold chrome figures too, so open your sets with anticipation. Lego.com Link Yay! Unfortunately everything has to be mailed. 1,200$, that's alot. Oh, and the HUNT IS ON for the plastic guys! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Starwars4J Posted May 17, 2007 Oh, and the HUNT IS ON for the plastic guys! Nope, these are the full gold ones *sweet* I just wish I knew if the Ep 1 sets that are being released now will be eligible for the chrome 3POs, or if that starts on a certain date Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sam89 Posted May 17, 2007 Are we sure this is valid for people outside the US? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scouty Posted May 17, 2007 That is what Kamino said: No, the 14K gold droids is open to ALL Some scans! Some very large pictures and some comics as well as a movie contest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Pete Posted May 17, 2007 Are we sure this is valid for people outside the US? well, it doesn't expressly state that it's US only ... so, for the cost of sending a postcard to the US, I think it's worth the risk! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Starwars4J Posted May 20, 2007 I hope you are right,I really didn't want to buy the imperial landing craft just so I could maybe get a C3PO :-) Hehe Of course the Imperial Landing craft is big enough I actually meant the New 2007 line like the NS,SI, Hoth and all that It's not that I know one way or the other, I'm just waiting for verification of what we had been told earlier. However I'm confused now. You said in the first post, specifically the ILC, but now you say the newer sets that aren't released yet? Which did you mean?

Piranha Posted May 20, 2007 Sorry I should edit that,that was a response to copmike about other large sets What I meant was most of the C3POs should be in that set not all of them Most of them could be 7,000 and the other 3,000 could be in the New upcoming sets 7,000 is just an example My apologies Piranha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blueandwhite Posted May 21, 2007 I bet this contest is only open to US residents though :-( . Still, when you consider how low the odds are, it really doesn't make much difference anyways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scouty Posted May 22, 2007 Unfortunately, blueandwhite...it is:(. Anyhoo, I was under the impression that all the C-3PO's are going to be randomly distributed into all of the newer sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
