Alternate Universe Customizing Contest Sm.jpg

Our next Minimate Customizing Contest is here!

This time, the theme is Alternate Universe Versions. Create a custom Minimate based on an existing alternate universe (like Age of Apocalypse or Elseworlds) or come up with your own completely original take.

All entries must be brand new creations starting from today. Use the following link to upload a photo of your custom by Monday, June 3rd: https://forms.gle/SGLVcZTwtrYZF9mS6

Feel free to share it here too!

On June 4th, I’ll post a gallery of all entries and open up voting.

Prizes:
🥇 1st Place: $30 Luke’s Toy Store gift certificate
🥈 2nd Place: $20 gift certificate
🥉 3rd Place: $10 gift certificate
🎲 One random entry: $10 gift certificate

One entry per person.

You can go simple or all out. No paint, full paint, stickers, sculpting, anything goes.

Time to dig through your parts and start building.

I have... so many for this exact thing.

@luke314pi can I post multiple? Then you can just pick your favorite as my entry?

I have Marvel, DC, and Aliens Vs Predator Vs Terminator Vs Horror Icons, though Marvel and DC are better done. DC may be the way to go... Hmm....

Pick your own entry like everyone else. He's already putting in the effort to run a contest. He doesn't need to judge your internal one for you.

Sometimes, Navan.

Didn't translate to print well. LOL An empty exclamation. Should have ended with "..."

What if you were Luke and you put up this contest and then everyone wanted the Navan treatment, and you had to judge 20 entries for each participant before the thing even started? You're a nice guy buy you come up with really weird asks sometimes. 

That's all I have to say. I'm not going to start an argument with you.

Oh, no. You already did start an argument. Kinda unfair to be rude to someone, and then back away, no?

Sorry I was excited for something, man. Sorry I saw this thing that I have been doing for years, and thought, 'wow, I can contribute, I can participate, I can show people some of my ideas,' and just did not know what to toss in.

To answer your question? If I was working on a contest that had, so far, not a lot of engagement and someone asked a simple question or for an opinion or thought, I would genuinely be happy to see it. Unsolicited, but also, if I was in someone's contest, and someone asked a question about how to participate, I certainly would not talk for that contest owner on their behalf, that would be kinda presumptuous of me, but hey, maybe that is just me.

And sorry for my weird asks. Like to see old stickers re-released for sale, or to try and see renewed work in certain decal threads, or contests, trying to help people here. I did not realize, you know, trying to help others here, or to help Minimates, was 'weird.'

So, my bad. Sorry I got excited. Came back from a vacation, found out my dad had literal heart surgery while I was gone, had some stem shoved up an artery to try and fix his (returned) afib, been kinda in some dumps, sorry I got excited for an excuse to be creative. Sorry for trying to talk to people. My bad.

Thanks.

Edit: You know what, forget it. Nevermind. 

I was excited and interested, and faced with indecision. Was not any kind of intent to seek any kind of preferential treatment or to otherwise bog anyone down. I have frustration with that simple intent, with that attempted question, being met with insulting dismissal when I was acting in effort, in good faith, but hey, maybe it was not meant in the tone that it, to me, reads.

Either way, I don't care, now. Have fun with the contest. Hope there are some good entries. Good luck.

Thank you for the response, but I believe I will be abstaining. Best of luck to those who enter.

hey guys, things are hard enough right now and engagement keeps this place alive. Can we not dim each other's shines? I would hate to see this place less active than it is right now.

 

I'm just kicking myself because I've been posting customs for a bit and now I'm kind of out of ideas, lol. My timing, as usual, sucks

I've been wracking my brain for some ideas, and came up with one that I find amusing - but just don't have the parts to hand for them currently :(

I have a literal thousand Minimates on hand for backstock. DM me what you need, and if I have it, I will send it to you free of cost.

I agree.

 

On point, maybe you can take a second crack at a previous idea. That was my original inclination.
