luke314pi Posted June 25, 2010 Author Share Posted June 25, 2010 I received the last of the entries today. I will get these sorted out this weekend, and get a group photo taken. The first wave of auctions will start early next week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted June 27, 2010 Author Share Posted June 27, 2010 Group photo! You might see some customs in the photo that have not been posted yet, as some people sent additional customs, and we also had one anonymous contributor. Larger pictures of these customs will be coming soon. Also the group shot doesn't show all of the cool extra accessories that come with many of these customs. Everyone that participated should be extremely proud of the customs they have made. In person, these all look absolutely stunning. The camera cannot do it justice. There are several customs in this group that I will definitely be bidding on. Auctions will start tomorrow, and I will post a link here, as well as send out press releases to the major toy news outlets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groundhog7s Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Awesome looking stuff. I just wished I'd had the time to finish mine. There's nothing like putting a bunch of effort, time, money and parts into something with nothing to show for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punisher Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Wow! The new additions and the overall turnout is just wonderful. I would love to see some pics of the new ones. Are you going to be listing these in sets of two? 30 some seems like a hefty amount of auctions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcastick Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 This I believe is the best group of customs for the Charitymates project to date!!! Superb work guys and happy bidding!

luke314pi Posted June 28, 2010 Author Share Posted June 28, 2010 The first wave of auctions is now live! They are 5 day auctions, and each one has a minimum bid of $10. You can see them on my seller page here: Charitymates Auctions Among the auctions is a set of four customs from an anonymous donor called the Construction Crew. Here is a larger pic of this set: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Luke, you CAN take mine out. It's not a big deal, they go and and in fairly simply. I assume you saw how the try just comes out. It will yield better shots and you can get more for the auction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will yield better shots and you can get more for the auction. Will do. Could someone post a link to the auctions on the Raving Toy Maniac boards? I wouldn't be able to do it until tomorrow, and I would like to get the link out there today if possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 It's not the RTM boards, but I just posted it at Fwoosh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted June 29, 2010 Author Share Posted June 29, 2010 Thanks punisher! I added a post at the RTM boards, and hopefully some of the news outlets will post the press release today. I see some bids are starting to roll in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcastick Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 I posted the auctions on facebook and deviantart.....so here's hoping for more bids! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Really like the Construction Crew set. Whomever made them should be proud of their work. And I love that group shot. Such a great array of robots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Here's a question. If we end up buying our own items back, do we get free shipping? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 I'm not quite sure that's fair to ask Luke to eat the shipping cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 (edited) Why? I already paid to ship it out there once. I paid to get it back. Why do I need to pay return shipping?

Rad Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Why? I already paid to ship it out there once. I paid to get it back. Why do I need to pay return shipping? (taking devil's advocate here people) It's for charity. You are not the charity. Don't be so selfish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted July 1, 2010 Author Share Posted July 1, 2010 Two days left to bid! And just to clarify, everyone has to pay shipping, no matter which custom they happen to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
