I know I said I would not do another giveaway but here I am again.

The prize - a Jungle Strike Humvee with Rollbar

You must supply at least 3 photos of the following to qualify to enter

1. A picture of a GI Joe toy or toys you are putting into a Toys For Tots charity barrel. You need to also have a picture of the receipt for said toy(s). While I am not telling you what to put in there, I ask you be generous and not just put one single carded figure in. Remember this is a charity barrel. (To show we can give back in this hobby)

2. A picture of you as a kid with your Joes. AS A KID!! not as a 30 year old playing like a 10 year old. (To show where the hobby came from)

3. A picture of a kid with a parent looking at Joes in a store. (To show where the hobby is going)

4. A picture of an attractive, > 18 yo girl with GI Joes - nothing dirty. (To show cute girls like Joes too)

5. A picture of at least 20 Joes/Cobras doing a conga line around another group of 4 figures doing the YMCA. (Just because it is silly)

Post your pics in this thread.

Deadline is Nov 30 - 5 pm Pacific.

Winner will be drawn from qualifing entries.

Cool! Dockingbay strikes again!

I'm gonna opt out on this one, NOT at Nick's request, (y'know, repeat winners, conspiracy theories, etc. It just don't look good.) but I've seen the Humvee and it ROCKS! (And I hate Humvees!) :D



5. A picture of at least 20 Joes/Cobras doing a conga line around another group of 4 figures doing the YMCA.
Just a heads up, guys - it's difficult, but not impossible, to get your Joes to YMCA. Their elbows just aren't really made for that stunt. :D

The Marine in me would like it to be Toys For Tots. They set up at many retailers across the country. This includes KB, TRU, Best Buy and Office Depot

Best contest ever and it can do some good I've got to enter.
PS.it's the holidays donate to toys for tots anyways or toys for teens.Not for gain,because if you can afford to collect, you can afford to help.................... KIDS.......................... play with toys.We all collect because of childhood memories.All kids deserve these memories.Not to preach,or be a do gooder.However I hope you all know this is true.

ok well 1st- NICE contest-!
i dont know if ill go to all the trouble , but some of it for sure-
for one - i get a LOT of toys besides joes from my hauling/junk biz, i am all year round giving toys to kids who are poor. this year i am gonna give a bunch open joes to a couple of these kids, but not buying. (tunnel rats and stuff like that ill give out)
it is really a good thing- these kids need stuff to stimulate their minds, and some of these young mothers i know, and here (everyewhere) a LOT of poor latinos that just can't afford toys for the kids- i bring toys to the freebox in the park and stuff like that.
- number two is a really tough one, i dont think i could find that, oh wel.
some of those are pretty funny there dockingbay, this is a funny contest! yeeha!


4. A picture of an attractive, > 18 yo girl with GI Joes - nothing dirty. (To show cute girls like Joes too)

but that one- ohhh boy, you got me started!!!! let's just say i am gonna do this part right!!!

you can hate my guts, but this is a KILLER idea for a little website section- girls with joes!!!
i will be getting some HOTTIE (not XXX) photos!! hehehhehe finally an excuse to get a pic of some of these girls i know ahahahahahahahahahhahah!!!


- oh nice i see 3 out of 5 ! very good way to have it!

i couldnt figure how to shrink the files to fit in the thumbnails so i made a page for the contest. i hope its ok.

http://www.geocities.com/origjdog1982/contesthummer.html
thanks again.

also if its not ok let me know.


its kinda slow sometimes so you might have to refresh the page if not all pics show the 1st time (there are supposed to be 7 pictures). the YMCA part is done by 4 versions of snake eyes.

btw the girls playen with gun-ho, guile, and a viper of somesorts (not sure which one) in case you were wondering.

Oh well, I had hoped for some more entries - I thought seeing all the pictures would be fun for people but I guess not.

So a put the two names in a hat, a co-worker drew and the winner is Crimson Viper Commander.

PM or email me your address.

well dock i definitely think this was a great contest- and you inspired a cool idea for a page on my site- "Do Girls like Gijoe?" !!!
thanks!

-ps maybe not many entries, but look at the number of thread views-
A LOT of people took a look at least!

I would have entered, but I was dumb and misread the contest. I thought we needed all 5 pictures, it wasn't until yesterday morning I saw that we needed only 3... I might have been able to enter if I had realized this sooner.

Sorry for not taking part in the contest. I'll read more carefully next time!
