It's definitely been awhile coming, sorry for that!

Contest has been invented by my 6 year-old, and she will also be the judge. We want to see some pictures of your cool toys! It doesn't matter if you own them or not! In the interest of fairness, I won't tell you what it is that she likes.

Rules are as follows:

Your post must have "yes" in it
post must include a picture of what you think is a "cool" toy
You can't post pictures that other people have already posted (obviously)

Must have been a member for at least ten days
You must start another contest of your own when you win

Contest ends on April 20th at 6 PM! I'm having difficulties posting the picture of the prizes, but I will post it as soon as I get it working again.

[MantisFang]

Yes!

Last time I lost because I was too new.
I hope your daughter can find it in her heart to see how cool this puppy is.

Glad you waited a while, hope at this point I don't get disqualified again. Am I even eligible yet? {Sob}

Yes

[thenerdieststore]

Yes. Got this the other day. It is a pokemon mini playset!

 

[Flashbax]

Yes! This right now is a fave of mine in my office, a large 3 1/2' Giant Squid stuffed Toy. I still have to get the time to put his tentacles out in attack mode.

Holy shit you guys are already rocking this.

I don't see that variant up on his shop site maxtoyco.com
but his pieces go for 35-150 depending on the size/custom job.

Do you personally find that Monster High playset to be a cool toy?

Accept the possible joke/chasm or dislike this...
Im going to take the Finnish way on this and get pissed.




Btw Draz do you mind if i post my coolest toy pic here and say No! instead of Yes! So i wont be participating cause i honestly im not into runnin one of these myself. Too much organizing mostly cause of prizes...

[steverotters]

Yes.  Don't you?

 

You can take it as a joke if you want... like I was intentionally trying to pick something a 6 year old girl would like based on this line: "Contest has been invented by my 6 year-old, and she will also be the judge." 

 

But seriously, Monster High is a very cool and successful toyline.  I like their figures a lot, especially the pets/companion figures.

If you like it, that's fine. Yes, she's a kid, but she isn't all that "conventional" so to speak. Check my "ugly contest" I ran that she also judged!

Jesse feel free to post! I actually love seeing new stuff. So far I didn't know about any of the stuff that's been posted thus far and I think it's all pretty great.

[steverotters]

Found it.  Cool contest.  Good job with the prize pack on that too. 

 

http://www.littlerub...topic=208786

 

I noticed lots of people were talking about what your daughter would find "ugly" since she is the judge.

 

Anyway, that is all I was doing.  But YES I think Monster High is cool, regardless. 

 

The coolest Monster High items that I personally own are both versions of Chewlian who is the pet of Venus McFlytrap. 

 

However, the High School is pretty much the Holy Grail of Monster High collectors.  It was $120 retail, now quite rare, and still very cool.   Just look at that thing and think of the customizing possibilities.  You could display MIMPs or just about anything in it.
