So after procrastinating a lot and only ever entering once, I finally decided to go through all of the galleries and gave my thoughts on the various figures/toys shown off.

It was actually fun to go through all the different Figuarts and Figures in general, there were so many I had no clue were even released. And it's also fun to revisit a bunch of series through figures in a sense and it reminded me that Tokusatsu Toys and Figures can range from Awesome to Meh to Weird to Why? to Cool.

And also I'd like to say props for you all that keep putting up these galleries, I know it must take a lot of work, time and patience and it's just fun to see what kind of photos and interactions you can come up with.

- - If they fail to respond in 24 hours, we repeat the process
- Once all winners have been selected and they've responded, we will do a front page post with the winners announcement and what they've won.

Items will then be shipped out over the course of the next 2 weeks. Last year we tried to simplify by sending everything to one staff member to send out. That didn't work and took MONTHS to conclude. This year, I personally have all the items and gathered them during the course of the contest (minus one which will be shipped from the contributor personally) which means I ship out four packages and that's it.

Shipping will include tracking and insurance. Once we ship it, we're no longer responsible for it. No "refunds", no item replacements, etc. So once it's shipped and you have the tracking info, be diligent in making sure the package can be obtained at the address you've given us.

Hope that answers any and all questions!

Out of curiosity, do you have a way to make sure people aren't spamming to get more chances?

Posts have to be relevant to the galleries, meaning you can't go "Here's my toku toy box entry" 40+ times

Wow, the prizes are pretty 'nifty' if you know what I mean ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Wait I thought you were only allowed one entry per gallery. With this system you could do as many as you want.

I thought it was one randomly selected poster from the "who posted" list.

They probably read the selected post first to make sure it's on-topic.

Yes. Without going in to details that could then allow creative and technical folks a way to work around it, we have failsafes in place with both automated and physical checks.

You're only allowed one entry per gallery.

If you post in ALL eligible galleries, that means no matter what gallery is randomly selected to then randomly select a post, you have a chance to win.

This is not new. This has been outlined since December 1st. It's why we said "post in every gallery to increase your chances to win".

I think he was saying if someone makes multiple posts in a gallery because of this line:

Quote:

So, say I made fifteen posts in the SS Skull gallery, he's asking would that then increase the odds of one of my posts being selected against someone who only posted once?

But yeah, it's one poster per gallery, basically.

Once a thread is randomly selected, before a post is randomly selected, we'll go through and remove any multiple posts.

EDIT:

Let me clarify. I'm not going to go in and delete discussions. Nor am I going to discourage discussions from taking place. However, only your FIRST POST in each gallery thread that's eligible will count.
