Hey folks, Harry here... this time with another fabulous giveaway contest! This contest is easy for you creative types... What we have here to giveaway this time is one of the amazing Sideshow Collectibles that boggles the mind with how cool it is.
The lifesize T-X Prop Replica head and interior of the new Terminator that's after John Connor in this summer's T3: RISE OF THE MACHINES! The replica is done in an exacting 1:1 scale with strobing blue lights like what you see in the movie and the animated gif above, simulating the "breathing effect" that is apparently in the film. It stands a full 15.25 inches high and weighs 15 lbs with it's snazzy black-chrome look. SO... Who do you have to terminate to get one of your own?
No no, that's too tempting, and I'd probably be held liable if you did it, and I'm too delicate for soap-collecting cornholing, but I've got something for you folks to do.
The history of film has had a long line of robotic women. From the original Maria to Galaxina to E.V.E. to well... the T-X, and all the ones in-between. The challenge you have is using your digital artistic skills create a tribute poster to the Robotic Ladies of Film. It can be done in all seriousness, comedic, erotic... whatever, but here's what I ask of you. DO NOT SEND ME THE HIGH RES version of the file... Ok. I want something no larger 8.5" wide by 15" tall using 72 dpi at a medium level of resolution (i.e. Web Displayable) sent to the contest account of Sideshowtoys@AintItCoolMail.Com! The file should be no larger than 200 K. If I love it, I may request a higher resolution copy, but don't volunteer it as the account has a limited size. The due day is by JULY 20TH, 2003 - which means you have slightly less than a month... so get started!
Ok, I sense questions... Let me answer a few of them. Yes, you can collage photos. Yes, you can use your skills as an artist to draw, paint, whatever in the real world, then take a digital photo to enter it into the contest. Yes, you can use construction paper. Yes, you can use that talented friend of yours. You can do it in whatever style you wish. Surrealistic, Modern, Anime, Photographic... WHATEVER, it just must be dedicated to the Robotic Ladies of Film. NO, I will not provide the source material for you.... or even help you with the names of the characters and films. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH... (or most likely read the below Talk Back... heh.)
Anyone can enter and everyone should have fun with this contest! Enjoy! There is a note I must tell you about the prize. The T-X Prop Replicas won't ship till the end of July, first week or two of August, so if you win... be patient, you will get it as soon as Sideshow is ready to ship! OH... That reminds me. In your email, include your Shipping Address just in case you win! The best entries will be featured on the site, but only the winner gets that wondrous head!
Are you grumbling that you haven't an artistic bone in your body? Well, mow a ton of lawns and buy a T-X head by heading over to: Here or Here to order yours now! Or wait till after T3: RISE OF THE MACHINES opens, and judging from the mania of the early reviews, risk the run selling out.
