Also, isn't that statue GORGEOUS?!??! The pictures on the site are actually from the previous version of Link though, after listening to fan feedback, they went and rehashed him changing his colors, and his head slightly. He looks even better now!

If you haven't watched the livestream pre-order party or checked out their "Collector Club" or even their regular Facebook page, they are giving away (in lottery style) one EXTREMELY rare Skull Kid figurine!

Spoiler!

Part of me is a little snarky that its going for two weeks because those who are nefarious and don't care can create multiple facebook accounts and hedge their bets. With 2 weeks or so, I could write an algorithm and have it run, even spoofing IP addresses to create thousands of my own accounts to do just that, so it stands to reason that those who have no integrity or have differing scruples/morals than I could do the same -- hopefully at least they'll limit it by IP address, but I don't suspect they're going to do that.

Anyway, just figured I'd mention it here -- though I'd be insanely jealous if any of you got it, I'd be much happier than if someone who cheated or just intended to put it on eBay won it. Best of "luck"!

Thanks Knight! A signed card eh? They didn't happen to show it in the stream did they? The statue is gorgeous for sure, I couldn't be happier with it! I got the Exclusive because, hell, if I'm going to pay $500+ for a statue (with S&H), it damn well better light up!

I'll definitely have to make a throwaway Facebook account just for this contest and also put in an entry for for my lady (and one for everyone else in my family...lol no I kid, I kid ). Assuming no one tries out your algorithm idea, about how many entries do you think there could be by the deadline? Just over 500 at this point. Hopefully it stays reasonably low, and any cheaters would be found out if there were suddenly thousands of suspiciously similar posts. Best of "luck" to you too bud! lol!
