Mixels competition update
Posted by Huw,
I've just taken a look at the entries to the competition in the flickr pool and I was pleased to see so many, and such a wide variety of weird and wonderful creatures. Your imagination, the versatility of the Mixels sets, and I guess LEGO in general, never ceases to amaze me!

Who are the judges? Are they the same of the first competition?
Probably yes, with a couple of others.
Are the entries being judged purely as an 'alternate build' or should they fit in with the 'mixels' theme? The example used above is a fantastic build, but what appear to be rocket boosters are not really in-keeping with the biologic premise of the mixels sets. Does that matter? Would, for example, a spaceship made out of the chosen sets be judged on an equal footing as all the weird and wacky mixels that make up all of the current entries?
So many more deserving high quality entries this time around, yet less prizes to go round (albeit the prizes are worth so much more this time). Clever tactic to make people more determined and produce high quality entries? I pity the judges who will have to make the final decision :-)
^^ The only requirement is to build a 'Mixels 'Max' monster'. I would not say that keeping it 'biological' is necessary, but unless the spaceship has eyes or something it probably wouldn't meet that requirement.
I still can't find any S 2 Mixels... :o(
Is it me or does this guy look like Shockwave?
Probably going to get S2 Mixels this week with TLM. Probably. Stay on target...
Lots of great entries so far, still waiting on my shipment. Hopefully tomorrow.
Wow, some of those entries are really cool. My favorite was the blue one that looked like a walrus.
Just been on to put another entry in the group and whoa nelly are there some amazing constructions on there. I'll be amazed if I get any prize with the massively high standard of entries.
I said it of the last round, but it's even truer now, I do not envy the judges one little bit!
Hey, Huw, i don't know if your still paying attention to this feed, but if so, i was curious if a robot was allowed seeing that in the original post it said "monster". Now I can see that the creature above could be called as a monster or a robot, but is a robot, robot allowed?
oops just read comments above never mind
