December Transformation Challenge: DETAILS!

All the details are up for the December Challenge. Click here to see the page, or just read about it here.

Holiday Transformation Challenge
The final Reasonably Clever Challenge of 2007 is here!

Your job? Build a Holiday Themed Transformer out of LEGO bricks!

Maybe you'll make a Decpticon tree that changes into a robot. Maybe you'll create an Autobot Santa who is also his own sleigh.

Use your imagination, or just watch all those sappy Christmas movies that are on constant rotation on TV these days and drink heavily. It's all the same to us!

Whatever you build, you need to send (CLEAR!) photos of it, along with a short text description to bat_hero@hotmail.com by
Midnight, December 31st!

Entries will be judged on three criteria:

Holiday Mode (25 points)
Robot/Alternate Mode
(25 points)
Coolness (50 points)

Enter as often as you like, international entries are welcome.

Why bother? Because you might just win...

1st Prize: LEGO set 6208: Star Wars B-Wing Fighter!
(no box)

or one of THREE 2nd prizes of a Bionicle Inaka 8727 -Toa Jaller

What are you waiting for? Time's running out...go BUILD!

Oh! And here are a couple of Wallpapers for your desktop. Each is at 800x600. Click to open.

Does the transformer have to be transformer themed? As in does it have to be related to the actual transformers? Or can we enter even if we don't know anything about transformers? (Like me)

The model you build doesn't have to tie into the existing Transformer storylines or anything. It just needs to be a model that changes from one thing (usually a robot or humanoid form) into another (NOT a robot or human)

Hopefully we'll get a couple of quick entries to show what I'm looking for. :-\

Well, this will be a definite challenge. I've already got a couple ideas, just need to figure out how to make them transform.

is there any way you could make a decepticon wallpaper

Oh, thankyou Chris, I know EXACTLY what I'm building!

Just to let you know it might be slightly politically incorrect.

Yikes. Another contest that's too hard to do. I can't even begin to figure out how to make one that transforms! hehe

Oh, it's easy. Just start with the basic object. Then take each part and turn it into a limb. Then just fill in the details!
