The Holidaze Contest : Winner Announced!

The first official Holidaze Contest has come to an end!  It was an absolute blast seeing so many of you share images on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.  In total, I received well over 1,000 entries and I can't thank you enough for getting involved and being so interactive.  This was surely a battle between 3 or 4 active users.  One Instagram user posted over 150 times, another over 70, with two others not being too far behind.  I admire that type of dedication and, believe me, I wish I could pick each and every one of you to be the winner!  In the end, it all came down to Mini-Web-Tool's Random Name Picker.  In the fairest way possible, a winner was chosen and will no be contacted to receive a MOC NECA NES 8-Bit Jason Voorhees Mego Figure!  I had so much fun doing this contest, that a 2nd one may very well be on the horizon.

Holidaze Contest : You Can Win NECA Mego 8-Bit Jason!

It's Saturday.... The... 13th!!  Um, that doesn't work..

Ah well..

As I mentioned in The 2013 Holidaze Halloween Countdown Intro, I'll be holding my first contest this Halloween season.  Well, if you're following me on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, they you already know that this contest has already begun!!  That's right, up for grabs is an NECA Mego NES 8-Bit Jason figure!!  If you're unfamiliar with 8-Bit Jason Voorhees, here's a bit of a refresher.  Remember when Friday the 13th was released on Nintendo?  Remember that weird color combination creators used for Jason's likeness?  It was a contrast between turquoise and purple, everything that Jason wasn't in the feature films, and wasn't much to talk about... until last year.  When NECA released a SDCC exclusive Jason figure, featured in his NES colors, the geeky world went wild.  Why was this now so popular?  I honestly couldn't tell you.  There's just something about nostalgia that sparks interest and reignites our childhood into a frenzy.  All of a sudden, Jason Voorhees in blue and purple was a hot commodity and sales went through the roof.  Unfortunately, I never did track down the original SDCC exclusive, but NECA recently released a different, even-better, NES 8-Bit Jason in Mego form.  He's bigger, cooler, and could totally be yours!  How do you win NES Jason?  It's easy!
