Today, we kick off the fifth of many giveaways that will take place all month long. The next prize up for grabs is a Gentle Giant AT-AT Mini Bookends Set! Digitally sculpted by the master artisans at Gentle Giant Ltd., the AT AT Mini Bookends features the mechanical monstrosities as they were seen traversing the terrain on the planet Hoth in pursuit of the Rebel Alliance. Crafted using only the highest quality polystone, each limited-edition hand-painted bookend set comes individually numbered and is packed with a matching certificate of authenticity.
We’ll make this one easy to enter. Just send us an e-mail to YodasnewsAnniversary@gmail.com with the subject “Happy 12 Year – Gentle Giant Mini Bookends” and we will pick one person at random on 2/16/2016 to take home the prize! Due to the weight of this item, this giveaway is only open to the USA and Canada. Don’t worry, we will have plenty of prizes coming up that ship worldwide.
You MUST include your full name and mailing address for the prize in the email for it to count. You may enter once per 24 hours from 2/9/2016 to 2/15/2016 11:59EST.
