Kotobukiya Prizes At SDCC 2009 Posted By Justin on July 9, 2009
Check out this latest update from the main site that details what Kotobukiya will have in store for fans in attendance at this year's San Diego Comic-Con:
"Kotobukiya announces a massive San Diego Comic-Con event with prizes totaling over $25,000.00 in value! Beginning on Thursday July 23rd at 11am, Koto will hold a special event every hour at their booth, such as behind-the-scenes presentations, new license announcements, live podcasts, and more. Accompanying each hourly event will be a chance for fans to compete in trivia challenges and walk away with great Kotobukiya collectible merchandise as prizes, with individual values up to $200.00. Each day's prizes will include at least one sold-out Iron Man Movie Fine Art Statue, Bishoujo Statues, Star Wars: The Clone Wars goods, and many others (check out starwars.com's master Comic-Con schedule here).
Aside from the hourly events, there will be one daily Grand Prize awarded. Thursday through Sunday, winners of the daily drawings will receive a one-of-a kind prototype used in the creation of a Kotobukiya toy, prizes worth thousands of dollars! Of special interest to Star Wars fans will be Saturday's grand prize -- a Clone Wars Captain Rex ARTFX+ statue prototype!! The drawing will be made by members of the 501st Legion, and the winner will be announced by Tom "Yoda" Kane!"
I may not be a fan of eating sushi, but next to the Star Wars lightsaber lamps, these chop sticks have got to be the coolest "implementation" of a lightsaber in a practical real-world setting.
