Find a Droid, Win a Prize

by Paul

legoc-3po001.jpgApparently this is Lego news week or something. Action-Figure.com had a recent news post stating that Lego’s way of celebrating the 30th Anniversary of Star Wars is by having a ,”These are the Droids You’re Looking For” promotion. In June, Lego will stuff 10,000 metallic gold C-3POs in random Lego sets. If you find one, then you can enter the contest. The winner will recieve a special prize pack, but no details have been released on it. Whatever it is, I’m sure it’s good.

Not only is this sure to move a lot of Lego sets off the shelves, but if you get one of these figures you also have an rather rare version of C-3PO that so far hasn’t been produced (they’ve only got a gold colored one, not a shiny metal version). If anyone wants to donate one to me that they don’t want, I’d be totally grateful and maybe I’d do a R2-D2 impersonation for you. I hear it’s really quite good and worth giving up your C-3PO for.
