There is an interesting new contest at LEGO’s ReBrick website for LEGO Architecture fans. If you enjoy the LEGO Architecture collection, particularly the LEGO Architecture Skyline series, you may have already thought about recreating the skyline of your own favorite city. This contest is your opportunity to enter your model in a contest and for a chance to win some awesome prizes! Details below. 🙂
➡ LEGO ARCHITECTURE CONTEST – OVERVIEW: What place is close to your heart? Create a skyline from your favorite city or town, be it where you grew up, a place you love to visit, a place you fell in love, or even a fantasy city of your own creation! Working in the same style and scale as the LEGO Architecture Skyline series, create your dream skyline and share the story behind it for a chance to win big!
➡ LEGO ARCHITECTURE CONTEST – HOW TO ENTER: Choose a city close to your heart and build a skyline representing this city. Take up to five photos of your creation and submit them to the contest. Make sure to show off all angles of your creation. Use the description field to tell about your skyline – then hit “submit”. When you receive a “Success!” pop-up notification after clicking “submit” on the entry submission page, your entry has successfully been submitted. The ReBrick moderation team will review it within 1-3 working days to make sure it fits all the contest rules.
➡ LEGO ARCHITECTURE CONTEST – RULES: Your entry must be no more than 8 studs wide and 36 studs long. Your entry should be the same size and scale as the current LEGO Architecture Skyline sets. Your city can be historical, modern day, or futuristic. Do not build a skyline specific to a IP world, such as a LEGO Batman, LEGO Harry Potter, or another a popular movie, comic book or book skyline (this includes The LEGO Movie). While your entry can show famous landmarks and buildings, your entry must not contain copies of any existing third party work or creation, or infringements of any third party intellectual property right. Avoid using pieces specific to an IP set or theme. You can enter as many entries as you would like, but only one entry per person will be considered when winners are selected. Use of LEGO Digital Designer to create your entry is allowed, along with photo editing software or adding effects to your entry. Entries must not contain LEGO elements which have been modified from their original form, including painted or cut elements. Entrants must be at least 13 years of age at the time of entry. You can read the rest of the entry guidelines and rules here.
➡ LEGO ARCHITECTURE CONTEST – DEADLINE: You must submit your entry by August 1st, 2017 at 10:00AM EST. If you are not sure what time zone you are in, you can use an online time-zone converter to make sure you don’t miss the deadline.
