In conjunction with Auto Assembly 2011, we here at TheTransformers.Net are giving away a fabulous prize to your UK Transformers fans. We have a Masterpiece Rodimus to offer up to the lucky winner of our competition, details of which were advertised on our flyers at Auto Assembly 2011.

If you’ve come here from seeing one of our flyers at AA, then welcome – we love you one and all. If however you’ve come here from another source, such as a link, Google or the kind words of a friend, we love you too (possibly not quite as much, we’ll decide later).

Anyhow – onto the competition. In order to stand a chance of winning this great (and it is a thing of beauty) prize then all you have to do is sign up to our new forum and post in the competition thread. After the competition end date (September 2nd) we’ll randomly select one of the posters as the winner of this great prize.

Regulars to our site may notice that this is a new forum, as our old one (TheTF.Net) has been closed down and moved over to TheTransformers.Net. TheTF.Net will remain live for all eternity as a homage to the greatness that it was, but this new forum on our main website will grow and grow as members migrate and new members find us – hence the competition to help promote it 😉

We should point out at this stage that staff members of our forum, and staff members of AA, are not allowed to enter… sorry chaps.

Once the lucky winner has been selected, we’ll contact them to get their UK based address and will order the toy for them to be sent out as soon as it’s available (release dates pending of course).

How cool does that sound? All you need to do is sign up to a forum and post in a thread – and if you’re already a member of the forum then half the work’s done for you!

You can find the forum thread here – just post once in the thread and that will register your entry into the competition; you don’t need to post again in that thread, but you can post in other parts of the forum and chat to our friendly, if not slightly inebriated, forum members.

I was speaking to Simes from Auto Assembly this week and he kindly offered to give us at TheTransformers.Net a slot in the busy AA schedule for a forum meet. So if anyone from our forum wants to meet up and put a beard to the username, you can do so at Auto Assembly on the Saturday, between 6-7pm.

Simes also wanted me to mention that pre-registration for the convention has just closed (which if you’ve been on another planet for the last few months is this weekend, Saturday AND Sunday, in Birmingham). There are still passes available on the door though, so you can get there early and still get in.

Hopefully we’ll all see you there!
