    I want to win the Christmas giveaway because out of all the great tee shirts I have, not one is a CobraShadowJoes tee shirt, and who wouldn't want a Predator for Christmas. Nothing says holiday like a giant, hunter alien.

    I love collecting toys because the characters have been a constant in my life for years. You never outgrow a great friendship.

  4. What better way to get my newborn boy (Dec 1st) into collecting toys than with some of NECA's finest? Once he is old enough he can compete with his father to see who gets the best figures, in the meantime, he can show off his tee shirt.

    Three, four, bring it to my door.
    Five, six, satisfy my toy fix.
    Seven, eight, it's my fate.
    Nine, ten, The Sewer Den!

    I was a good boy this year & even wrote that terrible Nightmare-inducing rhyme! Winning the NECA NES Freddy would be a Christmas miracle. I'd be very thankful if the gore-loving guy showed up beneath my tree.

  9. You know you love me, in a purely twitter way! Alexis Durant aka @OiShep

    I deserve something because my small community sucks and I can never find anything, unless purchased online and they tend to overcharge. I love collecting because toys and collectibles have changed so much over time and it's cool to see what's still around (how cheaply they're made or why wasn't this around years ago) and I like representing my fandoms with more than a shirt--cool as they are!

    I deserve this prize because my holidays are filled with combined sadness. You see, my birthday is December 23rd, so I tend to get gifts that are for birthday AND Christmas. Most people get to celebrate these two separately, but not me. So, help put a smile on this Will's face this Christmas!

  11. I used to be a big time collector of the Movie Maniacs line from McFarlane when they were originally being made when I was much younger than most people that picked them all up and of course I had my fair share of TMNT figures from the original line. However after the MM line died I stopped collecting pretty much altogether for years...

    Until one day last year I randomly stumbled across NECA's current output that was just blowing all my MM figures out of the water and ever since then I've been fiendishly picking up anything I can find in the Alien, Predator, and Nightmare on Elm Street lines and pretty much anything here and there I can find in between. Of course my problem there is for some reason my local TRUs in South Jersey seem to be terrible at getting NECA stock in on time and sometimes I don't find figures on the shelf until a month or longer after ship date so I'm always venturing out far to find what I want.

    The reason I'd say I deserve a prize is because unfortunately I just recently have had a medical problem that leaves me stuck at home and on IV meds, so I am unable to go out on the hunt for any of the stuff hitting shelves right now. Luckily I'm not the worst off because right before I found out I was sick I did manage to pick up the 89 Batman and also had the Queen pre-ordered ahead of time, so I do have those to cheer me up. But it would really spread the holiday cheer around here if I found out I won something for once.

    If not though I just wanna say I've been loving reading your reviews since like I said on NECA's Twitter the other day, I've been a long time lurker around all these sites but just now decided to get into the community with all my fellow collectors and nerds.

    And of course Happy Holidays and good luck to all.

    I deserve a gift cause my second half of 2014 was terrible. If it could go wrong it did. But somehow I've managed to be positive through it all.

    The reason I love collection is its the one thing Ive always had. It even more fun now since there are so many people out there just like me. Its been a gateway for so many of us meeting so many awesome people and great friends. Great giveaway and whoever wins enjoy!

    I believe I deserve to win because I love Gi Joe toys. I basically just collect gi Joe's . I have been collecting the Kre-o gi Joe's too. I even buy gi Joe parts on eBay to make my own characters. I hope I win but if I don't I bet the winner will enjoy the toys. Good luck everyone !!

    I've never won a contest before but it never hurts to try! Especially with this cool stuff! I don't care to much on receiving gifts but I do love to collect movie props and toys. It reminds me of the old, happier days, when I was a little girl. My father and I would collect toys and build monster model kits together ☺

    I'd like to win solely because I won't be getting anything for Christmas this year. Friends live in other states and had a falling out with my family a few years back. Just a lonely Christmas, for the second time in a row. I could really use some Christmas cheer coming my way.

    However, good luck to everyone and happy holidays!

  18. I would LOVE to win the Elder Predator V2. After completing the NECA Bioshock line and POTA, the Predator series in next on my bucket list.

    I was never interested in collecting until I discovered NECA and the world of action figures they opened up to me. I first found the Bioshock line and fell in love, I'm a huge fan of Bioshock.
    After discovering that I explored some more and now I am addicted. People call me kinds of negative things but this is something I find joy in and simply do not care. They have joy in blowing money at casinos, I find joy in collecting. Much more rewarding, in my opinion.

    Thanks guys! Good luck to all

  19. Honestly, the reason I NEED to win this Christmas gift set is because I need that NECA 8-Bit Freddy. I already have a 8-Bit Jason but he needs a friend (he killed his last one http://bit.ly/19IFmqC).

  22. Hey, this is a cool thing you're doing! I'm Andy, and you can find me on Twitter @abart01.

    As for why I deserve a Christmas present, I don't -- but I'll enter this giveaway anyway. :)

    I've got what a lot of people might consider a big toy collection (although it pales to many I've seen); this stuff has always just been around since my parents Star Wars toys for Christmas when I was in kindergarten. My current collection is relatively evenly split between Star Wars and GI Joe, but if I had to classify myself it'd be as a Joe collector. It's been fun to transition from enjoying these things as toys when I was a kid to having a grown-up appreciation for the sculptors, artists and engineers who bring this stuff to life today -- while still having them rekindle some of that kid magic we all lose but can never quite get back.

    All of that said, I'd love to have a Data-Viper; I've still never actually seen one, and I've been enamored with it since it was first revealed as part of the 30th line.

    Anyway, it's awesome that you're doing this. Good luck to everyone, and a grats in advance to the winners! Merry Christmas!

    Hey Steve,

    Awesome giveaways! I finally got me a Dutch figure been wanting one for quite some time, now I need Predator to do some battle scenes lol - I had a pretty good childhood growing up with Gijoe, Transformers, Motu, Thundercats & Tmnt. I started collecting once my son was born over 10 years ago. Now that he is older I been getting him all the 30th joes, I wanted for him to have a good childhood like I did. He is loving them as much as I did when I was a kid :)Data Viper & Red Ninja will get plenty of action from us lol. That Gijoe T-shirt is pretty cool too. Thanks for the opportunity. Yojoe!

  24. Brent Wilson bwilson701@gmail.com. I love collecting 7" figures that I stand right next to the DVD or blu-ray they're from. It started with Movie Maniacs, but these days it's NECA putting out highly detailed toys. I'd love a gift, since I'm between jobs and can't buy all the sweet new figures I'd like to just yet.
