Guess what the REAL Darth Mater will auction for this Saturday at the CAAF-Mattel Dream Halloween event and win next best thing!

We won’t be giving away a Darth Mater or even anything closely resembling this beacon of toy art. Darth Mater was conceived by geniuses and brought to life by craftsman, artisans and brilliant engineers, our giveaway is more impressive because it was created in pretty much the same 500 hours it took to build Darth Mater, only I needed the same 500 hours because I am a clod.

Fortunately, I had a great looking diecast car to start with – introducing the world’s only Take Five a Day Lightning Ramone sponsored by Children’s Toy Closet (CTC). This is a one-of-kind-item because I am exhausted after working on this for 500 hours. I’m done. I’m out. Besides, where else can you own something created by someone with meat hooks for hands … and sadly, it’s just a simile as that would actually be useful. No, I can actually set fire to plumbing with only my bare hands so it’s actually a miracle I did not somehow smash all the tires or break all the windows on this thing …

Contest is very simple.

Between now and MIDNIGHT Friday October 25, 2008 – Pacific Daylight time (US – West Coast) – guess the FINAL winning bid for Darth Mater at the CAAF Auction (Saturday, October 26, 2008).

Whoops, since I couldn’t read a calendar correctly, we’ll take contest entries until 2 PM PDT or 5 PM EDT 10/25/2008 – overseas readers have to adjust accordingly, thanks. Sorry.

Like the PRICE IS RIGHT, your guess must be the closest without going over the actual winning bid. While I do not have confirmation, it is rumored John Lasseter and George Lucas are sending people to bid … so don’t guess $799.99 …

And even better news, the contest winner will also win something of actual value – some of the new Min’s including Mini Mack courtesy of Children’s Toy Closet and not just a CAR I slapped some tampo decals on 🙂
