If your favorite Thanksgiving Day bird isn’t turkey…but penguin…you’re in luck! We’re going to be giving away two sets of October Toys’ Gwin – Series 3. How can we do that?!?!, you may ask. Well, the fine folks at October Toys have made it all possible.
We’re only asking you to answer one little question. What artist would like to see design a Gwin?
Answer that question in the comments section of this post and include your email address in the proper field. The contest will run through November 26th at 11:59PM EST. The winners will be chosen randomly and we’re asking that only those living in the continental US enter. Good luck!
Huhm…too many choices! I would choose Jeff Koons as has used a lot of toy influences in his recent work and he picks colors like no one. Takashi Murakami would be awesome too but maybe too easy of a pick, as he is already know for his anime influences. For something more surreal and avant-garde my vote would go to Damien Hirst as I bet he would come up with something that would make everyone go WOW!

I'd love to see Julie West do one. She just did an amazing Mad*L and I'm curious to see what she'd do with a Gwin.

Can we list more than one artist? If we only have to choose one, Thomas Han's the man.
If we can list multiple: Tristan Eaton, Jon Burgerman, Jeff Soto, anyone from DOMA, Tim Biskup, ooh! David Flores!

Well I suggest JOKER-ihu, his use of negative-positive space is complex and inviting.
