With over 1,000 entries to the LEGO Moments in Space contest, our judges were blown away by the creativity and enthusiasm that all the participants showed in their creations.
In fact, they were so blown away by all the entries that they wanted to reward one additional winner, who will receive an honourable mention and a prize package equal to that of a Runner Up.
Congratulations once again to all the participants! We can't wait to see the Grand Prize Winner's model be adapted into an official Gift with Purchase set!

What's next for Contests Beta?
We're thrilled at the tremendous response that the Contests Beta had so far following just two contests. In fact, it's been so popular that many of you are asking when the next contest will be held.
Unfortunately, we don't have a next contest planned right this moment. Now we will take some time to evaluate Contests Beta and see what has worked, what hasn't and what we might want to change in the future . We will of course let you all know when a new contest launches.
