Win some Skylanders toys just for liking me

by Dan on January 11, 2012

I’ll be frank: I could use some higher “Like” numbers over at Facebook, and you can help with that. I am grateful for the support here on the site and on Twitter as well, but the Powers That Be asked why my Likes were so low on Facebook, and I said…you know, I don’t know. I do FB-only code drops, I answer people’s questions, I try to be active…but it’s only around 3000 people, while Twitter is over 16K. It’s quite a discrepancy.

So, how about a giveaway? I know there is a bit of a Skylanders shortage at the moment — lots of stores are currently sold out. The restocks are on the way, but in the meantime, I have acquired two 3-packs that I will give away to one of my Facebook fans.

Drobot and Flameslinger are two of my favorites. No offense to Stump Smash.

Eruptor's funny, Bash is tough, and Chop Chop has surprisingly high defense.

If you have already clicked Like, you’re good — consider yourself entered. I didn’t want to penalize anybody who has already shown the love, so all existing fans are eligible. But if you haven’t clicked Like, here’s a nice bribe. I’ll fish out one name at random from all the Likes on Wednesday, January 18, and I’ll contact you on Facebook.

And hey, if you already clicked Like, force a friend Like the page so you can take the prize. This is the internet, dude. We make our own rules. (And thanks for the support.)

UPDATE 1/17: Thanks to Manuel Moreno from El Paso TX for the support — watch for your toys next week!

    “You like me!  You really like me!”  (Sorry, I had to do an obligatory Sally Field/Gidget joke…)

    Well, I might just have to cave and buy a power portal for my PC (I’ve kinda been thinking about getting it if I had the money).

    I’m pretty sure I already have you “liked” on my account, but I’ll check the family accounts in the morning and add them. The more the merrier!!! ;-)

    Cool. I just picked up a copy of Skylanders (Fry’s had it for $10 off last weekend). Haven’t played it yet (still finishing GoW 3) but I’m hoping to get to it this weekend.

    Almost afraid to win. I hear that Skylanders is addicting. My son has been asking for it. Will probably pick it up for his birthday.

    This contest was way too hard to enter /sarcasm

    SO who won?  Just how many likes did you get?  It does not appear to be all that many.

  • Steve Huang

    I hope I win . I really want these figures. :)

    There’s too much of me to go around, I’m afraid.
