Honestly, it has some pretty significant quality issues, especially in the solvent-cemented joints, that make it look not-so-good close up (I am unskilled acrylic fabricator :<). However, it's quite lovely from far away!
The project is only half finished. I'm still planning to construct a rotating lighted platform for it to be displayed on. I think it will make a nice prize when all is said and done.
GIGANTIC update in the first post, and I also updated the schedule. You guys are all amazing, I swear, with how much stuff you're giving away to help PCF this year. Thank you all so, so much! <3
Celdia: Sadly I had to remove your Journey to Silius perlers, because the game has been taken off the schedule.
CharonCaori: It would be extremely generous of you to donate a Wii U; as others have said, we would love it as a prize. Also, sorry for your loss.
Chrno: I know you said you weren't sure about the skateboard deck anymore--did you have any luck finding an artist, or should I remove it from the prizes list? Even if we can't have it as a prize this year, maybe we'll get a chance sometime in the future.
GaryStorkamp: Thank you for providing us with all these amazing prints!
Mirrormn: TRIFORCE OMG
MURPHAGATOR!: You may not have made them, but your prizes are still very appreciated. Thank you!
PixelArrow: Yes, we'd love any artwork you make! Thank you!
pksage: Those perlers are beautiful! Please pass along all of our thanks to Kallid, he did some awesome work!
shotgunninja: Paper Mario isn't being played this marathon, so I put your controller with Super Mario RPG. I know it's SNES and not N64, but I was thinking along the lines of Mario RPGs... :p If you want me to move it somewhere else, just ask.
Surreallemming: Thanks again for all the Steam games, they are fantastic.
Tom Folino: ANOTHER TRIFORCE OMG
ummeiko: Don't worry about it--glad to hear things are going so well for you. Good luck planning your wedding! It's fun and frustrating at the same time, isn't it?

I talked to Mike about it and decided that it were best to take it off the list. I still want to put forward a prize for the block though if I can find one quick enough.
Are you still looking for more prize donations? I have a (really random) handful of complete/mint games that I would be more than willing to contribute.
I have an extra CIB copy of Sonic the Hedgehog (Sega Classic edition, no real difference) for the Genesis that I am willing to part with for the grab bag or a Sonic prize.
[PS1] Tigger's Honey Hunt (don't stop reading here, there are better games below...)
[PS2] Metal Gear Solid 3 Sega Genesis Collection Wild Arms 3 24: The Game Silpheed: The Lost Planet Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law Radiata Stories (sealed) Drakengard (sealed)
[Xbox] Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Chaos Bleeds
[Xbox 360] Project Gotham Racing 4 (sealed) Deus Ex: Human Revolution Lollipop Chainsaw Gears of War 3 Mass Effect 3 (w/unused online pass)
I'm also willing to supply codes to my Xbox Live Indie Games (easiest link here). Not as illustrious as Steam games as they are only a $1 US each, but I can donate 5 sets of codes (4 games in each set) that could be given out randomly (say spot awards for poignant or witty comments by whoever is reading donations).
If anybody still cares about hand drawings, my sister is apparently drawing stuff randomly. I'm too lazy to get pictures this time around, so I'll just say I have one here for Donkey Kong Country 2. I've at least seen drawings for Contra and Ren & Stimpy and I know a Devil May Cry 3 picture is on the way. It should be safe to add those to the prize list if there's interest for this kind of thing.
[Edit]: Er, I meant Donkey Kong Country 2 in case it matters.
I have an idea for a "prize", but i'll ask Flicky first. The idea would be to give away the Team Speedrunning game manual/insert autographed by the winning team.
Hey everyone. Long time watcher, first time posting. I was at the Distant Worlds 25th Anniversary for Final Fantasy concert last night and I got something that I would like to donate as a prize: The first Distant Worlds: Music from Final Fantasy CD signed by conductor and producer Arnie Roth, featured vocal soloist Susan Calloway, and the composer of most of the music in the Final Fantasy series, Nobuo Uematsu. I'll be more than happy to mail it over to mikwuyma if you guys are interested.
Mairsil: I think I would like the two sealed PS2 games, Lollipop Chainsaw, GoW 3, and Mass Effect 3. Sorry, but the indie game codes wouldn't be a big draw.
Fenixdown: That prize looks awesome! I'll PM you my address.
Aww, Silius got pulled? ;_; That game doesn't get enough love. Any chance of just throwing the perler set into the prizes for the Sunsoft block anyways? I already shipped them out with everything else last week. I suppose worst case scenario you hold onto them for whenever the game does get run at a _GDQ event. Regardless of the outcome, I leave them all in your capable hands.
