The Autoblog After Christmas Sweepstakes #2: Automoblox complete set
Congratulations to Sharon Thayer whose comment was randomly selected from yesterday's post to win a media pack including the children's books R is for Race, The Night Henry Ford Met Santa and a DVD copy of Grand Theft Auto: Tricked Out Edition.
We underestimated the draw for today's prize, though, which is a complete set of Automoblox toys. Many comments for the first drawing were readers pining over winning today's prize, so make sure you enter by leaving a comment on this post telling us the one gift you always wanted for Christmas but never got. You're allowed to enter again today if you submitted a comment yesterday and didn't win. Feel free to use the same answer again if you like or come up with a new one.
We'll randomly select a comment from this post tomorrow (12/28) at 3PM and send that person a complete set of Automoblox toys, which includes seven vehicles (the Limited Edition C9p Pink is not shown) valued at $35 apiece. You have 24 hours to get your submission in by leaving a comment on this post telling us what you always wanted for Christmas but never got, starting... now! Good luck!
Some quick basic rules:
- You can enter each of the three drawings once, but you can only win one prize
- You must be 18 years old to enter
- Winners must be a resident of the continental U.S. (we're working on broadening our reach for future sweepstakes, giveaways and contests)
- Prizes will be shipped after all drawings are completed.
UPDATE: The Automoblox prize pack will now include all seven cars plus one extension block and an Automoblox T-shirt worth over $260 altogether.

I have always wanted a built VQ35 for my dime (well, for the last two years anyway :-P) ~300whp and under 2000lbs spells F-U-N!

Santa still hasn't brought me a `73 Carrera RS in Grand Prix White with blue or black trim. Or even a `73 911S -- I'm not picky.

A Darda racetrack (not with the cheap plastic cars you can get today, but the metal ones from the 1970s).

For the ten years between ages 4 and fourteen i asked for a real, true to life slot car track setup for my bedroom, i got the Tyco racers, but never the real thing. I still pine for them...

Well this year I wanted a Von Zipper wallet, which came up empty.
But something I've always wanted but never got? Panda.
I've always had a fascination with pandas, I'll never get one, but I want one.

I didn't 'always' want a Nintendo Wii, because they didn't always exist, but St. Nick didn't bring me one this year. He's better get back on the ball next year, dang it.

Dear Santa, I'm still waiting for that Porsche 911 Turbo. Preferably a 997, but I'll take a 996. Who am I kidding? I'll even take a 993!

A car such as an RX-8 would have been nice...

Growing up, I'd always lusted after a Porsche 911 Turbo. I wanted one then and I want one now, but hopefully it is a dream that I have a few years (60 or so) to achieve.
