I really like the squashed ewok one. Unless it's @moodonia ;-)
Edit: No longer true due to change of rules: (Google+ is a bit unfair, I can't get on it because it says it's full.)

Magnets - how do they work?

This is a solid point. See the updated note in the contest description above. We will accept Facebook links in lieu of Google+ links if you are unable to create a Google+ account.

No problem! If you win something more than a t-shirt, just let us know that you'd like to trade your prize with one of our runners up.
Great vids so far, people. Keep them coming.

There is still time for more people to enter, I think we have 7 people taking part atm
But just though I'd let you know in advance:

In case I happen to win a Grand Prize, I'd love to choose a T-shirt instead of a magnet. The magnets are super cool, but that squirrel just creeps me out, especially if his nuts end up all over the place! And I am not sure if I want any zombie parts near my food.
