Tomopop isn't the only place that hosts awesome toy contests (although ours are pretty spiffy). Two other contests have appeared on our radar, one coming from the partnership between DIY figure maker, Maqet, and Volkswagen, and the other from the plush artist Anna Chambers. Both have prizes you will not want to miss!

Let's start with the Maqet/Volkswagen one, entitled "Create Your VW Polo and Win!" In the contest, you will be using Maqet's design software to customize a Volkswagen Polo's paint job. Judges will choose the 40 most creative-looking designs, which will then be 3-dimensionally printed, and put on display then given to their designers. The grand prize winner's design will be turned into a real car. The winner will be able to drive that car for 2 months during the Summer.

On the soft and cuddly side is Anna Chambers's twitter contest, in which the winner receives one of her plushes. The contest will run through the rest of April. The first round was today and the prize was one of of her striped bunny plushes. Anna mentioned in her twitter feed that the next round would be this Thursday, April 12th. Don't forget you must be follow her on twitter to be eligible to win. Be there or be plushie-less!
