W00t! Look at what arrived at NeatoHQ: a super cool Comic-Con 2011 Special Ultimate Optimus Prime figure from our pals at Hasbro. And here's the best part: it's yours to win!
I'm excited to announce a quickie Transformers Treasure Hunt in collaboration with our friends over at The Daily What (a very cool blog, as I'm sure you all already know). Like our usual Tokyoflash Treasure Hunt, this contest involves finding answers to clues that we've left on both of our websites.
It's easy to play - for those who haven't played before, here's how: we'll give you a set of clues, for example:
1. What is the name of Neatorama's baby blog?
2. What is 2+1?
3. What is the name of the top grill listed in our Top 10 Coolest BBQ Grills article?
The answers: neatobambino, 3, and lynx make a web link on Neatorama: http://www.neatorama.com/neatobambino-3-lynx (go ahead, copy and paste to your browser). Easy, right?
Let's get on with the game, then! Here is the Transformers Treasure Hunt with TDW Geek:
1. word1: Check out The Daily What blog and navigate your way to the GEEK sub-blog (TDW Geek) and find the post about Balrog. It's a few pages in, so be sure to check out posts from the previous days using the "next" navigation button at the bottom of the blog.
What is the last word in the name of the documentary film?
2. word2: Somewhere in the NeatoShop's Gift for Geek category, there's an item with a Treasure Hunt clue (see above). What is the word in the clue? (Yes, you have to hunt around for it. After all, it is a treasure hunt! Go to the individual product pages and check out the images - don't forget to click on the thumbnails to embiggen).
Visit TDW Geek and the NeatoShop to find the two answers. Then string them together into a URL: http://www.neatorama.com/word1-word2 (all lower case, separated with a dash).
Good luck!
