Hi everyone!

With the Christmas season already upon us, it means that the biggest anime figure event in the Philippines is coming soon as well. This December 28-29, Otakuzine Anime Magazine will be holding Ozine Fest Anime Figure Special 2012!  Like the name implies, the entire event will be dedicated to anime figures and of course, Onegai Onii-chan will be there to support it.

To celebrate the event, we have partnered with Otakuzine management to bring you an exciting Nendoroid art design contest where you can win some cool prizes. Have you ever dreamed of being a Nendoroid designer? Or do you have an existing idea in mind that you wish to share with others? Well, here's your chance to show off your skills and win some great prizes along the way.

Here's a sample entry to serve as a guide:

• Draw your own original Nendoroid and create a Nendoroid that you can call truly yours'! The Nendoroid can be your original character or it may also be an existing character that has or does not have an existing Nendoroid.
