15 years of BotCon (1994 was the first year, 2008 was the 15th year).
15 prizes up for grabs.
15 Questions to answer.
15 Days to enter (Sunday 3rd August to Sunday 17th August 2008 Brisbane time)
It's a bit like a scavenger hunt, so you don't need to know about Transformers to enter this competition. All you need to do is find the answers to the following questions for a chance to win the major prize, or just guess as many as you can for a chance to win a minor prize.
15 entries will be randomly drawn (names on pieces of paper) from all submitted entries. The first entry drawn to have all 15 answers correct, will win the major prize. The other 14 will select a minor prize from the prize pool, in the order they are drawn out. If by chance none of the 15 entries drawn have all answers correct, the major prize will go to the first drawn with the highest number correct.
Major Prize - Sealed BotCon 2007 attendee exclusive figure Bugbite (recoloured Classics Bumblebee, about 1000 produced)
