Joyswag: Let Rise of the Argonauts do your holiday shopping

by Justin McElroy { Dec 16th 2008 at 5:30PM }

Update: Congrats to our big winner "Bob McPhail" -- check your email Bob!

We know how it is: You get swarmed with all the great holiday releases and then suddenly it's a week before Christmas and you've done none of your holiday shopping. Luckily, Joystiq and Codemasters have you covered. To mark the release of Rise of the Argonauts, you could have all your holiday shopping done in one pass with a box of six faceplates and five action figures from the game. No, seriously. The whole box. See that picture up there? Imagine that, but with like ... five times as many. That's what you're getting.

Who wouldn't love to see one of these little guys starting at them from behind freshly-torn wrapping paper? No one, that's who. If you win and you live in the U.S., we'll get you the box before Christmas. If you live in Canada ... well, no promises. We don't know how quickly the mounties deliver mail. And hey, email us some pics of you giving them away and maybe we'll stick them on Joystiq.

Leave a comment telling us who you'll be giving the prizes away to (and how many you'll be keeping for yourself).
You must be 18 years or older and a resident of the US or Canada (excluding Quebec)
Limit 1 entry per person per calendar day
This entry period ends at 12 pm ET on Thursday, December 18th. We'll randomly select 1 winner at that time to receive six Rise of the Argonauts faceplates (ARV: $60.00) and six Rise of the Argonauts action figures (ARV: $72.00). Please check your e-mail!

Flip McSquible @ Dec 16th 2008 5:46PM

Noid @ Dec 16th 2008 5:47PM

Ill Give them to my dad, he will want to return it since he returns everything I get him anyways. So in the end ill be really getting them all.

ESD3 @ Dec 16th 2008 5:48PM

I would give one of each to my little brother and then the others I would give to my co-workers only if they call in on the same day to make me look better.

Edge @ Dec 16th 2008 5:47PM

My name is Jason, and since these prizes already have my name all over them, I'm keeping them.

sam @ Dec 16th 2008 5:48PM

I'll be giving it to deaftly's mom, AGAIN and AGAIN!

Mikail Yazbeck @ Dec 16th 2008 5:48PM

This is THE Mass Effect of this year!

It may have a lower budget, but the devs have no doubt achieved the same type of game with Rise of the Argonauts!

Three Cheers for Liquid!

ice~ @ Dec 16th 2008 5:49PM

I would give 1 t my brother, 1 to me, and i would use the face plate to woo beautiful Argonaut loving ladies into loving me

Kinsey @ Dec 16th 2008 5:50PM

I'd prolly hand out the faceplates to my friends with 360's then we can make a club with a secret password and eventually a fort that says "Girls are most definitely welcomed"

SpikeDelight @ Dec 16th 2008 5:51PM

I would give them to my dad, who loves Ray Harryhausen pictures, and these would make his day. He doesn't play on 360, but he would like the art.

The Dark Wayne @ Dec 16th 2008 5:51PM

I'd throw them at people when I ran out of batarangs

Crazd @ Dec 16th 2008 5:52PM

4 to myself and 2 to some random homeless people

Dirty @ Dec 16th 2008 5:53PM

MINE ALL MINE

Um, I'll keep only 1 set for myself, and give the rest to my ps3-owning friends!

gabe @ Dec 16th 2008 5:58PM

Gun Barrier @ Dec 16th 2008 5:59PM

Reggie @ Dec 16th 2008 6:05PM

I'll keep on to myself since i've never had a new faceplate and one to my wife, and one to my brother inlaw, and one to my neighbor, and some to my students :)

Theo @ Dec 16th 2008 6:03PM

WHy my girlfriend, of course! She loves men in loinclothes.

Koding @ Dec 16th 2008 6:04PM

They're mine! All mine! All for me...none for you!

898 @ Dec 16th 2008 6:06PM

I will be giving it to my trashcan because that is just plain ugly.

Vorpal Foetus @ Dec 16th 2008 6:07PM

I will keep them all and buy 5 more xboxes so I can use each one of them.

Greg @ Dec 16th 2008 6:22PM

Well I need two faceplates for my consoles, then the rest will go to people at work including one guy without a console...yet. The action figures are mine, all mine, there mine I tell you, get your own, mine, mine, mine!

mietha CAG @ Dec 16th 2008 6:07PM

Are you too damn cheap to pay for shipping six times? Isn't this rather lazy? I'd love to have a faceplate for myself, but I only have 1 gaming friend. The rest would be a waste. Ebay I guess. I just wish I had 6 chances to win a faceplate instead of 1, basically.

Latin Trident @ Dec 16th 2008 6:07PM

if i could walk, toys for tots

Indiana Hoosier @ Dec 16th 2008 6:08PM

I have 4 brothers each with their own 360.

KrisR @ Dec 16th 2008 6:09PM

Giving it to friends keeping one set for myself.

Jigsaw hc @ Dec 16th 2008 6:11PM

I'll give them to my son

marty @ Dec 16th 2008 6:17PM

i will be sharing with my best friend dan who i have known for over 20 years, he has been unable to find to a job for the last 3 months.

SavageGrampa @ Dec 16th 2008 6:17PM

I would keep one, then give the rest away to the Salvation Army bell ringers.

DBoyFlex @ Dec 16th 2008 6:17PM

My brothers and cousins, keeping one of each for myself.

DangerMouse @ Dec 16th 2008 6:17PM

I hear the trash can loves shit like this.

MasterWolf @ Dec 16th 2008 6:17PM

I would keep one for myself and give the other to my brother.

El Capitaine @ Dec 16th 2008 6:18PM

I'll pick one of each for myself, then give the rest away to people on my LIVE friends list that I actually know in real life.

chalcyon @ Dec 16th 2008 6:18PM

I'd keep them all and make a little shrine, and then when people ask why I'd just stare at them confusedly

AkmGamer @ Dec 16th 2008 6:19PM

How about chairs.

btan @ Dec 16th 2008 6:21PM

all my relatives who have an xbox360 (which aren't many)

HappyFunBall @ Dec 16th 2008 6:21PM

I'd definitely keep one of each, then give one to my brother, and maybe give the rest to Child's Play or something.

Levi @ Dec 16th 2008 6:24PM

I'll give one of the figures to my Titan Quest Valkyrie figurine because she is in need of a battle hardened male companion, and the rest to my mother. She holds class autions with her students every sememster, and faceplates and figurines would be perfect. Each of the students accumilate auction points for class participation and are able to use those points to purchase stuff from my mom (usually crap like pencils and Trapper Keepers, or stuff she confiscates from misbehaving students), and I can see some of her students going wild over these.
