From the post at: http://www.flickr.com/groups/legomilitary/discuss/72157604182049397/The Flickr LEGO Military Group is excited and proud to announce its first Military Building Competition.
While LEGO has yet to produce an official Military theme of its own, there have always been LEGO fans out there building tanks and warplanes. In recent years, Military has been a steadily growing "unofficial" theme; and we really hope that the prospect of winning glory and recognition on the merciless field of a LEGO building competition may inspire some talented builders out there to try the theme out for a MOC or two.
We're grateful to BrickArms for sponsoring the competition, so if you’re in need of some minifig accessories, do consider checking out their impressive arsenal of weaponry at brickarms.com/.
Veterans and recruits welcome!BrickArms is sponsoring the contest, and I will be providing some great prizes to the winners! Submit your entry on Flickr, and you could win! The winners have been announced!---Will

Ooh! I might enter that! (When I get a Flickr account set up...) Hmm... Then again, alongside Corran101's, obxcrew's, NannanZ's and multiple other people's MOCs, mine would look pathetic... Well, you don't succeed by not trying, so I'll have a go! Now where is Hacker... ( NZLSA Engineer) MiPod Edit: Hold on... Do I have to be part of the Flickr LEGO Military Group to enter?

I just entered my entry!
Ideas are far more powerful than guns. We don't allow our enemies to have guns, why should we allow them to have ideas?

Normally I would withdraw my entry, just to give MiPod a chance, but since there are (probably) Brickarms as prizes, no way! ;) Unfortunately my and tanks have already been posted online and I can't enter them. :( Which means I'm making another tank! I'd probably have a better chance if the entries were divided into different age groups, as I am 12.(almost 13) I hope you enter MiPod! Good luck to all! :)

Well I might enter, but I don't really understand by what they mean when it says "Futuristic" Like an armored hovercraft? or something Sci-Fi? A soldier should not be commemorated for doing what is expected-Master ChiefBungie.net Account Profile

I'm begining to think that age groups are ging out of style :( Anyway, I hope to enter this one. I just finished taking apart my unneeded MOCs, that gives me pieces to work with.
You're good Kid, real good, but as long as I'm around you'll always be second best, shee?
