Win Exclusive Prototype Action Figures!

Radical Entertainment’s shape-shifting open-world action game Prototype is a little over a week away from release in South Africa. As a birthday present to me (from me), Prototype has been pre-ordered from online retailer Kalahari.net. Fingers crossed that I’ll get the limited edition Alex Mercer figurine that comes with that (am_nesia hope you’re reading this ;-))

If you haven’t pre-ordered Prototype yet and missed out on the figurine, or just like collecting this kind of stuff, our friends over at Curious Onion are giving away two of the intricately-designed, 7-inch tall action figures of the super powerful anti-hero. It looks like this:

If you want to stand a chance at winning one, head to Curious Onion for the full competition details.

It’s T-shirt Giveaway Month!

A pinch and a punch for the first of the month. I never knew what that phrase meant except that I feared the very first day of each month at school. It was all-boys school so there were a lot of punches thrown, and I was always on the receiving end. Funnily enough I didn’t get pinched – we were all under the impression that only girls did the pinching. We also thought they had round vaginas. Oh to be young and clueless – good times.

In any case, half of the year has already gone, and another birthday will soon be upon on me. To celebrate my entrance to the world, we’ve organized giveaways to stretch through the whole month of June! We’ve contacted some sponsors and they’ve generously donated prizes towards our competition. A few details are still to be finalized, but in all likelihood you, our dear readers, will stand a chance of winning t-shirts practically every week of this month! 8-)

More details to follow soon – our very first t-shirt giveaway will be happening in the next hour. Stay tuned.

I Dream of Better Cellular Days

Running a blog affords one a few liberties and self-promotion is certainly one of them :-D

I’ve got an old Nokia 3510i hand-me-down from my sister-in-law, Animal Muppet. It gets the job done, but all the kitty stickers on it is really ruining my gangsta rep.

Now I just found out that I’m a finalist in a competition on the local Samsung Blog where the main prize is an awesome Samsung Pixon cellular phone. And your vote could help me win it!

If you’d like to help out, here’s what you need to do:

  1. Register HERE – you’ll receive your login details in the email.
  2. Login to the Samsung Blog HERE and then cast your vote for the entry Skeet and Swizzle HERE.

A big thanks to the mates who have voted already, the cheque’s in the mail ;-)

BONUS: In case you’ve missed it, our own WATCHMEN competition will be ending this Thursday so get your entries in!

Competition: Win Watchmen Graphic Novel!

Note: This competition has ended.

“Never compromise. Not even in the face of Armageddon.” It’s with this unflinching quote from Rorschach that we happily announce another smashing competition here at Onelargeprawn.

Courtesy of local comic-book emporium Outer Limits, one lucky winner will walk away with the hardcover edition of one of the most influential graphic novels of all time, WATCHMEN! It’s an award-winning epic from writer Alan Moore and artist Dave Gibbons that recounts the fall from grace of costumed crime fighters in an alternate 1985 America. Tension between the USA and the Soviet Union is at an all-time high and it is against this backdrop that masked vigilante Rorschach and a ragtag group of superheroes attempt to uncover a plot to kill and discredit all past and present superheroes.

Find out how you could win this amazing graphic novel after the jump.
