Geeks For Tots: Win prizes for donating!

Wednesday, November 14th, 2012 by Pixel Dan

As we approach the holiday season, I would like to take the time to urge all of you to spend a little extra while you’re out doing your holiday shopping and buy an extra toy or two to donate to the less fortunate. Every kid should enjoy a new toy for the holidays, and together we can make sure that happens!

Pixel-Dan.com is teaming up with Geeks For Tots this year to help support the donation of toys to charitable organizations.

Geeks for tots is a web-site with one goal, helping kids.

We encourage individuals to document their donation of toys to a charitable organization by posting an image of the event via social networking, or email us proof of donation. By doing so, they are entered to win one of many prizes donated by various popular pop culture websites.

This gives the individual the satisfaction of helping the less fortunate, and encourages more to give during these hard times.

Geeks For Tots has just posted their list of cool prizes that you could win just for donating! Visit GeeksForTots.com to check out the list and find out how to enter to win. And together let’s all make sure every kid has a new toy to enjoy this holiday season!

Warlords of the Universe – Fake toy ad from Daniel Benedict and Joe Amaro

Monday, November 12th, 2012 by Pixel Dan

My good friends Daniel Benedict and Joe Amaro have teamed up to bring us this incredibly fun fake toy advertisement! Gotta love how the commercial looks like it came right from an old VHS tape!

I know what you’re thinking, but I can tell you that as of right now there is no word on if this is something Joe and Daniel will actually be selling. But, they do have a website set up at WarlodsoftheUniverse.com. So, I’d probably keep my eyes peeled there just in case an announcement is made about a sale!
