Well, many designs were received, many amazing ones! Actually, they were all amazing! It was great to look through all the amazing work you skilled creative people are doing!

But of course, three had to be chosen. And I'd like to announce, and congratulate the winners! We have two new transfer designs, and one foil design! Here are the three new designs available this year!!!

 

This design was created by Phoebe Garrett!

This design was created by Vermin!

This is the 2011 foil design, also created by Vermin!

You can catch more of Vermin's work at her deviant art; vermilionvermin.deviantart.com.

We are excited to announce some new merchandise items this year!! We're going to have a nice range of mugs and can-coolers, as well as an amazing range of manifest themed badges. We're also really happy to announce that we'll have a LIMITED supply of tote bags! we've got short handled natural colour, long handled natural colour, and short handled black bags!

As well as our normal merchandise ranges, we've uncovered some limited range stock that we'll also be selling!

Don't forget that we also have the limited edition 'over 9000' shirts in support of Team Four Star! These are printed on a white shirt, and you can get them signed by the members of Team Four Star who are at Manifest!

The Merch booth is going to be rockin'! we may even be doing some cool give-aways! So remember to come past and say hello! we're super friendly!

Did you guess it from the title? Cause if you didn't, guess what -

There'll be trains to the Showgrounds station all of Manifest weekend!!! =D

We've received confirmation from the Victorian Department of Transport that Metro will be operating trains to the Showgrounds Train Station. The trains will run from Flinders Street Station, Southern Cross Station, and North Melbourne Station, at approximately 40 minute intervals from 9am each day.

So if you're thinking about taking Public Transport in, why not train it to the Showgrounds for Manifest?

If you need more information; check out the transport page.

Are you excited about Manifest 2011 yet? 'Cause I'd like to let you know there are even MORE reasons to get excited! If it wasn't enough that we're bringing Martin Billany, better known by his screen name, LittleKuriboh, over from the UK; we're going to bring over TWO members of Team Four Star from the US!

TeamFourStar is a comedy/parody group that spans across the west with members from Canada, the United States, and England! They started three years ago, with DragonBall Z Abridged, and have been building a bigger base ever since!

Scott "KaiserNeko" Frerichs is a California-based (now in Lake Charles, LA) amateur voice actor, graphics designer, and project manager of "Dragon Ball Z: Abridged". Director, co-writer, editor for the show, and the voice behind Zarbon, Burter, Trunks, King Kai, and Gregory, he helped found the group in May 2008.

Nick "Lanipator" Landis an amateur voice actor and parody artist from Minneapolis, MN. Creator of "Yu Yu Hakusho: Abridged" and co-writer and co-star of "Dragon Ball Z: Abridged", it's clear Nick enjoys making people laugh. Nick is also working on a review series called "Outside the Otaku" for the website ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.com.
