Celebrate Pop Goes the Monkey’s 10th year by entering to win $500 in bits and custom gear for your Space Marine homebrew chapter.
The 10-year anniversary of Pop Goes the Monkey is a celebration with prizes, shoulder pads, and a golden opportunity for custom chapter creators. If you’ve ever dreamed of seeing your homebrew Warhammer 40k Space Marine chapter turned into a full-fledged miniature accessory range, this is your shot.
The sweepstakes is live, and the prize pool is enough to make even a Primarch raise an eyebrow. Let’s take a look!
What’s the Deal? A $500 Custom Chapter Giveaway
To mark the big 1-0, Pop Goes the Monkey is running a sweepstakes to bring one lucky fan’s chapter or warband to life. Submit your concept by June 1st and you might get selected as one of three finalists. From there, the community will vote to choose the ultimate winner. The prize? A $500 gift certificate and a full set of themed gear—including shoulder pads, vehicle bits, and more.
What Do Finalists Get?
Each of the three finalists won’t leave empty-handed. Their symbols will be refined into custom designs and applied to a series of miniature-ready accessories. These include shoulder insignias, vehicle iconography, and a surprise thematic item to tie it all together. It’s a solid teaser for what the winner will receive.
What Makes a Winning Entry? Lore Beats Logos
A compelling backstory and flavorful concept matter more than a polished logo. Submissions must avoid copyright violations and offensive imagery. The winning design will get a permanent home in the “Monkey-verse” with its own webpage, merch, and product line. That’s bragging rights with a side of resin.
