About 2 weeks ago I got word that I had won first place in Royal Purple Motor Oil’s “Reel Wars” video contest and the good people at RP said that one of their representatives would hand deliver to me a check for $5,000. But in addition to that tiny, cashable check, they also wanted to present me with a giant. novelty check. And I’ll tell you what….I was super stoked. I’ve won a lot of video contests in the last few years but somehow, this would be my first big, fake check! True to their word, a team from royal purple showed up at my door and gave me this….
You know what’s really funny about that check? It has a check number on it; number 508. I have to wonder, does Royal Purple have a giant, novelty check book? And did 507 other giant checks get issued before I recived this one?
By the way, if you’re interested, that won the contest for me.

Well done, Beardy. What did you use to make the robot head?
OMG! That’s amazing and I love the look on your face! So COOL! Congratulations!
That’s bad ass! I’d love to have a check like that someday too.
That’s awesome! Congrats!!!
Manny,
About a year ago I was at Target and saw that they were selling these small, square, plastic containers with doors on them. When I saw them I remember thinking “those would make perfect heads for a robot costume.” So when I had the idea for this video, Target was the first place I went.
congrats dude! i cam only dream of getting a giant check one day!
