- 1 entry per person. If you change or update your entry, please just make sure that we know which one is your entry.
- All entries must include the contest logo for at least 3 seconds at the beginning of the video. Link to the contest logo is below.

hey guys would you mind if i used a movie clip from this awesome spy movie called RED? i am going to have an RPG scene, but i do not have any good effect studios so i need to use a movie clip. plz reply

[ToyWizVideo]

@bumper3241 No studio effects are necessary at all, but the real issue is that the film creators have rights to their work and how it's used. Without permission, YouTube already flags or removes videos with copyrighted content. So I really think that it's not a good idea to include a commercial film in your video.

would u mind if i plz used clone troopers VS green army men because i do not have enough green army men ( coz i only have 4)

[ToyWizVideo]

@bumper3241 I think it would be difficult to put Clone Troopers in a WWII setting, though I suppose a well-done fantasy story could make it work. I won't say it has to be historically accurate, but that would be hard to pull off! It might be easier to use your army figures - you don't have to have a lot if you have a good story that only needs a few. And don't forget civilians - they can be there too (I mean just plain people figs).
