Codemasters’ funky new Overlord II, out this Friday, is all about controlling your little minions and getting them to do your dirty work. As we all know, in real life most of us are minions, with a big fat man telling us what to do, so we thought it only fair to offer three lucky TSA readers the chance to own their own little minion.

To win, you’ll need to harness the power of Twitter. Once you’ve signed up for an account (if you didn’t have one already), ensure you’re following us (this bit is crucial) and then you have to tweet this line: “@thesixthaxis – You’re just a big fat man, give me my Overlord II minion!” and we’ll pick out three random matching tweets that have landed in our inbox at midnight (BST) tonight. Easy peasy. So…
1. Sign up for Twitter.
2. Add thesixthaxis to your Follow List.
3. Tweet “@thesixthaxis – You’re just a big fat man, give me my Overlord II minion!”
Winners must live in the UK and not be a real overlord. Winners will be picked at random, and we’ll follow the winners back so we can send you a Direct Message asking for your address – if you’re new to Twitter it might be worth checking it out so you know what you’re doing. Only one tweet per person. Prizes selected at random, and might not be the same models as they are in the photo.
Good luck everyone!

Oh sure, give the minions away. But then before you know it, they’ll be claiming minimum wage, dental plans and holiday pay.
Minion Unions these days are relentless!!

i dont have twitter either, i see it as rather a useless toll to have and would rather be an old fashioned git than give in to popular demand.

Haha, I got a whole bunch of those figurines with my promo copy of Overlord too so I’ll pass on this. My desk in work is getting rather cluttered with various figurines actually, so many of my review copies come with this sort of stuff thrown in these days. I remember when I used to get hardware included instead

just wanted to ask if there will be any competitions where you can enter as a non UK citizen?
and why is it at all that all competitions are UK only? because the shipping would be more expensive? or simply to limit entrys?

The shipping costs would be too expensive. There are comps in which you can win a PSN game, they are of course open to those outside the UK.

and how about non UKs declaring they would pay the shipping costs if they won? because there are often competitions for stuff you cant even buy regularly and i would be more than willing to pay for the shipping myself…
