Giveaway: Avatar The Last Airbender DVD

This giveaway is now closed. Thank you for your participation.
The winner is Mannequin of Life and Times of a Geeky Mom!
Congratulations!

Okay, I have to admit that I've never heard of Avatar before. *gasp!* But in my defense, I have 2 little girls who prefer ballerinas and princesses. So I was shocked at the response from my sister's family when I mentioned I was giving away the brand new Avatar DVD. My niece and nephew started bombarding me with all kinds of facts about the show! Even my BIL was excited until I told him that my family was not eligible. :-(

From the site: "In this highly anticipated release, the eclipse has come but where is the Firelord? Aang searches frantically for him, but finds trouble instead. The kids are forced to flee the Fire Nation Palace with Azula and her war ships hot on their heels. At the Western Air Temple, a surprise mentor joins them and offers to be Aang's Firebending teacher. Together the new team must figure out a way to get Aang back in the fight."

Avatar: The Last Airbender is a 123-minute DVD which features audio commentaries by the series' creators and crew, an exclusive mini comic book, and five new episodes. Created by Nickelodeon Home Entertainment and distributed by Paramount Home Entertainment, Avatar: The Last Airbender sells for $16.99.

You can win your copy here by mentioning in comments before May 23rd what your favorite thing is about the show Avatar. That's it! A random winner will be selected and notified on May 24th. The winner will then have 3 days to claim their prize.

To earn extra entries, subscribe to my feed and/or mention this giveaway on your blog with a link back here. Don't forget to let me know if you're doing/did the extra credit so I can make sure you're entered properly. Also, leave a way to contact you in case you win!

This giveaway is open to everyone world-wide. Good luck!

    Avatar has a really intricate, well-done story line. How embarrassing that I know that!

    My children love this show. I watched one episode with them, and it seems that the characters are interested in fostering peace among clashing cultures. Gotta love THAT theme.

    My Favorite thing about this show is the "bending" itself....Such a great concept for the tried and true "good vs. evil" mythology. The story is quite amazing too and the character development puts some movies and TV shows to shame. It's great just watching the Avatar as he becomes more and more aware of his abilities along with his companions....Just a great cartoon series!!!! Thanks for the chance to win this.
