At PAX East 2011 the event organizers put together a Minecraft sculpture contest in the PC Area. Minecraft was installed on more than 200 computers with access to the PAX East Minecraft servers where attendees built some extraordinary creations.
We couldn't attend the show ourselves, but instead we sent over 50 Steve heads for the Minecraft fans at the show. Unfortunately the shipping company screwed up royally and the heads never made it. After tons of explicit language and more productive type of correspondence between us and the shipping company, they are finally found!
Our kind community rep Nathaniel have a list of 50 addresses to people who were promised these heads. He will pick up the boxes next week and send them out to you!
At GDC the heads actually found their way to the show. When GDC opened there was a huge line-up at our booth. 100 fans coming in blue shirts got a Steve head to wear.
In the beginning of June Mojang is attending E3 in LA and we're planning to bring more Steve heads. Stay tuned for updates.
You guys should consider marketing the 'Steve' heads!
They are epic, and I am sure heaps of gamers would be more than eager to have a little extra weight of this type on their heads! =D
And maybe a little bit less visibility... ;)
Hell yes, I would so buy a Steve head over the internet.
I agree.
That's epic! Take some of your fans with you!
