Thanks for posting this. I just received my kit (15 mins ago) & have a game in mind already.
Says the kits are out of stock!!! Not surprising, it's a very cool contest! I really hope they'll get some in soon; in the meantime, I'll check out the pieces included and get to work...maybe by the time they get more in stock I'll have something worth building on!
Also interesting that every kit seems to be unique; and it's great that designers are showing what they've received. If you're stuck you can just check out someone else's kit for ideas!

I'm happy that you were able to get into the contest.
FYI: Some fellow designers are posting what they received in their packages in a geeklist:

Best of luck.
