Toys are not only useful for playtime, they can also be wonderful props to photograph. With the right setting, pose and angle, you can bring your subject to life. To participate in this week's Phone Snap Challenge, photograph a toy of your own and post it to the corkboard by Monday, December 5th at 11:59 pm PST for a chance to win a Pop Art Color Toy Camera.
To help stir up some inspiration for your own submission, here are 25 great toy-inspired shots captured by various Flickr users—cell phone only, of course!

Thanks for being included in this great list. Others to check out for inspiration include http://www.flickr.com/photos/kevinpoulton/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/egerbver/ and http://www.flickr.com/photos/st3f4n/ - granted there are a lot of Star Wars action figures and lego involved in these photographers work, but that's what attracted me to them.
These are so much fun!
