Nov 29, 2011 06:44 PM

When was the last time you took some time out of your day to play with your favorite action figure? Or build an entire town of Legos? Well, it's time for you to dust off that old toy chest for this week's Phone Snap challenge!

To kick off Phone Snap's very first weekly photo challenge, we want you to have some fun! Draw out your inner child and snap a photo of a toy. Whether it's your favorite stuffed animal as a child or the new Millennium Falcon model that you built last weekend, we'd love to see it.

Since Phone Snap is a cell phone photography based challenge, the use of camera apps and filters is strongly encouraged. Some app suggestions that you can put to use are Instagram and Hipstamatic for the iPhone, or Vignette and Retro Camera for the Android. Stay tuned for more reviews and recommendations!

ENTER TO WIN

One lucky winner will receive the Pop Art Color Toy Camera! This 35mm plastic toy camera is fun to use and captures four different pictures in the span of one second, each in a different color hue, preserving them onto one single print. Capture your world à la Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein!
