But anyway, we're moving on to Week 3. This week's theme is...
Cooking!
This time of year is synonymous with cooking and baking, so have your Transformers whip up something in the kitchen and post the photos below! Of course, you can go the traditional route of Christmas Cookies, Fruit Cake, and other classic Christmas recipes but this is also a great time to start showing off your culture's traditions if you or your family don't celebrate Christmas! Show us traditional dishes from your religion/culture, as well!
Now let's feature our favorite submissions from the past week!
THE BOARDS
Sigma Magnus with The Getaway Discovery (Comic)
Kurthy with The Obigitory Die Hard Reference
Bee's Girlfriend with Rewind and the Minibots (Comic)
D-Maximus_Prime with Frozen...Sparks
Va'al with Home Asaurus
Bronzewolf with The Santamus Clause (Comic)
Keelo1027 with Baking Cookies
...
Then, finally, truly in a league all its own:
Fires_of_Inferno with A Christmas Carol (Comic)
This is by far the most amazing entry we've received this year, and probably the best we've received in the history of Transformersmas. Fires_of_inferno takes us through the trials and tribulations of Ebenezer Starscrooge, in this 7-part, 79 installment (practically shot-for-shot) remake of the classic Christmas tale. It's unbelievable, and to do it justice, we'll link to the seven parts below. Extremely good job, Fires_of_inferno, you win this week.
PART 1
PART 2
PART 3
PART 4
PART 5
PART 6
PART 7
That's all our features for this week. Enter your cooking photos below, and then check back next week for the final theme of Transformersmas 2017!

Cooking at Christmas is a fun activity! The smells, the preparations, the spices, the rushing, the over-boiling, the in-the-way children, the annoying cat, the eyes peering over your shoulder, the unbearable heat.
.......
WATCHING!
Watching Christmas cooking is a fun activity! There we go. Cooking shows abound with holiday specials every year, and every year I watch a few. One that you should ALL check out, is called Christmas Cooking with Mrs. Brown. It's on youtube, go watch it! In the mean time, it turns out that Swerve wanted to put on a holiday cooking special of his own!

Between loving you and hating you for that line.
So I'll clap AND glare.

Me and Swerve were seriously the same person while I was doing this. "How can I make this stupid pun work?"
Strongarm was like the other part of my mind. "All this crap just to get a pun off... What's wrong with you?"
In the end, the only person's time I wasted was my own!
I'll just show myself out.

This week, however, we turn our attention to...
Holiday Traditions!
Share what you and your family (and your Transformers) do for the holidays! Decorating a tree, hanging stockings, leaving cookies out for Santa, the possibilities are quite endless! Also, if you celebrate a different holiday other than Christmas, this is the perfect time to share your Traditions, as well! Lighting a Menorah or an Advent wreath, or spinning a dreidel. Non-Christmas winter holidays are not only allowed but encouraged!
Pick four winter holiday Traditions to share with your TFs, and post them once a day down below! You can also share your submissions on social media with #Transformersmas.
We can't wait to see what you come up with for the final theme of Transformersmas!
And now, our favorite submissions from the past week:
THE BOARDS:
CowboyNinjaD with A New Eggnog Recipe
Fires_of_Inferno with Winter Pun-derland
Va'al with Cooking with Blot
Keelo1027 with Say Fa La La!
Remember to post your entries below to be featured in our final Transformersmas Article!

It's made from aluminum. Very high strength-to-weight ratio.

Gnaw really enjoyed his advent calendar this year! Why would you bother with chocolate when LEGO is not only fun, bug a lot crunchier too!
Merry Christmas everyone!

Thank you all so much for participating. It was a lot of fun, and I hope you guys enjoyed it as much as last year. We'll hopefully be rolling out a lot of these new aspects (Social Media submissions, featuring our favorites on the main page) into a revamped version of our regular photo challenge next year.
Stay tuned for a special post tomorrow, and thanks again!

Week 1: Winter Sports
and got a wide array of entries, from Ice Skating to Knitting. Take a look!
Fires_of_Inferno
Alright, spheroid projectiles ready...
Why fly, when it's snowing and you have built-in skis like Whirl does!?
Sergeant Chaos: "You giant idiot! You're a snowmobile, you're not supposed to crash! You could have snapped my neck, you goalie-looking pile of rusty metal shavings!"
Icepick: "I could STILL snap your neck if you don't shut your filthy vocal processor, fleshling!"
Snowmobiling is fun!
Christmas shopping is definitely a winter sport! I mean, if you go shopping properly instead of just buying everything online! Either way, try not to get trampled!
I'm running out of real winter sports by now. However, you know what should be considered a winter sport? EVERYTHING INVOLVING CHRISTMAS! Not only are there things I am going to be doing, there's so much I WANT to do! Festivals, sales, shopping, checking out lights, building snow people, summon Cthulhu, taking pictures, bake cookies, watch holiday movies! That's a lot for one person to do! In the end you feel like you've run a marathon, but it's all worth it, and it's all fun!

Mirage finds ice skating to be extremely easy. He doesn't understand how people think it's so hard... (It gets less complicated when you have built in skates!)
And in my most lackluster, rushed day yet, Hot Rod finds out that his favorite hobby is not as easy in the winter months

This was the most impressive and intricate entry (or series of entries) we received this year. We sung the praises of Fire's impressive Christmas Carol recreation, (Naming it the winner of the Holiday Movie theme) and we'll continue to sing them now:
This is by far the most amazing entry we've received this year, and probably the best we've received in the history of Transformersmas.

Glad you all enjoyed the compilation. It was a lot of work to code and set up, but it's great to see everybody's submissions at once. Really makes you appreciate the effort everybody put in to making my pet project take off. Truly, thank you all.
