Let's go back to our childhood and play with toys this week. Be as creative as you like. Now to make sure this is going to be SFW: no sex toys!
This will once again be a voting week.
This challenge begins when posted and ends at noon GMT on Monday 20 October 2025.
After that voting will commence.
The WET Rules:
The General Image rules:

- Size: Maximum image size is 1600px on the long end. Minimum size is 800px;
- Post Processing: Do whatever you like, and the host/voters will decide if it works;
- Title your image;
- Posting: ONE PHOTO per photographer per challenge.
- Commenting: No commenting and/or Likes during challenge. After the challenge is closed and the winner is known, discussion is encouraged;
- Keep it clean, and both family and work safe;
- Have lots of FUN;
- This text is available in a sticky. Copy the text and paste it in the new thread or quote it and remove the quote tags.
The rules for choosing the winner in a voting week:
- Once the challenge is closed on Monday noon GMT, voting will commence;
- The voting window will be closed 24 hours later on Tuesday noon GMT;
- People who didn't enter a photograph are also allowed to vote;
- Contestants cannot vote on their own image;
- Voters must cast 3 votes. Any fewer and the votes will be discarded. The only exception is if there are fewer entries in which case all must be included in the votes;
- The votes will be tallied as follows: 1st Place = 3 points, 2nd Place = 2 points, and 3rd Place = 1 point;
- The host of the challenge may also enter a photo and is encouraged to do so;
- Should the host win, the runner up will host the next challenge, so as to avoid the same person hosting in two consecutive weeks;
- In case of a tie, the host will make the final decision;
- After the challenge has ended, everyone is invited to comment on the images and/or provide feedback on their vote choices!
Hosting:
- The challenge host is the winner of the last challenge;
- Once your win is announced, go to Games, Competitions and Challenges and choose "Post thread";
- In the top (title) line, enter Weekend Task #X - Your Topic
- Copy / paste the sticky in your new thread, fill in the right data (title, description, data etc.) and click "Post thread", at the bottom of the page. Or simply click the QUOTE button and then in your new thread choose INSERT QUOTE, toggle off the BBcode, remove the QUOTE buttons and toggle on the BBcode button again. Detailed instructions for that are here.
- Soon after noon GMT on the next Tuesday, post the sum of the votes for first, second, and third place. No ties, please;
- If the winner can't be contacted and doesn't respond by Wednesday noon GMT, the second-place winner will host the challenge. If both are unavailable, the third-place winner will host.
