Robot Chicken co-creators Seth Green and Matt Senreich are putting their chicken scratch to good use as Adult Swim presents a sweepstakes tied to the Emmy-nominated Robot Chicken: STAR WARS special. Beginning July 23rd, fans of the series and the legendary Star Wars franchise can log on to AdultSwim.com to enter for a chance to win a grand prize package that includes a copy of the Robot Chicken: STAR WARS script autographed by the series co-creators – and self-admitted Star Wars fanatics – Green and Senreich. The sweepstakes kicks off just as the special, which was recently nominated for an Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program (for Programming Less Than One Hour), was released on a bonus-laden DVD on July 22nd for the suggested retail price of $14.97.

Beginning at 12:00 a.m. EST on July 23rd and running through August 8th, the random drawing will give fans a chance to win one grand prize and five runner-up prize packs. The one grand prize winner will win the autographed script, along with all three Robot Chicken DVDs – the series’ first two complete seasons and the Robot Chicken: STAR WARS titles – and an Adult Swim t-shirt. Additionally, five runners up will be selected to receive a Robot Chicken: STAR WARS prize pack with a t-shirt and the franchise’s three DVDs. Fans can log on to http://www.adultswim.com/shows/robotchicken/stuff/rcsw/ to participate and the winners will be randomly selected and announced on AdultSwim.com on August 12th.

Brazenly combining the satirical style of Green and Senreich’s Stoopid Monkey Productions and the creative team at ShadowMachine, headed by Alex Bulkley and Corey Campodonico, and inspired by the unforgettable moments and favorite characters of the Star Wars galaxy, the Robot Chicken: STAR WARS special intertwines the staples of George Lucas’s universe with “yo’ momma” battles, spoofs on George Dubya, and besotted fanboys. To pull off this parody, the Emmy-winning Robot Chicken guys enlisted the help of big Hollywood names, former boy-band members and even George Lucas himself. In addition to Lucas’s cameo appearance in a hilarious fan-convention scene, other celebrities voices include: Conan O’Brien, Seth MacFarlane, Malcolm McDowell, Hulk Hogan, James Van Der Beek, Robert Smigel, Donald Faison, Abraham Benrubi, co-writer Breckin Meyer and Joey Fatone.
