I still think the director's chair prize that we used to give out way back in the day was the coolest AMV prize of them all, quite frankly. If I understand correctly though, it went away because shipping them to the winner was a bit of an issue. They weren't the kind of things a winner could just shove in their suitcase.

gift cards to ... Best Buy would be really cool.

Considering their ever shrinking dvd department (especially anime), I'd have to disagree about Best Buy.

I'd like the prizes to be practical yet awesome though, such as equipment,

Hard drives are always useful. How about autographed hard drives?

That'd definitely be unique...

Agreed.

Agreed too.

You know, a external hard drive case, autographed? That would be something special.

[Shin-AMV]

An external hard drive that's also a trophy!?!? Dunno how difficult it would be to make a custom case to make a AX 2012 AMV Contest harddrive, but even just slapping on some cheap decals indicating as much would still be something really awesome and really practical.

[Pwolf]

Engraved would be cooler. Cheap decals are... well, cheap

[KagatoAMV]

I bet you could have GOHs sign a metal HDD case with a paint pen, then have those signatures engraved. Probably cost a lot though.
