The Mod Shop might be heading for the workshop in the sky, but that doesn't mean we're leaving our Gamers' Challenge contestants in the cold. 

The contest prompt: Create your best mod featuring a brand, character (or characters), or theme from a game of your choice. Winner gets an all-expenses-paid trip to PAX.

We had a really hard time picking the winners for this one - they were all so good, we wish we could have chosen them all.

Hit the jump to meet the winners!
