iPod Touch case voting contest

OK BrickFans,

I have a few renderings for the iPod Touch (4th generation) case.  Essentially there are (currently) two ideas.  The first surrounds the camera lens with a depression that fits an 8-tooth Tecnic gear.  (Yes, the depression is the same size as an actual Tecnic gear, so it will fit inside the hole.)

The second is a minifig face.  The two renderings here show the face with, and without an 'outline' to set it off from the rest of the case.

Comment below, or send e-mail.  Let us know what you prefer.

    I think I prefer the minifig face w/ outline, but regardless - I'm in.

    Same here! The little smiley face is cute! Perfect to encourage a smile without all that "say cheese" crap! ;D That said, I'll get whatever comes out.

    I think the face is more awesome because I can't understand why someone would put a Technic gear there and cover up the camera.
    The Technic one looks like some random starburst type pattern.

    The designer is putting the final touches on the CAD file for the case this week. Then we "go to steel" (make molds).

    It's the mini-fig face, btw.

    and yes, "yellow" is a go. (It was a very difficult match.)
