We know, hiatuses suck. But we’re getting used to dealing with them by now, right? And the best way to combat those hiatus blues is to run a little contest. Thanks to Warner Bros. we’ve got a little goody pack: one lucky US reader (sorry international fans!) will win a free iTunes download of the first two episodes of season 1 of the Vampire Diaries, a Vampire Diaries mouse pad, and a ‘Love Sucks’ mug. Want to enter? You can find the rules and entry form after some information from the WB.

Vampire Diaries mug and mouse pad

 
If you’re interested in buying a mug or mouse pad for yourself, you can find these and more official merchandise from the Vampire Diaries now at the WBShop.com.

Also, the WB invites you to Sink your Teeth into This! Can’t get enough of the Vampire Diaries? Now find the complete first season, new episodes, music CDs, audio books and more all in one place for download on: iTunes.com/vampirediaries

 
Now, if you want to enter the contest, it’s very simple. Just take a note of the entry rules below, and then fill out the form.

Rules:

  • Only one entry per person. If you don’t think your entry went through, send it again, but duplicates will be deleted before the draw.

  • You have until Friday 4th March, Midnight ET to get your entry in.

The Vampire Diaries TV SeriesThanks to Ian Somerhalder, who tweeted the title page of his script this morning, we now know that episode 217 is called Know Thy Enemy. Sounds delightfully ominous.

And in case you missed our tweet last night, Dread Central has a report from NYC’s Toy Fair 2011 (via Idle Hands, who are covering the event in full) on Tonner Doll Company‘s new Vampire Diaries figures. You can see photos of Damon Salvatore, Stefan Salvatore, and Elena Gilbert via the Idle Hands Flickr. If you’re wondering how much the dolls will retail for, looks like the suggested retail price is $159.99. UPDATE: Here’s Tonner’s official press release on the Damon Salvatore figure.

The Vampire Diaries TV SeriesThanks to @GrudgedPunkr for the heads up that The Vampire Diaries: Original Television Soundtrack tracklisting has been updated on Amazon. We blogged the original posted tracklisting a few weeks ago and there are definite changes – the track order, a remix of “Sleep Alone” by Bat For Lashes, and the retitling of the opening and closing Michael Suby score tracks. But the most notable change is the addition of “Cut” by Plumb. We’ve highlighted these changes below, though the overall track order has definitely changed. The soundtrack comes out October 12, 2010 on EMI/Virgin. Pre-order your copy!

1. Stefan’s Theme – Mike Suby
2. Running Up That Hill – Placebo
3. Currency of Love – Silversun Pickups
4. Hammock – Howls
5. Sleep Alone (909s in the DarkTimes Mix) – Bat for Lashes
6. Bloodstream (Vampire Diaries Remix) – Stateless
7. We Radiate – Goldfrapp
8. Obsession – Sky Ferreira
9. Head Over Heels – Digital Daggers
10. Down – Jason Walker
11. Beauty of the Dark – Mads Langer
12. Cut – Plumb
