Prize Matic

Users could then exchange three Backstage Passes in the machine for either a:
- Stage Smoke Machine (rare)
- Dance Steps (most common)
- Black Star Stage (common)
Competitions
Habbo Stars was primarily a talent competition for players across any hotel internationally. It was split into four categories: Dance, Voice, Fashion and Room Building.
Bot-Band Room Competition
The Bot Band competition was a building competition where users had to make a room for a bot to perform in. The only rules were it had to contain a Drum SFX, a Mars Walk and a Black Stage Piece.
The competition gave out badges for participating, top 100 and top 10, but it was changed in late November as it was discovered there was a glitch where users could enter without having the required furni. The badge was changed to a troll image with the code 'GLITCH' and it was re-run.
The re-run competition gave users one of the following badges (again for participation, top 100 and top 10).
The winners of the competition in the UK were:
- .:Criddie:.
- .GaguSh.
- IcedPanda
- KrazyKay17
- happy!
- lolcatTheTiny
- pps27
- zwd
Blooper Competition
The Bloopers Video Competition asked users to create a song and video it - then upload the funny bits (mistakes) as a blooper video to YouTube. The winners were picked by the number of Likes on YouTube (after being reviewed by Habbo Staff).
The winners won a trophy from Puffin and a badge.
Fame competition
To win the Fame competition, Habbos had to receive as many respects from other users on the hotel. There was a badge for everyone who participated, the top 100 most-respected and top 10 most-respected.
The winners (excluding banned users as of January 2018) were:
- Admiral
- Alison
- Hardcore
- Ranger
- Special
- Spiffy
- zwd
