The trip includes airfare for two, plus two nights hotel stay, tickets to the premiere and $250 spending money. Total retail value is $2,250.

The competition is running alongside Hot Topic’s full range of Suicide Squad merchandise.

The comprehensive range includes t-shirts, posters, statues, figures, jewellery, hats and belts among other items.
