I've never imagined I would have the opportunity to score one Anraku Ansaku toy... Now, I will be adding more than one to my collection: UNBELIEVABLE 2015!!!
Ben, that pink Dako is great – still need to find one some day! Only bought a handful of toys in 2015, but worked out a nice trade for this pair at the start of the year...
Thanks Ian! Funny thing is I'm pretty sure I was working out a deal for this guy at the same time you were working on the that Gorilla!
I only snared a few toys this year, all of which make me very happy, but this wee sullen fella stands out among the standouts: The third Buta I ever fell in love with from afar: Sweet little Pyggy with the sherbet sprays. Bless you, Bwana. Honorable mention: Spoiler M1Go's finest take on Bullmark's Goji mini. Yum. Thanks again, Rei! ButaNoHana Pigmon Pygmon Pigumon M1 Yujimade Godzilla
Congrats to all on your 2015 score(s) of the year. I have two that are neck in neck for favorite score of the year: Thanks to a fellow board member in helping reduce my Christmas wish list with AA Public Hazard Cobalt: ...and then there is the James Groman painted Rotten Rexx....pics just don't do Groman's paint job justice: Wishing all a Merry Christmas, Happy Holiday, And Happy New Year!!!
This custom set done by PK stands out the most for me. To many to choose from though, I love everything I got this year. Thanks for all the awesome pics. Also love these:
Really tough choice. I managed to get several of my top long time wants this year, including a blue Marusan Neronga, a Bullmark Saigo, and a giant-sized Bullmark Jet Jaguar, but I think my favorite was this:
^ That Rexx is really awesome. My score of the year is currently still in Japan unfortunately, and will not make it here in time for New Year. I'm going to post a pic here once i get it.
I've had to slow down on the purchasing this year, so not so many to choose from, but this set i traded with Cindy is a no-brainer. Bear Model GID Godzilla Vs Mecha-Godzilla.
So much awesome stuff in this thread, I feel my score will pale in comparison for most people. however, I have been after the green S-Taiin since it came out, and always imagined the pink one would be impossible to attain. Then I got both in one swoop. Awesome. 2015 is made.
I got a lot of really great Grodys this year, but this guy stands out. The paint is absolutely wonderful and the mash up is a bit odd but it still feels very cohesive. And the GID hands bring it all together somehow. Luke's ability to bring together a piece with seemingly haphazard elements is wonderful.
That Grody is insane looking! ^^ I dig it. 2015 has been a great year for toys but I think my #1 for the year is this custom Lolgolth Gnazgoroth done by Joe Whiteford.
detroit_denver, you're the one that got that whiteford Horumora? That was an awesome piece that just popped up on his ig. I saw it not too long after he posted it but it was already sold... You got some really great pieces from him.
Yeah I was super lucky to snag that Horumora. I was waiting on a few commissions from him when he started his toy purge. He sold so many amazing toys during that period I wish I would've had a couple grand sitting around. Sad I missed that Rotten Rex for sure. Never enough Whiteford!!!
