Here we are half way throught he year, and in my opinion tere have been some crackers in 08! I have 3 joint favorites- This naughty little firm! Post your toy of the year at this point, it can be anything, wether you own it or not, in the case or not in the case of most RxH releases....
Re: Toy of the Year ( halfway check).... the skullpirate and the whole blobpus DX concept especially the one-up one
Re: Toy of the Year ( halfway check).... Classic colorway, best accessory sculpt ever on the mask thanks to cure, cool rub paint job, best quality vinyl thanks to SB, great collaboration, was relatively easy to obtain stateside if you were on the ball and IMO the best plushie insert to date.
Re: Toy of the Year ( halfway check).... I think it's easy to say that with all I've said about these 2, they are my favorite toys. Kappas are one of my favorite yokai characters and Eaton's concept is just way too awesome. If I had to pick one, I would pick Tokoji Seijin ...in any colorway.
Re: Toy of the Year ( halfway check).... Fo' Sure- I definatly need to catch myself one of these! Its beautiful! How about the all clear version? Is that uber rare or do I got a chance?
Re: Toy of the Year ( halfway check).... More UK slang... okay - lemme see if I can decypher the code.. nope, I had no luck.
Re: Toy of the Year ( halfway check).... LOL- trying to post from my Ipod touch doesn't help the situation either! But that first post was pretty bad even by my illiterate standards.
Re: Toy of the Year ( halfway check).... I'll throw my hat into this discussion, for me it's definitely this midway through the year: Yeah the first Gold King Heater for me....
Re: Toy of the Year ( halfway check).... Oooo, Gold King Heater and Ojo Rojo (any of the 3) are good choices too!
Re: Toy of the Year ( halfway check).... Thanks. Logang1 actually spotted him first while we were in Nakano Broadway and pointed him out to me. I saw another one at the same store later in the week, so I think he should be fairly easy to find if anyone is in the area. Nakano is heavily stocked with little mini guys. I also like the little mini Woos as well. The Yamaton is another favorite of mine from this year.
Re: Toy of the Year ( halfway check).... So far this year, I think this is who all figures come to when they want to die.
Re: Toy of the Year ( halfway check).... Definitely my favourite toy this year...so funky ! (sorry for the stolen picture )
Re: Toy of the Year ( halfway check).... I got to go with Paul on this one. Cure just smashes it. Plus they keep getting better.
Re: Toy of the Year ( halfway check).... i agree with the cure boogieman sentiment,,although the GBT version takes the cake for me.. followed closely by lixx's suggestion,,the gold king heater in the background....
Re: Toy of the Year ( halfway check).... So many cool toys have sprung up so far---but my bet is this one...so far...
