Best of 2009 Toy Releases Poll: Now with links to poll!

Hey, for some fun I'm going to administer a best of 2009 toy poll.

Please send nominations via PM for top 3 (in order) in each category below. There is a duration of a week for nominations, at which point I'll collate the winners and publish a poll for each category below with the winning nominations.

My suggestions for categories are:
1. Favorite figure (sculpt) - viewtopic.php?f=5&t=33848
2. Favorite release (specific colorway) - viewtopic.php?f=5&t=34167
3. Favorite Company - viewtopic.php?f=5&t=33849
4. Favorite American Idol - viewtopic.php?f=5&t=33877
5. Favorite resin release
6. Favorite thread (please send a link to thread nominated)
7. Worst release of the year

Notes:
Deadline for nominations is EOD 1/12/09
Any toy (or thread) released in 2009 is eligible. Be cool tho, I'm not going to research release dates - so relying on you chaps to do that.

Thanks.

Great idea.

2009 has been so intense it will be very difficult to provide only 3 nominations for each category !

The worst release category of the year is gonna be fun

Truly amazing to look back and see how many toys got released in a year.
I'm sure I missed a lot of stuff here and there too.

Note: I didn't start the Archive until a month into the site.

Well I certainly appreciate the work you put in to the site, Joe. I also use the sidebar links all the time.

This is going to be tough but I have to say I love Koji's Tokoichi Seiju figure.
