Re: Top Releases of 2008. I would have to give quite a bit of thought to choose my favorite standard size release...a truly amazing year...but as far as mini's go... I concur with the sitting Kanegon, I only have the pink one, and it rules. ...but my personal favorite mini for '08 would have to be the Yamomark 'Gang leader' frog guy...  This guy just makes me smile...friends that see my toy shelf are always drawn to the little smoking frog with an attitude.

Re: Top Releases of 2008. So many threads like this I didn't know which to post in. I chose this one, screw it. Dempagon overall, and this one in particular. The others are my "honorable mentions."

Re: Top Releases of 2008. I'm torn between Drunk Boy and this guy.  Zudon would be my 3rd runner up.

Re: Top Releases of 2008. Ohh Anthony I like the top ten idea better than just one. So many good releases this year:
1) Zollmen Maza
2) Shikaruna Dororu
3) Shikaruna Bagun
4) Toygraph Spacetroopers
5) Hukkokudo Space Kaiju 1go & 2go
6) Zollmen Bembera
7) Zollmen Zudon
8 Emupaiya King Heater (first gold one)
9) Shikaruan Dagigon
10) Butanohana Kurozaru
That pretty much covers 2008 for me. I agree 100% that 2008 belongs to Shikaruna and Zollmen

Re: Top Releases of 2008. By far the funnest part of being on this board this year was the Zag contest  The Bigaroid... crappy pic I know  Loads of Booska Toys  And the new GB and the Micronaut flash back which was one of my favorite toys and brought me to 'here'

Re: Top Releases of 2008. I love that green booska, redhanded. first toy that made me grin. I'd have to say these are the tops for me.   Ok for the folks who've been following this line, the Fatty VOTOM is kind of a big deal...fuckin' FINALLY!  Absolutely wonderful figures:  ..and there's lot of rad shit that I don't own.
