Indeed, now we get teh best of both worlds. I think once I tally it all up and post a voting form, it will be interesting to see where teh votes lie when people who haven't posted or PM'd me get to cast their vote. SO far the front (and raer) runners are looking pretty cut and dried....but you never know....

1. Juice up the blow dryer, clear duo. Even though I think of this more as a pushead release. OR the edge ghostfighters- bringing it down in 07
3. The cap'n is going to make it happen.

STill time to PM or post noms here. Cut off is midnight PST Jan 1 2008. That means you can nurse your hangover AND give this some final thought!
I removed a nom for McSupersized as these aren't SB figures, they were selling them (btw - I love these guys, but NOT why I removed 'em)
I may also combine some of these into single categories later (eg. usugrow figures) to reduce noms in each category to more mangeable numbers.

favorite - ultimate battle minis (keeping it fun! giant bee is at the top of my want list!)
least favorite - tie between SDCC skullbees/bagmen with too many unecessary variations and all those chrome/space figures...feel like they were phoned in
most looking forward to - new paint schemes that don't suck and remind me of the earlier figures and keep it within the aesthetic that originally got me interested. no new sculpts, no hand paints, just quality standard stock releases. more brains and more bees forever.
also, I can't believe how many people don't like the Japan Spirits set. I think those were one of the better releases of the past year and are total throwback to early SB.

I gotta agree . . . when they originally came out I kinda lumped 'em in the 'Blood splatter' category which I ain't a fan of, but once I got hold of a US Brain in a multi piece trade I completely changed my mind.
It looks so rad sat in amongst all the flat colors I could be seriously tempted to pick up a JPN Bee if one turned up. I see it now as a coloring technique as opposed to blood & gore!

I LOVE the Japan Spirits the splatter and spray combo is to random for me. i wish it was either sprayed or splattered, not both. it looks too much like a kindergarten project to me the way they are now. no real sense of design direction or control. that said i still need a japan version bee... ...damn completist
