 Re: Best Two Figures So Far for the First Half 2008
I find an 'odd' connection with the design of the Dempagon---working for a television network and somehow, media and modern communication (i.e. tv, cellphone, towers etc) incorporated in the design does it for me.
I voted Tokoji as the other best. Other choices on this poll makes it so tough to choose just two---but my criteria in voting includes 'timelessness' , 'personality' and makings of a 'classic toy figure', of course this is my opinion.

 Re: Best Two Figures So Far for the First Half 2008
Ojo Rojo gets both my votes. Not a fan of any of the others and can't think of a 2nd new sculpt in 2008 that I dig.

I love Blobpus, but I just don't "get" the Diablo. I even dig the Andagon head, but it's still on that body, so no go... For me it's all about the Dempagons and Blob DX'es. Easily the two figures that I've found my eyes wandering to the most in my collection as of late, and I can't wait to see more versions come out.

 Re: Best Two Figures So Far for the First Half 2008
I'm on board with Ojo Rojo as well. It would have easily gotten my vote (twice)

 Re: Best Two Figures So Far for the First Half 2008
The Boogieman is cool, but DBM Mask Brain combines its best aspect with my favorite figures for the win.
Squirm gets my second vote cause I love octopus.
