RxH but since they're not there, Elegab was most original/fun/creative/refreshing out of the bunch.

What exactly did SB bring? A vinyl skull? Vinyl flasks?
The new brain was about it, and that was only in the last couple months. Dont get me wrong, I love SB, but fight figures were their bread and butter and now not so much.

Aside from the Astro Brain and UNBK Secreter SB was weak in 2009.

Skull Vampire, Recotoy Monster X, Best Of Balzac Bagmen, RI's to name but some - somehow my shelves are full of good stuff form SB released this year - and several of these got plenty of noms in best sculpt ctaegory also.

You beat me to it, Carl. I think I have gotten more figures this year from SB than any other company. (And I incl the Balzac skullman in the mix, as well.)

Give Elegab rookie of the year, then let the "big 3" tear each other to bits!

How much of that is new? How much of it blew your mind? Don't even get me started on the RI, I had one and think they look great but if Im going to pay $100 for a toy it better be able to stand up unassisted. I don't mean to sound confrontational, I guess we can agree to disagree.

 Re: 3. Best of 2009 Toy Releases Poll: Favorite Company
Well I'm glad some people are digging SB's other stuff - I'd hate to see the support completely drop out from under them. There's just so little that I care for these days. I don't like their "colab" toys (Balzac, Pushead, Usugrow) or their "new line-up" of skulls, Dr. M, etc. Pretty much just like their original FF line-up and suits. The Recotoy was pretty cool though - I wouldn't buy one, but I was interested in the photos and conversation about it. I felt all of the other companies had more strong releases - but with that said I didn't buy anything from them and did buy a couple from SB.

 Re: 3. Best of 2009 Toy Releases Poll: Favorite Company
elegab for such a fun and unique approach to his characters . plus great quality vinyl with great sprays
buta no hana would have been my top choice , but elegab is definitely deserving for bringing something new and funky
