Post Re: 2011 SB Toy of the Year Nominations
Off the top pf my head, some of my favorite toy releases this year where-

"Andy" Skullwing @ SDCC, with honorable mention to the "Andy Too" (both colors) at Superfest
Invisi Boy & Foster by Super7
Invisible Greasebat with guts
Yellow unpainted Ollie
Medicom release Boss Carrions & the poison Apple bosses
Silver Micro Helper & Oozebat by gargamel
TTF 2011 Rangeas (best painted production Rangeas to date imho)
The whole Cotton Candy Machine release @ NYCC- I hope we see more releases like this on the East Coast! ;)
SDCC Zombie GhostFighter
Marbled pink/black bagman (wish I would have grabbed one when I could)

There's many others, but I can't think of them all, because I missed most of them. ;) but these are the ones that stick in my head right now


And a Special note to Rich and Paul Kaiju, for the Death Sludge Demon and Mockbat. Both look to be fantastic (I got to see the test pull Sludge Demon in person) and look to be my favorite releases from each of them when they are released!

Love the idea of this one, but mine don't have nearly as much Pink in them as I would have liked.

I would say hands down Grody Shogun. Hats off to Lulubell & Luke. the sculpts and paint are awesome, especially at that price point. factor in the squeaky wheel release, the nycc design your own customs... I am probably the one forum member here who doesn't collect Grody Shogun but they are fucking awesome.

Same thing here, mine is very muddy looking. Like an ugly brown-ish color.

i really don't see the point in nominating toys that haven't even been released yet.

Why not only nominate a finished toy that someone, somewhere has actually purchased and held in their hand?

I actually didn't even realize there was a pink and black marbled bagman...so these must not have been as pink as they should have been!

Sally Joe. No contest...amazing toy.

So, uh, we going to start a tally or something? Maybe at the start of December, leave it open for a month? Dunno how you usually do it.

Hmm interesting. Well I realized my own personal taste is in older sculpts from the 60's & 70's (although reproductions) or the heyday of modern modern stuff 1997-2005 so it's almost rare I collect anything new anymore. Butanhana, Zollmen, and M1 are pretty much the only new items I get on the regular. That said:

HS Mecha Ju
Hukkokudo Diatryma
Hukkokudo Ceratosaurus
