    Placed my votes. But I think the RxH mini Oni needs to be in there somewhere. :D

    It's hard to imagine going against the Space Troopers with 21 pages and over 12000 views of its thread.

    I feel the opposite...how could you vote for the little spaceman sculpt against the other pieces? Page views and numbers don't mean shite when discussing art.
    Don't get me wrong...I like the Troopers, but I still don't get what all the fuss is about. I may get an OG Trooper, maybe 2, for the collection... but that would be all. Brilliant marketing, packaging, and very low opening numbers generated a lot of excitement for these guys. Now...already starting to see Troopers for sale everywhere. I have a feeling there is going to be a massive army of Troopers before this over.

    For me...massive creativity and talent shown in Dorol & Dempagon. Bemon 2 head comes a very close third!

    imho

    Can't go wrong with the Dempagon or the 2 Header, but I'm putting in a write-in for the Dokugan DX. Much, much love for the DX.

    I swear we had a thread like this mid-year and Boogie took it. ANYWAY, Dempagon, best this year, best in years! My second choice was 2 headed Bemonster guy. I don't have one but it kicks ass. I like Ojo (the current front runner) but it's too much of an "art toy" and I prefer monsters. No hate though, he is cool.

    Why isn't US TOYS Eleking on the list? That would be my favorite of course, next would be SK Dorol

    I love the hone borg--and I'm looking forward to brighter and more colorful releases. Best new RxH fight fig sculpt, IMO. Even though everything about him is different than the OG line up, he blends in so well with them.

    The space trooper is pretty awesome in person, but I don't feel the need to collect them. great little piece of vinyl though! it got my other vote.

    I like a lot of the toys listed, but only seen a few of them in person.

    I would say Dempagon.

    Although my true number one would be wiggly eyed Zudon

    or the Harryhausen Cyclops .


    Overall great year for toys.

    The giant US TOYS Eleking is amazing. Completely forgot to list that in another thread and I own one...

    The Dempagon is much more interesting than the 2 headed D&D Bemon....

    D & D haters!

    I must admit I would like to see the giant-sized Eleking.

    I agree only because I don't have the 2 header and am bitter but not by a whole lot in my opinion. I sit around holding checking out my Dempagon in hand for way longer than any grown man should be holding a toy.
