Shaggydog Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 (edited) The nomination period is over, and y'all are cordially invited to vote for Japanese Toy of the Year, over at http://toty.waist-joint.com/. This is the heir to the fabled Toybox DX TOTY, and the rules are very similar. You'll have to register an account (only takes a moment), and there's a short visual quiz about Japanese toys preceding the voting, all in good fun. Don't get annoyed if you don't know the answers. Thanks and good luck to your candidate! Edited December 22, 2006 by Shaggydog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hiriyu Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 I also got 5/5 on the quiz, and I also suck apparently TOTY: Gunbuster Worst: MP Starscream (Choices were limited, and I don't have much affinity for the TFs, nothing personal though) ToyCrack: Revoltech Ingram Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eriku Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 BEST: Scope Dog 1:18 Dual Model Zwei I just got this thing two weeks ago but it is hands down the most pure toy joy I've experienced all year. This thing is one of those toys that keeps giving. WORST: MP Starscream I don't even have one and I know it sucks. Why? That color. And I really don't like the sculpt that much anymore either. I love Starscream, but this toy just doesn't do it for me. Gimee the Classics version any day. TOY CRACK: Waaaaay too many Revoltechs in this category. I like Revoltech just fine, but toy crack they are not. I voted for Fatty because I like Votoms, but in my heart I voted for the mysteriously absent THS G1 Hybrid Convoy. THAT is a perfect example of toy crack. So many people were nominating THS I'm really surprised it didn't make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drifand Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 BEST: 1/18 DMZ-02 STRIKEDOG - Seriously, this is way more exciting and fun than the DMZ-01 Scopedog! And it's definitely a toy you can play and pose without having to worry about paint-chips or CAD oversights. WORST: MP-04 CONVOY 'PERFECT EDITION' - Reissue an excellent toy with lousier QC on parts fit and finishing, then nearly double the original price because of a half-hearted trailer that doesn't even include Roller or even come close to the Hong Kong bootleg trailer from over a year ago. It's a PERFECT RIPOFF. BEST TOY CRACK: REVOLTECH AV-98 INGRAM Kaiyodo delivers! Dynamic poseability that isn't fragile! Useful display stands! Cheap! Excellent sculpts! Extensive line-up!

Fort Max Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Toy Crack : wtf is a toy crack? I don't remmeber what i chose. Cheap toys that you get addicted to buying and find yourself in need of a fix when you don't buy one in a while etc. For me it'd be HCM Pros despite the fact that they're not really cheap they fullfill all the other criteria. Best toy: hands down it's Gunbuster the SOC Worst toy: Er, dunno, I don't buy bad toys. ;P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impreszive Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 I have the Masterpiece Starscream. I love it. I can get over the color though. That just doesn't bother me as much. I think that is absolutle minor in comparison to the awesomeness that is this thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Valkyrie Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 For me TOTY : THS-2 Convoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
