Graham Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Scream Man, aren't numbers 5 & 6 on your list model kits, not toys? Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 My list would go: - Yamato 1/60 YF-21. Yamato 1/60 VF-1S Hikaru Strike Valkyrie. Yamato 1/60 Destroid Tomahawk. Takara 1/18 Scopedog Turbo Custom. Haven't bought any other toys for myself this year, although I've bought a ton of Star Wars toys for my son.

jenius Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 This list is premature... the DX VF-25 is supposed to be released this year... it might creep into people's lists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scream Man Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 (edited) Maybe it will, but i dunno. Graham - I guess so, but they're interactive like toys, and playable. I think of them as toys anyway. pics: www.dcuniverseclassics.com has some great pics of the line.

VFTF1 Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Here's my list: 1. Yamato 1/60 VF-1 version two (all types S,A,J, etc) - the toy itself is the biggest achievement of the year IMO 2. Bandai Soul of Chogokin God Mars - that was released this year -wasn't it?... In any event - I think it's superb. Anime accurate, and the leg poseability makes it seem like the legs are "fluid" even though they are solid metal. 3. Yamato 1/60 YF-21 - hard not to include this thing. The execution is fantastic. The stand is there. The cockpit transformation is amazing - including the nose-shortening trick. The hands are impressive. The transformation is fluid and graceful. The wheels...everything - this is one of the best achievements in a long long time. 4. Kaiyod- Revoltech...Regult. Yep- that's right. Of course, it's hard to love the Regult just for being a Revoltech, because it has standard Revoltech sculpting and joints - nothing "big" there. And the Regult itself is a fairly run of the mill low tier mecha. BUT - I nominate it because it is not only the FIRST Regult toy in decades, but it is the BEST Regult toy in the history of the universe thus far. Unsurpassable - this is the piece Macross fans were waiting for. 5. Transformers Animated Bulkhead - why? Because 10 years from now he will STILL stand out - love or hate the new aesthetic of animated; Bulkhead is its' premiere representative. He is clearly distinct from every Transformer that preceeded him (although you could say that Cybertron Crumplezone was a bit of a Bulkhead pre-cursor) - and he's kind of a vanguard for the artistic direction of animated. A very bold Transformer - love him or hate him. And a pretty nifty one at that. He's cute (I think); the lower leg transformation is nifty and he's got lots of character to him. I have a ton more candidates but I need to first check if they actually came out this year Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruskiiVFaussie Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 (edited) Well seeing how the 1S Hikaru is going to be my first v.2 1/60, but it's gonna come next year.. so - 1. Yamato 1/60 YF-21 - she's perfect. Good job Yamato! 2. NECO TMNT 4 set (plus i got the Raphael single release just for the ninja climbing spikes) 3. CM Legioss and Tread, i'm so happy i forked out the big bucks for this baby, they are brilliant toys!!! that's it for now, i'll figure out the others after. If i had the 1/60 Roy VF-0S v.2, it'd be third, and the Hikky 1S will be right behind the YF-21.
