I'm gonna drop a bunch of releases I thought were excellent- just to get some representation of various fandoms~
- GFFMC Black Tri Stars Zaku II High Mobility - my favorite Gundam figure of 2021, so many accessories- and the dark grey/purple color scheme is a win. - Threezero EVA-01 - incredible EVA figure with lots of diecast, beautiful paint, amazing price - Threezero Shin Getter-1 - amazing price again, fantastic shelf presence, those massive clear purple wings - Robot Paradise Soundwave - best transforming TF figure this year, solid release

I know Getterboi you going to wait on your GX 100 and Pose+ before you cast your FINAL decision.
But can we take a moment to observe these beautiful work of art that were released at 2021? Wow….what a good looking bunch!

Of the choices in the poll, I had to go for GX-100. It represents everything I would want from a SOC release. However, my personal favorite this year had to be GX-97 Daileon. This figure is everything a gokin should be. Nice amount of die-cast, very posable and a great representation of the source material. It was a wonderful surprise and a great figure.

Awww, only one vote per person? Now that makes it a very tough choice to make. Out of my top 3, GX-100 probably is the more appropriate candidate, as it is something I wanted for decades. But among releases I have in hand, POSE+ GGG man, if price is not among part of consideration. I have read about it a lot throughout its release cycle, from the beginning posts of me being skeptical and thought the release was unnecessary when we already have SOC, to the more and more positive reveals and details. On the day I received and opened mine, I was impressed by the details, sculpt, and a lot of clickies. Just played with Gaigar alone for a few days. But it was not until I combined it with the rest of the Gao Machines and start posing GGG, that I was in awe on how poseable they made all parts of it, even the wings can be bent (with clicks) and open up space for waist swivel (which I originally thought can't move after combined as things get in the way). Don't think I have a SOC-ish diecast combiner in my collection that is this detailed, dynamic, yet this sturdy. Until GX-100 came in time and change my mind, my vote goes to POSE+ GGG. (Good that the voting can be changed anytime)
CCS Toys Zero is very awesome (my No.3). But POSE+ GGG's complexity, engineering, and clickies! are even more impressive to me.

Gx100 is awesome... I hate missing it, and it will be a big miss in my collection. I have the dynamite action gaiking (a great representation in my opinion), but having a true gokin representation in scale of gaiking and daikyu maru is a new level of awesomeness... Anyway I'm reaching the end of my collection, so maybe if they do a reissue in the future I will try to get it.

I got the GX-100 a few days ago, but still bubble wrapped in the garage. Just don't have time to check it out to see if it will change my vote, but it was leading quite a bit anyway.
