The TOTY is just around the corner so here's the update! We'll be starting the voting sometime in the beginning of January. This should give everyone plenty of time to ponder Christmas robots, and me enough time to get back into town and get things rolling.
Here's how the voting will work: There will be two rounds of voting. The first round will be a primary vote. The top five winners of the primary vote will then continue on into the final vote. The final vote will determine who wins the TOTY and 2nd through 5th place.
Some of you might be wondering why have two rounds of voting? After discussing it among the staff, we felt that having a primary vote would allow everyone some flexability to vote for a favorite robot, even less popular robots, and not have it be a wasted vote on a robot that has no chance of winning.
As suggested by JWM, we would encourage everyone to consider the following criteria before voting: Engineering, sculpt, playability, quality and overall presentation of the product and packaging.
I'll post a Primary voting list in the next couple of days that will include the robots I've noticed over the last year, but please feel free to nominate any robot you wish and I'll be sure to put it in the list!
EDIT: I should also mention to everyone that the voting will be here in the GENERAL TOY DISCUSSION ROOM in the form of a POLL THREAD. We will be sure to paste it to the top so that nobody will miss the opportunity to vote.

Voltes only won by two votes last year. Gunbuster was a very close second.
