Hello members, since we are FINALLY in December, i decided to create this thread to summarize the best releases of the year so far and the best toy of the year in general, i will include a poll at the end of the month so we can vote for the best release, i know its a bit early but im so excited for this month releases The rules 1-you can include reissues2-you can include repaints
3-you can include adds on (optional parts sets) 4-all figures from all manufacturers can be included disregarding the material of build 5-no numbers limits, put everything you think it deserve the title here is my list so far 1-DX Great Mazinger (not sure if i can include it since it was release late of December 2015) 2-Fewture Juohmaru 3-Fewture Spazer & TFO set 4-SOC GX-59 Daltanious Edit the majority if members decided we shouldn't include reissues or repaint therefore Rule 1 & 2 are no longer valid

I don't really agree with being able to include reissues - it doesn't matter how many times it gets a reprint, GX-59 is still a 2011 toy.

well my point of view is some of us missed it for a reason or another but with the reissue they are able to get it and gives a valid review on it however if the majority of the members agrees that reissues should not be included i would happily remove that rule i totally missed the aile strike do you know where to get one it will be my 2nd Gundam Too early to do this. Something will release in December like SOC Golion. if you bother to read my introduction my friend you will see that i said "at the end of the month i will include a poll so we can pick the best toy of the year" , i know about the SOC Golion and there is couple of figures also im waiting for along with Golion think about it as a head start so alot of members can participate

s_gokin heres an ebay seller thats far cheaper than the guy i bought mine from www.ebay.com/itm/122229369623 but honestly if you double or maybe even triple the price id still be satisfied. its just that good. its huge at 1/72 scale, led lights, great accessories, clicky joints, tons of die cast, fantastic plastic quality, great painting, its amazing. its on par or even better than bandai metal build quality.

I've got to say, Sentinel Mazinkaiser has to be in the running. Really a shame they priced it so high. I think a lot of people passed it over for that reason.

Me too.... I think if it was priced $200 it would have sold like crazy.
Now with Bandais war path, its going to be on the back burner for lot of folks.
My TOTY nominations are ~~~
HMR Monster! SHF TMNT!! SOC Voltron!!! IF it gets released this year that is....i dont even have to hold it in my hand to nominated this guy.

Yeah, I figured the price would have dropped by now. And BBTS still hasn't even gotten stock in yet. It came out in August! I'd also like to get a shout in for the SHMA Shin Godzilla that just came out. It deserves a nom just for the tail alone!

Also, i'm sure that 2016 had more than enough great toys released in its year that you don't need to rely on toys released prior to in order to have a worthwhile list. sorry to derail, but why the hell are those sentinel toys so expensive?dancouga, black wing, kaiser... its like you have to rob a bank to afford them! sigh. /whine over I would love to get that Sentinel Mazinkaiser, but I just can't justify paying 30,000 yen for a toy that doesn't transform.

Here I go: MO Show Aile Strike Fewture Grendizer and Spazer SOC Voltron ? No real toy yet. I do agree with the other comment though about waiting until the last toy we're looking at is released this year. No reissues or repaint without significant change? Maybe? Or just no. LOL!

I'd like to request including The Great Mazinger DX, as I think most people got it this year. Also, no reissues/repaints, please.

I would love to get that Sentinel Mazinkaiser, but I just can't justify paying 30,000 yen for a toy that doesn't transform. thinking the same.. too expensive,, for a non-transformeable... also it kinda looks like an upgraded Revoltech. I prefer a truer to anime Aoshima version.

I love the Aoshima Kaiser's look too, but it is really showing its age. My 98 year old grandmother has better articulation. The Aoshima looks very good in an A-stance with straight arms, but can't do much more.
My grandma can't hold an A-stance. She won't fit in a Detolf either.
