Is there an agreement on where things like the Translucent Cap Shield or the Puppet Master's Puppet, or the Ultimate Nulifier stand in terms of weapon versus non-weapon accessories?

I say if it can be used as a weapon specifically (Cap shield, Ult Nulifier, etc) by the character in the comic (or movie) it qualifies as a weapon. I know a chair accessory (for example) could count as a weapon and non-weapon accessory, but basically I'm trying to keep things simple and hence the two categories. Use your own judgment. The Puppet Master's puppets is a good example of an accessory working in both categories. If those particular accessories garner more votes in one category than the other, I have no issue where they end up.

Eric, I'm going to vote when I have more time later in the week, but I just wanted to express my sincere and great gratitude for you putting this together. I can only imagine how much work it is just cataloging all of this year's releases for the ballot on top of the amazing photography you do for the best of show.

So, many thanks for taking this on again!

Your quite welcome Lobby. As always, it's my pleasure to do this for everybody.

If Lara Croft does not decimate the competition this year, I'm writing you all off as lost causes. tongue.png

Three voters have cast their ballots and Lara's not doing much... thus far. ;)

As you guys can tell I only buy Marvel. The Thundercats do look real cool though, would understand some of those getting some votes..


Doesn't seem like we had as many mates this year as others, some very high quality ones though. Didn't realize how much I liked TRU 15 until putting the list together, great set. Didn't realize how few X-Men there were this year, sure that will change. This was fun, thanks for doing this!

We are at the half way mark of January and thus far, I have only received votes from 8 multiversers. This time last year there were a lot more votes cast by the half way point. I hope to see a bevy of ballots in my inbox over the next few weeks. If you want that one particular minimate to win the big award, you have to make your voice heard. Hope to hear from more of you soon.

I didn't even realize that voting was open. Maybe you should change the thread title? Anyway, this will be a good time-waster at work tonight.

Took your advice and altered the title. I also extended the voting an additional week (to Sunday, Feb 09).
