Sure! I'll probably do that after voting is done. Maybe even all 3 years combined as well.

Looks like we will be stuck on 8. JKaris didn't have time to finish his and will enter it next year, and inkdanubus is MIA. I tried contacting him, but it looks like he hasn't been around since May. I'll get the poll up soon.

that trophy is the tops. makes me wish i wasn't a slacker so i could at least enter this damn thing. so far my chances of winning are zero. i'll be far enough along in school next year that i should be able to enter and increase my chances from zero to one in a million.

WOW! That is kewl! I hope the Muscle collectors know about this offer...that $20 would be good for 2 uncleaned $10 Muscle customs!!!

Thanks everyone for the compliments on the trophy. When Pete and I were discussing the whole gold trophy thing...I had just got my hands on a brand new super bright "Aztec Gold!" In person, I love the look of the dark gold plastic skin vs. the painted Aztec gold armor!

There are so many deserving customs that it was hard to vote. I voted for the Wuzzle! That was a brillant concept and well executed! :)

Not sure if it's possible and obviously it's a little too late now but would be cool to do multivoting. for those not familiar initially everyone gets two or three votes, then the choices are narrowed down to the top 2 or 3 and then everyone gets one vote. Definitely the way to go when there are so many great entries

I'm excited I pulled in any votes. In all my years of talking about what would make a cool custom... this figure represents my first custom ever. I know it was mostly just a repaint, but I thought it was worth making a connection between Battle Beasts and GIJoe since BB and Transformers are linked, and GIJoe technically has crossed over with TF.
