For Battat, there's the Battat Terra Tyrannosaurus, Acrocanthosaurus, Amargasaurus, Ceratosaurus and Carnotaurus.

The Battat Terra Parasaurolophus, Stegosaurus and Euoplocephalus started being found in December 2015 but only in a very small number of Target stores.  Nearly everyone has been finding them in 2016.  For this reason, and due to the fact that all of Safari's 2016 figures were available to everyone in December 2015, I would include these three Battat figures among the 2016 figures...

For Hasbro, the whole JW line?

I suppose so, yes. It was a particularly big year!

Thanks Roselaar & Rain!

I´m not sure if repaints should really be included. If the sculpt is the same it´s basically the same figure. Then again a different paint job can drastically improve the general look of a figure.  :-\

I say "no" to repaints.

Yeah, I'd say no too , with Battat being an exception.

Bullyland took the year off, unless you count toys from The Good Dinosaur.

Thanks everyone!

I don´t think we need to include "The good dinosaur" figures, do we?
Nope.

If Jurassic World is on the list, than there is no reason The Good Dinosaur shouldn't be.

Thanks for doing this, ScarletSpider! :)

I don't mind if repaints do or don't get included.  I can see reasons for and against their inclusion.  I had thought the only repaints that wouldn't be included would be ones that are a repaint of a figure released in the same year, since I thought that would make them variations of the same figure, rather than an attempt to produce a "new" figure by repainting it in another year.  Something I've just thought of though, aren't some of the Jurassic World Velociraptor toys repaints?  E.g.: I think there are only two different sculpts among the four here: https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=HAS24434&mode=retail

Maybe then, if repaints are to be excluded, this would only apply if they are sold as the same thing that's already in the figure line?  That would exclude all the Jurassic World repaints, except the Velociraptors as they are sold as different characters.  I think this would also exclude the Sideshow repaints and the colourful repaints of the Papo Velociraptor and Tyrannosaurus from last year.  What about Battat though?  Maybe it wouldn't exclude the Battat repaints as they are being sold in a new line (Terra) that's begun about 14 years after the line the original figures were in (Museum of Science) was discontinued?

I'm just sharing my thoughts.  I don't think I have a preference right now.

If the list is complete, we could set up the 'Best Figure of 2015 - poll' now!? The poll could be added to this thread and the title updated...

If I can give a suggestion, can we not have a maximum or minimum amount of votes for this poll? That way people won't have to decide between 10 and 11 or feel like they need to add more when they are fine with just voting for their top 3.
