List Gunplas & Others for 2009

Total = 207
Monthly average = 17
Highest month of release: December - 43
Lowest month of release: May, October - 8 each

Comparison with 2008:

Total = 126 (107 plamo kits + 19 HCM-Pro action figures)
Monthly average = 11
Highest month of release: March - 16
Lowest month of release: January, October - 6 each

The total number of items we got last year almost double what we got the year before isn't it? ^^ Monthly average, the highest and lowest number of releases through have increased as well.

While the MG series maintained at 1 - 2 releases a month, we saw an increase in other series that help to explain the huge increase in the number of releases:

(1) HGUC - revived thanks to the upcoming "Gundam UC" OVA. We got 4 for the last 3 months in 2009 as compared to a total of 8 for the whole year of 2008.

(2) 1/100 series - Releases from three series: Gundam Double O Season 2, The Designer's Color Ver. and SEED VS Astray last year as compared to just Gundam Double O Season 1 and 2 in 2008 (and you know just how few there were from the first ^^;)

(3) BB Senshi Sangokuden series - In 2009, we only get on average 1 - 2 kit every month; last year, together with Gaiden, it was 2 - 3 kits per month, exclusive of the Sengokuden series.

(4) Macross Frontier - Super packs for Alto and Ozma's unit, Super pack singular release, Micheal's units, Luca's unit, Armor packs for Alto and Ozma's unit, Deculture! Ver., and Brera's unit last year vs the entire 1/35 Mechanic Collection Code Geass and 1/20 Votoms series in 2008.

No fight at all (in terms of releases). ^^;

(5) Pokepla and PellerModel series - new series this year.

(6) MG Clear Part Campign - 22 "new" MGs in December alone skewed the statistic a bit as well. ^^;

207 kits in total. How many did you get? What is the percentage of your total purchases to the total number of releases? ^^

But the more important question to ask is, which one is your vote for the best release? ^^
