    Not sure how anyone could say Huck did not deserve the award he got. If he was not so popular then people would not buy his stuff. PLus if you look at his webpage under custom toys you can not help but be impressed

  2. c.c.

    in my opinion i luv this site none of my friends do but irdc. this site is awsome nd MUNNY and utr creation toys r the best. even if ur a disigner lik me.

    kidrobot ur the best

  3. rustedhalo

    well, sounds like the REAL people who voted have spoken. Doktor A was the hands down favorite customizer of 2009. I find it disturbing that KidRobot won the majority of the polls. The only justice here is seeing Dexter take best TV series.

  4. Matt

    Let’s see Huck work with KR consistantly big surprise he won. rigged poll.

  5. pandabandit12

    just curious about the random participant prizes…did anyone win anything?

  6. dfan

    The results were predictable, but seriously… Huck. The guy turned dunnys into dolls. Draw a pair of eyes, add an Asian themed outfit and you have a $600 “custom”.

  7. asittingduck

    Good Stuff!… Hopefully we’ll have a shot at the viral video award this year ;]

  8. Claud

    Yeah! twas great! all the awards went where they belonged.. parat from the tv show… it should SOOOO be lost:P Good job KR

  9. jackcuzzy

    Dok should have won hands down. Huck wouldn’t have even been in my top 5 list of customisers.

  10. Danny

    Nothing against HUCK, but Dok takes customization to levels I dont think anyone will achieve….

  11. Button Eyes

    That’s what I thought! I also think Doktor A should have won Best Customizer !!! he’s a genius !

    1st of all let me roll my eyes. OK now that i got that out of the way NEXT!! I LOVE it when poeple come on here (or anyother public forum) and talk ish but CAN’T use their real name/e-mail. NEXT its KR’s 1st time doing this so its not just from this year. Now do you REALLY think they would “fix” the awards?? I mean REALLY?? That just sounds dumb!! And do you REALLY think Dok A gives a ish winning?? Its not like he is gonna get more work 1 way or the other. Everything was picked by “The Fans” … by the KIDROBOT FANS … how did you think this was going to turn out? Get over it and move on.
