2016 Vinylmation Isle Awards

Welcome to the 4th Annual Vinylmation Isle Awards! As an obsessive lover of Vinylmation, I decided there's no better way to honor the hobby I love so much, than to award some of the best figures and artists for their contributions to the Vinylmation universe this year. (Vinyls were only eligible to win in each category if they were released between January 1 and December 31, 2016).

And the winners are...

Favorite Disney Artist

Ron Cohee

Ron Cohee's work has continued to be impressive this year. The Mickey Mouse Club set was on point, but I also love his Attractions: Jungle Cruise Eachez figures, and of course Br'er Fox from the Attractions: Splash Mountain Eachez.
