How in the hell can Huck win for customizer of the year when he doesn’t even do the customs himself.
and the Munny as toy of the year, what the hell is wrong with people?
January 1, 2010 at 2:56 pm(#)
^ AGREED!!! THE ROBO AWARDS ARE MOST LIKELY RIGGED TO BE IN KIDROBOT’S BEST INTEREST!!! DOK A OUTSHINES HUCK AND THE MUNNY WAS NOT MADE THIS YEAR, SO WHY THE HELL SHOULD IT BE TOY OF THE YEAR?!!!

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 shit but CAN’T use their real name. 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 shit 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.

Wasn’t there a prize for those of us who voted?
January 3, 2010 at 3:37 pm(#)
That’s what I thought! I also think Doktor A should have won Best Customizer !!! he’s a genius !
January 4, 2010 at 2:44 pm(#)
Nothing against HUCK, but Dok takes customization to levels I dont think anyone will achieve….
January 5, 2010 at 10:52 am(#)
Dok should have won hands down. Huck wouldn’t have even been in my top 5 list of customisers.
January 5, 2010 at 11:02 am(#)
Yeah! twas great! all the awards went where they belonged.. parat from the tv show… it should SOOOO be lost:P Good job KR

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

Congrats to all the winners..Kid Robot Rocks!

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”.
January 7, 2010 at 7:34 pm(#)
just curious about the random participant prizes…did anyone win anything?
January 7, 2010 at 8:06 pm(#)
Let’s see Huck work with KR consistantly big surprise he won. rigged poll.
January 10, 2010 at 8:48 pm(#)
Who are the winners of the giveaway prizes????
January 11, 2010 at 5:25 pm(#)
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.

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
January 18, 2010 at 2:50 pm(#)
the most addictive show is glee!!!!! :)

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
