Destructoid Network: This week’s finest 12/30/07

This awesome little Destructoid Toy was made by Dtoider ekoala2002 who has a rather nice little custom toy collection worth checking out.

On Destructoid, we announce our game of year as well as picking the best YTMNDs of the year. On Japanator, giapet gives us a preview of the upcoming winter animes. On the C-Blogs, Mix creates a new Destructoid song just for the hell of it.
