2021 STS Dog Figure of the Year!

It is that wonderful time of the STS year! This topic is for the 2021 Dog Figure of the Year, and the winner will represent this category in the 2021 Animal Figure of the Year! Here are more details of the competition: https://sts-forum.forumieren.de/t23832-2021-toy-animal-figure-of-the-year-preface
You have until February 6th to select your top 3 dogs from the list below, and following this a poll will be opened with the top choices!
All dogs can compete, providing that they are a model from 2021! Good luck voting, it was an amazing year for dog models!
Here they all are to make the decision easier:

No problem!
A very difficult decision, so many wonderful dogs! Here are my top 3 in no particular order:
CollectA Beagle
CollectA Boxer
Eikoh Shetland Sheepdog
The third choice was particularly hard after the top 2 CollectA! It is hard to know how to pick the 'best', as if I judged it by realism and breed accuracy, the third choice would have been the poodle (looks better in real life than in the official pic!) / Afghan/ Airedale, if I did it by the choice of model, so an interesting breed, it would have been the sheltie (Definitely need more models of this sweet little dog! ) or Borzoi, and if it was based on favourites/ breed preference I would have gone with either the border collie, golden retriever, Jack Russell of sheltie! Too many lovely dogs, but my final choice came to the Airedale or Sheltie, and in the end I went for the sheltie through loyalty to the real Bonnie (Even though she is a rough collie ) I found it easier to make this choice when I thought of it as being a list whereby only the top 3 models picked would actually be released, and I realised that it was these three I was most grateful for and would not want to miss!
