2 easy ways to vote :

Voting Rules :

1. You must be a CCA member in good standing to vote, so include your member number when voting. You may vote for up to 3 nominees in each of the 3 open OTY categories.

We have a weighted point system that will determine the final winners:
• Your 1st place vote will be given FIVE (5) points.
• Your 2nd place vote will be given THREE (3) points.
• Your 3rd place vote will be given ONE (1) point.
• You may only vote for an individual nominee 1 time in each category. You are not permitted to use all your votes for 1 choice to gain more points for your favorite collectible item. You can only submit a single ballot to vote once!

2. Specify your 1st, 2nd, & 3rd place choices in each category (COTY, SSOTY, and CKOTY), and match them with the corresponding letters for the item that you are voting in the pictures below.

Each collectible that earns the most total points in each category after all the of your votes have been counted will win a 2025 OTY Award! Our final winners will be announced at our upcoming CCA Convention in June.
