Contests and prizes at XVI Dollscar

Dollscar is a celebration of creativity! All exhibitors, both commercial and non-commercial, pay special attention to the design of their booths and the presentation of the dolls.

To make it even more interesting, we conduct a vote among all visitors and award prizes to the most memorable stands and dolls!

Electronic voting is held on the day of the exhibition, starting from 13:00 and until 17:00. To vote, you need an individual code, which will be placed on your ticket.




The winners will receive prizes from our partners !

Among thematic dioramas

Each thematic diorama can take one of three prizes in the categories:

Best Film or Best Video Game or Best Small Diorama

Best Visual Effects

For Best Film / Best Video Game / Best Small Composition you should vote for the overall impression of the diorama. Let the assessment be influenced by: • arrangement of dolls, liveliness of poses • the idea of the composition and how well it is conveyed • active interaction of dolls with entourage • interesting directorial finds (non-standard staging of dolls and decorations, presentation of a developing plot, etc.) • interactivity (viewers can somehow influence the stand)

In addition to this, all compositions can compete for Best Visual Effects . Here we invite viewers to appreciate not only the complexity and scale of the scenery, but also: • innovative technical solutions • use of unusual materials • special effects (for example, special lighting, smoke, water, etc.) • transformation over time (the stand is modified in any way)

For dolls performing roles in thematic dioramas, individual nominations are provided:

Best Actor or Best Actress

Best Makeup

Best Costume Design

In the nomination Best Actor and Best Actress , dolls performing such roles participate, the gender of the doll itself does not matter. Viewers rate: • general impression of the doll • its correspondence to the chosen role

In the nomination Best Makeup , only dolls with a face-up made especially for Dollscar will participate. We ask viewers to pay attention to: • matching the face-up to the intended image • the complexity of the face-up • the presence of sculptural elements • modifications

In the nomination Best Costume Design , there are dolls in costumes made especially for Dollscar. Should be assessed: • matching the costume to the intended image • performance of the costume as a whole • accessories (jewelry and other small details) • the complexity of additional elements to create an image (such as wings, weapons, etc.)
