The voting is open! Vote early vote often.
A few of you still didn't get me your waifus in time, and a few of you didn't follow the rules too closely, but I'm showcasing everyone who sent me something. Enjoy!

My verdict and possible guesses:
1. Love the use of the trinity glitch, doesn't explain much on the wafiu though however.
2. Ok, where's the bot? Unless f**king Twilight happen to be the bot itself. Good joke entry.
3. Love the use of extenders to make a good replica, 7.8/10 too much extenders.
4. Not much of JoJo fan but it's definitively a speed wagon.
5. I'm in fact, dying inside right now.
6. Got to love the chasis paint job and the weapon. Maybe 090901 or possibly Baconus Yum who made this, due to the "She tastes like bacon" text on the left-hand side.
7. Call me deplorable but I've seen better bots that can knock down a wall better.
8. Don't have a strong opinion about this one, but good job.

And to top it all off, an image which sums up this month's BOTM:

Pretty good analysis,  just to clarify, yes #2 is a pony built entirely with BFE. It also has a custom AI that shoots lightning

Thanks for telling me that. At the time, I thought the second entry was just a 3D model of Twilight Sparkle Photo-shopped into the Splash.Now, I would change my vote, but I already voted.

not a single one of these is even good

like
#8 at least has effort put into it but its splash is ass

apanx really tried with #2 and i appreciate that but it's literally a chassis that shoots lightning

also #7 makes me want to gouge my eyes out with a potato peeler

Waifu's are stupid.

#1 is a disservice to KOF. If you're going to use the trinity glitch, associate it with a character who has long arms or something. Making fun of Trov is so 2016.
#2 deserves to win because it's slightly amusing, but the chassis should have an iron spike up the butt or something.
If #3 had better colors I'd call it one of the best replica of the year.
What is #4 trying to do?
#5 made me spit my drink and almost break my keyboard. I had to vote for it.
#6 reminds me of Wendy's. At least I wasn't thinking about KFC.
I'm assuming the waifu on #7 is either Hillary or the Youtube UI. Reier is not winning this month.
#8 has a blurry background.

not a single one of these is even good

Well this is, uh, something.

1. Not selling me on it.  Splash looks very "thrown together in mspaint".
2. While technically this is very impressive, and the splash is nicely done, it's... not really a bot, is it?  It's not called "Statue of the Month".  I don't think it'll win because I don't think people want ponies on the front page.
3. I mean, it's clearly not good, but I kinda like it.
4. Another "i threw this together in mspaint" splash.  I'd pick it over #1, but not much else going for it.
5. I think the splash speaks for itself here.
6. A solid 3rd place, I would think.  Splash and bot are well done, though neither is particularly memorable (imo, anyway).
7. Hi Asbestos!  Moving on now.
8. nah
