Tonex pedal (full size) is hands down my favourite purchase of the year, with November fw update making it even more useful
I've not bought loads this year. Too early to say if the Sunflower trem will be a keeper, but first impressions are extremely positive. Thorpy's tacit Blue is getting a lot of use.
Guitar wise, it's a toss up between a Kinkade Kingsdown acoustic (Adirondack spruce / mahogany) and a rather splendid Fender American Vintage II Strat. The Kinkade is every bit as good as I'd expected (barely played my other acoustics since getting it). I've been surprised how much I like the 7.25" fretboard on the Strat; I feel very much at home with it already and the guitar is a good weight at just under 7.5 lbs. I tend to gravitate towards Teles more than Strats, but I can't put this one down.
