Thought I'd quickly share my experience with this achievement which I obtained today (Week 5).
If there is certain criteria for obtaining each of the upgrades, I no longer think it matters after the hotfix on 27th June which read "Improved the Winner's Podium upgrades to have a better chance from the rewards chest at the end of a match. This chance increases if you open many chests without getting an upgrade".
After obtaining the high score for week 5, I checked my progress for this achievement and was 4/11. I then repeatedly queued up solo as DPS and did the absolute bare minimum - killed the trash, killed the two bosses in round 1, killed the two bosses in round 2. I didn't collect any gears, I didn't try to move the bombs, or go out of my way to stand in the spotlights, and I didn't use any items. I just went in and 'killed the stuff'. I ran out of time on a few runs and died once or twice during the runs. I was only averaging 95k-120k score each game.
Doing the above, I was obtaining a Podium upgrade every 3-4 games. Each game only takes about 5 minutes doing the bare minimum, and it took me around 2.5 hours total to get the remaining upgrades I needed.
So my advice really, is you don't need to go out of your way to get most (if not all) of the upgrades. Just keep queuing up and you'll get most (if not all) upgrades eventually.
Good luck all.

This is quite possibly one of the worst achievements of all time. Zero explanation at all on how it works or how you can even begin to 'achieve' it.
Currently Unobtainable during Week 1 of DD. Toy Obtained after weekly quest during Week 2.
