How much do you want one?

Oh. Wow.

I'll take the XXL ... I prefer the traditional gray and black, to the shiny decorator colors, though.

How much, I wonder?

When I win the lottery and have a large loft-style penthouse I will want one. If on;y to position outside the door of my private lift in order to terrify visitors. I do worry that it says "Just like the real thing" though. I do not want to risk having a xenophobic, genocidal alien in my pad thank you very much. Not least because Diz might be his first victim.

More than I want my own Dalek hoever, I want to see David Tennant & Catherine Tate in Much Ado About Nothing this summer.
It looks like my bro is going to make that wish come true. When he called me this lunchtime he was looking online at tickets for himself, Mum and me. YAY!

I'd rather have a fully multi-functional sonic screwdriver myself...and maybe the Key To Time...and a type 70 TARDIS...and K9.

WHO are you calling a freak?

My brother will love that.
Have you seen the tin-soldier minis by Black Tree Design?

Ooh! Pretty!
No, they are tiny and really lovely.

But where is teh Ten?
They seem to have stopped with McGann!

Perhaps they feared setting loose the awesome power of David Tennant in miniature form... In fact posting that has given me the fear a little. Much as I adore the Tenth Doctor, he was a little unbalanced at the end. Perhaps it is best not to risk 3cm models coming to life and taking over the world.

Most likely they are only licensed for Classic Doctor Who rather than the post 2005 Who. They're on different license agreements I think. Big Finish have a license to produce Doctor Who audios, but they can only use characters from Classic (1st-8th) Who.

McGann's Doctor has had four or five entire 'seasons' of full cast audio adventures. The final season is about to finish, and then he goes back into the 'main range' with three plays a year for each of the participating Doctors (5th, 6th, 7th and 8th ). In the audio format they've been able to give his Doctor the stories he didn't get on TV. And they are excellent. He's a brilliant Doctor. Has had a couple of excellent companions too. One of them, Charlie Pollard (Edwardian Adventuress!) was partly the inspiration for Rose, in terms of the relationship between her and the Doc.

well, freaks, of course.
