Nice figure

Tue, Jul 11, 2006

The David Tennant 12″ Doctor Who figures have begun arriving in the stores in the last few days. I want one. I have no real need for one and I’m running out of shelf space to display it on, but I still want one. Can’t wait to see the Cyberman in the same range, but when will we see a Rose figure? I need it for the Rose shrine I’m constructing to mourn her leaving the show at the end of last weekend’s season finale. And what a finale it was – Cybermen and Daleks in a slam-down over London, a Who fan’s dream come true.

So we’ve had Daleks (season 1), Cybermen (season 2) then Cybermen verus Daleks for season 2’s finale – so what for season 3? Personally I’m hoping for a return for the Master (I almost thought for a moment he would emerge from the stolen Time Lord chamber the Daleks had with them). I’m also hoping they never, ever invite Peter Kay back on the show (while not every episode was a cracker that was the only one which I actively hated; I know it also bored my friend’s young boys who are usually Who mad). Oh and can we start picking up a bit more on the Time War, please, Russell? It seemed to be ignored this season until the very end and even then it wasn’t gone into – I think a third year should start to address this event which has been hinted at right since the start of season 1. Meanwhile Cheryl on Emerald City draws my attention to a discussion of the merits of Cybermen versus Daleks over on Crooked Timber.
