Reverse the Polarity
Feb. 18th, 2009 01:38 amI pretty much love the fact that the instructions for the Talking TARDIS Money Bank basically say that if after installing the batteries in your bank it doesn't work it might be because you have reversed the polarity on the batteries. I have Classic Who giggle fits every time they pop up.
Also, my toys came today, so I now have a total of ten action figures. The new arrivals are Mickey with his big gun from Doomsday, Martha in the red leather jacket, blue-suited, red-Conversed, sexy specced Ten (Donna was so happy to see him), the season 1 DW Great Coat with incidental Jack Harkness included, and the Torchwood Gwen Cooper doll who is wearing high heeled boots and thus ends up spending a lot of her time on her back, which doesn't actually seem wrong given the character's relationships with Jack, Rhys, and Owen. She does have a pedastal to stand on and holes in the bottoms of her boots, but I find it much more fun to walk into the room and find she's on her back again at Jack's feet. They got the body right and the hair is close but the face isn't very accurate.
Best part? There were pictures on the back of Gwen's packaging of Wave 2 of Torchwood's action figures and they will have Ianto and Tosh and they look pretty close to the actor's faces. No Owen, though. But Spike, I mean Captain John Hart, will be released then, too.
Anywho, I've got them all arranged now on the top of my dresser. Mickey and Martha are holding off a little green dragon, while Season 1 Rose and Nine are fighting a giant pink one. Donna and blue suit Ten are talking to K-9 to see what they can do to help while Cassandra's robot spiders from Platform One are being held at bay by the Great Coat with incidental Jack and his revolver and Gwen, on her back but with her trusty, shiny black gun aimed at one of the spiders. Brown suit Ten in the trench coat and Season 2 Rose are oblivously dancing away in the middle of it all, totally caught up in each other. If I have time this week I may very well do a picspam.

Just as it should be :D
Do the picspam love, especially since they seem to have a life of their own *g*

Date: 2009-02-18 09:42 pm (UTC)Incidentally I took your advice: girl figures now on the way from ebay - Donna and Rose - and I gave in and bought the regeneration Nine and Ten in leather jacket. They'll have to share Rose for now but I'm sure she won't mind. *snorts*
