Bow Ties Are Cool. (Not really, but whatever.)

Okay, Whovians, Thinkgeek has the Bow Tie of Bow Ties for you! The 11th Doctor's Bow Tie to be exact! Unfortunately, it looks as though they are already out of stock! However, you can get on the e-mail list to be notified when more show up. It fits necks 15-20" & when combined with any old tweed jacket & a sonic screwdriver, will complete your 11th Doctor Halloween costume! However, if you desire to have an exact replica of the 11th Doctor's jacket, you can fork over $329.99 for that at the same place, Thinkgeek. It too has sold out right now. Holy cow! Really?!



Lucky for you, Entertainment Earth has both as well. The jacket is available for $309.99 pre-order due to arrive in November & the bow tie is available to arrive in November for $29.99. Unfortunately that's after Halloween, but who cares, right?! You can dress as the Doctor any day!

Doctor Who Merchandise Alert!

These cute little wind-ups are only $9.99 ea. ThinkGeek has them now! You better hurry though. I bought two TARDIS' myself.

Leela & Leela & a River.

First off, Happy Birthday to my sweet dog Leela. She officially turned 4 on Aug. 9, 2011. She is the best dog EVER!

Secondly, AWESOME!!! Underground Toys made a Leela action figure! No, not of my dog, of Leela from Doctor Who! Apparently this was one of the San Deigo Comic Con Exclusives!



Leela is 5" & comes with an array of weapons. Right now, Entertainment Earth has managed to snag up a few & they are asking $30.99 ea. for them.

Oh, but there's more! There is another San Diego Comic Con figure that I know you want. They also made my other favorite companion of all time. River Song!!! Not just River Song, but River Song with the Pandorica chair! She is much harder to get hold of though. You can find her on Ebay at anywhere from $40 to $70 bucks.



Don't forget, New Doctor Who episodes start in two weeks!

New Doctor Who

Bif Bang Pow! has just released pictures of a new Doctor Who set! We finally get a Leela! Woo-hoo! Leela of the Sevateem stands at 8 inches tall & is in a retro-Mego style with real cloth clothing.

They are available for pre-order from Entertainment Earth now, but don't have a release date until February of 2012.

R.I.P. Elisabeth Sladen AKA Sarah Jane

Very sad, sad news Doctor Who fans. Our beloved Sarah Jane has passed away. She was 63. Elisabeth Sladen as Sarah Jane was always one of my favorite companions on Doctor Who & the one I remembered the best from when I was a kid. She was witty, charming, looked great in a pair of knee high boots & will be missed by all who had the joy of watching her play Sarah Jane. Positivity & love to those who knew her personally.

All Eleven Doctors!!!

Wow! This is an awesome offering from Underground Toys & Entertainment Earth ! All Eleven versions of the Doctor in one Tardis shaped package! Available in August for the price of $99.99! Not too bad a price. That's less than $10.00 a figure! Figures are about 5" tall.

Also, check out this nifty Tardis. Yes, I said nifty. And bow ties are cool.



It floats in mid-air. How clever is that? Brilliant, I say! The Tardis measures a little over 3" tall. If only it had a button to push that would play the theme song.
This little do-hicky will run you $35.99 over at Entertainment Earth. It is available for pre-order & should be shipping in August.

Action Figure Friday feat. Tom Baker as Doctor Who!

Finally a plastic representation of the Doctor of Doctors for most of us in our 30's & up. Tom Baker portrayed the 4th Doctor in the BBC series Doctor Who. Now Underground Toys has added him to their toy-line of Doctor Who treasures. This figure is 5 1/2 inches tall & includes interchangeable heads. He even has his signature scarf! You can pick him up at Entertainment Earth for about $16.00.
