Toys Toys Toys

Woo, I found some time to sit down and chat! As usual its been a interesting last couple of months with a few toy fairs we participated in, and the usual mountain of toys coming and going! Its definately been Dr Who month, with the first wave of the new Matt Smith figures hitting. As usual they weighted the boxes with ones of some and multiple of others! It was 12 in a case, one of Dalek Ironside, one of Amy, so they flew out the door. Our cases were
- Amy Pond x 1
- 11th Doctor x 3
- Army Dalek Ironside x 1
- Peter Winder x 2
- Hawthorne (Chief Winder) x 1
- Regenerating Angel) x 1
- Professor Bracewell x 1
- Regenerated Angel x 1
- Dalek Red Drone x 1

I was super lucky enough to have a friend attending the San Diego comic con, so for my own collection managed to get the Dalek Scientist (the orange one), the new two pack Planet of Fire (the Master and Peter Davison), which was great timing as Paul (my Partner) had just recieved his copy of the DVD, in which he had written the pop up sub titles for! And the Fifth Dr in regeneration outfit. I must say, where were all these toys back in the day! Not that I'm knocking the Dapol, as you took what you could get!

I was watching the San Diego Comic Con with interest, as we are in the last throws of organising our stands at this years Armageddon Expo in Auckland. I love seeing the production side of how shows roll out! We have managed to get near the Doctor Who stars attending, Slyvester McCoy, Paul McGann and Sophie Aldred, so its been order as many Sonic Screwdrivers as we can!! We should be up to about 6 staff this year, I'm pulling in all favours I know, although I think I just lost one, as he said he'd be where ever Kristanna Loken will be! (Terminatrix from Terminator 3).
