Introduction: The Ninth Doctor is in da house
That was a long wait, he was supposed to arrive in Summer already but they pushed him back for a better paint job and it was totally worth the wait. He's awesome! I can't wait to start playing properly, with better lighting.
See many detailed pictures under the cut!
The box:
A new background! So far we had the TARDIS console, and now the door from the inside. I love it!
Some complain he does not look like Christopher Eccleston at all, but I think when you find the right angle he looks spot on!
The jacket is a bit too large. I'll have to see if I can do something about that. Some use a paperclip to tighten it at the back. Like the Tenth Doctor's coat it has a wire at the seam so you can pose it:
Some accessories - I need to do a rewatch of the first season to recognize them all:
I also got a Tenth Doctor's smiling head, to be used together with the pyjamas that came with the TARDIS. Again some say it looks creepy but I think they managed to do the typical David Tennant grin very well! He really often looks weird / dorky when smiling but this is why we love him, right?
Disembodied hands again ;) I hear it is a bit more difficult to change them than before, I haven't tried yet. The rubber feels harder, more stiff.
More accessories - sadly one of the tentacles of the Slitheen egg is broken. Not sure if it can be glued or if I should ask for a new one.
I also get the black and green sweater if I want to change him:
And now some pictures! The guy on the left was a walkie-talkie that I used as a stand in. He didn't move much.
Getting kinda crowded in my shelf!
Did I mention I love the backdrop? I think I did. Just checking.
