more squeee!

DO want! And I know someone who knits. Hmm.....

ThinkGeek has an 18" Remote Controlled Dalek. It runs around the room and if it finds a moving target, asks it to identify itself. Costs too much and our house has too many obstructions, and it would probably terrify the cats, but AWESOME

I have someone on my flist who made one of those for another flister's kid. It was adorable! There were several Doctor Who fans with kid-fans there, and it's a miracle the Dalek didn't "disappear" before it went home with its intended recipient. :D

ETA: You need a pink Dalek userpic! Unfortunately it's not credited, so I don't know who made it.

And I love this one: Dalek Christmas tree.

Ooh, TY for the pink Dalek! *sets to default* (I like your icon too. Mind if I steal? I swear, Doctor Who is taking over my icon list-- good thing I have at least 20 free spaces left!)

The Dalek tree is also completely awesome!!

Could I pester you for fic recs? Nine or Ten gen, or Nine/anybody but Rose, or Ten/Martha (don't know much about Ten yet since I have to watch what Netflix sent me before I can ask for more Who disks, but I'm cool with that pairing). Doesn't have to have Daleks in it, but Dalek!fic would be great as well.

Thanks!! (BTW, I owe you a comment, but I'm having serious issues with Rob's laptop and the cord that won't work (yet he refuses to let me use the new one), and we won't even get into what he did trying to "fix" mine. I try not to rant about my husband on my LJ, but let's just say that I'm very, very perturbed at him right now.)

What a coincidence -- I just finished season 3 of DW yesterday! I have the second season of Torchwood in my queue next, but I'm kinda conflicted about whether or not I really want to watch it right now; the first season (or "series," rather) was really, um, not good. But I've heard it gets better, so yay?

And holy crap, those Dalek links you've posted are adorable. If Mitzi's terrified of bubbles, I can only imagine how she'd react to a remote-controlled Dalek! *laughs* A lot of my Bryn Mawr friends are both knitters and big Doctor Who fans, so I'll definitely have to pass that knit Daleks link along. :D

I just finished season 1 of DW, have to work through Tilt and Generation Kill before I can get more disks-- part of me is tempted to just return them unwatched, but I'm sorta kinda curious what happens with Tilt now that I've watched 2 eps of it, and Generation Kill is by the Wire team, so of course I'm curious about that... Anyway. Yeah, look down a couple of posts to my big DW reaction post-- lots of comments about Torchwood in there, apparently the writing is just godawful in general. travels_in_time said she basically treats it as bad but enthusiastic fanfic of DW

Thought of you when I read this: Dalek found in a pond

Appropriate Icon is Appropriate

[pinkpolarity]

That. Is. Awesome. Both the find and the writeup. Excavate! Excavate!

Hee! :)

Re: Appropriate Icon is Appropriate

[wabbitseason]

And there is now even a fic challenge: dalekinapond How did it get there? Was it lost? Dragged through the mud?

Damn. All my Who icons are on hildy. I'll be curious what you think of the Master when you meet him. He may be too mustachio twirly for you.

I want that VO Dalek.
You have no idea. They are my favorite Dr. villains.
