New Trek ornaments!

I just picked up "The Trouble With Tribbles" ornament from Hallmark today! It's so cute. It lights up, and little tribbles fall on Kirk. There is also a sound clip from the episode.



Another ornament, which I'm going to get later, is the U.S.S. Reliant from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Kahn.



And finally, the communicator! I don't know if it has sound effects, but it looks good.



I think I have enough Trek ornaments for a larger tree this Christmas!

There are a couple of other ornaments from Hallmark that I want this year- the leg lamp from A Christmas Story, and the annual Madame Alexander doll.

Yay!

There will be more Torchwood figures- including Owen, Ianto, and Tosh!

I want them all. Well, the main five Torchwood characters, at least!

Well, hello, Jack!

The new Torchwood Captain Jack Harkness figure! The Doctor Who variation (with Jack in his famous coat) is being retired. Bummer. I would have liked to have that one!



I really do want to get the figures (especially once Ianto is available!), but the DVD set costs so much I may not be able to get them. Ah, well, there's always Christmas!

My duty as an American...

...is to vote! Gee, I wonder what my party affiliation is...:p



The doll is Madame Alexander's "Vote for Maggie" from 2004. I love her little donkey pull toy! I almost bought "Vote for Wendy" (Republican with a toy elephant) just because I'm not totally anti-Republican! :p I wonder if there's a set for the 2008 election.

Also, there's Beanie Babies Lefty 2004- I also have Lefty 2000, Righty 2000 and 2004. I'll get Lefty and Righty 2008 before the election!

My newest toys!

I did a bit of shopping during my recent trip to Louisville. I found another cute duckie for my collection:



I went to the Hard Rock Cafe- I love collecting T-shirts, pins, and shot glasses from the various locations. I found a cute teddy bear:



I also have bears from Boston and the now-closed Aspen restaurants.

I want these!

Jack isn't pictured here, but he's nice. I hope they come out with Tosh, Owen, and Ianto later. I mean really, Lisa the Cyberwoman before Tosh?

I know what I want for Christmas...or my birthday if they're out!

Well...

I never did get around to buying any Harry Potter action figures for myself. I decided to save my money...because I hear that there will soon be a line of Torchwood figures. At least, I read it on a fan site. It's the same company that does the Dr. Who line (and there's already a figure of Captain Jack Harkness), so they should be awesome. Last I heard they would be launched this summer, with a new Jack, Gwen, and a Weevil as the first wave. I want all of the characters...if there is no Owen, Tosh, and Ianto I will not be pleased!

Of course, when they're finally available, I'll have to order them from England. The best source for genre-related toys I've found is http://www.forbiddenplanet.co.uk/index.php .

Right now, the only Torchwood merchandise out there are novels, the DVD of season one, and trading cards (those are coming soon, I think). I want my action figures now, darn it!
