It's that time again! (Not that we have a set time for these...) It's time for a new Timmy Talk! This one is for the Summer Convention Exclusive Eleventh Doctor with Cyberman Head (aka Handles).
Here we go!
This one I have a picture of the box (I've been trying to take pictures of the boxes, but I forget sometimes!). This was part of an online Hot Topic order that was shipped to my house. The box suffered minor damage from the trip but overall was in pretty good shape. But what is with that sticker placement?
One thing I noticed is that in box, it is a little difficult to see Handles as he is somewhat behind the picture on the front. If you're keeping this Pop in box you may want to change the angle you display him, if you want a good view of Handles. :)
And they definitely put a lot of detail into the little guy! Handles looks just as he does in the show, but of course Popified. :)
Eleven himself isn't too detailed. The head is the same head they use for all of the Eleven pops. His clothes do not have much of the detail the actual outfit had, but I feel that the simplicity balances out Handles well. After all, the little Cyberguy is the starring detail of this Pop.
Because he's painted so simply, in box collectors aren't missing much by not being able to see the back. Not too many details back here. But look at those cute little elbow patches!
Standability is probably an 8/10. He's a little wobbly but he stands up well. He's not likely to fall over on his own.
I think this little guy is a great addition to any Doctor Who collection. His appearance is very different from the other two Eleven pops despite having the same head, so you don't have to worry about him being super similar to ones already in the collection.
If you're looking to find this guy, I think you probably still have a pretty good chance of doing so. I've seen him in several Hot Topics in my area, and he's still on the website. They also still have him on Forbidden Planet and Popcultcha.
Thanks for tuning in to another Timmy Talk! Please let me know if there's anything you would like to see in the future. :)
