I've been looking for - and found - some new series Doctor Who minatures for my game.

There are some fantastic stuff out there. In the barely legal category, I have found Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Firefly figures. Plus random awesomeness: Jack Carter, Robbie the Robot, Pirates of the Caribbean. Cat people. One site I am sure is dedicated to Life on Mars figures.

I've found Federation troopers, but alas no crew. I might make that my challenge: they're basically simple enough designs, so hunting out things which are close could be fun. There's almost certainly a way to do it with customisation, as most of them are basically medieval clothes + 80s hair + sci fi gun. There's no point to missing an opportunity for copious praise: I must confess, loudly, how much I love the costume design, and indeed design in general. It's very consistent, both within the world as a whole and per character - they feel very much like real clothes, not costumes. And yes some of them are awful, but because of that consistency it comes across as a bad fasjoon day.

Unfortunately, it's easy to get distracted by cool things you'd never use. I really need the Harlem Avenger - and I'm sure once you've seen it, you'll need one too. I'm not sure my life is complete without a Jack the Ripper. This just made me feel homesick...
