LEGO Doctor Who Set Revealed!

We all knew this was coming, and the time is finally here! The Doctor Who LEGO set has been revealed! It’s going to hit stores before Christmas – wink, wink, nudge, nudge.

The stuff dreams are made of

The set comes with both the 12th and 11th Doctors, as well as Clara Oswald, a Weeping Angel and two Daleks. It has both the TARDIS and the controlled room of the TARDIS. I think there’s also a fez in there somewhere. It looks pretty darn solid! Though I don’t necessarily think they got Peter Capaldi right. He doesn’t wear a bright purple jacket. They nailed Matt Smith perfectly, but Capaldi doesn’t sit right with me. He looks more like the 1st Doctor.

He’s definitely the 12th, though. It says so on the box. Check out more pictures Here.

But ah well, I’m not going to complain! The model looks great! It’s definitely going to join the Ghostbuster’s Ecto-1 LEGO set as things I must own someday.

We Must Never Discount the Doctor’s Rogues Gallery

The fine people at WallpaperDirect.com have, for some reason, made a really nifty infographic about the classic villains of Doctor Who. Just like that costume shop that makes superhero infographics, apparently there is a select couple of artists who work for random store websites who have decided that geeky infographics are the best way to go viral. It must be working, because I saw this chart posted everywhere! I can only hope it has helped sell wallpaper.

The full chart is a beast of a size, so join me after the jump to see the whole thing! And join me in wondering when Steven Moffat will finally bring back the Rani!

Also, if the picture is too small to read, just give it a click and you’ll be able to increase the size.

New Doctor Who Trailer Reminds Us that the Doctor Exists!

Hooray for new Doctor Who stuff! Here’s hoping Season 9 is awesome!

Was I the only one who kind of bristled a little at that last line, about the Doctor and Clara Oswald in the TARDIS? I realize that Clara has been around forever at this point, but I’m still not personally sold on her being such a permanent fixture. It’s weird. But hey, maybe the season will be so good I don’t even notice!

New Doctor Who Teaser Trailer!

The new season of Doctor Who is going to launch on Sept. 19, which is awesome. And apparently it’s going to feature a whole bunch of monsters and craziness and adventures! Also, something is definitely up with Peter Capaldi’s hair.

I can’t be the only one who prefers it closer cropped? Giant and puffy doesn’t do it for me.

So San Diego Comic-Con is in full swing this weekend. We’ve already got confirmation that Ben Affleck is going to make a solo Batman movie with Geoff Johns, and there’s all sorts of comic book news pouring in. Being a lazy person, I’m going to do my best to keep up with all the news that I actually find interesting, like this Doctor Who trailer.

If there’s anything specific you’d like to hear my thoughts on, just let me know in the comments! And if you spot anything really good, you can email me tips at hench4hire@gmail.com.

Batman, Gandalf and The Doctor Team Up in a New Video Game

We all know that LEGOs help make dreams come true, but who knew they would take it this far? If this teaser trailer for the LEGO: Dimensions game doesn’t make you believe that anything is possible, nothing will!

LEGO is where this happens, people! LEGO is where Batman can team up with the Doctor and it all seems normal! LEGO is where the Doctor can pick Wyldstyle as his new companion! Man, I gotta get this game.
