Weta Who?

[Darklord Dave]

This could be intriguing. I'm not that interested in statues, but prop replicas could be very cool.

I just noticed they use the term "WETA holics" on their page - I wonder where that term got coined? Hmm?

 

[Zoomaround]

Yeah, I noticed this also when I was checking out the SDCC mini Raygun Exclusive. It caught my interest....so I'll be checking the site periodically.

The lantern seems to be a clue to the property...

Ummm...

That's not an ordinary lantern. It's what one might find on top of an old British Police Box...

I was thinking it looked like a ship's lantern... or a train...

...oh wait! I went and looked at the picture again, and there is now some words and letters showing (they weren't there the other day when I looked!). It does look like it may be a Police Box... but the letters don't seem to quite work...

 

[Kabukiman]

Statues, props, whatever, it must all be mine!

 

[RoboDad]

OK. Here's the picture from Weta.

And here's another familiar-looking police box...

Oh, and it WILL be MINE!!!

 

[lcummins]

And here's another familiar-looking police box...

Well then, Dr Who it is!

I think it might even be a picture of the same box!

uh, sorry Lonnie - was my thread title too obscure?

Who reads thread titles? I just click on the links under New Posts...

...besides, I have never been a big Dr Who fan so I don't recoginze stuff that quick!

 

[Darth Caedus]

YES!!! Once I saw the top of the police box I knew it was Dr. Who. Now I'll be waiting to see what they make out of it. Always wanted a TARDIS, hope it's now too expensive.

 

[Boba Fett]

Dayum... does this mean I have to pre-order for a TARDIS soon?

There's never enough money...

 

[RoboDad]

So true, so true. But then, I've been waiting for a long time to be able to pre-order a decent TARDIS. I am REALLY looking forward to this...

 

[Minimodel]

An English company,"This Planet Earth",have been selling full-scale TARDIS replicas for a number of years already,along with full-scale Cybermen outfits and replica Daleks.All officially licenced by the BBC.
Wonder how this sits with them

[Boba Fett]

Dang. For that price, that TARDIS better take me through time and space...

I was kinda thinking the same thing.

Background music on a web site... classy.

I can understand a 1/6th scale or full scale, but why would you buy or make a 1/2 scale Tardis? Who knows.

why wouldn't I buy it? If I had the money, sure I would get that.
