I Haz A Ianto!
Oct. 24th, 2012 02:16 pm
Finally, after I don't know how long, I have managed to get a Ianto Jones action figure! It was definitely worth the wait =)
Needless to say, my two Jacks (both Doctor Who versions of Jack in his flight suit) are ecstatic. Ianto is a bit overwhelmed. He was fine when I introduced the first Jack, but when he saw the second one he fell over. He seems to have recovered now and they're just getting acquainted, but I hope he can handle things when my third Jack (a Torchwood Jack this time) arrives in a few days, I think I need more Iantos...
Much to my amusement, Ianto is a bit taller than the two Jacks. It appears Jack must have grown taller after becoming immortal!

Date: 2012-10-24 02:35 pm (UTC)I can't wait to see if my Torchwood Jack will be taller than the Doctor Who versions!
I'm also trying to get a Jack figure wearing the Coat! I might have to invest in a Doctor so that all the Jacks don't exhaust Ianto. I wonder if there's a Ninth Doctor action figure... *trots off to find out*

A double dose of 51st-century pheromones made him weak in the knees, perhaps, or maybe it was the result of all the blood running from his head to parts below and he fainted. Ianto's always had a very physical reaction to the Captain's presence--how could you do that to the poor guy! :-p
Regardless, I'm sure he'll adapt nicely. Ianto's resourceful like that. :)

(I wish I had some alien tech to turn my Ianto into the real thing!)

Date: 2012-10-25 04:28 pm (UTC)Now I feel bad--your Ianto is cavorting with two Jacks (and soon to get a third!?!) and a Doctor, and mine is still sealed in plastic, alone on a shelf of Torchwood and Who books. I told him it's so he doesn't get molested by hobbits, dwarves, ringwraiths and orcs (my only open figures) but he doesn't seem very grateful...

Date: 2012-10-25 04:40 pm (UTC)New Torchwood Jack has arrived! Don't know how long he was sitting out in the porch, waiting to be let in... Clearly he couldn't reach the doorbell =P
Torchwood Jack is Ianto's height (YAY). He looks a bit cross-eyed and drunk, but Ianto doesn't seem to mind. No one fainted during the introductions this time, but Jack dropped his gun and now refuses to hold it. Maybe he wants to keep his hands free for other things, lol!
Still keeping my eye on the possibilities of a Jack in Coat and a Ninth Doctor. Might take a while to get them, depending on coming auctions. There are some available, just depends on the price since I paid so much for Ianto (and he was low priced compared to most Iantos!)

Date: 2012-10-25 06:21 pm (UTC)Oooh, I didn't know you could get an 18" Jack! Wonder why he was barefoot. How odd! Yeah, I don't think I'd check either - it would be such a let down to find he wasn't. Of course, by the 51st century, maybe men have retractable bits... It gets cold in space, lol!
I now have three Jacks and a Ianto. Ianto must be feeling very satisfied, lol!

Date: 2012-10-25 06:26 pm (UTC)I've seen ads for Doctor Who figures, and you can get Daleks and Cybermen, which would be a nice addition, and a TARDIS as well. I don't know about any of the other characters tho, I like the people I have!!
Would you believe I also have a life-size cardboard Captain Jack, posed in his greatcoat and looking sexy as all get out!!!! It's one of those displays you see for books and movies and whatnot.
You gotta love eBay, baby!!!!!

Date: 2012-10-25 06:42 pm (UTC)Oh, I love ebay, I spend way too much there! There are some great Doctor Who action figures - I'd like to get an Ood. I like Ood! Maybe the human/Dalek hybrid too, what was its name? Dalek Sec was it? Can't remember. He was quite cute with his little tentacles.

Date: 2012-10-26 12:16 am (UTC)Yeah, he's not buying it either.
Yay for TW Jack, although it's a bit odd that he'd show up drunk! Maybe the thought of competing with not one but two of his younger selves was a bit daunting and he needed some liquid courage?
Of course he dropped his gun--he's planning on getting both hands on that delicious young Welshman as soon as he can. :D
Good luck with the rest of your collection!
