Hauls: Missy is here!

Even though I don't really like her character, I do like the figure a lot. So much that I could not decide which one to get and got both. The heads are meant to be swappable but I have not been able to get them off yet. Still, nice idea.

As opposite to other Doctor Who figures, she can outstretch her arms! Very nice. It is necessary to hold the umbrella properly.

She even has rings on her hands:

And here I was wondering why both had a black spot on their hands LOL

Nice boots as well:

I had her try out my Polly Pocket umbrellas I once got for the Torchwood team:

Interesting what you say about River Song and Irene Adler - I don't know River but when I have seen episodes with Missy in them even her dialogue reminds me of Irene (and Lara Puliver - however you spell her name- could have done a wonderful Master). The other thing that worries me is she seems to be a dark version of Mary Poppins.

On a completely different (female) Dr Who discussion, what do you think of Madam Vastra? I bumped into her watching Deep Breath and I must say I like her very much.

River Song is basically a female Jack Harkness. Flirting with everyone, travelling through time, you never know where you are with her right now. I love her but there are lots that think it's overdone and too much and complicated the more she was brought back.

Madam Vastra and Jenny are great! They have been in a few more episodes before Deep Breath. Here is also a fun short clip:
