    Remote Controlled Extermination


    Oh how I would have enjoyed such a toy as a lad. Doctor Who was on twice a week at 7:30 growing up and it had a big effect on me (having limited channels as a boy, I was pretty much spoon fed BBC shows via TVO) but the lack of merchandise was always disappointing to me at the time. Fortunately for my inner child, the guys at Bifbangpow know my pain...

      I remember I had a toy sub once that worked off of baking soda. You filled it with that and it would submerge and then come back to the surface. Pretty cool idea.

        Didn't they pack those in Cap'N Crunch cereal? At least I remember there being a dolphin like that, and I think there was a sub.

        I never watched Dr. Who, other than a few chance encounters on our local PBS station, KET. But the Daleks remind me a bit of Max Steel's Robo Force, so I think they look pretty cool.

          Chris your absolutely right! I seem to go through a bunch of them so it would make sense they came from a cereal box.

            Definitely. It took me a while to hunt one down, but I have a pink one still in its clear, plastic packet.
