Not purchases per se, but my Mum asked for some birthday present ideas this year so I gave her a couple of suggestions. She bought me At Childhood's End, Verdigris, Superior Beings, and The Quantum Archangel

Just bought So Vile A Sin for too much money! But I did find a lot of the other VNAs for good prices so... Whatever! Christmas?!
(Only one to go - Happy Endings!)
EDIT: To make myself feel better, I did the math and, overall, I wouldn't have spent much more for the collection than if I'd bought them in the 90s! (Presumably between kindergarten and playing with trains)

The Minds of Magnox vinyl arrived today, as did the pink shirted Thirteenth Doctor figure I got on an Amazon deal for £5.50.
Also picked up an Ace & Imperial Dalek set from B&M, as all sets had been reduced to £12.99.

Because I am missing conventions and am in a strong nostalgia phase right now. Bought 4 DVD collections of some past FedCon events (the largest German Sci Fi convention). I did attend none of these events, they took place while I was in NZ and back then I was just making my mind up if I hated Doctor Who or not and I had forgotten everything about Star Trek. The panels will be mainly Star Trek, BUT I got the DVD of the visit of Colin and Paul (I wanted to get that one for a while now!) and of course the one with Sylvester, who is an absolute star in his panels (which are the most entertaining I have ever seen). I am really looking forward to this, this will be another Christmas treat for myself. I cannot believe I only paid 15 Euro for these because they are selling out.

Not strictly a purchase, but I got Adventures in Lockdown as a Christmas present.

Like for my birthday, my Mum asked for a couple of Christmas present ideas for this year. I now finally have The Knight, the Fool and the Dead, as well as Beautiful Chaos, Bullet Time, and Tomb of Valdemar

So, not mine, but it does count as a 'gift', and well, look at it!

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

Through Facebook marketplace I found someone selling about 30 Who dvds, from Troughton through to Smith. There were a couple that I already had (my collection is nowhere near complete) but not enough to put me off buying them. That’s what I’ll be doing for the next few weeks. Already watched City of Death, Enemy of the World, Logopolis and the first 3 Martha episodes. My wife did ask if it would take as long as the Star Trek rewatch, and was not happy with, “... maybe...”

Not a 'purchase' as it is free to download. An excellent centenary (or 101 by March) celebration of Patrick Troughton's era as the Second Doctor. Its like a bumper 1980's DWM Special Edition in tone, content and presentation. Very cosy reading for a cold, quiet afternoon in. The DWAS Celestial Toyroom Annual 2021

Another trio from the BBC 'Target Books' revival: Love the retro artwork - true to the range circa 1973 - 1974.... That Police Box on the McGann is quite a homage to And the Daleks, I think.

I've given up hope of getting an Aus copy of The Complete Specials box set, so I've lumped for a UK version. The spine won't match the rest of my collection, but I'll still be able to watch it so it's not that big a deal. Also bought a UK Blu of the complete Torchwood box set too

Good point (I'm not normally that remiss ) Blu-ray, although both versions have been OOP in Aus for a while now as far as I can tell.

Put pre-orders down for Seasons 8 and 24, as well as a Blu-ray of Revolution of the Daleks. Normally I'd wait for the Series 13 set rather than getting this separately, but I need a copy of it for video reasons Funny thing about Revolution though - my receipt says I've ordered a story called Revolution of the Darleks. You'd think people being lazy wouldn't got to effort of adding a letter to the word rather than checking how it's meant to be spelt

Got myself quite a few Doctor Who books for cheap:
Decalog 2 Decalog 3 (I really enjoyed the first Decalog collection and I heard that all but the fifth are worth it)
State of Change The Eye of the Giant (AlienEntertainment was having a sale so I picked up two of the very cheap but good VMAs I was missing)
Vanishing Point Rags Asylum
