For this swap you will list three of your favourite things that you enjoy collecting in terms of pop culture items (example tv shows, movies, video game characters - specifically things like star wars, hello kitty, angry birds ……)

Fandom (consisting of fan [fanatic] plus the suffix -dom, as in kingdom, freedom, etc.) is a term used to refer to a subculture composed of fans characterized by a feeling of sympathy and camaraderie with others who share a common interest.

You will send your partner a package with a minimum of five items related to some or all of the favourites listed. Items can be handmade or store bought or a combination.

Choose collections that are recognizeable and easy to find so your partner has a a chance to get you great stuff.

This swap is inspired by the fandom swap group.

Themed items may include, but are not limited to: stickers, memo pads, stuffies, ornaments, magnets, and hand made items.

No recent ones

Canada/US I will post an international one soon.

My fave fandoms are: Marvel comics, Doctor Who, and Star Trek.

For Marvel, I love Spider-Man, Avengers, X-Men, Fantastic Four, Daredevil (honestly, anyone Marvel!!), but I like the comics, /not/ the movies... (Avengers movie is good, but I /hate/ the newest Spidey movie). As far as DW goes, I'm into the classics, not anything Doctors 9-11. My two favorite Doctors are Two (Patrick Troughton) and Seven (Sylvester McCoy). Classic stuff is harder to find, obviously, so anything generic and non-specific to nuWho (like the Tardis, for example) is totally awesome! :) My favorite Star Trek is The Next Generation (Best. Show. Ever!!!), but I truly love them all! And I do like the new movies, though maybe not quite as much as the older stuff... ;) Anything Picard, Data, Spock, Scotty, O'Brien, or Q makes me squee!!

Yes, this is horrifically specific... I'm just throwing my preferences out there. Obviously, I'm /not/ going to be upset if my preferences are not able to be found or anything! I'm actually a very happy-go-lucky person! I'd just rather spell out my likes and dislikes just in case, and I will of course ask my assigned partner for specifics also so I can make the best package possible! :D So, yeah, YAY for geeky swaps!!!

I am beyond excited for this swap! My fandoms will have to be:

Harry Potter, Gossip Girl (specifically Blair Waldorf), Mean Girls

p.s. crossing my fingers for @geekylemur as a partner! sometimes being specific is a good thing! so on that note, please feel free to PM if you get me as a partner and are stumped as to what to send!

Fine, fine. Twist my arm, even though I just did one of these with my group :-)

My major fandoms (and the parts of them I love the most in parentheses, just as helpful suggestions): Highlander: the series, Harry Potter (Hufflepuffs, Marauders, especially Remus Lupin), Doctor Who (Ten's my doctor), Torchwood (Jack/Ianto OTP), Supernatural (SO MUCH), Star Wars (Obi-Wan & Qui-Gon rock), Star Trek (the next generation's my fave), Marvel movie/comics/cartoons (Avengers, X-Men, Fantatic Four), Sons of Anarchy, Lord of the Rings/Hobbit (Legolas, Gimli, Samwise, Bilbo, Kili, all the good guys really), BBC Sherlock, Buffy/Angel (Xander, Spike), Firefly, all the Stargates.

I've got a LOT more listed on my profile or PM me if you need more info about specifics.

KateKintail 01/17/2013 #

PS- Oh, and ANYTHING Ewan McGregor-related :-)

geekylemur 01/17/2013 #

I'm glad there are others who like specificity too! I was afraid I'd be seen as picky or high maintenance... :)

KateKintail 01/18/2013 #

Also I clearly missed the bit about three fandoms. I fail! My big three would have to be Harry Potter, Supernatural, and Doctor Who :-)

My 3 fandoms are Star Trek (the original is best, but I do like all), Batman and Star Wars.
My favorite characters are Spock and Bones.
I like all versions of Batman.
I like Hans Solo and the Ewoks.

Those are specifics to help. I'm not expecting specific specifics as I know things can sometimes be limited.

Darthkrispy 01/19/2013 #

My fandoms are, Star Wars (absolute favorite! I prefer the original trilogy and my favorite characters are Obi-Wan and Han Solo), Doctor Who (Another absolute favorite! I love all three doctors but my favorite companions are Donna and the Ponds), and Avatar the Last Airbender, (not the movie the cartoon). It was very hard to pick just three I have so many fandom's I love but these are definitely part of my top five or ten :)
