      Same. it would be so horrible for them to have cancelled a new Clara figure. I wanted the reveal to be her, but sadly it was this…

      I hope they come to their senses and release a more accurate (s9) Clara. why wouldn’t they? People would buy it, and a lot of people seem to want her including me…. 🙁

      I just want to know what the chances of us getting a new Clara figure are now. we can’t wait forever as she’s technically left the show.

      No. We had 10 in Tuxedo and we were then told there’d be four more. 10’s TARDIS playset, 12th Doctor (The Girl who Died), 12th Doctor (THIS), so there’s still one more!

    Two thoughts. First the line isn’t dead but they do need to make up for the couple years where it was ruined by moving to the 3-in figures. They’re back to 5.5 and I couldn’t be happier.

    Ok, so I’d rather a current Clara than yet another Doctor but I’m sure we will eventually. It took 3 years for us to get a Night of the Doctor 8th Doctor. I think we’ll get a new Clara well before they get around to a Bill figure.

    Question is whether they’ll recognize that it’s mostly adults buying these, not kids, and start doing Class and Torchwood (the Capt Jack they did was DW).

      I hope we get a new Clara before Bill. I just don’t see how they are thinking. Series 9 has just passed, so all of these figures should have been different variants/characters/monsters from series 9. In my eyes, the figures should have been a 12 in red velvet coat, Clara from FTR, 12 in outfit above, and then 2 monsters/billing from the series. instead they gave us 2 12 repaints, a tenth Dr in tuxedo (which doesn’t even make sense) a tardis re release (of the 10th Dr’s) and they’ve cancelled the last one. who came up with the idea to add in a random 10 figure into this wave, and not give us the figures I mentioned above.

      More to the point why has this reveal been bought forward? I suspect its because we aren’t getting the fifth figure reveal so this is compensation. An important point for all the people who hate this figure, would you rather have waited until 3rd November and have this revealed to your disappointment? At least this way you have seen it sooner rather than later and haven’t wasted your time.

      I like it as well, more than The Girl Who Died variant because this more of an original costume for the Twelfth Doctor as he is actually wearing his own costume as opposed to borrowing items of clothing from other Doctors like the plaid trousers. (but that is still a good variant)

    Why so much negativity about this? I’ve seen many people hope for this version of 12 which is in one of his most iconic costumes! (hole jumper, hoodie) personally I love this figure!

      October 27th, 2016 - 6:53pm

      So do I, I’m not negative for this I’m looking forward to hopefully buying both variants along with the Tenth Doctor in tuxedo figure when they are released. It was obvious we were going to be getting this yet again people were looking into the teaser image way too much and now that we’ve got this people aren’t happy. As I have mentioned countless times I don’t like the hoodie costumes that the Twelfth Doctor has worn but as figures they look really good and the new Sonic Screwdriver is an added bonus. Out of the two this is easily my favourite as I thought that Under the Lake/ Before the Flood was an amazing two-parter, although if The Girl Who Died variant was replaced with or if the final announcement was a Magician’s Apprentice/ Witch’s Familiar variant that would be my overall favourite.

    I admit this was not the figure I wanted, but I dont think that the line is ‘dead’. Most people wanted a Capaldi variant, and this is what we have got.
    I know he ain’t in his red velvet coat and all but its still a good figure
    All I can hope for the line to keep fans happy is that we get a big character/ set for the fifth figure.

      Correction, the line has been dead since 2011. Last year and this year have been attempts to revive the line but it doesn’t seem to have paid off. Having said that I still don’t quite understand why people are getting disappointed over this, it was made clear by many people that we shouldn’t get our hopes up for anything major for this announcement and generally speaking this is still a new product, even if it is a variant. It was blatantly obvious that we were going to be seeing another Twelve Doctor variant so its hardly a shock in my opinion and at least its accurate. Neither the Twelve Doctor, Clara or the Curator figures released last year were accurate, they all had inaccuracies but this and The Girl Who Died variant seem to be pretty solid figures and for the most part I prefer them to last years variants. Okay its a shame we haven’t got a velvet coat Twelfth Doctor, a new Cyberman or a new Zygon, but I’d happily take this over a Kate Stewart and an Osgood any day. I’m sorry but Kate Stewart isn’t a popular enough character to warrant a new release and its too late for an accurate Clara figure now as she has gone and is unlikely to return. (however this is the Moffat era so knowing Steven he will make up any old excuse to bring her back, like how he made up a story to bring back Nardole for Series 10)

      Professor Kaxaran I’m sorry, I really wouldn’t. I’d rather have a Collect-and-Build Vespiform re-release and the unreleased teleporting Clockwork man prototype than a Kate Stewart figure, besides if we got her then there would have been a massive public outcry of people complaing about the lack of a new Cyberman, Zygon and an Osgood. Kate may be a popular character among a select number of people but I really doubt she would sell, especially in the US where this wave is primarily aimed towards.

      I have to agree to some level. I am disappointed that they gave us 2 12th doctors, none of which were at least a red velvet coat variant (which everyone wants) and then they gave us a re-released Tardis play set (which most people didn’t like) and then a ten in a tux (which is totally random). The last figure has now been cancelled, and we didn’t get simple and totally obvious figures that we should have gotten like a new Clara figure and a red velvet 12 (which everyone wants). Have you noticed we still aren’t getting figures we asked for.

  • CaptainJimiPie

    October 27th, 2016 - 4:48pm

    I’m sure I will get some hate for this but I’m just expressing my own views.

    We were told we’ve been getting new figures and we have. We were told this would be a new product and it is…sort of.

    The issue I’ve got here is that when you think about we’ve only really been given one new Twelfth Doctor figure, take off the paint and this one and the other hoodie figure will be the same sculpt underneath.

    Now I’m not a fan of the hoodie figures so I probably won’t be buying either of these but this is my problem with the way they are marketing figures right now, I don’t see these two hoodie releases as two new figures, I see it as one new figure/sculpt with two paint variations, and maybe it’s just me but it does feel like it’s a bit misleading.

    If the cancelled figure turns out to be something like a Series 8 Cyberman then they are going to have ALOT of annoyed people on their hands as speaking for myself I’d have much rather had that one the first variant than not have that and have two hoodie variants

      as a collector ( who has every figure ) I would tend to agree, there is nothing wrong with these figures in there own right, they are all welcome but I think its fact there is nothing “new” and that appears to be it for now that’s worrying.

      they do appear to making use of what they have rather than any totally new investment

      I noticed that they appear to have retooled his boots to include tagged on the rear that was never on the Series 8 figures…because that’s a far better use of retooling than to say retool the Series 8 shirt front to include a waistcoat which could then be used to make a Red Velvet jacket figure from the Series 8 body

      October 27th, 2016 - 5:57pm

      It was also on The Girl Who Died variant, it was one of th efirst things I noticed about that figure. Also people would have still kicked up a fuss and said it looks no different to the variants we got last year and the hoodie variants we’re getting are a lot different ti what we got last year. Its a case where the needs of the many (who asked for a hoodie variant thats different from last year’s variants) outweigh the needs of the few. Although I will admit a lot of people, myself included asked for some new monsters to be produced but on the bright side these variants are figures we asked for.

    This costume is featured in all episodes from Last Christmas to Sleep No More except the Girl Who Died (although sometimes the hoodie was unzipped).
    In Magician/Witch the outfit was featured in the young Davros scenes.

    So if we had the red velvet coat Capaldi we would have most of the series 9 costume variants. We would just need a repaint box set or two (ie B&M) to release Hell Bent (red coat repainted black) and Magician’s Apprentice (trousers of Girl Who Died variant repainted).

      For some strange reason the sculpt isn’t based on the AllSaints mode merino hoodie, it’s based on the John Smedley hoodie worn in Under the Lake and Before the Flood. Although it’s inaccurate as the boots worn in the episode are Doc Marten Mayers and this sculpt has the Doc Marten Affleck’s worn throughout the rest of series 9

We aren’t probably getting a new clara figure after this, and I don’t even know if the red velvet 12 will be released any time as in series 10 the dr has another new outfit. I knew this would happen.
