    I’m thinking it’s about time DWA had a new look come the new year to match with the new TARDIS Interior, New Cybermen, BLAH BLAH BLAH! It would also suit Jenna! The current mag style is getting a bit tedious now!


  7. Posted by: Doctor Rules December 17th, 2012 Reply

    No mag to look forward to on thursday :sad:


  8. Posted by: Stetzon Man 200 December 16th, 2012 Reply

    I’ve got no. 277-298. I also have issue 210.

    Issue 300 next week, hope they do something special!


    • Posted by: Esterath December 16th, 2012

      I doubt it.


    • Posted by: Doctor Rules December 16th, 2012

      Actually, it’s in a fortnight. They are taking a christmas break. and for issue 100 and issue 200 it was 100 or 200 gobsmacking weho facts. So that’s probably what they are going to do for issue 300.


    • Posted by: Esterath December 16th, 2012

      That would be lazy and the facts aren’t even good!


    • Posted by: Cameron47 December 16th, 2012

      if they are doing 300 gobsmacking who facts it will probably take up three quarters of the mag.


    • Posted by: Esterath December 16th, 2012

      Increased page count?


    • Posted by: Doctor Rules December 16th, 2012

      They never do an increased page issue. For issue 200 it was the same 36 paged mag. the 200 facts took about 21 pages.


    • Posted by: Esterath December 16th, 2012

      They have done increased page counts before.


    • Posted by: Doctor Rules December 16th, 2012

      ok. but anyway i think 300 facts will be useless. i remembrr one from last timr. TARDIS stands for Time and Relative Dimension In Space. Very wierd. even younger kids will know that! :lol: Theys hould have a party. Pyut party hats on every perosn image in the mag and instead of the monster watch (the thing where you ahve to write the page number sof the monsters) you should ahve to find hidden jammie dodgers and all of that! That would be way better! And they could ahve a joke page showing monsters and their favourite party food. :grin:

      nice. i got a paint your own daleks kit.


    • Posted by: Anonymous December 16th, 2012

      awesome. I got a paint your own daleks kit. with black, blue, red and green paint pots and a paint brush. :grin:


    • Posted by: Sonic Doctor December 16th, 2012

      ck you got some exclusive paints there. I can rememebr them doing two paint your won dalek kits over the years but they never ahd blue and green paints. :smile: I scared my dad with my davros mask and davros claws this morning. :lol: That was what I got for my mystery gifts.


  11. Posted by: The Driver December 15th, 2012 Reply

    I really want that ultimate dalek collection!


    • Posted by: Sonic Doctor December 15th, 2012

      Well just buy the mag then. :smile:


  12. Posted by: Scott the Raptor December 15th, 2012 Reply

    Anyone noticed that the bow tie that comes with the magazine is a new series 7 version?


    • Posted by: Sonic Doctor December 16th, 2012

      yeah it said last issue all new bow tie. :grin:


  13. Posted by: Cameron47 December 15th, 2012 Reply

    I’m getting the mag tomorrow. Will someone tell me what you can get for mystery gifts? It sounds exciting! In issue 296 i got a Prisoner zero monster grabber, Dalek Trainer Bag and Monster Invasion cards. so tell me, what can you get for mystery gifts in this issue?


    • Posted by: Doctor Rules December 15th, 2012

      The mystery gifts can be anything. I got a meaga mixed set which includes a slitheen whoppee cushion, cyberman yo yo, living flesh pot, 6 puffy monster stickers, colouring pencils, compass, monster puzzle cube, geronimo wristband, TARDIS keyring, mouldy green monster eyes and weeping angel shoelaces. Some people below got mixed stationary sets, deadly 60 cards, mobile phone kits, money banks and more.


    • Posted by: Cameron47 December 15th, 2012

      oh thanks. that mega mixed set that you got sounds really cool. I hiope i don’t get deadly 60 cards :roll: . But anyway, i’m buying it myself so if it has deadly 60 cards I’ll buy another one. :grin:


    • Posted by: Doctor Rules December 15th, 2012

      It is quite strange why they do deadly 60 cards. i feel sorry for the people who got them. I’ve saw a mag in tesco that ahd deadly 60 cards and a squirty sonic screwdriver. But anyway, some people are saying they got two differnet things. I thought it officilay siad mystery ‘gift’ not mystery ‘gifts’ Mine was a set so that counts as one.


    • Posted by: Sonic Doctor December 15th, 2012

      I like deadly 60 cards. For my mystery gift I got a davros mask and some davros claws. Quite cool :smile:


    • Posted by: Cameron47 December 15th, 2012

      I don’t really care if they made an error in gift and gifts. The more the merrier! :wink:


    • Posted by: Sonic Doctor December 15th, 2012

      Wiat, are you saying the more errors the merrier? that’s mad.


    • Posted by: Cameron47 December 15th, 2012

      No. I mean the more gifts the merrier! LOL. I must of pronounced it wrong. :oops:


    • Posted by: Dalek of Doom December 20th, 2012

      The mystery gifts are from gifts from previous issues of the Magazine that they never sold!


    • Posted by: Sonic Doctor December 31st, 2012

      Wahoo! No deadly 60 cards! I got a dalek disk shooter. very good! I missed the issue with that gift!


    • Posted by: Doctor Rules February 6th, 2013

      Great!

    I notice we have to wait two weeks for the next issue and it’s on a friday! Have they changed the schedule or are they having a christmas break or are they making a bumper issue?


    • Posted by: That Snowman over there December 13th, 2012

      They’ve always had a Christmas break. :)


    • Posted by: cjayp33 December 13th, 2012

      no bumper issue, it would have been this one. They are taking a christmas break of one week and because of christmas and so not to delay the schedule too much this issue is out on friday a one off.


    • Posted by: Person December 13th, 2012

      Wait, when’s the next one out?


    • Posted by: Doctor Rules December 14th, 2012

    A great issue, sahme its not a bumper christmas issue as like they have done in the past. I thought it might be this week or no next week when they took there two week brake.

    I hope because they have mentioned its the 300th issue (to which I have all of them from one onwards) for next time, that they do something to celebrate it.

    Anyone elses subscription copy stickers damaged because of the way it was delivered


  31. Posted by: doctorwhoone December 11th, 2012 Reply

    300th issue ? . . . . blimey !.

    I stopped buying once it reached 200 cos I got fed up being given a free gift that came with a previous issue or two, but I do like to take a look inside the magazine still when ever I visit WH Smith, Asda or Tesco just to see whats inside.

    Wasn’t Doctor Who Adventures out every 2 weeks originally ?. I’m sure it didn’t start coming out every single Thursday when it started with issue 1 back in 2006.


    • Posted by: trenzalore December 11th, 2012

      yes it was every 2 weeks at first


    • Posted by: The Whofan101 December 11th, 2012

      I believe it was after Issue 150 that they went weekly. It was around that time that I stopped
