Doctor Who – Monster Invasion Magazine update - 56 Comments

    I really can’t wait until it comes out. On holiday i went in WHSMITH and saw a pack of cards. If it’s eneded in the test area it should of come out sooner, on the website is say shows 6 issues, but there back issues. I’m going to get it as soon as it comes out, but may only get first issue to see what it’s like. People are saying it’s like battles in time.

    Thanks DW Mania 321,but my mum says I can’t have them until April,but they are never out anywhere where I go so I can never get them and that really annoys me,then when my mum finds out that there isn’t any anywhere she’ll say go on the internet and that will add up to goodness knows what,has anyone got any ideas?

    @ Callum Metcalfe

    on http://www.doctorwhomi.com and click on shop then back issues if that helps

  • Posted by james.d on August 25th, 2010

    1 of the test areas is Devon because Ive got some from there when i went on holiday

  • Posted by Callum Metcalfe on August 25th, 2010

    Whenever there is a card magazine around,I always look in WHsmith,ASDA,Morrisons and corner shops but can never find the mag.This disappoints me because when I go to look on the internet for them there is loads already out meaning I can’t buy them all.Can anyone help me?

    you can only get the sound lid if you subscribe

    yes but the whole thing is on hold till April 2011 so i understand so things may change when it goes national, i was never sent anything past issue 6 (and i was so looking forward to the squirty screwdriver)

  • Posted by doctor who mania 321 on August 20th, 2010

  • Posted by geronimo on August 20th, 2010

    the rarest card is in 1 of 1000 packs!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m not allowed to collect them :evil:

  • Posted by JD on August 15th, 2010

    I subscribed to these and ive got upto issue 7 i think :) they are amazing

  • Posted by sontar-ha on August 6th, 2010

    Got everything every released. I subscribed for DOCTOR WHO ADVENTURES
    so Ill buy Monster Invasion. Better than Battles in time and Alien Armies
    A Bit Pricy though :evil:

  • Posted by adeface on July 30th, 2010

    i’ve orderd 3 packets of cards on tuesday the 27 and they haven’t arrived yet how long do they take to deliver

  • Posted by cjayp33 on July 20th, 2010

    I totally disagree this is not worth your money or collecting, unless you missed out on Battles in Time, in which case, it might be worth it, otherwise stay clear, It is aimed at kids and the information is so bare and basic.

  • Posted by starwho2 on July 19th, 2010

    Hi I live in the south west and was lucky enought to get all 6 issues of this mag and with only 16 cards missing out of the 90 cards avalible i enjoyed reading it and when it is released next year I will continue to get it. A brilliant part work and I so hope they release more cards for it. :cool:

  • Posted by the doctor on July 19th, 2010

    You can still buy the issues online at dr who monster invasion shop.But it wont officially be out until April 2011 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Posted by Sam on July 18th, 2010

    @sean The Monster Invasion magazine is made by BBC magazines. Battles In Time was by GE Barrie.

  • Posted by Callum Metcalfe on July 18th, 2010

    We have to wait that long! OMG!

  • Posted by Sean on July 18th, 2010

    This is a little strange, why create another card collection when they already had a successful one. Most of the cards will probably be the same with an updated layout. Call me a cynic but I feel it’s trying to get money from us loyal fans. Even the magazine has the same features such as alien slamdown, episode guide and puzzles. Is it made the same people who made Battles in Time?

  • Posted by The Master on July 18th, 2010

    I live in the southwest so i already have issues 1, 2, 3, and 6. I also have some cards.

  • Posted by booboo on July 17th, 2010

  • Posted by Anonymous on June 8th, 2010

    where do you buy it

  • Posted by booboo on June 8th, 2010

    According to the info i have here you should get the sound lid with part 3 even in the shops ?

  • Posted by Morrell on June 8th, 2010

    It is not clear that you do not get the same gifts you dont subscribe although paying same price. Dont get flashing sound lid or sonic screwdiriver try explaining why to children when they had tardis the same in week before? Customer services kept me on hold over 3 mins though I was no 1 in queque and had no interest in my complaint, very disappointed as otherwise is a good magazine.

  • Posted by Dave Harrington on June 4th, 2010

    I emailed then and they said that there has been no confimation of the general release date. However when I asked then if they will be doing more than 90 cards for the general release they didnt answer

  • Posted by DalekBlade on April 16th, 2010

    I do not if it really in the south west cause I have not been to the shops in days

  • Posted by Daniel on April 16th, 2010

    I never got chance to collect battles in time so will be glad if some to my area

  • Posted by simon on April 16th, 2010

    I’v just picked up the first issue looks good a little like battles in time and a little like alien armies but i’ll cellect it

  • Posted by booboo on April 16th, 2010

    It looks quite good from what i have seen, there is probably a whole new set of fans that didn’t collect battles in time so this seems a good time to do this.

  • Posted by Kane on April 16th, 2010

    its basically the same as Battles in Time :)

  • Posted by Kane on April 16th, 2010

    Ive already got it i live in the South West of England

  • Posted by booboo on April 16th, 2010

    Its only availabe in a test area ( southwestish i think ). it will probably be several weeks before it goes national sale

  • Posted by docandk9 on April 16th, 2010

    When is this out officially in the UK?
