    Booboo are these still on track for release next week? The one figure I want them to re release is the time crash tenth doctor, maybe next year , I believe they we’re originally gonna be released on August 6?

      hearing lots about packaging problems, they are in the stock rooms but not put out yet, etc etc but sadly I cant get any response from PR so i just don’t know

      Mick, the reliable one is on holiday so he cant help either at the moment.

    I think these sets are going to be £16.99 in price

    • booboo

      July 16th, 2018 - 6:13pm

      that’s very good if true, was expecting an increase, do you know anything on the Tardis set, that’s going to be the “one to get”?

    • Mick

      July 16th, 2018 - 8:51pm

      Will have a look on Wednesday for you. I think it’s on the system now.

    I’m really happy with set namely Bill (who they could have done with a jacket on) and the Doctor (hope they include a waistcoat this time) but personally I think they didn’t need to do Missy again, they could have done Nardole or even a monster like the Zygons or an updated Mondasian Cyberman if they wanted too.

    • The Outcast

      July 15th, 2018 - 4:04pm

      This set is a re-release set. That is, a set made of pre-existing figures with the only changes being low cost, like changing the colour pallet of the figures. Bill is a variant on the Amazon exclusive single release of Bill, which is why she is in the set. The figures you mention would all require new molds and toolings, which would have made the set financially nonviable, hence why none are in the set.

    • Koloth

      July 15th, 2018 - 10:29pm

      Not necessarily. They used Primevals Abby Maitland body and legs for Bill. They could have added Jenny’s arms and jacket but would have added extra cost for the jacket piece.

    • Will

      August 1st, 2018 - 5:03pm

      Did they ever actually release the Amazon exclusive Bill?

    • booboo

      August 1st, 2018 - 5:06pm

      no but it is happening, suspect it will just pop up as in stock any time now, like everything else at the moment request for info go answered

    Do we think these sets will get new packaging or will they just stick to the old style, which I don’t mind, I do like that style.

    • booboo

      June 15th, 2018 - 4:43pm

      gut feeling is new packaging, or logo at least

      i dont think the BBC will allow anything through from now on without the new logo (although i’m seeing plenty still to be released with the old logo)

  • Shane Cook

    These sets have just been listed on an Australian suppliers website so will be available outside of the UK

  • whovian

    June 5th, 2018 - 7:26pm

    I don’t think that the Bill body is the Abby from Primeval body as that figure had movable wrists, the Bill shown doesn’t, looks more like repainted series 2 Rose Tyler arms

    • Anonymous

      June 5th, 2018 - 8:16pm

      Rose didn’t have elbow articulation though…

    • Ginger Winger

      June 11th, 2018 - 8:11am

      It’s Astrid arms.

    • Dan

      June 13th, 2018 - 7:44pm

      It definitely is, the arms may have been changed slightly but at least the torso and legs are the same sculpt.

  • Jordie55555

    May 30th, 2018 - 1:16pm

    Wait booboo what happened to underground toys? I saw your comment and looked on their website and no dr who figures? I swear I’ve had sets from them though, like time crash and silver nemesis ?

    • booboo

      May 30th, 2018 - 1:27pm

      Character have always made the figures but the UT logo was on many that were distributed in the USA and UK

      Underground toys no longer exist, the UK division was sold to Funko and the USA division changed to seven20, all underground toys stock was sold off last year

      its yet to become clear if seven20 will have any involvement in figures, their Doctor Who portfolio is non existent at the moment

    • Jordie55555

      May 31st, 2018 - 10:54am

      So it’s doubtful we’ll see more figures apart from these b and m sets

    • booboo

      May 31st, 2018 - 11:00am

      there is no confirmed 13th Doctor 5.5″ figure – but i’m sure there will be one, other than the Amazon Bil there is no more news

      Seven20 told someone they were doing there own figures but how much truth there is in that we dont know and even if they do UK availability would be in question

  • Koloth

    May 28th, 2018 - 11:50pm

    Just found out that’s Abby Maitland’s (from Pimeval) body and leg combo!

    Bill looks good!

  • The Werewolf

    May 22nd, 2018 - 2:16am

    I was browsing over on WHONA (I don’t know why and I’m not a member) but it seems they haven’t heard of the Amazon Bill and think that the Bill head was actually created just for the B&M set, does anyone have a way of communicating with them as the Amazon Bill maybe easier for the Americans to get if they just want her.

    • booboo

      May 22nd, 2018 - 6:38am

      whona got all their figures via underground toys who longer exist, their new incarnation seven20 are not dealing with character

      I have heard the Amazon Bill will be another retailer exclusive in the USA, possibly as a twin pack, i dont know which retailer but walmart, walgreens or hot topic have multiple outlets

      it would be very helpful to Amazon if they had a picture up of their Bill with more info as there are some mixed signal at the moment

    • The Outcast

      May 22nd, 2018 - 10:32am

      Wait, the Amazon Bill might be a twin pack? Have the rumours that state this given any hints about what the other figure might be?

    • booboo

      May 22nd, 2018 - 10:49am

      only in the USA and no, but could be one of the 12th doctors the USA never got

      this is old info though so anything could have changed

  • Mick

    May 21st, 2018 - 9:11pm

    Checked on the computer today and these should be coming into our central warehouse around 6th August so then should start to be sent out to stores.

    • booboo

      May 22nd, 2018 - 6:40am

      earlier than i thought, can you keep an eye out for price details, they said the RRP’s hadn’t been set a few days ago

    • Dalek Nathaniel

      June 20th, 2018 - 9:12am

      is this the realese date for the uk as well as so excited to buy the 12th set

    • booboo

      June 20th, 2018 - 9:14am

      yes its is

  • WouldYouLikeAJellyBaby?

    The Affable Design Company have uploaded pictures of the rendering for the head sculpt of the Bill figure, the likeness is spot on. Can’t wait to get my hands on this set so we can get a Bill variant slightly earlier than the Amazon exclusive.

  • Carné van den Brink

    Hi guys,
    I live in Holland, but i love those Doctor Who sets. Do you think i can order them also later online? And ship them to Holland.

    • The Outcast

      May 19th, 2018 - 10:11am

      Well, there isn’t anywhere to order these sets as B&M don’t have an online site.

      BUT, there definitely will be people who will buy these to sell on Ebay so those of us who don’t live in the UK can get them, e.g. Holland, Australia, etc.

  • The Outcast

    May 18th, 2018 - 11:07am

    Oh dear. I’ve just noticed, the 12th Doctor looks as though he’s got the clown feet again… 🙁

    • WouldYouLikeAJellyBaby?

      May 19th, 2018 - 10:00am

      I’ve just noticed that too. It’s strange that in the original preliminary image for this set the Twelfth Doctor variant had the Series 8 short hair head sculpt and boot sculpt. I wish they’d kept the original boot sculpt because they have better proportions, I’m also hoping that the coat on the finished figure has a darker wash like in the preliminary image because that looked more accurate.

    12’s costume is more the one seen for five seconds at the end of hell bent

  • The 13th Doctor

    May 15th, 2018 - 11:58pm

    What other existing figures could be repainted like Amy, Brig, Bill etc?…
    Martha in black jacket?
    Clockwork droid repaint?

    • Dominic

      May 16th, 2018 - 5:49pm

      I think they could’ve repainted Oswin/Clara to look like she’s wearing her dress from either The Bells of St John or The Name of The Doctor, and took the belt of her.

      Martha – The Doctor’s Daughter

      Rory – The Doctor’s Wife

      11th Doctor – Blue Shirt and Red Bow Tie (Dinosaurs on a Spaceship/Angels Take Manhattan)

      10th Doctor – Blue Suit and Red Tie

      Slitheen – Blathereen

      Graske – Groske

      Amy Pond – The Hungry Earth/Cold Blood

      Rory Williams – The Hungry Earth/Cold Blood

  • whovian

    I definitely think I’ll be investing in the Missy/Bill set plus the Amy set and the Doctor and TARDIS set. I am not prepared to miss out this time. Not at all interested in the 4th Doctor set though. Will definitely attempt to make a custom Face the Raven Clara

  • The Fishmonger

    May 15th, 2018 - 5:58pm

    Does anybody know if this Bill is any different to the single figure being released by Amazon?

    • booboo

      May 15th, 2018 - 6:06pm

      yes its is, this outfit was seen for a few mins in “the pilot” the Amazon one is the more iconic one seen throughout the series

    • The Fishmonger

      Result, thanks booboo.

    I’m gobsmacked! What a surprise! No warning! This Twelfth Doctor figure set looks amazing! Not only my favourite Doctor but the lovely Bill and menacing Missy aswell! All big figs too!

    Really looking forward to this ☺️ . Really glad to see a red velvet Twelfth Doctor …although would’ve been cool to see this as the linen coat variant – could get away with not having the waistcoat and would go well with the Missy variant . Still a great set

    Shame they didn’t put Nardole in! Hope they release a figure of him!!!!

    • bobsuruncle

      May 15th, 2018 - 9:40am

      I hope they do too, but I doubt they will. A lot of people don’t seem to like Nardole, so he probably wouldn’t sell very well

    • booboo

      May 15th, 2018 - 9:52am

      someone asked him on twitter and the reply was Booooooo, so i take that to mean we wont be getting one?

    Imagine if the 1st Bill figure hadn’t been announced on Amazon yet. People would be going wild right now as it would technically be a new sculpt for these sets.

  • Sam

    May 14th, 2018 - 9:12pm

    I pray they update the Capaldi to include the waistcoat! It really takes away from the figure.

    • EndlessTimelord

      May 14th, 2018 - 10:09pm

      Same here, if this is the last Capaldi variant we’re gonna get (at least for a while) I’d love to see that waistcoat added, even if it was painted I’d be happy 🙂

      At this point I like to think this is a Hell Bent variant instead when he got his new sonic

      The brooch and shirt have been repainted to resemble the cravat she wore as part of her Series 10 costume.
