Radburn
September 9th, 2013 - 2:35pmJust got an email back from TOPPS UK telling me that the Costume Cards are Limited to 1 in 75 Packets – So not even a Costume Card per box percentage wise…
lewis chawner

August 21st, 2013 - 12:43pmJust seen a pic of these from the who Blackpool website, there is only 2 cards in the pic but they look great
Radburn
August 22nd, 2013 - 4:53amYes, looking at the advertising sheet; it show’s an 11th. Doctor Costume Card & a common card of the 1st. Doctor. Seem’s they are releasing another Starter Pack for this set of 152 cards on 17th. October? I’m a bit confused about the ‘Updated Collector’s Edition’ blurb but don’t know if this is a follow-up set or continuation from the previous release? Again, still no idea of the percentages per box – Especially as it is now £50 a box?
lewis chawner
October 18th, 2013 - 9:44pmtheyare not £50 i asked they are still £24 a box
Braddy
August 19th, 2013 - 4:59pmEach case of 50 packs is going for £50. Does anybody have any idea of the ratio of how many costume cards per case or cases??
Anonymous
August 19th, 2013 - 6:06pmA case is not 50 that will be a box a case is a box of boxes
Braddy
August 19th, 2013 - 7:23pmSlight mistake, back to the question I’ve asked, any ideas ?
booboo
August 19th, 2013 - 7:28pmi dont know anything about these cards sorry, topps completely ignore us so i’m not even going to bother to try to find out anything form them will have to wait until more info turns up on-line
Radburn
August 22nd, 2013 - 4:59amEven if it is just 1 costume card per box you would have to spend a minimum of £350 to get the 7 costume cards. Of course you may only get 3 & then two lots of repeats which would be awful! I think this is going to be too expensive for most people – Especially to guarantee a full set of 152 cards…
the doctor
October 15th, 2013 - 4:51pmFor the costume cards it is limited to 1 in every 75 packs! 🙁
Anonymous
August 16th, 2013 - 8:23amSecond to that spoke to a lot of people at card fair yesterday and high end collectors are actually going to get this one and a lot are our customers so expect newsagents to sell out quick.
Anonymous
August 16th, 2013 - 8:20amThe prices could also vary if swatch contains a button or button hole they can go for upwards of hundred. If for instance iT’s a tie there will be no more than 150 of that variant. But I have seen all this before with csi and 007 farscape and mostly any card.
the eternal doctor
August 14th, 2013 - 9:53pmI usually collect them so will collect these cant wait to start collecting
The Monitor
August 13th, 2013 - 9:55pmTopps would have had to have bought garments from 7 of the Doctors; the other Doctors would have been too expensive or unavailable.
Garments worn by Doctors fetch many thousands of pounds which starts to elevate the cost of production.
Costume cards have been around for years; Strictly Ink did various costume cards such as Vogon costume or Androzani Guard.
It is both very special, and a bit of a shame that parts of the Doctor’s costume will be available, but it is a way for many of us to own a bit of history.
Radburn
August 13th, 2013 - 11:33pmIt will probably be for serious collector’s only.
The price of the packs is bound to go up for authentic costumes & will also depend on the ratios per card per box. I think to gain a complete set will be out of reach for many of the people who visit this site. Old Dr Who costume cards vary between £18-£30 each so a new set of these will go for silly prices individually. If they produce about 4,000 cards from limited clothing a full set is improbable for most people…
Dave
August 14th, 2013 - 2:09pmThey wont be part of the base set there will just be like in like 1000 packs
Radburn
August 14th, 2013 - 2:54pmI’ll wait until I see the percentages but will probably give this one a miss – It will be far to expensive to attempt to get a complete set…
11matt
August 13th, 2013 - 5:53pmI really want to see what a costume card looks like, i would love a 10th doctor one
Radburn
August 13th, 2013 - 9:06pmDo a search on ebay: Plenty of them on there – You may even find some of the older Costume cards from Doctor Who…
Dave
August 13th, 2013 - 11:29pmwhat did you type in to find them cus i cant see owt
Radburn
August 13th, 2013 - 11:45pmDoctor Who Costume Cards
There are about 30 listed from 2 or 3 sets…

August 14th, 2013 - 10:22amyeah i searched dr who costume cards on ebay and came up with cards old but they had benton and 5th doctor ones
now i wish i wasnt here
August 14th, 2013 - 7:21pmthey also had brian blessed underwear
Anonymous
August 15th, 2013 - 9:44pmThe blessed underwear is fake.
40th anniversary
Benton not rare
Fifth doctor space costume rare pay 15/20
Androzani soldier two variant. Black not as rare as red
Cdv
Androzani silver not very rare
Jamie’s costume very rare 20/30
Benton common again
Vogan two variants tarnish
And a blueprint floor plan I have jnt auto in one. We sell email so this set we will buy five cases of boxes and price cards from there expect extreme prices
Radburn
August 17th, 2013 - 8:26am‘Expect extreme prices’ does not inspire any confidence in this set…
Trenzalore
August 13th, 2013 - 5:16pmDoes it mean ‘7 Doctors costumes’ as in the seventh doctor’s costume or seven pieces of different doctor’s costumes? If you get what I mean.
Radburn
August 13th, 2013 - 5:50pm7 different Doctor’s items of clothing. That is probably why the other’s are not available – They have had to buy 7 authentic clothing items & that is pretty hard to do. Especially considering what actual price’s real costume pieces or props go for now…
Trenzalore
August 13th, 2013 - 6:01pmThanks, gonna really have to look after it if I get one, wonder which 7 they will choose
Radburn
August 22nd, 2013 - 5:26amIt’s starting to sound like it is only going to be 1 or 2 Doctor’s costume cards (One of which is the 11th.) the other 5 costume cards may only be from other character’s featured in the show?
Radburn
August 13th, 2013 - 5:02pmCostume cards are fine – But it depends on the Rarity? If you have a shirt worn by Jon Pertwee & they make only 500 cards then say a tie worn by David Tennant that make’s only 250 cards how many will be released per box? If it is 1 costume card every 3 boxes it will make it very hard to get a complete set…
Tardis’nt
August 13th, 2013 - 1:19pmDoes this mean they have cut up some of the 7th doctor’s costume?
the eternal doctor
August 14th, 2013 - 9:52pmo thought it just ment peace’s of the costume
now i wish i wasnt here
August 13th, 2013 - 1:11pmtee hee hee
Trenzalore
August 13th, 2013 - 12:49pmWhat does I mean by ‘actual pieces of 7 Doctors costumes’ have they cut pieces out and stuck them to cards? 😆 Bit weird is that! Also it says 7 doctors, plural. Why only 7 of the doctor’s costumes, what about the other 4? Other than that these sound really good, I only needed 18 more cards to complete my other collection of these 🙁
Anonymous
August 13th, 2013 - 3:25pmYeah there fantastic and should be worth getting
Radburn
August 13th, 2013 - 5:11pmThey are actually called ‘Costume Cards’ or more commonally Swatch Cards & will be Chase cards in the set. They are 2 pieces of card stuck together (Making them thicker than a normal card) & sandwiched between them is a small piece (Swatch) of an original costume worn by the actor. The front of the card will have an open panel with the costume piece displayed.
The Supreme Dalek
August 13th, 2013 - 11:24amYAY! I loved these cards, finished all the commons but still need Mirror and Rainbow Foils! 😀
the doctor
October 15th, 2013 - 4:55pmSame. I have all commons and only need 2 rainbow foils and 8 mirror foil.
