April 22nd, 2017 - 12:12pmquestion for booboo why is this figure exclusive to America?
booboo
April 22nd, 2017 - 1:32pmProbably because no one in the UK ordered it or were offered it
UK Collector
October 28th, 2016 - 5:34pmI so, so wish this would come out here in the UK :’-( Also the WhoNA Rory variant and the Holo-10nth (banded) variant! Keep hoping one of the FPs or SciFi-Collector will get them… Surprised T’rU didn’t get this one as they usually like stocking Daleks!

September 23rd, 2016 - 12:00amIt’s really irritating that the updated Dalek Sec mold never got a UK release.

May 9th, 2016 - 9:00pmBooboo, I know this is the wrong post, but I don’t know where else to ask. What ever happened to that vote where people voted for Tegan, Jamie etc. Do we know what figure won and is getting made?
booboo
May 9th, 2016 - 9:06pmit was only an idea and never went any further.
Jamie would have won anyway
Mechanoid Fan
May 9th, 2016 - 9:20pmGood point. Did you see Frazer Hines’ Facebook post? That’s what got me thinking, looks awfully like a 5″ Jamie 🙂
booboo
May 9th, 2016 - 9:26pmnot sure, could be a hint

May 9th, 2016 - 9:40pmCan’t upload a photo for you. But looks really good! It’s in a plain packaging 🙂

May 9th, 2016 - 10:04pmUnfortunately I think it is a custom, perhaps a gift from a fan, given that the neck tie looks like it is made from a piece of ribbon, presumably it is in the photo to show the size of the award he was given which does fit with the caption of the post, that being said it would be a shame if im right because Jamie is number 2 on my 5″ wishlist (after Romana 2)

May 9th, 2016 - 10:19pmIt looks to have a ribbon scarf, auton arms, sculpted hair and Jack head

March 31st, 2016 - 6:45pmWould love this but won’t be able to get it in the UK

Doctor Who Crazy Ross
March 29th, 2016 - 10:38amI’m not going to lie, after seeing the stealth Cyberman and sith doctor being mentioned, I miss the classic figures. They were so good in their prime and memories of 2011 came flooding back when my local forbidden planet used the biggest display section for Doctor Who and had all sorts of classic figures as well as modern figures. The 2 for £15 deal that they had with the figures, meaning I could buy a classic ice warrior and a sea devil if I wanted to. Actually, that was around the time I got the stealth Cyberman and sixth doctor.
I just miss hearing news of new figures. It all sort of went down hill with all of the Leela rereleases and then the brig/Jo figures. I just wish they could have done a second series of collect and build figures where they could have covered a wider range of characters in one go. I remember the 2008/2009 period where wherever you went there was the series 4 collect and build, classic collect and build and the Cyberman collect and build and there was no escaping the fact that Doctor Who was a great show with lots of merchandise to show for it. But now it sort of feels like the opposite. There are hardly no new figures (I know why, but its still sad) and they were sort of killed off for me when they reduced the size. I cant tell whether I’m just being nostalgic or whether I’m making perfect sense. I miss the old days.

March 24th, 2016 - 11:48amBooBoo, have you and Luke ever thought about the doctor who site becoming an exclusive figure retailer in the uk?
We could maybe crowd fund a couple of exclusive figures to get them produced, then offer them in the same way character options did with the Missy figures.
Just an idea.
booboo
March 24th, 2016 - 11:59amI wouldn’t know where to start but you would be surprised how complicate the approvals and rights processes can be its a minefield.
I dont know if Character would go for such a thing
Didn’t Frazer Hines want to do something like this
Exterminator
March 24th, 2016 - 1:38pmI would suppose the first people to speak to is character options, they already have the licenses to produce the figures, they only reason they seem to have slowed to a halt is that retailers aren’t as interested as they once were.
All you’d be doing is becoming a distributer of a couple of ‘limited edition online only exclusives.’
We could crowd fund any costs with presales, as I’m sure there’d be loads of interest.
I wonder how the scificollector site managed to get their die cast Daleks, Cyberman and Tardis exclusives? This site would be doing something similar.
booboo
March 24th, 2016 - 2:05pmCharacter /scifi already have facilities to do that so its big job to set that up
scifi collector for example already had a wholesale website / warehouse and an already established distribution / retailer network
you are probably going to need a minimum of 4000 figures to make this work so you need to store / insure / pack and post that many figures.
On top of that you would need to be prepared and allow for lost in post, damaged and faulty / not wanted returns.
I would be more that happy to promote it but would never want to take on such responsibility
If any one ever does it though some tips
Sell on your own dedicated site, and Amazon
Do a big push to start with
Do a second big push when the stock arrives
Run a very well kept up social media campaign with competitions etc -get people talking and sharing
keep people informed to keep up the interest
Exterminator
March 24th, 2016 - 2:13pmIt’s a shame because you already have a fantastic brand name with the doctor who site. But, as you say it’d be a huge amount of work.
An idea for somebody though? Underground toys and forbidden planet must’ve started small.
BrunoB
March 25th, 2016 - 7:20amIt’s really a huge investment for a new figure though. We’re talking¨£40,000 at least, if not £50,000. The only way to fund that is through crownfunding to be honest.
Exterminator
March 25th, 2016 - 9:12amTrue it is a big investment, but just imagine the possibilities.
Limited edition run of 2500 sets only of say a twin pack of Kate Stewart and Osgood for example selling for £30 each, that’s £75,000.
Or how about a Hell Bent 12th doctor inside the classic Tardis set with classic console? Limited edition, I’m sure it would sell like hot cakes!
I just think if we want to keep the line running, a few limited edition online only exclusives is an option.
booboo
March 25th, 2016 - 9:32amthe only way to find out is see exactly what costs are involved and if Character would even do it as they have the licence
here is one of the problems involved though is that everyone would want their “cut” adding greatly to the cost
Dalek The Supreme
March 24th, 2016 - 5:32amLooking forward to this, if I don’t end up getting it from the Doomsday set. I hope the bronze variant is eventually released, because that’s really hard to find here in the states.
Cyberman Bill
March 24th, 2016 - 1:21amI wonder why shipping is so much to the UK?? 35£’s seems quite excessive. I send many things to my friends in England including figures and it’s not that much. I wish I could help everyone that wants one to get one.
Cyberman Bill
March 24th, 2016 - 5:17amMaybe a bunch of you could get together and buy them, that way you can all split the shipping and it would be more reasonable. Just a thought!
booboo
March 24th, 2016 - 7:03amproblem is if you start buying multiples you risk import duties and costs which would make it very expensive
booboo
March 24th, 2016 - 7:14amthey don’t offer an economy rate just a tracked service
whona are very good and i have got a lot form them in the past you just have to weigh up the costs
they have many items people in they UK might want.
Anonymous
March 24th, 2016 - 11:00amCyberman Bill if you can get one for me I’ll happily Paypal the Figure price & postage to you. (It’s Dave here!) Whona ARE very good but the £35 Postage is the killer. With a lot of items in the US under the £15 Customs Limit that’s brilliant, but when you then find out the Postage price that doesn’t make it at all tenable.
Cyberman Bill
March 25th, 2016 - 12:08am@ Dave…. Sure, Email me and we’ll talk about it. I hate that fellow Whovians, especially in the country where it started can’t get something for a reasonable cost.

Alexander Oswald
March 23rd, 2016 - 11:47pmDo they forget that Doctor Who is a British show so we should be allowed to have the Merchendise not USA first
booboo
March 24th, 2016 - 7:41amit could be just UK retailers saying no to it
whotoys
March 27th, 2016 - 10:26amCompletely agree with you
MickeySmith07
March 23rd, 2016 - 10:20pmWith this, i wonder if we will see this at some point in a B&M pack. Its happenend with most of the american releases. Only one im waiting on is the american holographic doctor
cman1O1dalek
March 23rd, 2016 - 9:18pmthis may not be subject but note to site staff the Dalek color maker thing it needs more features like the dalek gadgets and sort of make it a Dalek maker.
GallifreyanKnight
March 23rd, 2016 - 9:04pmI’d get this if I hadn’t customised and improved the older version.
(His head wouldn’t spin all the way round. Fixed that. Also swapped out the plunger, gun and eye for some spares I had laying around.)
LastOfTheSonics
March 23rd, 2016 - 6:16pmUS Only? Ok, goodbye to my life.
booboo
March 23rd, 2016 - 6:22pmi would be interested to know if someone as in an individual could take on a couple of hundred of these for the UK market, not sure what exactly is stopping these getting to the UK and they only seem to be in one place in the USA anyway
Love to know the background as to what’s going on with these
Anonymous
March 23rd, 2016 - 10:53pmMaybe they don’t think there is a market for these in the UK? I know of a previous Character Building set that was all marked up for the UK market, but was then cancelled & the shipment was sold to Australia instead.
booboo
March 24th, 2016 - 7:04amwhich set was that? The 5 card backed Daleks?
Anonymous
March 24th, 2016 - 10:54amYep, that was the one. Exported from the UK, then I had to Import it back to the UK for myself. Bizarre?
booboo
March 24th, 2016 - 11:26amone UK seller on ebay had a few at one time
The same seller bought a job lot of items from Character which included many rare items (like 10x UK100 time crash sets) and some stuff that had never been released!
Anonymous
March 24th, 2016 - 10:44pmSomewhere in a warehouse, currently stacked on an old dusty shelf. Something is waiting to be found again, maybe a full carton or a full case? It surprise’s me when a pile of stuff suddenly appears from nowhere?
Anonymous
May 2nd, 2016 - 10:06amI found the original release of Sec on Ebay for £9.50. I decided to purchase it. It’s not like we’re ever going to get the Collector Series Sec in the UK.
Stike
March 23rd, 2016 - 4:26pmI really fancy a new sec, I have not purchased one since 2006. At last I can get a much more accurate sec and in the beautiful packaging and… Oh wait, US only. DAMMINT UNDERGROUND TOYS!
7thwhovlogs
March 23rd, 2016 - 4:21pmThis just makes me angry, angry and disgusted, how we in the UK have to pay through our noses to get one
Ian
March 23rd, 2016 - 4:03pmCharacter say these are not coming to the UK unfortunately.
booboo
March 23rd, 2016 - 4:52pmdoesn’t surprise me although really not sure toys r us should be effectively advertising something you cant buy
Ian
March 24th, 2016 - 10:46amI didn’t know TRU were advertising this.
This is what CO told me.
I can confirm that the Black Dalek Sec is an old version (2015) and was shipped to Walgreens USA last year as part of a range.
Unfortunately, there are no plans for this in the UK.
booboo
March 24th, 2016 - 11:33amnot as such but they are on the back of packaging of Rose/k9, 11th Cowboy they have saying “also available ” when you cant buy them and they are toys r us exclusives after all
old version? Walgreens? 2015? no one ever said they had bought one from there that i saw and it was never on their website (not that they put anything on anyway)
none ever appeared on ebay or Amazon, how strange
Ian
March 24th, 2016 - 12:03pmForbidden Planet International now have Rose & K9 as well as 11th Doctor in Purple.
booboo
March 24th, 2016 - 12:16pmyes no cowboy hat though, not really an exclusive exclusive
Ian
March 24th, 2016 - 4:34pmI asked CO about why is the Black Dalek sec advertised on the back on the packaging.:
The reason is because the USA got the full range (assortment) and TRU who ran it in the UK only chose key items they wanted so the packaging showed the full USA range.
booboo
March 24th, 2016 - 4:57pmmaybe they should have said this on another black sticker!
Mickeysmith07
March 23rd, 2016 - 10:39amHow much is this including postage to the uk please?
booboo
March 23rd, 2016 - 10:50amdont think they have any left
postage is expensive, kills it really there are quite a few things people would get otherwise I think
Anonymous
March 23rd, 2016 - 4:27pmIt’s about £35 Postage plus the £12 or so for the figure. Unfortunately the Postage ruin’s the price for an individual figure sadly!
DOCTORWHOFAN1
March 22nd, 2016 - 9:37pmI hope this is the start of a new figure wave like when Sarah Jane figure was announced for us soon a lot of figures were announced for here in the UK.
T4RD1S
March 22nd, 2016 - 9:29pmIs this the original or the new sculpt? (I’m talking about the sculpt of the figure)

March 22nd, 2016 - 9:27pmHi,

March 22nd, 2016 - 8:29pmAre these coming to the uk?
booboo
March 22nd, 2016 - 8:32pmno idea, there are on the back of the ones being sold at toys r us but I doubt that means a thing
Toys r us should know, drop them a line be interesting to know what they say
