January 14th, 2019 - 11:13amReceived this Rare Dalek along with regular issues 140 Zarbi and 141 Pirate Captain. All in one box with the lid barely sealed shut/bulging. The Zarbi was bigger than I’d expected – which meant it’s packaging was as well.
The figures were all ok but the magazines were, let’s just say, a little bit distressed? Anyone know how to get creases out of a magazine without leaving a trace? No, no-one? Thought not. If they were only curved a little bit then they could probably be flattened out, but folding the edges down so they fit in a box that’s too small doesn’t impress. Although it does demonstrate some skill in being able to apply origami to the magazines that are now being sent out along with the figures all in their own plastic bags – identical to the retail versions.
I know some people are only concerned about the figures themselves, everything else is secondary/something to store away or get rid of.
If I’m paying for a collectible item then I’d hope that the company that’s producing them would understand that the magazine as well as the figure, hell, even the packaging the figure comes in, are all part of the same package.
Famous example – early Star Wars figure – a few tens/hundreds of quid – figure in it’s original packaging – few hundred/few thousand – early figure and packaging that hasn’t been creased, dented, scuffed, folded in half, kicked up and down a halway… few thousand.
Waiting for Eaglemoss to get back to me. Deliveries have been far too hit-and-miss recently.
Whinge over – on the plus side the number of obscure figures (and the quality) are all getting better and better.

Agree about the painting though. Some figures paintwork just does not match the sculpting.
Sorely tempted to do some repainting myself – but don’t think I have enough skill to do the job to the standard the figures deserve.

Wonder if Eaglemoss have ever thought of sending out unpainted sculpts (along with a painting guide). They’d need to put ‘ltd edtn’ or some other marking embossed into the piece to distinguish it from the fortnightly or special editions though?
or a black/white wash over it – creating a brand new range of greyscale variations to go with the main series, special edition, Rare Daleks, twin packs, boxed sets, Mega sized …

January 12th, 2019 - 9:11amLovely sculpt, terrible paint job – which seems to be a common fault with all of the rare Daleks — the Dalek Saucer Commander being the very worst of the lot. Very disappointing because, as I say, the model itself is great.
It’s a shame, especially when comparing them with, say, the Wirrn or the Daemon special, which are just beautiful.

The 14th doctor
January 5th, 2019 - 9:54pm12 and bill I think?
The Werewolf
January 5th, 2019 - 10:56pmI think it’s Captain Jack and the Ninth Doctor next.
Arthur
January 6th, 2019 - 12:15amInteresting to pair 12 with bill. Would have thought they would have gone for Clara, but the more companions the better!
The 14th doctor
January 6th, 2019 - 1:19pm3rd doctor and Liz or 4th doctor and romana are the ones I would like to see next.

January 5th, 2019 - 3:52pmLooks nice, I’ll hopefully find it for a reasonable price on eBay at some point. 🙂

January 5th, 2019 - 11:38amSD13? That’s the number on the box for last one – ‘Imperial Dalek with sonic probe’…

January 5th, 2019 - 12:51pmYeah, I am now very confused by Eaglemoss’ inability to count. I have two 13s I also seem to be missing a 9. Gas anyone out together a list if the Rare Daleks listing name, box number and mag number?
booboo
January 5th, 2019 - 1:18pmthey went out a sequence when they jumped from 4-6 and missed out 5 on the boxes so there were then 2 sixes, there was never a 9 on the box, this has been a problem for ages though and they have only just corrected it by doing 2 13’s

January 5th, 2019 - 3:04pmAh, brilliant- thank you!

January 6th, 2019 - 9:46amThere’s a reason why it says 13: someone forgot that it was the 14th gift to premium subscribers (13 figurines and 1 plinth).

January 11th, 2019 - 11:16pmLooks like we may need another gold Dalek plinth pretty soon!

January 4th, 2019 - 8:35pmI didn’t get my Rare Dalek in my shipment.

January 5th, 2019 - 5:21pmEmail them. They missed Rare Dalek 7 for me back in September 2016. I did get the magazine though.
It is on back order but I am still waiting for them to make me another one. 2 1/2 years and counting.

January 5th, 2019 - 8:39pmIt’s okay now. It came as a separate delivery today with my replacement Minotaur and Subscriber Dalek Binder.

January 4th, 2019 - 4:50pmIt’s also more detailed than the first Death to the Dalek figurine especially around the mid section.

January 4th, 2019 - 2:57pmGod dammit, it’s a RARE dalek, that is going to be outside my reach, shame it’s a nice colour scheme. To rub salt into the wound, it looks to have been sculpted around the genesis dalek body which means it’s just a repaint, with the oval attached between the arms.
Anonymous
January 5th, 2019 - 12:34amYou are aware that literally any small change is going to demand a totally new sculpt? It’s not “just a repaint” if they’ve added the oval.
Neil
January 6th, 2019 - 9:47amI can promise it’s not a repaint.

January 4th, 2019 - 2:44pmLove this colour scheme, it looks great!
