August 17th, 2022 - 1:13pmOut of curiosity, I know it’s a bit early to be asking this, but when can we might expect the second wave of this year’s B&M figures to be announced? November maybe?

August 18th, 2022 - 10:06amProbably around October

August 15th, 2022 - 4:53pmI’ve ordered myself a couple of 5″ Scale 9th/10th Dr Sonic screwdriver accessories off Ebay. We just dont seem to be getting the sonics as accessories anymore and I think the Doctors, especially tennant, look rather bare without one in hand. What with the new 3pack not having any I’ve prepared myself in advance.
I was hoping characters website might still have some in their spares and repairs section but looks like they’ve all gone.

August 15th, 2022 - 4:40pmCan someone help me out with the big finish torchwoods.
There’s a monthly range
The series 5 and 6 i think?
Then there’s torchwood soho does that link into the monthly range?
And then dies torchwood one link into the torchwood series 5 and 6 with Yvonne Hartman? I’m so confused
And is there anything else other than that?
BigBen64
August 16th, 2022 - 2:52pmThe Monthly Range takes place at various points in the Torchwood timeline.
“Alien Among Us” (Series 5) and “God Among Us” (Series 6) are official continuations of the Torchwood TV series with new Torchwood members.
Torchwood One is set before “Army of Ghosts”, with Yvonne and Ianto.
The Yvonne from series 5/6 is from a parallel universe where she didn’t get turned into a cyberman.
Torchwood Soho is 1950s Torchwood (with several related releases in the monthly range).
And then there are some special releases from different points in the Torchwood timeline…
Doctor Stu
August 17th, 2022 - 12:08amThanks for this, I’m sure the new guy from torchwood soho or whatever release is with Andy and this new guy, turns up in series 5 or 6 of post miracle day torchwood. So is there anything I need to to listen to first? Norton something?
I also know Andy turns up in stranded as well buts a whole different can of worms to get my head round so I’m deleting that from my brain for now until I start to tackle the eighth Doctor saga
And there’s a committee arc that goes through monthly range series 1 and 2 and ends in the torchwood archive if I’m correct?

August 14th, 2022 - 11:04amTomorrow the Character toys website goes back live. Do you think it will bring with it a new online exclusive?
booboo
August 14th, 2022 - 11:52amnot heard anything, will be interest to see what took 2 weeks
booboo
August 15th, 2022 - 9:47amit doesn’t look any different to me
Judooning
August 14th, 2022 - 3:59pmMaybe a brand new style to the website. It has been pretty similar for as long as I can remember
Anonymous
August 15th, 2022 - 1:15pmFrom looking at it today it looks EXACTLY the same as before… not sure why it was down for so long?? nice to see that the Warriors of the Deep set is still sticking around for sale 🙂
the Ergon
August 13th, 2022 - 6:40pmJust been reading that Issues 216-223 had made it into mass production. God only knows where all that stock will end up then if it is eventually sold off.
Adrian Taylor
August 13th, 2022 - 1:52pmWhat happens if you’ve paid for an order and not received it?? £65.00 for an eagle one from space 1999 ordered at the beginning of may.
booboo
August 13th, 2022 - 2:01pmgo to whoever you paid by, bank, paypal, credit card and ask for a chargeback (or open a case if paypal), its less than 180 so you should have no issues getting your money back.

August 12th, 2022 - 1:55pmI bought the Cyber King model and if arrived broken how do I get it replaced?
booboo
August 12th, 2022 - 2:02pmdepends where you bought it from
booboo
August 12th, 2022 - 12:26pmI see Actions Figure Theatre is closing due to costs http://www.aftdownloads.co.uk/
So if you want anything i would download it now
pupbenny
August 12th, 2022 - 1:40pmOh wow really!?!? Jeeze, that is really sad. Just looking at it’s homepage takes me back to my youth. I might download everything (at least in the 5″ range) just so it still exists and isn’t lost forever.
Mrs Croot
August 13th, 2022 - 5:31pmIs that a micro collection dalek sec? Quite clever 🙂
booboo
August 13th, 2022 - 5:35pmyes lost count how many of those i have got
BigBen64
August 11th, 2022 - 3:31pmErm, was there some sort of legal issue with Robert Banks Stewart creations? I’m only asking because all the Big Finish audios featuring Robert Banks Stewart creations (Zygons, Krynoids and that Fourth Doctor lost stories set) are unable to buy…
booboo
August 10th, 2022 - 5:15pmCould do with the next collection set being announced right now….

Type 40
August 11th, 2022 - 2:29pmIndeed. I’d even settle for an announcement about a Season 8 Standard release. Anything!
The ergon
August 11th, 2022 - 2:49pmI,m sure we,ll get the season 8 just before the next big collection announcement.
daz
August 11th, 2022 - 7:16pmMust be due soon. Weird not having anything pre-ordered for Doctor Who though.
I’m still hoping that Series 9 and 10 will get the steelbook treatment in style of 1-8 eventually.

August 11th, 2022 - 7:56pmIf Season 2 isn’t announced in the next week, I’ll eat my fez…
Gordon
August 11th, 2022 - 9:50pmI take it booboo hasn’t received any press releases for the next set then. I’m sure they will announce it when the time is right. They definitely got stuff in the works as they were filming season 20 stuff at the weekend but that probably wont be out till next year
booboo
August 11th, 2022 - 10:04pmThey (BBC) seem to have stopped it, in the past we had embargoed stuff from them a few days before, that’s not been the case recently (not just us, everyone i think within reason).
BBC Studios seem to want to announce everything themselves first now.
Gordon
August 11th, 2022 - 11:13pmProbably fed up with all the leaks
booboo
August 11th, 2022 - 11:18pmi dont think the people on “the list” would ever leak stuff, i dont recall any images or info getting leaked?, beside we still get “other” embargoed stuff.
Gordon
August 12th, 2022 - 2:46amI was thinking more of the early listings on Swiss dvd sites
booboo
August 12th, 2022 - 7:33amI see, a bit hard on those who behaved though, hoping for next week, thought it might be this week.
Coleman
August 10th, 2022 - 11:25amBooboo, Can you put down a list of all the CO sets to be released this year. (Including the ones just shown). To give me an idea of what to Budget for.

1st Doctor Electronic Tardis set
Dalek Packs (Presumably History of the Daleks Sets)

+ Possibly another CO online exclusive.
pupbenny
August 10th, 2022 - 12:45pmOut of curiosity, when you say ‘+ Possibly another CO online exclusive.’ is that just an assumption or is there something that’s directly suggested that?
booboo
August 10th, 2022 - 12:50pmPress release for the Silurian set:
Character Options announces its first online exclusive Doctor Who collector set of 2022
suggesting there will be more than one (i thinks its more or less been confirmed on the alerwebb )
Coleman
August 10th, 2022 - 12:51pmThanks Booboo, I remember seeing them all listed ages ago but I couldn’t remember half of them, (I should have written them down)
booboo
August 10th, 2022 - 12:54pmI have seen the Tardis might be £24.99 now suggesting it is no longer electronic, can’t confirm that though.
There seems to be some last minuet changes to these sets.
TheFineLens
August 9th, 2022 - 6:21pmHas anyone been following the Cybus Industries thing? Because they appear to be selling an exclusive Character Options figure set now https://cybusindustries.org/figures/
Dannyd
August 9th, 2022 - 7:03pmThe site doesn’t let you buy them… wonder if they are actually real or if it’s just a “fake” listing… the set does have Character’s gold “Limited Edition” sticker… but £65 for 3 Cybermen!!

August 11th, 2022 - 1:19pmIt could be the next CO Online Exclusive, as a tie-in to what is obviously a Marketing Campaign?
ThePrimordInfectant
August 9th, 2022 - 12:19pmTwo hour till the reveal. SUPER EXCITED
Doctor Stu
August 9th, 2022 - 6:39pmThis hasn’t aged well
Doctor Stu
August 9th, 2022 - 11:22amWasn’t there supposed to be some announcement at 10am or was that just nonsense?
booboo
August 9th, 2022 - 11:24amIts around 2pm now assuming the images arrive in time
The ergon
August 9th, 2022 - 11:30amWill the images appear here or by some unorthodox route?
booboo
August 9th, 2022 - 11:41amhere, as soon as i can get them on, you may see them elsewhere first though.
its easy for forums and social media as they are user led and any number of people can just upload.
websites like this have to resize images, write the article and then post it (and be sat by a computer to do it), that all takes time.
