Bakerloo Line
December 2nd, 2020 - 5:18pmI’ve just been to the Home Store in Leicester and they have plenty of the Witches Familiar set in stock but no sign of the Coal Hill set
Doctorus
December 2nd, 2020 - 5:20pmI replied back to you on that, Bakerloo Line. ‘Glad that you got one of the set, though. Sorry if I wasn’t helpful enough. I did do my best to help as many people as I could. 🙂
Bakerloo Line
December 2nd, 2020 - 6:00pmThanks Doctorus. I expect if you go anytime this week you could get one as there was plenty in stock. I also expect that the Coal Hill set will show up at some point. I’m checking the Loughborough store on Monday for it
Doctorus
December 2nd, 2020 - 7:52pmI managed to get the Witch’s Familiar set today, Bakerloo Line 🙂 Really lovely figures!

Mr Fish
December 2nd, 2020 - 4:07pmWent to the Reading Brunel store this morning. Only 2x Ace + Dalek sets – I bought one. Sadly the other set’s Dalek has a very bent eyestalk. Sorry. No 12th Doctor + Davros sets (and no ticket on the shelf for it).
Century 22 Productions
December 2nd, 2020 - 6:51pmOk cheers!

December 1st, 2020 - 7:52pmNew B&M superstore in Mold, N Wales has loads of coal hill school. Only a few Witch’s familiar sets
The Living Shadow
December 1st, 2020 - 7:13pmLeytonstone have plenty of new sets in! About 6 Coal Hill School sets and countless Witches Familiar (if I had to estimate around 14?) sets were still there when I left the store earlier today
Greg
December 2nd, 2020 - 2:22pmI picked up a Witch’s familiar set from Leytonstone and there were x3 left when I headed to the till. There were no Coal Hill sets, but they had quite a few History of the Dalek sets 1 & 2!
Anonymous
December 1st, 2020 - 7:10pmIt seems to me that the stock has been mainly Witches sets in the North of England (I’ve seen lots today in around 5 different B&Ms while hunting) and more Coal Hill sets in the South from the comments here. Why can’t Character just let us order them direct online ffs. Pre-orders, then they wouldn’t be left with loads of extra stock, and wouldn’t have to cut B&M in. It doesn’t seem like rocket science.
I would love some rocket science, with a backpack an Ace and an Imperial Dalek right now though. No luck for me yet.
TimelordTim
December 1st, 2020 - 8:14pmCharacter rely on B&M as they are guaranteed sales. B&M presumably pay for them up front and Character have the money they need to continue. The sets only sell as well as they do by being in store where footfall gets the casual buyers, which is what keeps B&M interested in the range.
Selling online works for the occasional exclusives but, as the attempt to sell Missy online showed, there isn’t enough demand to do it for all sets.
They can’t just sell pre-order requests, this likely wouldn’t be anywhere near enough to be successful.
They also can’t make to order so they’ll be left with stock if they don’t sell. Whereas selling to B&M means Character don’t have stock left over. Neither do B&M as they reduce stock to sell it off eventually if needed.
On a website like this, with all the fans and collectors, it is easy to forget we are not enough to make this a successful, and therefore continuing, range for Character.
Without B&M we would have a very limited range, if we had any at all.
I get the frustration that we can’t order online. But it just isn’t going to happen in the current market. It wouldn’t work for them on a large scale business model like they need to keep going unfortunately, otherwise they’d already be doing it.

Demdike@CultLabs
November 30th, 2020 - 6:22pmThe Burnley and Colne stores in Lancashire have all sets available. I’ve been to both stores today (Not for these though).

December 1st, 2020 - 4:31pmNo Coal hill sets seen today 🙁
Mrbadwolf
December 1st, 2020 - 6:10pmDid they have the Coal Hill school sets too?
Demdike@CultLabs
December 1st, 2020 - 7:24pmThey definitely had a Coal Hill set at Colne. I put it back on the shelf as the Dalek eye stalk was bent by the packaging.
Greg
November 30th, 2020 - 4:33pmI’ve just picked up a Coal Hill School set from Hounslow. They have x5 left on the shelf as of 4.30pm. They still don’t have any 12th Doctor sets though.
prototype dalek
November 30th, 2020 - 4:23pmRugby Elliot Park has x2 Coal Hill School Set’s, didn’t seem to have stocked the Davros set.
Doctorus
November 30th, 2020 - 4:50pmSo, could there be a possibilty that Leicester may get some stock soon, Prototype Dalek?
Prototype dalek
November 30th, 2020 - 5:10pmPotentially, if there was than it’ll be sometime later in the week, just depends who is on the list to get them and what grade they are in.
Doctorus
November 30th, 2020 - 5:22pmWhat if a local B&M store orders some of the stock. Would the warehouse accept the order and send it to them? Furthermore, would the warehouse cancel the order and allocate it to different stores?
Prototype dalek
November 30th, 2020 - 5:37pmIf the store puts an order down than I should think some can be sent over if they have some available still. Not the warehouse responsibility to cancel and reallocate stock, only from the store that can make that happen as its all automated who gets what based on grades.
Doctorus
November 30th, 2020 - 5:40pmI’m assuming what you mean by grades is how well these sets sell in a specific store? So, sorry to bother you, Prototype Dalek.
Prototype dalek
November 30th, 2020 - 6:30pmB&M stores are given certain grades which means they receive certain items, example Rugby elliot Park is a top grade store so will more than likely get items like doctor who in, Clock tower store is a lower grade and so won’t get doctor who items amongst others. How grades are classified i don’t know but they vary from place to place.
Doctorus
November 30th, 2020 - 2:15pmHey, if anyone doesn’t mind me asking, if a local B&M store orders the stock for the November sets, does it mean it’ll DEFINITELY 100% be sent to that local B&M store without delay or the stock being allocated to a different B&M store? Or is there a chance of the order of the stock being sent to that local B&M store getting cancelled?
Cook
November 30th, 2020 - 12:31pmPlenty of Coal Hill and Witches familiar sets, aswell as some leftover October releases (5th Doctor TARDIS) at Lincoln Outer Circle Road

Doctor Unknown
November 30th, 2020 - 10:40amI’m typing out of luck, but are the new sets in London yet? Preferably in south or east London, but not outside London.
Doctorus
November 30th, 2020 - 11:11amOne person said that Hounslow had some in stock.
Doctor Unknown
November 30th, 2020 - 12:39pmI saw, but that’s over an hour away, and I can’t get there.
Doctorus
November 30th, 2020 - 12:42pmOh I do apologise. Good luck finding them in the area where you live. =(

Bakerloo Line
November 29th, 2020 - 5:30pmDoctorus tell me if you find anything in the Leicester area, and I’ll keep you posted if I find anything myself.
Doctorus
November 29th, 2020 - 6:04pmI went to all three B&M stores on Friday, these were the results:
B&M Belgrave Gate: 2x 12th Doctor Companion sets, shelf full of the Friends and Foe 13th, a couple of the sontaran sets with Peri and that’s it.
B&M Haymarket: 1x Claws of Axos set, 1x Companions of the 4th Doctor (July 2020) but, plenty of Friends and Foe sets.
B&M St Georges: Nothing.
I’ve no idea if Leicester’ll be getting them.
Doctorus
November 29th, 2020 - 6:09pmI’m going to be very busy for a couple of weeks so, I’m not going to be able to check all the time. Sorry, Bakerloo Line.
Bakerloo Line
November 29th, 2020 - 7:00pmNo problem, I’m waiting to see if any appear around Loughborough or Market Harborough. I’ll keep you updated
Doctorus
November 29th, 2020 - 7:19pmOk, many thanks. Just to point this out to anyone that, I only intend to use this website to find information about the products and help people as much as I can, with good intent. I do not intend to, make friends with anyone online. I apologise if I did come across as aggressive.
Doctorus
December 1st, 2020 - 2:36pmAny updates in Market Harborough or Loughborough, Bakerloo Line? Apologies for being impatient.
Bakerloo Line
December 1st, 2020 - 3:51pmIt’s fine, I’m inpatient about these sets too. I will be going at the weekend to Leicester stores and to the other stores over the Christmas break. Sorry I’m taking so long to locate these sets
Doctorus
December 1st, 2020 - 4:30pmNo, no it’s fine! I hope I wasn’t being demanding. I do apologise if I sounded rude. I’m trying to locate these sets and help as many people as I can, too. But, unfortunately I’m currently very busy for a few weeks so, I’m not able to check stores at the moment. I really, really do hope Leicester gets them.
Bakerloo Line
December 1st, 2020 - 5:57pmI also really hope Leicester gets them. And do not worry, you are not being demanding, you’re just as annoyed at the unfair distribution of these sets as anyone else
Doctorus
December 2nd, 2020 - 3:22pmAccording to the B&M app (from booboo), there’s the Davros set showing stock in B&M home leicester.
