      we noticed that, probably mock up packaging of they haven’t decided which to put in it yet

    • BOOBOO JR

      I would like Bronze Daleks in it, we’ve had enough Drones already.

      i think it would look better with the golden dalek in then the new ones

      May 18th, 2012 - 7:26pm

      I think they should put an ironside in there (just like the scientist dalek last year in the dalek factory)

    THESE ARE NOT THE ACTUAL RELEASE DATES! This comment will be the POSSIBLE release dates based on when we got the figures last year:
    April: Early release of Series 3 and mini sets
    May: Full release of Series 3 and mini sets
    June: Army builders (if there are any) released
    July: Possibly a new Argos Army Builder Exclusive
    August: Some of the mega sets released. Early release of Series 4
    September: Full release of Series 4. All mega sets released

      January 24th, 2012 - 4:44pm

      They’ll probably follow the same as last year. Although October-December was a quiet period for the CB figures. Possibly because a lot of 5 inch figures were released then.

  • Ryan

    January 24th, 2012 - 4:31pm

    Character, you may not have delivered a great look ahead at the year for 5 Inch figures…

    But you have more than exceeded your standards for character building! WOW!

    But ‘A Berlin Set’? Really? Amy and Rory on moterbikes and a random HM Armed forces figure? AWESOME!

    Mini-Figures – £1.99

    Any ideas for the others?

      no we didn’t get prices, this is essentially a trade fair but character / evolution PR were really helpful in showing us all of this

    • BOOBOO JR

      January 24th, 2012 - 4:34pm

      What prices would you say though?

    • booboo

      January 24th, 2012 - 4:36pm

      19.99 – 29.99 for the silent and 29.99 – 39.99 for the Dalek may be

    • Nathan

      January 24th, 2012 - 11:10pm

      The Silence ship will probably be cheap as it has only 25 pieces more than The Girl Who Waited mini-set, which should cost £9.99. Therefore, it will probably be around £20. The Dalek saucer, on the other hand, will probably be considerably more.

    • I eat hoix 4 breakfast

      May 20th, 2012 - 11:31pm

      I Wrekin the saucer will be £30 simple logic really the dalek factory set cost £30 and came with two daleks, this set has two daleks as well.

    Wow!!!! Amazing wave! Out of all the sets my fave is The Girl Who Waited Mini Set. It just looks so good plus, depending on the rarity if the wave, it’d be a good chance to get a Hanbot.
    Speaking of CB I got my first ever H.M Armed Forces figure today!! It was the Royal Marines Sniper. 😀

      January 24th, 2012 - 4:19pm

      The New TARDIS set is probably the only one there I don’t like as much. but it looks much better than the Temporal Combat Set.

    • The Wooden Prince (Previously Admiral Icktheus)

      14 are shown in the promo image but in the display one there are 16. This suggests Dalek Sec and the Silent are rare.
