January 28th, 2012 - 6:10amYou could use the Tardis de-materialising mini set as the invisible TARDIS
King of the Cybermen
January 28th, 2012 - 6:59amThat’s actually one of the reasons they brought it out.
Shihan101 Productions
January 28th, 2012 - 3:49amThe silence time machine can be used as the Eighth Doctor’s TARDIS.

January 30th, 2012 - 6:14pmYEAH THAT WOULD BE COOL
tardistik
January 27th, 2012 - 9:00pmif character are doing pre-Series 5 figures – then this could mean that there are more RTD era figures – HURRAY! This would be BRILLIANT!
As well as this, they may decide to do Classic Series figures (some good ones would be Zygons and Sea Devils)
THIS IS FANTASTIC – I’M STARTING TO THINK THESE ARE BETTER THAN 5″ FIGURES

January 27th, 2012 - 8:30pmBooboo did you get any pictures of the Ben 10 range?
McGann is The Doctor.
January 27th, 2012 - 8:44pmNo, he said so earlier ! Go to the Ben ten website, tell Tom Kenny (who voice acts on the series) I like him in spongebob, though I don’t watch ben 10 😆 !
booboo
January 28th, 2012 - 10:45amno sorry
Anonymous
February 28th, 2012 - 4:34pmi dont like ben 10
dw2005
January 27th, 2012 - 5:28pmI think we need a slitheen, an auton (Rose version), a sycorax, maybe a krillitane, The Master (From the End of time), maybe a flood monster, maybe a siren, maybe Idris, a ganger, a headless monk, a peg doll and an amy peg doll.
Klxl K3 89 10 .
January 27th, 2012 - 4:14pmIt’s really qutie sad, how little effort CO have put into the 5″ line since seeing the SHEER AMOUNT OF potential it would have if they did.
Just look at all they’ve done for the CB here, I mean, I’m not saying the 5″ line for Series 6 needs something like a a Dalek Saucer set, just the characters and figures that are significant to the Series but have not yet been released for 5″ line, of that Series.
Amy (S6 shirt and jeans )
The Doctor in Longcoat (Closing time)
Handbots ! (The Girl who Waited)
Minotaur (God Complex)
dalek sec
January 27th, 2012 - 5:12pmI think its cool how they make these things so far i have spent £682.00 on dr who and cb so i will be getting this
McGann is The Doctor.
January 27th, 2012 - 8:48pmWoah, how do you keep track of all your spending habits ?! That is so much money, I’d never be comfortable spending htat much on toys, even though I love getting the 5″ figures ❗
I spend about £50 (usually 54) in Forbidden planet nowadays, only go there once every half a year or so, don’t go often.
If my parents knew, they’d be dissapointed, and dissaproving, with me ! Only buy the figures I really want, such as Idris, the Doctor figures without cowboy hat, and the Silence, need to get more !!! 😀
BOOBOO JR
January 27th, 2012 - 8:58pmI know, if I added up everything DW I’ve evr bought it would have cost me loads!

Mels
January 27th, 2012 - 9:50amI think the vashta nerada figure would completely freak me out. o_O 😮
I’m guessing if there are any super-rares, one will be the Doctor in tux, since we now have a long coat version.
god of the whoniverse
January 29th, 2012 - 8:44pmor stetson/fez&mop
Dalek Sec
January 27th, 2012 - 5:49amI have many a list of sets for every series 6 epi.
1. The Impossible Astronaut: The Oval Office with Canton and a Silent.

Jjpj
January 28th, 2012 - 8:16amWhat about siren hospital
Includes siren and boatswain
Dalek Sec
February 1st, 2012 - 6:32amThats a good idea as well. But you could just customize the Handbot set.
The Oncoming Storm
January 26th, 2012 - 10:13pmfor once the figure i want the most is the doctor!!! hope he’s not rare
Dalek Sec
January 27th, 2012 - 5:32amI hope Dalek Sec’s not rare. As you can see from this name, he’s my favorite Dalek.
Mels
January 27th, 2012 - 10:00amI’m not sure which is the final wave makup (if there is one yet, since there are more than 10 figures shown…) but if there’s only one doctor figure in the next wave, I suspect it will be common.
The Daleks however… I think the black dalek might end up being a set exclusive or released in a later wave. But it’s too early to tell.
Liason Ice
January 28th, 2012 - 6:02amI think that if there are super rares (hope not) that they will be.
1. Dalek Sec
2. Amy with Tally marks
3. Rory with eye drive
4. Madam Kovarian
5. Sontaran without helmet
The Wooden Prince (Previously Admiral Icktheus)
January 26th, 2012 - 9:12pmSince there are probably gonna be super rares I wouldn’t be surprised to see these ones:
The Doctor with top hat and tails and sonic cane
Rorybot
Hologram Amelia
Nephew
Amy Pond (The Wedding Of River Song)
cheesy ood (wasTime And Relative Dimension In Space)
January 26th, 2012 - 9:17pmi know this sounds stupid but what does hologram mean
The Wooden Prince (Previously Admiral Icktheus)
booboo
January 26th, 2012 - 9:21pmA projected 3d image made of light
cheesy ood (wasTime And Relative Dimension In Space)
January 26th, 2012 - 9:25pmso the amielia from the god complex
cheesy ood (wasTime And Relative Dimension In Space)
January 26th, 2012 - 9:25pmwe do need an amielia
The Wooden Prince (Previously Admiral Icktheus)
January 26th, 2012 - 9:58pmHologram Amelia was in Lets Kill Hitler. Let’s just hope CO don’t get any ideas from that and make “gulp” Hologram Rose.
dw2005
January 27th, 2012 - 5:16pmI wouldn’t mind a hologram Rose.
The Wooden Prince (Previously Admiral Icktheus)
January 27th, 2012 - 6:44pmIf they make a series 1 Rose I’ll be ok with that. If they make a series 2 and beyond Rose then it’ll be kept well away from my usual CB figures.
cheesy ood (wasTime And Relative Dimension In Space)
January 26th, 2012 - 9:07pmohps
The Wooden Prince (Previously Admiral Icktheus) you win LOL
The Wooden Prince (Previously Admiral Icktheus)
January 26th, 2012 - 9:13pmLol thanks! Glad I could suggest!
starzook
January 26th, 2012 - 8:43pmwhen are they out
The Wooden Prince (Previously Admiral Icktheus)
January 26th, 2012 - 8:57pmIf they follow the same way as last year then expect an early release in April and a full release in May.
dr tyler
January 26th, 2012 - 8:32pmits a bit ofa waste of time even though i love the figures your just gonna get a load of doubles
dw2005

The Wooden Prince (Previously Admiral Icktheus)
January 26th, 2012 - 8:23pmI’m a Hanbot now! Handbots are cool!
Of course The Doctor would have to be in disguise whilst saying that or he’s going to an awkward fancy dress party.

I think we need a headless monk, a slitheen and a peg doll.
The Wooden Prince (Previously Admiral Icktheus)
January 26th, 2012 - 8:11pmThe Doctor- Dissapointed that it’s the Closing Time version of the outfit but hey it’s still a fantastic figure
Amy- Not amazing but I still like it
Rory- Great
River- Would have preferred her from Lets Kill Hitler (oh the scene recreations we could make) but it’s still pretty good
Kovarian- Fat! Seriously she’s fat!
Sontaran- Long time coming but it looks great
Vashta Nerada- Brilliant
Judoon- Meh
Ood- Should have been Nephew
Dalek- Great
Cyberleader- Terrible- oh wait I’m looking at the Cybus logo!
Handbot- No words to describe it
The Wooden Prince (Previously Admiral Icktheus)
January 26th, 2012 - 8:15pmLets Kill Hitler Set- Meh. It’s not good and I’m surprised they got the guard in there
TARDIS- Don’t mind it but i’m dissapointed at the figures inside the set
The Girl Who Waited Set- Easily the best of the lot
Dalek Ship-Meh
Silent Time Machine- Ok
dr who fan 4 ever

god of the whoniverse
January 26th, 2012 - 4:35pmjuging by this i think character’s 5″ line will include:
handbots
tallymarks
eyepatches
and
rory
Boodleoo
January 26th, 2012 - 3:52pmWhats a cyberslime pod?
booboo
January 26th, 2012 - 3:53pmlike the goo pod but with a Character Building figure
PandoricaOwner
January 26th, 2012 - 4:09pmBooboo , do you have a picture of this cyberslime pod or even a description from yourself?
booboo
January 26th, 2012 - 4:12pmIt not a very good one as its blown up form the corner of one of our images but you can see it
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7028/6764554611_edfb27f33e_o.jpg
BOOBOO JR
January 26th, 2012 - 4:15pmJust another way to shift old figures, hopefully they’ll be differnet to the Temporal Combat ones.
Boodleoo
January 26th, 2012 - 6:38pmI’m guessing that it will be more expensive than buying the blind packets.
resistance0905
January 26th, 2012 - 6:58pmThey seem to miss the obvious tricks sometimes. Why not include an exclusive Doctor variant in the slime pod? I for one would definitely buy it just to own the variant, but have no intension of buying it for yet another duplicate figure.
Boodleoo
January 26th, 2012 - 7:13pmyeah same and if there just putting in duplicate figures in then there’s no way of telling if it’s another doctor for example because at least you get to feel around the blind packets which you can’t with these.
King of the Cybermen
January 26th, 2012 - 3:27pmBooboo, where you wrote on the CB list Berlin set, you wrote by mistake Roy instead of Rory. Just thought to tell you. 🙂 🙂
booboo
January 26th, 2012 - 3:36pmyes havent finished yet
King of the Cybermen
January 26th, 2012 - 12:36pmThis is the list that I like from 16 the worse to 1 the best!!
16 – Dalek Sec – It’s just ok, not too keen on the colour!
15 – Sontaran General ( probably Staal) – Don’t like his head.
14 – Rory with Eye Patch – he actually looks good, but couldn’t get at least in my top 10!!
13 – Judoon Trooper – Just ok.
12 – The Doctor – I like it, prefer it than the normal one, still not keen on it though…
11 – Amy with Tally Marks – She’s good, but couldn’t fit her in top 5. 🙁
10 – Ood – Very good and I’m quite pleased, but it’s not THE best.
King of the Cybermen
January 26th, 2012 - 12:46pm9 – 1:
8 – Judoon Captain – quite cool, so I put it in Top 10!
7 – Sontaran Trooper – Cool!
6 – Silence – We’ve seen it before, but I still like it!
5 – Handbot – One word: AWESOME!
4 – Madame Kovarian – Very very please with it!!!
3 – Vashta Nerada – It’s amazing!
2 – River Song – Best river figure we’ve had yet!!
1 – Cyber Leader – It’s FANTASTIC!!!! 🙂 🙂
King of the Cybermen
January 26th, 2012 - 12:49pmOk we have had a mistake! Judoon Captain is 9, Sontaran Trooper is 8 and silence is. 7, putting Dalek in 6!! 🙂
McGann is the Doctor.
January 26th, 2012 - 9:01amI gotta say, I don’t buy the Cb line, but these are some great ideas !
The Tardis Invisable ? It’s see-through ! You could see the figures inside, so cool ! Even though it would break the illusion of the tardis being transindental. :/
And the new figure of hte Doctor in Longcoat looks great, wish there was a 5″ figure, and the Minotuar, Handbots aswell as the Series 6 Amy. ❗
McGann is the Doctor.
January 26th, 2012 - 9:09amP.S I want an Amy from Impossible astronaught, with that checkerdy shirt and jeans. (Still talking 5″ line)
And how cool they have done the REAL Daleks now ! (CB line) 😀
King of the Cybermen
January 26th, 2012 - 12:24pmI do too, plus the one from Night Terrors and The Rebel Flesh! 🙂
Dalek Sec
June 5th, 2012 - 9:44amAmy’s best fashion sense was shown on Rebel Flesh (shame her clothes were just ganger flesh goo). But that figure needs an 5 inch figure, or at least an CB figure. (I prefer it being 5 inch)
THe Doctor
January 26th, 2012 - 8:25ami think now is a time to discuss super rare figures because there are none in the picture.
super rare:
the doctor with tie and tails & sonic cane
the astronaut with exchangable heads
soothsayer doctor
canton
more ideas coming soon
Anonymous
January 26th, 2012 - 4:53pmThey have before usually been varients of others, so only the first and third would work.
But cool ideas anyway 😀
The Doctor
January 27th, 2012 - 4:50pmsorry about the mistake in writing the doctor.
but thanks for the compliment mate
The Doctor
January 31st, 2012 - 3:24pmi just figured that if the astronaut came with a river and little girl heads then that would count because river is in series 3! 💡
HeyWhoTurnedOutTheLights
May 21st, 2012 - 10:21pmBecause of the amount of people who would like a astronaut I doubt there make it a super rare, but maybe the river from silence in the library.
Liason Ice
January 26th, 2012 - 7:11amIs the Silent in the ‘Silent Time Machine Set’ a open mouth or closed mouth?
TheMadManWithABox1
January 26th, 2012 - 7:11pmClosed by the looks of it
MadmanWithABox
January 26th, 2012 - 9:38pmlol similar name
I eat hoix 4 breakfast
May 21st, 2012 - 10:25pmThe open mouth silent was a Argos exclusive I doubt they would put it in a set.
