    Want more Series 6 figures in 5″ line.

    I figure that with character’s 5″ line this year, they haven’t had the money or the budget needed to make a satisfactory wave.

    With so few figures being produced, and the quality of the Doctor figures being lower than usual (so far), fans and buyers alike are sure to be dissapointed if this is ALL we get. 🙁

    The Doctor figures no longer have the shirt-buttons painted on them, and despite the new articulation and head sculpt (both excellent) they can still do MORE. ❗

    My dream series 3 super rares (but I hope they don’t make any, or else only about 100 people in britain are going to get one):

    500-River Song wearing Time of The Angels dress.

    450-Amy wearing eyepatch.

    300-Doctor wearing eyepatch.

    300-Cybercontroller

    230- Ood Sigma.

    230-Doctor with stetson.

    150-Red Dalek Supreme.

    And the rarest of them all!!

    100-Astronaut with flippable visor revealing River’s Face!!!

      EYE PATCH MADAME KAVORIAN
      EYE PATCH AMY
      EYE PATCH RORY
      EYE PATCH RIVER
      EYE PATCH DOCTOR
      EYE PATCH SILENT
      AND THREE EYE PATCH GUARDS

      AS YOU CAN SEE THIS WOULD BE A 10 PACK

      WHAT DOES EVERYONE THINK ???

      Unfortuanately Vincent can’t be made since he is a historical character and would need to base it on the actual Vincent.
      By 11th Doctor in changing clothes, do you mean from The Eleventh Hour or The End Of Time as there is already a super rare raggedy Doctor availble (if you can find it)
      like the Scarecrow army builder though! 🙂

      Hopefully there will be more, and from even earlier as well.

      If they want to use the 9th and 10th Doctors now they are technically covered by the “classic” lisence by the BBC so if they keep releasing figures from them then they can release from earlier Doctors as well.

      There is a classic range, it’s just not as big as the Eleventh Doctor’s range.

      Also, CO have never had a Torchwood lisence and gave up the SJA lisence years ago so they won’t be made into CB form.

      what we saw at the toy fair were initial “mock ups” to give the trade general idea of what Character intend to introduce this year but some of the specifics will not have been finalised yet. we will have to wait until the official info and images are released to find out exactly what comes with it

      Not too sure it’s from The Curse Of The Black Spot, the TARDIS had an electrical feel to it when it couldn’t land (or whatever happened). Theres a picture of it on the back of the Doctor Who Official Annual 2012. I’m pretty sure it’s from any episode or, as some are suggesting, The Impossible Astronaut. These are just mock ups though so we’ll have to wait and see! 😀
