This is a comment. Do not be alarmed.
February 11th, 2012 - 11:57amYes 😡 I started to build this but was missing a few pieces from the conveyor belt! Got in touch with Character and they will send out the pieces I need 🙂
ultimate character building
December 29th, 2011 - 5:25pmi was building this in the milddle of the night last night cause i couldn”T get to sleep. and also were you missing some pices booboo? i was missing hundreds!!
BOOBOO JR
December 29th, 2011 - 9:57pmLol, I’ve done that before, tried to build the Mega Tardis Set during the night. I ended up breaking it and I had to start again! I also was missing some pieces when I built stuff, I used Lego Bricks from my collection to make up for them but it wasn’t helpful that they were missing in the first place.
BOOBOO JR
August 30th, 2011 - 5:08pmWhat are the dimensions of this set?

August 6th, 2011 - 2:11am💡 I’ve got a solution for the conveyor belt problem in the DALEK FACTORY SET. Use some blocks of LEGO which is almost as long as the conveyor itself and attach underneath to the support block.

August 2nd, 2011 - 8:22amcan anyone keep their dalek on the convayor belt mine keeps falling off is this good
Anonymous
August 2nd, 2011 - 10:07amI’ve not had much luck with it either, they should have put something under teh conveyor belt’s top part to hold it in place while the Dalek moves and there aren’t enough spare parts in the box to hold it up.

August 1st, 2011 - 8:19pmbooboo can u pls put up a pic of the entire set with both figures in on flickr

GreenAnchorRedWaterfall
February 11th, 2012 - 12:07pmSome of the pieces missing, just go to the Character Online website and say what pieces are missing but it depends what box you get 🙁 I love the Dalek Scientist! It’s so orangy!
booboo
August 1st, 2011 - 5:07pmI went into the entertainer today and this is on the shelf for £20 – bargain i Know its that on their website but i was surprised to see it in-store
BOOBOO JR
August 1st, 2011 - 5:10pmThat really annoys me! My local Entertainer Store closed down recently! Booboo, could you please tell me what the Delivery prices are for when you order of their website?
booboo
August 1st, 2011 - 5:16pmStd delivery is £3.95
BOOBOO JR

August 1st, 2011 - 5:04pmbooboo,
please on flickr can you post a picture of all the cb daleks with the progeniter set.
booboo
August 1st, 2011 - 5:05pmi will see if i can do one
whofan4ever
July 31st, 2011 - 2:52pmis it quite big because it looks big for the pic and i know that lego sets can be overpriced like harry potter hagrids hut which is like 40 pounds
booboo
July 31st, 2011 - 2:54pmreasonable size yes with conveyor , moving lift and arm etc, its very good
Twelth Cyber Legion
August 1st, 2011 - 6:39amThe ones that are overpriced are overpriced because there in films e.g. Harry Potter, Star Wars, Toy Story e.t.c
DouglasFir
July 31st, 2011 - 1:51pmAny idea where the leftover stickers go? The Pandorica looking ones and the ones for the curved columns are obvious but there are some stickers that don’t appear to go anywhere?
booboo
July 31st, 2011 - 2:03pmwe have some left over as well which dont seem to belong anywhere
Joe
July 31st, 2011 - 2:03pmmaybe they are spares.
DouglasFir
July 31st, 2011 - 2:19pmThere are spares but then there are also two each of another design that don’t seem to belong to the set (they are the same two stickers used on the consoles in the Dalek Progenitor Room mini set).
GreenAnchorRedWaterfall
February 11th, 2012 - 12:16pmI was wondering that myself 😕 I might just stick where, in the photo, where the Dalek Scientist is!
P.S. It might just be another exclusive sticker like they do in every set e.g. The Time of Angels set had two Dr Who logos in it.
Bowtiemadjacob
July 31st, 2011 - 9:49amdosn’t this come with parts to build more drones?
booboo
July 31st, 2011 - 10:19amno, its changed significantly from the original images
Bowtiemadjacob
July 31st, 2011 - 9:00pmWell I certainly think the old design was better cos i really wanted to get loads of drones but yet again theres aways the army builders booboo do you recon they should sell cb silence and do a army builder of them?
Anonymous
July 31st, 2011 - 9:36pmBack in February it was reported that UT were showing a CB Silence amry builder pack, but as with most US toy fairs they give away all information but have control over what gets pictures released. They were unable to confirm whether it would actually come out but it certainly shows it is a possibility.
DALEK2626
July 31st, 2011 - 12:46amWhy are there Pandorica’s everywhere? Either way this looks brilliant!
timelord22
August 1st, 2011 - 5:00pmmaybe we’ll see a CB Pandorica set soon…

BOOBOO JR
July 30th, 2011 - 1:25pmIs this a better set than the Cyberman one?
Tree
July 30th, 2011 - 5:27pmNo I personally prefer the Cyberman one
rabid frog
July 30th, 2011 - 8:49amif you put the panel where the convayor belt is put that by the progenitor set you could remake ‘Victory Of The Daleks’
Sebatron
July 30th, 2011 - 7:41amI may be getting this from my aunt in Ireland.
So excited.
Anonymous
July 29th, 2011 - 11:32amI ordered one of these a few days ago and it should be arriving today. It looks great.
Sebatron
July 30th, 2011 - 7:26amWhat colour are the discarded parts and can you make more daleks out of them?
Anonymous
July 30th, 2011 - 1:24pmThere aren’t any discarded parts.
Sebatron
August 1st, 2011 - 7:29amOk but on the picture there is a bin or box with dalek parts in it. I was wondering if you can make more daleks out of them.
please answer.
drwhocbreviews
August 1st, 2011 - 11:10pmthe bits in the bin arnt included there just there for show purposes

July 17th, 2011 - 6:47pmwhat figures are in series 2 cb
booboo
July 17th, 2011 - 6:52pmwe dont know yet
Anonymous
July 17th, 2011 - 8:17pmRiver Song and a Dalek. The other eight figures, and the specific details on those two have yet to be announced.
Mumble5557
July 17th, 2011 - 8:36pmI herd that we would see a dalek maybe stone or a scientist
booboo
July 17th, 2011 - 8:37pmwell i hope we get the scientist, not sure about a stone one
Anonymous
July 17th, 2011 - 9:24pmI would rather get the stone one so we can get a larger variety of figures rather than getting a re-release.
Liam
July 17th, 2011 - 10:44pmI hope the scientist gets a single release as i want the figures but not the sets (apart from the Tradis interior)I dont want to have to fork out £30 just to get it
?? ???
July 18th, 2011 - 5:18pmWhat do you mean and how did you find this out????
booboo
July 18th, 2011 - 5:49pmIt was said at the Christmas in July event

Anonymous
July 19th, 2011 - 11:44amThe only written information we have is on play.com but it only mentions the Dalek.
Sebatron
July 30th, 2011 - 7:33amI heard there will be
Doctor (red bow-tie)
Amy (police outfit)
Cyber-Leader
Auton Roman(maybe Rory)
Vampire Girl
Daleks(Supreme and Eternal)

Boodleoo
July 17th, 2011 - 1:48pmYeah I saw these on amazon it has the same description
Boodleoo
July 17th, 2011 - 2:04pmDo you think they’ll stick to these 5 or do you think they’ll change them? I think they’ll add more of the new series
booboo
July 17th, 2011 - 2:06pmyes i think at least 5 of these will be from series 6
Boodleoo
July 17th, 2011 - 2:06pmsorry these 5 http://www.drwhofigures.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=3620&start=30 scroll down a bit
Boodleoo
July 17th, 2011 - 2:14pmI think they should do the saturnyne because she looks quite easy same dress from weeping angel and she looks quite good.

Anonymous
July 17th, 2011 - 3:09pmThat description confirms that at least one of the figures is a Dalek and a River Song was confirmed at Christmas in July, and also there is a similar one for the HM Armed Forces except it says there are 12 figures so I would guess they have been sent the information but are not allowed to put out pictures yet.
?? ???
July 18th, 2011 - 5:39pmthat link doesnt work either!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boodleoo
July 19th, 2011 - 4:44pmlook at this link go down the the slideshow scroll go through the slide show till you get to the poster of series 2. http://doctorwhotoys.net/characterbuilding.htm
booboo
July 19th, 2011 - 4:47pmThe poster is irrelevant now as a least 60% of the figures will be different
Boodleoo
July 19th, 2011 - 4:54pmOh ok thts a shame we’ll miss out on some good ones but maybe the new ones will be better especially if they do a silence
Ig
July 19th, 2011 - 5:22pmIf its 60% different they may keep about three of them wich I hope are Amy in police outfit, auton roman, and vampire girl. The other seven could be another doctor maybe Stetson and river also could have headless monk or silence or iris or canton but I hope there is Rory
Who agrees with me?????
booboo
July 19th, 2011 - 5:28pmwell we know it river and a Dalek and that about it definatly like to see a silence and idris
Boodleoo
July 19th, 2011 - 5:35pmYeah I would really like to see a rory silence idris and vampire
Ig
July 19th, 2011 - 5:40pmDo you agree wit the Amy, vampire, roman part??
Boodleoo
July 19th, 2011 - 5:42pmyeah I do I think the new will be really good
