Character Building Super Rare’s Series 3

The figures include only 500 of the Eleventh Doctor in tuxedo, 250 each of Rory in his nurse’s uniform and River Song in a catsuit, and just 100 each of Amy with tally marks and a space-suited Tenth Doctor.

Mark Hunt, Brand Manager for Character, commented:The first and second series of super rare micro-figures were such a hit that we just had to add some super rare figures to the new collection. There is a huge demand for these figures which are findable… but it is a challenge!

Each also comes with a golden ticket of authenticity.

    it’s a shame that they had to do more super rare figures, i think the doctor should have came with his top hat and cane.

    I like them, but find it really annoying that this is now the fourth batch of Super Rares – guess my bank balance is going to take another hit once these start hitting eBay as doubtful I’ll ever find them in blind bags.

      Fourth? If there’s a super rare set each for series 1, 2, and 3, what’s the fourth set?

      There is
      River: Feel for hair, but has no skirt to feel for as with series 3
      Amy: Nothing really
      Rory:Again nothing
      10th Doctor: Head and sonic
      11th: Nothing.

      I would assume he’s holding a mobile phone given the costume (Eleventh Hour) – it does look like he’s holding something to me.

    Rubbish practice and having emailed CB about Dr Who Figs in the past it does not suprise me that they have no clue what their customers really want.

    These guys are just wasting so many opportunites with this range its rather sad

    Also what happenned to the bare headed Sontaran and Judoon

    These look good but this time I am not buying loads of them to try and find them. However a Judoon and a Sontaran should be easy to feel through the packet. Those I want and the Dalek.

    Also apart from FP and Hamleys in Cardiff who else is selling these? A new Tesco that has just opened near me is still selling series 2.

      They’ve sold for up to Β£300 on eBay. Clearly if people are willing to pay that much for a figure that the seller bought for Β£2, they have to be considered a hit

    Interesting that we find out now about the super rares, yet no one that I have met or have seen on the net has found one. Boxes may have initially been limited, but many thousands of packets must have already been opened, which makes me wonder if it is only the second wave of boxes to hit the UK that have them.

    Great to see etc but a shame if all those loyal fans who now already have a full set stood no chance of a super rare. I hope I am wrong, but evidence would suggest otherwise.
