Build your Doctor Who micro-figure collection with all new Series 3 micro-figures featuring characters from the hit TV show.
Each highly detailed and fully articulated micro-figure is sealed within a secret bag, so you never know which Doctor Who Micro-figure you are going to get!

The Master
November 27th, 2012 - 8:07pmI recon they should make the dalek sec hybrid and the cult of skaro for series 4 of the micro figures, provided there is going to be a series 4 🙂
Friend of the Ood

November 28th, 2012 - 9:00amFriend of the Ood – they may not have them in stock yet but there is a Forbidden Planet in Dublin (5-6 Crampton Quay) which should be getting them (they’ve certainly had the Series 1 & 2 mini-figures in the past)! 🙂

Mumble5557
November 25th, 2012 - 4:40pmWhen people fell them in shops isn’t there a mass chance that you’ll get security on your back especially kids around my age as it looks like we are shop lifting! We aren’t!
The Noise Tank Cyberman
November 25th, 2012 - 5:25pmyeah its like here in the US they keep them in a Sealed Case so you REALLY can’t tell which one you get 🙁
Mumble5557
November 25th, 2012 - 5:53pmwe don’t have cases they just have more shop assistance walking around
The Noise Tank Cyberman
November 25th, 2012 - 6:01pmLucky you 🙂
Kroton
November 25th, 2012 - 6:23pmIn the shops by me they are on the counter, but the people who work in the shops help me feel them and help me find out what they are! I suppose it gives them something to do, sometimes they open them and if you don’t want that figure they will just have a display of open ones and you can choose which you want!
BOOBOO JR
November 25th, 2012 - 6:28pmThat sound great Kroton, the staff helping you to feel, and actually being able to open them before buying the figures. I doubt anywhere near me would be willing to do that 🙁
The Whovastatron
November 25th, 2012 - 9:25pmwhen they 1st out, they brought the box out at argos (this was before they wer eout on the side. And i stood at the till feeling through them. even my dad and the shop worker helped 🙂
i love karen gillan
November 25th, 2012 - 4:00pmare they in asda or tesco
Nathan Hancock
November 25th, 2012 - 4:50pmI don`t think so, they weren’t in my local store yesterday
Angels Of Death
November 26th, 2012 - 10:42ami’ve been looking in tesco and they said they will have them in next week.
DrAmyRoryRiverBANG
November 26th, 2012 - 4:36pmWhere?
The Noise Tank Cyberman
November 25th, 2012 - 3:18pmBooboo is the dalek all one part or is it in sections like the 2010 daleks? Either way still awesome
booboo
November 25th, 2012 - 3:20pmno its in several bits
JACK
November 25th, 2012 - 2:42pmwill the sontaran commander ever come on CB
booboo

doctorwhofan561
November 25th, 2012 - 1:19pmcan’t wait they come out on my birthday what are the super rares
booboo
November 25th, 2012 - 1:20pmwe dont know yet
Sebatron
November 27th, 2012 - 10:14amMaybe they are the helmet less sontaran,judoon and Dalek sec
alfie
December 1st, 2012 - 7:56pmor Maybe the helmet less sontaran,judoon and Dalek sec are in army bulider pacs
.
Sebatron
December 11th, 2012 - 1:25amCould Be!
the whovastatron
November 25th, 2012 - 11:31amThat poll for how you collect figures dosent have a ‘feel the packets and never get doubles’ answer. Its so easy to tell these apart. The only doubles i have ever got from cb accidently are NT Amy, when looking for the police amy. And when i mixed up amy with restac.
booboo
November 25th, 2012 - 11:33amfine, if you happen to live somewhere that sells them which we dont
The Monitor
November 25th, 2012 - 4:31pmIn the past when I have had the time I too have spent time successfully feeling packets. Buy a Dalek and its red, go back, but another Dalek and luckily it its blue) However there are drawbacks:-
a) fewer shops are selling them these days
b) having the time to do it
c) most importantly of all is that such activity does attract the attention of store detectives…
…for this reason or because of theft or likelihood of theft one supermarket even put each packet into a plastic container only unlockable at the till.

November 25th, 2012 - 9:18ami would in charcter buliding form a steven moffat brian and cube oswan in red dress weeping angel with chains oh and this one classic the raston robot
oscarwho
November 25th, 2012 - 9:15amspeaking of series 3 why did the sets come out first
booboo
November 25th, 2012 - 9:53amthere was a delay in marketing the figures, i understand it was because to much series 2 was still on the shelves
Sebatron
November 25th, 2012 - 8:43amWhere can you buy a full box online in Australia?
CG
November 29th, 2012 - 9:00amProbably from ABC Shop Online.
Jack
November 24th, 2012 - 11:59pmWhich figures are going to be rare or what figures would you like to see
The Noise Tank Cyberman
November 25th, 2012 - 4:00amUndefined 🙁 i’d like to see captain jack harkness or the master
Imaginethatnodoor
November 25th, 2012 - 11:24amah. i made a custom both of them
CG
November 24th, 2012 - 11:04pmI am ordering some of these today with my birthday money.
the Little snowman
November 25th, 2012 - 11:13amDid u have a good bday
CG
November 29th, 2012 - 9:01amYes I did thanks. I got the eleven doctors character building set, a series 1 dvd and the official 2013 calender.
Judooning
November 24th, 2012 - 9:14pmThat’s quite bad if you stated on the phone that you wanted a full box and they even agreed.
I got put off ordering from Character when i ordered the series 6 white shirt 11th Doctor and they sent me the 11th Dr with beard figure.
booboo
November 24th, 2012 - 9:33pmwas always told if you ordered 36 you automatically got a box but i phoned to make sure, i have heard from several others who all got boxes yesterday or today.
Imaginethatnodoor
November 24th, 2012 - 7:17pmbooboo are you selling any of these. e.g. the sontarans or judoon
booboo
November 24th, 2012 - 7:33pmi dont have those
BOOBOO JR
November 24th, 2012 - 7:34pmAre you going to be selling any of your duplicates?
booboo
November 24th, 2012 - 7:35pmi might send them all back, will see what they say, to be honest i’m not happy about things at the moment
BOOBOO JR
November 24th, 2012 - 7:40pmFair enough, after specifically requesting a full unopened box.
The Driver
November 24th, 2012 - 7:16pmNow Im really losing patience as to when they will be in my shops, and as to when I can get my hands on them! I just love that judoon and sontaran!
The Monitor
November 24th, 2012 - 6:49pmProbably will be difficult to pick up from stores. Wilkinsons (near me) no longer sells anything Doctor Who. John Lewis’s near me are still trying to lose series 1 and 2 figures. Asda only has one Who item (Cleric Wars) and Sainsburys has nothing, the same with Tesco. FP did not have the S3 figures today.
It is becoming quite a challenge getting things…
Nathan Hancock
November 24th, 2012 - 6:49pmWhere did you get your box from booboo?
booboo
November 24th, 2012 - 6:51pmthe box is an official image
i love karen gillan
November 25th, 2012 - 1:20pmare they in asda
dan23
November 24th, 2012 - 6:47pmExcellent! Will you be adding your own pictures of the individual figures at some point, BooBoo?
booboo
November 24th, 2012 - 6:48pmyes but i am 4 short at the moment
dan23
November 24th, 2012 - 7:07pmOh right which are you missing?
booboo
November 24th, 2012 - 7:10pmof the 36 figures i didn’t get Madame korvian nor any Jundoons, Sontarans of Vashta Nerada – the 4 rarest funilly enough, got loads of hanbots and Daleks.
dan23
November 24th, 2012 - 7:26pmThat’s a bit wrong, I think there probably the four I like best.
The Driver
November 24th, 2012 - 7:27pmNOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! I must have that sontaran and judoon!
Dalek Sec
December 6th, 2012 - 3:21amDaleks are probably the most common, i don’t know about everyone else (they probably are annoyed by the repeats) but a mini Dalek army would be awesome. I would like to see someone build an Dalek Parilament.
Mr Evil Fez
November 24th, 2012 - 6:39pmI want all of them!
The Driver
November 24th, 2012 - 7:17pmMy top ones which I am going to concentrate on are going to be the judoon, sontaran, ood and 2005 dalek
Mr Evil Fez
November 25th, 2012 - 11:37amThe one I want to get the most is the Dalek.
Dalek Sec
December 6th, 2012 - 3:23amDalek Packets are the fatest.
SamBentleyUK
November 24th, 2012 - 6:23pmI love how, to me, the best ones are either common or un-common, with the exception of River Song. Ones I want:
Doctor
River
Dalek
Handbot
Ood
Sontaran
The Supreme Dalek
November 24th, 2012 - 6:23pmInteresting, would love a full box! 😀
