Character Building Super Rare Series 2

Details of new Super Rare Doctor Who Micro-figures revealed – Series 2 released and a new hunt is on!

Character Options, manufacturers of the Character Building Doctor Who construction toy range has confirmed that new Super Rare micro-figures ARE amongst the recently released Series 2 collection.

The Character Building Doctor Who construction micro-figures launched at Easter. There was an overwhelming demand for the Series 1 collection which was incredibly popular with fans; they embarked on an avid hunt when the five original Super Rare figures were slipped into the series.

With Series 1 sold through, Series 2 has been released and fans have been eager to find out if this new collection would also include some elusive specials. Well the rumours are confirmed and Character Options can now reveal the details.
What to look out for…

Out of millions of figures available, there are just 500 of the Hologram Silent, and River Song, whilst 250 each have been made of Rory Williams as the Last Centurion and Amy Pond in a Pirate Costume. Most elusive of all however will be the Eleventh Doctor unshaven and in a straightjacket with just 100 pieces to be found!

Each of these special figures is accompanied by an exclusive Doctor Who Gold display base and a Golden Ticket of Authenticity, another aspect that makes them highly collectable. Some Super Rare figures from Series 1 are already passing hands on eBay at over 60 times their face value!

Mark Hunt, Character Options, Brand Manager commented: “The Series 1 Super Rare micro-figures were such a hit that we just had to repeat the exercise for the new collection. There is a huge demand for these figures which are findable… but it is a challenge!”

Character Building Micro-Figures cost just £1.99 for the full details of the complete lineup of Series 2 check out www.character-online.com

    My five year old son got an rare Amy in Tescos in Warwick on Saturday. He picked out two and did the old Dad thing of “You can only have one” and we were amazed when we opened it. I didn’t even realise there was such as thing as rare figures. We’ve been buying them for him for a while.

    I always cut the top of the packet with scissors to open and unforunately I sliced the certificate in three pieces. I have stuck it on eBay – as he’d rather have a 3DS for Xmas at a competitive price here:

    I picked one packet up from the new box in my local ASDA on Sat night, felt around the packet (as I usually do!) felt River`s head and then noticed tiny piece moving around, hmm I thought so took a chance(already had 3 of the other River figs)got it home, opened it and guess what? it was the Ultra rare one with gun and gold base so how good was that?

      September 25th, 2011 - 8:06pm

      because if they make the super rares the best ones people are more likely to by loads of bags looking for them and then character get a load of money

    series 3 wishlist (i only have an amy and two daleks!!! well i lost my cb tardis and i have a paradigm set)
    doctor in top hat and cane
    nephew ood
    uncle(it would be ok as a cb fig)
    auntie
    idris
    winder
    liz 10 with two guns
    ironside dalek
    rory from the doctors wife or the vampires in venice
    francesco the vampire
    angel bob with a comunicator

    maybe a pandorica set with a dalek a cyberman and a sontaran
    a sontaran cloning machine because it doesnt need to be in the series

      i would like the unbreakable prison with a doctor in straight jacket stuck in a chair with canton, amy, rory and a doctor with a beard and no jacket
      maybe it could come with bodybags that fit amy and rory and a tardis in the background
      plus a door that moves and a little brick for cantons hand.
      even with a silent chained to the wall

      that would be a brilliant set and it comes with all the figures you would want(except river song)

      No they gave up the 5″ License for SJA, they have said nothing about SJA Character building, so maybe if we are lucky and with Elisabeth Sladens Family consent we May get one, and Maybe even a 5″ Classic one, Who Knows?

    • booboo

      September 8th, 2011 - 9:16pm

      They would have had to negotiate a new licence and i’m not sure they would do it even though the CB range would suit The Sarah Jane Adventures

      There was no CB back then and it probablly wasn’t even in consideration so when they gave up the lisence it was given up completely.

    Here’s a good idea for super rares seeing as they don’t inted to stop them.

    5000 of each.

    Then there will be one or two of the selection in every box so everyone has a decent chance of getting one or two of them.

      Agreed. There were apparently 500000 figures produced for series one, so 5000 figures of each wouldn’t be unreasonable at all.
