October 31st, 2011 - 9:20pmJust received this today: No idea what number mine is as the card is stuck behind the Count & I can’t see it? But up close the Julian Glover likeness is excellent!

November 2nd, 2011 - 4:38amThere’s a way to find out what number you have without open it
Radburn
November 2nd, 2011 - 12:21pmHow? . . . And do we know what’s on the back of the card?
David
November 2nd, 2011 - 4:26pmI’m from Italy so i’ll try to explain. Take the set and go under a source of light. As you can see there are 2 sides of the clear plastic pachaging: one at the front(bigger) and one at the top(smaller). You have to look at the space between the Mona lisa and the count shoulders through the top clear plastic: there should be a hole inside, in the moulded plastic. Through it, if you angle the set properly, you should be able to see the number, which as you know is printed at the top right of the card. mine is 328

monster01
October 28th, 2011 - 11:35amthat would be well good and the brig from battlefeild too
McGann is the Doctor.
October 28th, 2011 - 4:15pmNo, the brig from Dr Who and the Silurians or Terror of the Autons would be much better.
They still need to make the Anthony Ainley Master figure, one that has the main costume. ❗ 😀 would buy that one in a flash.

October 26th, 2011 - 1:29pmlooks good.
McGann is the Doctor.
October 27th, 2011 - 9:50amLOOKS ? It IS good !
If I were a fan of that story I would be so excited to get this set, but I haven’t seen it nor do I want to, so I just want the Doctor. ;D
But my tastes are the exception rather than the norm, in Dr Who fandom. 😉
dalek eternal
October 27th, 2011 - 6:17pmits is a good episode u should watch it it is actually filmed in paris u get to see lots of paris
McGann is the Doctor.
October 28th, 2011 - 4:18pmI know, I did watch some of it on youtube, and was amazed to see John Cleese was in it (for a bit). This was amazing for me because I’ve seen fawlty towers alot. 😀
Unfortunately, I was appauled by this guy who finds old-who/Classic Who boring and uneventful, says that nothing ever really happens in it.
I thought he was terribly mis-informed, he said that City of Death was the only “good” episode and that I should watch it. I could go on about him for hours, but it doesn’t matter.

October 26th, 2011 - 12:58pmJust to let you know the FP.co.uk are offerring free postage on the unsigned version of this set – never seen that before, so I took advantage of it 🙂
booboo
October 26th, 2011 - 1:17pmthat nice of them
Rooners
October 26th, 2011 - 1:28pmVery – lets hope they start doing that more often 🙂
booboo

The Last Centurion

MadmanWithABox
October 25th, 2011 - 9:28pmlisten booboo i have seen that quite a few of your comments have stated something like sellers arnt really stating they are customs properly or something like that, do you mean all the sellers that have been making custom matt football doctors and astronauts from the character building set 1 and not really stating that they’re customs
booboo
October 26th, 2011 - 7:42amYes. i have seen people selling roman rory’s saying they are “rare” and brand new out of packet but not stating they are customs, i have seen people selling the Tescos astronaut as the impossible astronaut and Rare specially made football Doctors which is just a hash up of the tesco set which any one can make so yes there are a lot or people trying to take advantage of those who may not realise what they are.

October 26th, 2011 - 7:57amDon’t you think thats just weird Booboo.
booboo
October 26th, 2011 - 8:31ami think its trying to take advantage of people who aren’t quite up on what’s what
Mumble5557
October 26th, 2011 - 8:35amBut then again its just odd.
