October 29th, 2016 - 6:07amSo this is definitely Under the Lake/Before the Flood and The Woman Who Lived. I swear the Last Christmas/Zygon Invasion/Sleep No More hoodies is black, not dark blue (it’s the Time Heist shirt colour debate, all over again!) But I suppose it’s close enough to count for those three as well, although I would also point out that in the Zygon story he wore the hoodie unzipped. But all of this is superfluous to the fact that this figure is awesome and I will definitely be buying it and the others in this wave (assuming they make their way to Aus)

October 29th, 2016 - 10:06amI don’t think it can quite pass off as a Woman Who Lived variant as in that episode the hoodie was grey not green and his trousers had a plaid pattern instead of one colour. To be honest though I am very happy that this is based off Under the Lake/Before the Flood as that was the best two-parter we’ve had in ages and even if the hoodie isn’t the correct colour it can still easily get away with being from Last Christmas as I’m not sure how many variants they will do on this figure in addition to the two.
TARDISGuy
October 30th, 2016 - 1:35amUnder the Lake/Before the Flood is my fave story from Series 9, so yes, I’m really happy that it’s at least based on that. I’d forgotten about the patterned trousers in Woman Who Lived. If anyone wanted a truly accurate Woman Who Lived figure, it would be a fairly easy repaint of the hoodie and trousers.

October 28th, 2016 - 9:31pmI love the fact we are still getting new figures, but I can understand peoples frustrations…
We are still waiting to have a minimum of 1 companion per Doctor! We need one each for the 1st, 2nd, 5th, 8th and a proper Clara. Classic monster wise I amazed they have not brought out a classic Silurian… Oh and of course there are the latest versions of the Cybermen, Zygons and Ice Warriors to be done! I can live with a couple of repaints per batch if they would just bring out one of these with them each time!
Come back Woolies, all is forgiven!!!!! :’-(

October 28th, 2016 - 11:24pmI think the disappearance on Woolworths and Gamleys on the British high street has inadvertantly aided the decline in Doctor Who figures. I used to buy all my figures from these two during series 1, 2, 3 & 4.
100,000BC
October 29th, 2016 - 6:47pmNot just the loss of Woolworths – the poor branding of the Series 5 figures also led to this sad situation. My eyes were drawn to series 1-4 figures in a shop due to the bright colours on the boxes; I walked past series 5 several times before I noticed them. If the Series 5 figures had simply kept the previous bright branding but with the new logo the figures would probably be in a better position than they are today. Places like Tesco stopped ordering because people weren’t buying and I believe that to be partly due to the fact that people would walk straight past them. Sadly a poor decision on Character’s part as it narrows down customers from the average passing kid to people who are specifically looking for them.
booboo
October 29th, 2016 - 6:57pmwould agree
but to be fair Character had to use the branding style for the time supplied by the BBC so not characters fault
DOCTORWHOFAN1
October 28th, 2016 - 8:05pmI don’t see why some people are complaining about this repaint when it is one of 2 accurate variants where as last year we had 4 approximate variants and the ones this year are far superior. I get there’s not many figures, but at least the one we are getting are very accurate unlike Clara who was given a purple rag as a figure.
booboo
October 28th, 2016 - 8:09pmthese figures are fine, its that fact that there is nothing new ( is in totally new character / monster) that’s causing the problem with many
UK Collector
October 28th, 2016 - 5:30pmGreat news! New figures at last! OK, so most of us would like something ‘completely’ new, but I don’t think anywhere us willing to stomp up the extra dosh it would require! Just to to hope that a shop in the UK gets them in!
WhoFan4ever
October 28th, 2016 - 2:54pmYet another excellent 12th Doctor figure variant! I’ll own that one too!
Dalekparadigm2
October 28th, 2016 - 12:24pmLast Christmas
Under the Lake
Before the Flood
The Zygon Invasion
The Zygon Inversion
I think this figure deserves a release…
Upset there’s no red velvet though.
100,000BC
October 28th, 2016 - 2:52pmDon’t forget The Woman Who Lived, Sleep No More and the young Davros scenes of The Magician’s Apprentice/The Witch’s Familiar.
Sometimes he had the jumper unzipped but still…
Ginger Winger
October 28th, 2016 - 12:11pmGutted! There’s so many figures that I want. I hate different costume variants
The Outcast
October 28th, 2016 - 12:24pmWell, they needed to afford the new sculpt somehow. This is how they do that. Saying that, there is still a small chance we’ll get one or two more new figures when Toys R Us announce them. Don’t be disapointed. 🙂
Ginger Winger
October 28th, 2016 - 12:30pmI’ll try not to be, but…
Clara (FTR)
Jackie Tyler
Asbill
Red Velvet Capaldi
Missy (Actual Series 9)
Ashildr
Kate
Osgood
Jac
Mr Sweet
Richard Hurndall’s 1st Doctor
‘Linda’ (LAM)
The list goes on…
The Outcast
October 28th, 2016 - 12:34pmThere’s actually a prototype for Hurndall, so if the CO wanted to, they could easily release it. As for Bill, a figure of her is on the way (In some form), according to a tweet from Pearl. 🙂

October 28th, 2016 - 12:47pmAsBill! Yaass. I loved that you called her that.
Anonymous
October 28th, 2016 - 12:48pmand I agree with everything on that list, some I feel we should have gotten already…
Ginger Winger
October 28th, 2016 - 12:52pmWe should’ve got a Jackie Tyler figure by now… Instead of the faceless granny or the editor!
Anonymous
October 28th, 2016 - 12:58pmAnd I also think that they should have made this wave with the red velvet 12 and Clara included. When (or if) they ever release them then series 9 will have already passed and series 10 would have aired. I hope they wont just move onto series 10 figs and make AsBill and a s10 Dr without making the series 9 figures first.
Ginger Winger
October 28th, 2016 - 1:03pmYeah, as we still don’t have a proper Clara figure… I am glad that they’ve now updated his sonic screwdriver although he didn’t get it until the end of Hell Bent & The Husbands of River Song when he was wearing his red velvet jacket.
Anonymous
October 28th, 2016 - 1:06pmThat’s what also confuses me. They have given him a new sonic so they have to at least have a red velvet Capaldi in the works? And they can’t just leave us with that bad Clara figure from the last wave, surely they realize that.
Cyberman Bill
October 28th, 2016 - 11:52amEveryone knows that this was the hint picture right? Zoom in on the leg and you all can see the “face”
WouldYouLikeAJellyBaby?
October 28th, 2016 - 11:57amIts Xoanon from The Face of Evil!
Cyberman Bill
October 28th, 2016 - 12:02pmI knew that “face” was just an optical illusion and had nothing to do with this figure! Although it kinda looks like Groot from GOTG so maybe the Doctor will be meeting the Guardians next season. Lol
The Outcast
October 28th, 2016 - 12:22pmOhhhh. Still doesn’t explain why they told us to wait for the third to announce this variant though.
Also if anyone is wondering, I think the ‘cancelled’ figure was Bill and she will be released April time next year to coincide with the new series. It would explain why they had to cancel it (would have been announced to early for its release).
Though that is just a theory, I think its plausible and really hope this is the case, cause the best way to get people interested in your product is to release it exactly when the show is airing.
Cyberman Bill
October 28th, 2016 - 7:25pmI don’t think it was Bill. They would need a minumum of almost a year to sculpt and prototype and the. Deliver. There hasn’t been enough time for a Bill figure in my opinion
booboo
October 28th, 2016 - 7:36pm6 months
they got the 11th doctor in the shops straight after the 11th hour aired, love to see them do that again
Dalek Sec
October 29th, 2016 - 1:11pmMaybe they could release a Bill/12th Doctor in velvet coat two pack when series 10 or the Christmas special airs. Its unlikely, but it’d make lots of sense.
AlexanderOP
October 30th, 2016 - 1:29amThat’s a blast from the past Booboo, I remember watching the Eleventh hour saturday then going into Toysrus monday to get the new two pack figures of 11 AND the new sonic.
That was brilliant.
They even had the new Sonic toy up for pre-order pretty much right after the episode aired too If I remember rightly.
The real master
October 28th, 2016 - 10:15amOut of these two variants, which do you think I should get?
Doctor 909
October 28th, 2016 - 10:44amPersonally I prefer this one, as I find that the t-shirt looks a bit tacky and prefer the darker colours on this one. But it’s really up to you
Anonymous
October 28th, 2016 - 12:49pmPersonally, I’d get this one myself. But yeah, it’s ultimately your choice.
The real master
October 28th, 2016 - 3:27pmProbably this one
The Outcast
October 28th, 2016 - 1:30amThis is a very nice variant. I think this was meant to be the forth reveal from what I can see on their twitter. Will there be a fifth reveal or is there something I’m missing?
Cyberman Bill
October 28th, 2016 - 1:35amNo more reveals. The other has been cancelled. This is it?
The Outcast
October 28th, 2016 - 1:38amYeah I now know that. I think it was Bill, but they had to delay it as she hasn’t technically appeared in the show. That is just some wild speculation though, and probably wasn’t what happened. At least we got this nice variant.
CharlieMars
October 28th, 2016 - 1:28amCan someone tell me what stories both these new 12th Doctor figures are from?
Which episodes did he wear these costumes in? Sorry if this has already been asked!
Both figures look great btw can’t wait to get my hands on one or both
T4RD1S
October 28th, 2016 - 1:58amThe first was from The Girl Who Died, and I’m pretty sure this variant is from Last Christmas
CG
October 28th, 2016 - 2:57amYes that’s right, even a varient of this costume without the hoody has been used quite a few times. Personally I think this one is the best 12th doctor so far
Mr Sandman
October 28th, 2016 - 7:23amLast Christmas, Under the Lake / Before the Flood, The Woman Who Lived, The Zygon Invasion / The Zygon Inversion and Sleep No More have the jumper and hoody combo.
The Living Shadow
October 28th, 2016 - 9:45amI think this one is the under the lake/before the flood look, as the hoodie has a slight green tinge to it, and two zips. I’m sure it could stand in for any of the episodes which Mr Sandman named above though.
CharlieMars
October 28th, 2016 - 6:25pmIs the Girl Who Died the only story the other figure’s costume was used?
Ryan Croughan
October 28th, 2016 - 1:21amSo… If this is the ‘last’ announcement, when can we expect news of them available for purchase, and do we know for sure yet if they’re coming to the UK?
booboo
October 28th, 2016 - 7:28amits been said end of DEC for the 10th tux and Jan/Feb for the 1st 12th, nothing on this one yet so sometime away

RORY DOCTOR RIVER POND
October 28th, 2016 - 12:29amwhy would the 4th have been cancelled?
Anonymous
October 28th, 2016 - 12:50pmMaybe (and I hate to admit it) it was a figure from series 10 such as Bill that they can’t show us yet. Or maybe it was another 12 variant, which if it was I don’t blame them.
RORY DOCTOR RIVER POND
October 28th, 2016 - 12:21amAw it’s a shame it was cancelled… couldn’t they just show us anyway?
100,000BC
October 28th, 2016 - 12:13amLet’s face it, this is a brilliant turnout:
3 new figures
Plus brilliant variants and rereleases in the 13 Doctors set and B&M sets.
Yes I know that in 2007 we might have got a 12/Kate/Osgood/Zygon box, a 12/Missy/Clara/TARDIS box set, a TARDIS interior and a 12/Davros/2 Daleks box set plus individual figures from each episode in the series but sadly it’s not 2007 any more, and we don’t have Woolworths or adequate demand for the product so it’s good at least to get new companions, doctors and rereleases of things we might have missed a few years ago.
Doctor
October 27th, 2016 - 11:59pmI can understand some peoples frustration but like others have said, this line is practically dead. ANYTHING is a blessing and I happen to think these two 12 variants are awesome. I’ll be grabbing one of each soon as I can.
I like to think the more we support the line through repaints and things the more likely we are to see new stuff but let’s face it, times are tough out there…
Judoon Master
October 27th, 2016 - 11:44pmI was hoping for a new River so disappointed
Jordan Scott
October 27th, 2016 - 11:31pmI love the figure, I’m just really upset about the last one being cancelled. 🙁
Part Gollum Part Time Lord
October 27th, 2016 - 10:50pmReally like the two 12 variants, just slightly disappointing that we probably won’t get a good Clara for a while, but theres no real reason to complain with these three figures (not gonna mention the tardis but its great news for those who didnt get it first time round!)
WouldYouLikeAJellyBaby?
October 27th, 2016 - 10:55pmI don’t think complaining is the answer. Think of it this way, at the beginning of the year we had hardly any Series 9 merchandise and now we do in the form of two new Twelfth Doctor variants which look great. We could have easily got nothing this year because of the hiatus but thanks to CO and UT they have been generous and made two new variants and a figure we have wanted for a number of years now.
Dalekparadigm2
October 27th, 2016 - 11:07pmWe also got that repainted of Missy from S9 openers.
Anonymous
October 28th, 2016 - 12:53pmYeah, I have to agree. I’m a bit sad we didn’t get another new item apart from the 12th Dr, but Maybe we’ll get a good red velvet Dr and new Clara when they release the next wave? Apart from that this figure is really detailed and probably worth getting.
Mr Sandman
October 27th, 2016 - 10:36pmAha, my favourite Twelfth Doctor costume variant (and one of my favourite Doctor costumes overall!), so this is an absolute must have whenever it inevitably surfaces in the UK. Helps that it looks great too; makes for a better toy than I’d initially imagined.
I like the inclusion of the new sonic screwdriver too; makes it fit in with the Titan comics.
WouldYouLikeAJellyBaby?
October 27th, 2016 - 10:51pmThis variant just so happens to be from my favourite two-parter in Series 9 so I’m excited to be getting it, even if its just a repaint. I thought there was a reason why that was included, CO and UT seem to be producing variants from TITAN Comics recently. The Ninth Doctor variant from the Thirteen Doctors set has the exact same coloured jumper as on various front covers released and it also has the dame coloured trousers as well.
Ian
October 27th, 2016 - 10:14pmI just hope its not like last year and release four variants.
Booboo is the classic line dead then?
Cyberman Bill
October 27th, 2016 - 9:47pmI love this figure! I wasn’t expecting anything grand on the reveal. I collect all things Doctor Who so I will buy 2 of these. I’m very happy we still get new figures. Would people rather we have nothing at all? This is a blessing cause just a few years ago this line was dead and here we are getting new products. I for one am excited
WouldYouLikeAJellyBaby?
October 27th, 2016 - 9:55pmI agree, there was no way we were going to get half of the suggestions people were coming up with but I knew that we would get this so I wasn’t disappointed. I really like this figure, its my favourite of the two variants of the Twelfth Doctor in hoodie and is better than any of the figures we got of him last year. I am excited too and can’t wait to own both variants along with the Tenth Doctor in tuxedo figure.
ME
October 27th, 2016 - 10:48pmI don’t actually think people are disappointed by this figure, from what I’ve read, this would have actually been the 5th announcement and it was the fourth figure/announcement that was cancelled and I think people are more upset with the fact that it’s been cancelled and they’re now left with a repaint when they think that they’re was a chance for a new figure the way UTa teased it. But I agree with you guys, I’m very excited for the three new Doctor figures!

October 28th, 2016 - 8:50amYeah like the Magicians apprentice, The woman who lived or the start of face the raven. I really wanted a velvet 12th dr from face the raven. heaven sent, hell bent and Husbands of river song
The real master
October 27th, 2016 - 9:00pmAre you sure it was the 4th figure and not the announcement for this particular figure that was cancelled. Remember we weren’t supposed to see this till the 3rd of November. Maybe they just decided to reveal it early.
Cyberman Bill
October 27th, 2016 - 9:43pmYes. The last figure was cancelled. That’s it. No others for this series

October 27th, 2016 - 9:56pmaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!!!!!! i’m sick to the backbone of CO letting us down like this >:( what the hell is going on over there??????

October 27th, 2016 - 10:15pmThat’s what I was thinking. I wish they’d stop messing around over there.
WouldYouLikeAJellyBaby?
October 27th, 2016 - 10:15pmSo getting a new Twelfth Doctor in a hoodie with not one but two new variants to choose from is a let down? That is nothing, how about last year when they gave us four variants of him in different coloured shirts where the vast majority were inaccurate. The purple shirt variant was supposed to be burgandy like in Robot of Sherwood and it wasn’t, the black shirt variant was supposed to be very dark blue as seen in Time Heist, (this was messed up twice as the variant in the Thirteen Doctors set is still inacurrate) the Polka dot variant from Kill the Moon’s polka dots were way too big and of course the infamous Twelfth Doctor in white shirt variant had no cardigan or waistcoat.
Anonymous
October 27th, 2016 - 10:24pmYes, the variants of the 12 doctors seris 8 outfits were shockingly bad last wave, and so was the other figures too, but I think what we mean is we don’t want to constantly get repaints of the same figure when there are plenty more figures people want and have been asking for. Especially series 9 stuff. Yeah, this is from series 9 but what about monsters or updated companions, cough cough* blue ozwin* cough cough.
WouldYouLikeAJellyBaby?
October 27th, 2016 - 10:30pmI’m happy someone agrees with me on the Twelfth Doctor variants, the best figure released last year was the Night of the Doctor Eighth Doctor without a doubt. I mean don’t get me wrong I would really like some new monsters but we won’t get any unless we buy what CO and UT release. I’m sure they will get round to releasing them eventually but I think their main aim is to release what would be popular in the US and at the moment doctor variants seem to be very good sellers.
WouldYouLikeAJellyBaby?
October 27th, 2016 - 8:52pmThis could very easily be repainted into a Ghost Twelfth Doctor from the end of Under the Lake and in Before the Flood.
Anonymous
October 27th, 2016 - 10:25pmThat would be a repaint worthwhile.
The real master
October 27th, 2016 - 8:39pmIf the last figure has been cancelled, then it was possible it was just a re-release, I would hope they’d wouldn’t scrap a new figure. Or maybe it’s just a mix up, this figure wasn’t supposed to be revealed till next week, maybe this is what they are talking about, we can only hope.
Anonymous
October 27th, 2016 - 8:48pmIt would be nice for this to be the cancelled figure and for us to get something new that we havent seen before. I think so many people are disappointed about this (including me) because it technically something we’be seen before, just different paint on it.
Anonymous
October 27th, 2016 - 8:24pmWait, the fourth REVEAL has been cancelled, could that mean the figure might still happen, just without any teaser/reveal/warning?
Probably not, but I can dream…
Tom Baker Plush
October 27th, 2016 - 8:25pmI have a suspicion it was Bill, but due to her not officially being in the series yet the BBC declined making the figure a licensed product, meaning we will have to wait for next year for the BBC to approve it
Anonymous
October 27th, 2016 - 8:28pmMaybe, but I highly doubt it, sadly. I still want to know what we could have gotten though and also why it was cancelled in the first place.

October 27th, 2016 - 9:39pmI have a feeling it was just another 12 repaint
