May 28th, 2011 - 3:50pmYes! If it were like that, I’d buy it in an instant. I don’t want to pay for paper images.
booboo
May 31st, 2011 - 4:11pmI believe they are more than just paper, Mr fusion had said they are Lenticular which put a whole different perspective on it

kol
May 26th, 2011 - 3:13pmerm this is faqke.i saw it on combom.co.uk a few months ago..someone made a picture of a doctor who chess set..its not treal

May 26th, 2011 - 3:15pmIf its fake why is it on a reputable wholesalers website?
booboo

kol
May 26th, 2011 - 7:19pmit came up months ago.
booboo
May 26th, 2011 - 7:34pmIt was on one website months ago who couldn’t be bothered to reply to my enquiry about it therefore it wasn’t put on the site. now that more polite and helpful sites have it we have featured it but it was never fake
callumeales
May 26th, 2011 - 2:38pmthis looks so cheaply made its horrid and i bet u its 50 quid who would pay for that
Omega
May 26th, 2011 - 3:11pmIts about £30 but i know what you mean
Silence Will Fall
May 25th, 2011 - 9:18pmNot getting this as i think they could have gone a bit further than just stuck pictures of the characters on.
My main focus right now is on series 5-6 wave 1 and the Doctor Who monopoly
TC
May 25th, 2011 - 6:09pmI think this set looks a bit boring and may not be brilliantly made. They would have been better shaping the chess pieces to a character than just using pictures.

May 26th, 2011 - 7:44amRemember the feature page on the old Doctor Who chess set, well that was way better than this.

Black TARDIS
May 27th, 2011 - 2:42pmwhat they should do is have Character building figures instead of the pieces they’ve designed
