September 28th, 2016 - 12:32pmMine just arrived! What a beaut!
AngryDrashig
September 28th, 2016 - 12:59pmReally I didn’t even know you could order it yet…..got any photos please ?? Are you in the USA ?
booboo
September 28th, 2016 - 1:10pmWhere did you order it from?
Dav
September 28th, 2016 - 1:16pmgot it directly from Eaglemoss (ordered it on the 17th I think)
One of the Eaglemoss team tweeted me with a crypic message;
https://twitter.com/Hero_Collector/status/781103427275423744
any ideas what it could mean?
booboo
September 28th, 2016 - 1:20pmNo idea I asked for more info but they never replied no PR on this at all
Have they sorted the inaccuracies ?
Dav
September 28th, 2016 - 1:22pmAt work just now so not opened it yet, I’ll send some pics when I get home
AngryDrashig
September 28th, 2016 - 1:29pmInteresting !! How long has this been on the eaglemoss site
https://shop.eaglemoss.com/doctor-who-figurines-collection/the-mega-bronze-dalek-figure
I normally check every few days (usually access the star trek star ships via the dr who pages) and never noticed this… its not been announced with very much ceremony. Looks like its still got that odd looking gun stick…..
AngryDrashig
September 28th, 2016 - 1:34pmYou ordering one booboo ? Be interesting to see how it compares with the remote control dalek. I cant afford not with a plethora of Harrops stuff due in November.
booboo
September 28th, 2016 - 1:37pmNo won’t get one
To be honest I don’t buy much now
AngryDrashig
September 28th, 2016 - 1:51pmFew pics of it on that page Dav gave a link…whats Hero collectors link with eaglemoss I always took them for a fan run organisation who i get emails off for some reason….
booboo
September 28th, 2016 - 2:01pmI thought hero collectors was run by eaglemoss
AngryDrashig
September 28th, 2016 - 2:15pmMaybe they are I must have clicked something somewhere to get their emails…..not usually anything I haven’t seen somewhere else first….
AngryDrashig
September 28th, 2016 - 2:16pmOddly not much about this dalek yet …..nothing memorable anyway.
Dav McKenzie
September 28th, 2016 - 8:36pmYeah Hero collector are part of eaglemoss; https://twitter.com/Hero_Collector/status/781118705044492288
Here’s a pic of my dalek that I opened when I got home (with his normal sized friend); https://twitter.com/Hero_Collector/status/781118705044492288
AngryDrashig
September 4th, 2016 - 1:39pmA decent gunstick on the release model would be nice.
AngryDrashig
September 3rd, 2016 - 1:12amI see Eaglemoss are giving 30% of the star trek stuff to us fans…. to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary. Hope we get the same offer here . I might be persuaded to buy a few extra which didnt interest me at full price.
AngryDrashig
September 2nd, 2016 - 10:09pmHave they released any more up to date info on this yet ? Seems to have been a fair bit of talk about it for quite a while but nothing definite about it or the series (?) its the first one of I wonder if the plan is to compete with Harrops ??
booboo
September 3rd, 2016 - 7:30amnothing, always amazes me these things go up for order and they dont want to tell you anything about it
I’m surprised the BBC have licensed two such similar products especially in such a niche market.
there is only so much money to go round and it far to stretched as it is.
DalekFan
August 20th, 2016 - 11:58amThe magazine, while part of the Doctor Who Figurine Collection, is a completely standalone issue.
The figurine is based on a new sculpt.
I like the idea of advertising to subscribers first. That seems very fair. But how long should Eaglemoss wait for replies? Time is money. The logistics of waiting (and I agree that it seems like good manners) make me think the price would go up.
Cyberman Bill
August 3rd, 2016 - 1:33amWhy is everyone saying that it’s overpriced? It’s in the same price range as many statues the same size and even smaller. I happen to like it. I ordered it. If you don’t like it, don’t buy it.. I happen to think it’s worth the money. I have a lot of Doctor Who statutes that I have paid just as much or even more for. To me, this makes another great addition to my Dalek collection.
Anonymous
August 4th, 2016 - 4:58pmBecause it’s ultimately part of the collection, comes with a magazine, etc. so it will annoy some completionists.
Cyberman Bill
August 4th, 2016 - 6:08pmYes but that doesn’t tell me why people think it’s over priced. It’s the same price as the 4th Doctor statue I have which is smaller and several others. People may be upset but to say it’s overpriced… I just think maybe it’s out of people’s price range. I’m a completist so I will get it.
Lets do Knitting
August 4th, 2016 - 6:10pmI don’t see this as remotely part of the collection, just a high end new line
Jordan Scott
August 5th, 2016 - 12:38amThe thing is, pretty much every piece of collectors’ merchandise is over priced, some of them are really good but companies know that they can charge what ever they like and people will still buy them! Eaglemoss just make small figurines for magazines and I know for a fact that this will just be an enlarged version of what they’ve already done (perhaps with a slightly improved paint job as it’s larger and easier to paint). The Weta Dalek statue was only £15 more than this when it was first released and that was well worth it’s money, probably the most detailed Dalek model ever – but Eaglemoss aren’t exactly Weta… And to me it does seem to be part of the collection considering that it’s a Doctor Who Figurine that comes with a magazine which will probably have the same design as the smaller scale collection!
7thwhovlogs
August 1st, 2016 - 1:36pmI’d get this if it weren’t so expensive. Especially when the CO toys are more accurate
booboo
August 1st, 2016 - 1:38pm“image not final “
7thwhovlogs
August 1st, 2016 - 1:40pmYeah but different will it be? I doubt the sculpt will be different.
booboo
August 1st, 2016 - 1:50pmthis just looks like a render of the small figurine model to me, until they show a picture of the actual Dalek we cant judge
Cyberman Bill
August 1st, 2016 - 6:16pmHe showed a picture earlier on his Twitter. Look at that one
booboo
August 1st, 2016 - 6:55pmlooks just the same, really need to see a production sample, this needs to be 100%
Aries57
August 2nd, 2016 - 10:41pmDo we really need a larger scale version of this? Eagle Moss would be better off supplying Fans with a full set of Companions. If this figure is anything to go by its just a larger scale version of what is already out seems pointless.
booboo
August 2nd, 2016 - 10:56pmseparate range, character made 5″ Daleks as well as 12″ and 18″ Daleks dont see why Eaglemoss cant do the same if they think there is a market
this doesn’t effect anything as far as the figurine collection goes
AngryDrashig
August 3rd, 2016 - 12:55pmFull set of companions. No thanks they have trouble getting the Doctors likeness right let alone companions. The day they start is the day my subscription ends. There’s a mass of untouched classic monsters and aliens to do before they start on a mass of figures which wont look anything like. There are still to many new who aliens.
Anonymous
August 3rd, 2016 - 6:26pmThey’ve already said companions are their intention post-Masters around issue 150.

August 1st, 2016 - 12:49pm“Figure Collection Magazine Special #1 Mega Dalek”
does that mean we can subscribe, it is way over priced and frankly it will not sell
booboo
August 1st, 2016 - 12:53pmthere no PR that i can see
It looks expensive but on a par with statues given the price/size ratio
KEVIN BUNKER
August 1st, 2016 - 10:56amAlthough I’m not fussed about getting the more modern Dalek’s, I’d be happy to see the older Dalek’s made in this new line. Think I’ll order this one though & see how it turns out.
Anonymous
August 1st, 2016 - 10:19amSo…just to be clear, this is not connected to the Magazine figurine collection – it just happens to be made buy the same people…?
booboo
August 1st, 2016 - 10:29amyou wouldn’t think so if you read the description and title on FP
I can only see this a separate high end line and there is no way they are just going to send these out to subscribers of the figurine collection.
Problem is the lack of PR as per usual.
Anonymous
August 1st, 2016 - 2:07pmYeah…imagine that…£85 coming out of you bank account.
prototype dalek
August 1st, 2016 - 10:01amWow £85 for UK ordering, that is quite pricey, what do you think booboo?
booboo
August 1st, 2016 - 10:10amwell its quite big and i suppose price wise its on par with similar products on size / price ratio
its going to have to be 100% spot on though
prototype dalek
August 1st, 2016 - 10:14amTrue and I am sure it will have quite a bit of weight to it as well.
I agree, When pictures get released on the internet of people that have bought it that will be the best time to see how good and accurate it is, and then see if I want it considering the amount of money it costs.
Jordan Scott
August 1st, 2016 - 2:36pmIf it’s 100% accurate then I may consider getting it, but so far I don’t think any Dalek has been completely accurate, so we’ll just have to see…
prototype dalek
August 2nd, 2016 - 8:11amSpecial #4 Dalek sec was quite good and accurate as well as the revelation white dalek
Jordan Scott
August 2nd, 2016 - 7:49pmYes some of them are a lot better than others! The Paradigm Dalek was horribly inaccurate unfortunately, the sculpt was spot on but the paint was all just wrong!
KORSAIR
July 31st, 2016 - 12:26pmI’ve no interest in this at all, I’m content with the normal sized figurine collection plus I’ve got quite a few big Daleks already. I honestly can’t see these selling too well at that price.
Ste
July 31st, 2016 - 7:05amFor that price you would want the dome to be accurate
JRT!
August 1st, 2016 - 10:05amHow is it not accurate? Just curious.
Anonymous
August 1st, 2016 - 10:48amthe vertical lines run all the way down and it is missing the squares at the front near the cowl and possibly at back as can’t be seen
ste
August 1st, 2016 - 1:03pmthere is a horizontal indent all the way around and missing inset boxes
Anonymous
July 30th, 2016 - 10:43pmNot sure about this, like the idea of the statute, seems a bit strange it comes with a magazine, at $124.99, that with be expensive to get all the collection, depending how often they come out and how many there is. Also although eaglemoss have got alot better with the detailing, they can be a bit hit and miss, hopefully as these are more expensive they won’t be off with the paint and the mouldings.
DoctorWhoFan101
July 30th, 2016 - 8:58pmWoah!! $124.99!!
Darren
July 30th, 2016 - 7:42pmAre we talking maybe 1/6 scale here, similar to the big chief figures sizes?
The Twelfth Doctor
July 30th, 2016 - 8:10pmNo, it’s only a few inches taller than the 5″ figures.
Darren
July 30th, 2016 - 8:23pmSo more like the height of the TARDIS’s that go with the 5 inch figures
The super whovian
July 30th, 2016 - 1:51pmWill it be in scale with the Robert Harrop figurines
booboo
July 30th, 2016 - 1:55pmno bigger
prototype dalek
July 30th, 2016 - 1:30pmI really want this, hopefully it will be in the UK not just US
booboo
July 30th, 2016 - 1:32pmno info available at the moment on UK it seems
prototype dalek
July 31st, 2016 - 12:47pmI will keep my fingers crossed then
Dominc
July 30th, 2016 - 1:14pmWill you be able to buy it in the UK and how much will it cost
booboo
July 30th, 2016 - 1:21pmtrying to find out, no response yet
Jordan Scott
July 30th, 2016 - 12:17pmI was hoping that this would be a one off subscriber dalek, I don’t think this is a very good idea…
Trenzalore
July 30th, 2016 - 11:54amAre they just gonna send this to subscribers or will they ask if you want it? It looks a bit too expensive so I’ll be annoyed if they just take the money.
Loosing a lot if room to this collection, they should send out subscriber special shelving units haha
booboo
July 30th, 2016 - 11:58amnow way will they just send this out as people would not have agreed to it
This looks like a separate high end line to me
just hope there is some verity and they dont just cover old ground
Trenzalore
July 30th, 2016 - 12:12pmI think they should offer it to subscribers before everyone else – even though I wont be buying, its just good manners.
In my opinion they should try doing something different with Daleks. I’m bored of the same bronze Daleks. I loved that union jack Dalek, something more like that, for example with the Olympics coming up, an Olympic themed Dalek. That way a lot of people who don’t buy Daleks might if its got a relevant theme.
doctor who fan 11
July 30th, 2016 - 1:40pmI do not want this but I feel the manners between subscribers and sellers for this collection has rapidly gone down. they used to show us when a special is coming out and what is in it but for me those emails stopped on i think the beast
Trenzalore
July 30th, 2016 - 2:19pmYeah me too and when there’s a problem its not easy to get it solved quickly or simply.
The Werewolf
July 30th, 2016 - 11:02amIf this was just the one off, I probably would have gotten it, but I’m not starting a super-sized, super-expensive line, if I wanted that I’d go for Robert Harrops, I will stick to the smaller figurines I think.
Anonymous
July 30th, 2016 - 10:08amNo thanks! If they start off with 10 designs & carry on say to 30 figurines (Not saying that they would) this would get very expensive very quickly. Think this is one for high-end collector’s only.
Anonymous
July 30th, 2016 - 9:49amHow big is it compared to thoes large remote control daleks that came out a while back?
booboo
July 30th, 2016 - 10:53am3-4 inches smaller but this is still pretty big
doctor who fan 11
July 30th, 2016 - 9:04amif your opted in for specials they wont send this will they because I rather stick to the 1:21 scale
booboo
July 30th, 2016 - 9:06ami doubt that, this is separate line
doctor who fan 11
July 30th, 2016 - 9:58amok thanks
doctor who fan 11
July 30th, 2016 - 8:25amdoes anyone know the price of this or if it is free too subscribers
booboo
July 30th, 2016 - 8:33amdefinitely not free, nothing to do with the figurine collection as such
its looks like a new line of individual statutes
tweeted Ben Robinson to see if he can give more info
Gareth Pugh
July 30th, 2016 - 8:43amWell, the US price of $125 would roughly translate to around £90-ish. Of course, Eaglemoss’s RRP may not be a ‘straight’ price conversion from the US price, it could be more or less than the level equivalent.
booboo
July 30th, 2016 - 8:48amthe figurines are much more expensive in the states, about £11, so I’m hoping this will be a bit cheaper
