      Anyway do you have any guess when we will get a pic and Charecter would realese it in a wave and have you noticed like every wave has something from series 5 so you think the rory might be and if it is that would be a shame because i’d realy like the doctor’s wife rory.

    • booboo

      November 21st, 2011 - 9:12pm

      things seem to have altered with Charterer and images are being released at virtually the same time as the figures and there seems to few prototype figure images so if this carries on we will only see the image when it nearly here unless they decide to do an advanced press release which sometimes happens.

      I totally agree but it is really disappointing it won’t be out until next year. Anyhow I have made my custom Rory figure based on Let’s Kill Hitler outfit. Just has to do the number 8 on the left hand side of it’s jacket. I used the tenth doctor body and the masters head from the professor YANA double pack. I think it is petty awesome. Has anyone made a custom Rory? Please reply!

    About blinkin’ time! How long did that take them?! I’m sure mankind has actually evolved since we began adding Rory to our toy wishlists. And now the Ponds are (sort of) out of the series. Character is brilliant but they’re not the best at ‘timing’.

      I wouldn’t believe everything you read, we’ve already had several conflicting claims over the Ponds status on board the TARDIS, look at Karen Gillan.

      Amy Pond will only be popping up from time to time (according to Moffat)

      Amy will never pop up from time to time, Karen Gillan will leave before that happens (Karen Gillan)

      If Moffat has lied about the Pond’s appearance in the Christmas Special he’s covering something up, chances are they are back full time.

      the signing is organized by 2entartain and BBC worldwide who as far as DVD’s are concerned dont tell us anything , in fact they go out of there away to ignore us so we ignore them and besides we generally only report signings at independent small chain shops.

      That info came from another person 1st. strange they should be able to produce a Winston Churchill figure that wont look like him

    • Nicholas

      November 20th, 2011 - 9:48pm

      But it would be based on the actor so children will recognise him

    • booboo

      November 20th, 2011 - 9:53pm

      yes but what do they call it, i cant see how they can call it “Winston Churchill” Figure as it would look nothing like the real Winston Churchill who is a real person not fictional, they must have found a way around it if this is true

    • the ultimate character building fan 0001

      November 20th, 2011 - 10:02pm

      but children wont think about that theyll just like a new toy

    • booboo

      November 20th, 2011 - 10:05pm

      And that is precisely the problem, Children thinking that That Winston Churchill looks like the actor who played him not the real person

      November 20th, 2011 - 10:07pm

      i agree but it would be hard to do a real winston figure but is there deffanatly goning to be one?

      November 21st, 2011 - 7:04pm

      But surely the figure would be based off of the Doctor Who universe’s version of Winston Churchill not ours.

      Apparently the family have no problem with it.

    • booboo

      November 21st, 2011 - 7:12pm

      it the family are ok that’s fine,i thought the while reason we didn’t get historical figures was because of historical accuracy

    • Anonymous

      November 21st, 2011 - 7:16pm

      I think most of the problem was down to family permission as most of them still have estates that are still in full control of any rights (like Churchill or say Agatha Christie).

      50 years after death is the UK law, so it would be fine for say Charles Dickens or Van Gogh (although other rules likely apply for the royal family but perhaps not).

      The Time Warrior set was released months ago so its probably been and gone. I would suggest calling the store and asking if they are going to get anymore in stock. Failing that, order the set from the website (although you will spend £4-5 on P&P).
