Missy (S9 Purple Outfit) Missy (The Master) is a Time Lady and like the Doctor, she’s from the planet Gallifrey in the constellation of Kasterborous. The two were friends in their youth and both chose to ignore their people’s policy of non-intervention with other species, but unlike the Doctor, Missy chose to travel the universe causing chaos and revelling in wickedness on an epic scale.
Throughout all their encounters they usually showed a respect towards each other and on the occasions when they were forced to work as a team it was clear they made terrific allies. These two rogue Time Lords – so different but so very similar – facing the world on their terms with gusto and enormous talent.
S9 Purple outfit Missy is presented in Underground Toys collector box packaging.

June 3rd, 2016 - 2:48pmDid it have a tear down the back like FP sent me?
Anonymous
June 3rd, 2016 - 4:15pmNo, it didn’t! It’s not particularly well packaged though as only one side is protected.
It is a good looking figure though, but I do prefer the darker purple version.
Is your figure intact? Was it just the box that was damaged?
Anonymous
June 3rd, 2016 - 7:23pmJust the back of the box. But I think the red on the scanner seem’s to be darker as well.
Greg
June 3rd, 2016 - 8:33pmYou should get them to replace it. You’ve paid for a mint figure.
Anonymous
June 3rd, 2016 - 11:10pmContacted them for a Return. It’s a Collector’s Figure for heaven’s sake! Why send me a damaged one? Plus, that’s not the first time they have done that either.
Greg
June 3rd, 2016 - 11:52pmIt’s annoying, but at least they will sort the problem out.
But, yes – they should check for any damage before sending them out.
Anonymous
June 4th, 2016 - 12:53pmTrue & at least I will get a replacement. Other companies have often never replied to me or tried to fob me off.

Masterdoctorten
June 2nd, 2016 - 9:55pmThat’s helpful. They are both purple.
Anonymous
June 3rd, 2016 - 9:19amI think he was speaking about the purple versions instead of the black because there are 3 missy figures in total but only two of them have different features. The series 9 missy is just a repainted purple missy figure whereas the black missy has much more noticeable differences such as head sculpt and minor dress differences. I agree with him because I prefer the purple sculpt but I can’t make a decision on the series 8 or series 9 purple missy figure because I don’t own the series 9 figure yet, but from the smaller extra details such as the pencil lining and it being from the magicians apprentice/witches familiar I think I will prefer this one.
Greg
June 1st, 2016 - 4:38pmIt looks like dispatch emails are starting to be sent out. I just received my dispatch email this afternoon.
I’m really looking forward to receiving this figure. I know it’s not completely accurate, but we’re getting 5 inch figures again! I’m happy to buy these variants in the hope that it’ll help to get some exciting new figures (like the 8th doctor).

June 1st, 2016 - 3:21pmJust received my dispatch email from FP today. Looking forward to it turning up in a couple of day’s time.

May 30th, 2016 - 11:46pmSeriously, people!?
Does it have to be spelled out every damn time? Yes, Character re-release figures. They have to. Making sculpts for figures is incredibly expensive so they either have to release it once but make it super expensive or release it several times but at a smaller price. At least with this purple Missy, they have actually made changes to it. Many other re-releases are exactly the same. (the black Missy, Rose & K9, Police Amy, etc.) It’s all well and good for us to say, “ooh! Why don’t they make this character or that monster?” Probably because it’s far too expensive or doesn’t have re-release value. Making money from re-used sculpts is how they make money for new ones. Do you think we’d have got NotD 8th Doctor if they’d only done one 12th Doctor?
DoctorSong2016
May 31st, 2016 - 12:08amThank you, just thank you, you have written the paragraph I couldn’t be bothered to write. They complain no matter what we get though, nothing is ever enough and it isn’t COs fault, they are trying to do what they can but as usual, then fans are ungrateful.
wholords2
May 31st, 2016 - 8:53amBut then if they were trying to make a “series 9” missy, they could of atleast put the head from the black dress version on it
booboo
May 31st, 2016 - 8:58amwe dont know what happens behind the scenes
the head from the black one might have been in a different tooling block
some things are just not economically viable to do
making figures and swapping parts around is not as simple as some people think
Mad Psientist
June 1st, 2016 - 4:54pmIf you don’t like it, then don’t buy it.
That’s increasingly my response to CO’s output nowadays.
Missy
May 30th, 2016 - 7:26pmLove it 😀

May 29th, 2016 - 12:52pmHi booboo is the war doctor on any of the lists? And could you add the double set with the doctor and Oswin Oswald? Thanks
booboo
May 29th, 2016 - 2:01pmAt the moment we have just done what is being sold under collectors series but hopefully we will work back through to include others it’s a big job
M
May 29th, 2016 - 9:17pmCool thank you.
The Living Shadow
May 29th, 2016 - 10:54amI think they should’ve repainted the black dress varient, as then we could get the more accurate head sculpt, and the lapel piping would be more accurate, as if you look at her outfit from series 9, you’ll see that the lapel piping is thinner and less Victorian era, like on her black dress outfit… A tiny detail, but it would’ve looked a little more accurate!
Matt young
May 28th, 2016 - 10:24pmDoes she wear that hat in Series 9? I have a feeling she doesn’t. If it has been that body with the hat less head I might have been interested by I find CO so lazy and unimaginative. How many great monsters have there been over series 8 and 9 and where are those figures? If all they are going to release are tweaked figures perhaps they could get it right.
Tom
May 28th, 2016 - 11:30pmHi Matt I don’t know if you feel the same but I am desperate for a Fisher King figure
Mackenzie decaux
May 29th, 2016 - 8:49amHi matt I find this missy figure good but I do agree with you. They could of made other figures such as ashilder or a Clara that Is wearing her actual costume unlike the Clara figure released.

May 30th, 2016 - 12:20pmTom would love a Fisher King figure. What a brilliant design! It would surely fly off the shelves! The monsters are surely the big sellers! But all we get are the people in silly numbers of variants and they are not being made because that’s what collectors want…..
Anonymous
May 28th, 2016 - 3:44pmThe fact they did this gives me hope that they’ll do it for 12th Doctor too, because they’d be mad if didn’t, just paint his jacket his red, easy! And I wouldn’t be too fussed about him not coming with a waist coat, cause he did wear it without. And honestly, it didn’t bother me that he didn’t come with a waist coat on the original, though I did buy an extra and give him one…

May 28th, 2016 - 1:37pmThe face sculpt is still rubbish.

June 24th, 2016 - 8:39pmNo its not
Exterminator
May 28th, 2016 - 10:30amWhat’s the point of character options doing an ‘online exclusive’ if they’re just going to release it anyway and at a cheaper price?
Talk about milking it for every penny.
Exterminator
May 28th, 2016 - 10:33amYes I realise it’s a different shade of purple! But so what! The black missy is identical and were supposed to be exclusive mail away only figures hence the £19.99 price tag!
Exterminator
May 28th, 2016 - 10:44amThey’ll probably do it again with Bill now that we’ve seen her and the costume, what’s the betting character are already sculpting an ‘online exclusive’ figure!
Exterminator
May 28th, 2016 - 10:47amNew figures and variants are always a good thing, but as a collector I like figures to be limited edition and rare. When they produce more of a particular figure it reduces the value of the original. Just look at the dalek collectors set 2 which used to be rarer than hens teeth!
booboo
May 28th, 2016 - 11:46amI always thought it was the bespoke packaging that was the exclusive part to these to be honest
the thing is most people knew the exact same purple Missy was available in the USA in STD packaging and at a cheaper price so it should come as no surprise they have done the same as the Black one.
If anyone wants to take it up with Character however i would be interested to know what they say
Anonymous
May 30th, 2016 - 11:15pmI too would be very interested in what Character would have to say on this? Especially since they never sold-out of either figure as on online exclusive.

May 28th, 2016 - 12:08amYes! I’m soooo glad I waited!
Timelordds
May 27th, 2016 - 9:13pmIt looks awesome but they should of made her face more accurately without the hat, her series 9 hairstyle and vortex manipulator otherwise its not really season 9 is it.
Nathan
May 27th, 2016 - 8:00pmCan you still swap the head with this one? I know it’s only really a reprint but still…
booboo
May 27th, 2016 - 8:15pmyes you can
Nathan
May 27th, 2016 - 8:33pmThat’s good. Thanks 🙂

May 27th, 2016 - 7:22pmEh, might as well pick one up, just got money from my birthday after all.

May 27th, 2016 - 7:28pmActually I change my mind. For that shipping price? Hell Nah!

May 28th, 2016 - 11:02amhi, do you know what the postage cost is?
booboo
May 28th, 2016 - 11:15amUK is £3.50
Anonymous
May 27th, 2016 - 7:07pmBooboo do you think this is a sign for a new wave of five inch figures?
booboo
May 27th, 2016 - 7:08pmhonestly dont know, but if there is nothing new on the horizon that’s a bit worrying
Fredfez
May 27th, 2016 - 7:06pmIs this available in shops or can you only get this online boo boo?
booboo
May 27th, 2016 - 7:07pmI’m sure the FPi shops will get some
Fredfez
May 28th, 2016 - 10:43amthank you for answering
Nobody in Particular
May 27th, 2016 - 6:05pmWould it have killed them to make a slightly different head sculpt without the hat, or even just given her the smiling head? At least that way she’d be semi-accurate
_doctorwho_figures_
May 27th, 2016 - 6:50pmAgreed
the doctor
May 27th, 2016 - 5:54pmis this this exclusive to fp or will we see it warming Tru shelves?

May 27th, 2016 - 5:34pmWhy do I feel like I need to buy this?
_doctorwho_figures_
May 27th, 2016 - 5:34pmThis is just lazy, they should have given it a new head sculpt. She never wore a hat in series 9.
booboo
May 27th, 2016 - 5:35pmnever worth the extra cost, thought people would have got that by now
_doctorwho_figures_
May 27th, 2016 - 5:47pmYeah, thought it would be for cost reasons. But as collectors we want things as accurate as possible. Im not complaining about the body though, the new paint looks good.

DoctorOsgoodTARDIS
May 27th, 2016 - 5:14pmBooboo this one and the black one from forbidden planet are £5 cheaper than CO is this because they are not in the exclusive packaging or is the quality different?
booboo
May 27th, 2016 - 5:15pmblack figure is identical just standard packaging
DoctorOsgoodTARDIS
May 27th, 2016 - 5:27pmAnd the only difference with the purple one is that it is a lighter colour?

May 27th, 2016 - 5:28pmno I have listed the differences and you can clearly see them in the comparison photos
