      The situation is this – Wave one consists of The Doctor with Stetson, 2 silents, Nephew and Amelia, pictures of them have been seen in Argos store rooms.The Argos catalogue is out Saturday.I will be very surprised if we cant buy them then and if we cant i will ask Character myself. That is all the accurate info that is currently available in the UK.

      The pictures above are from Australia who seem to have has a second wave consisting of the figures you see in the pictures. All these rumours of delays and figures not being right aren’t helping and to much miss information is being given

      Oh is it like a wlaking stick cause he had two left feet lol , wonder if the figure has one arm bigger than the other and two left feet

    So is this right? These figures are now out this Friday, and shouldn’t get delayed again. If this is true, I’m going to check all my local stores for them, I’ve wated so long!!!

      Thats the date at the moment, we do know Argos have them in there warehouses and the new catalogue is out on Saturday so if they have a quite a few you may be able to get them from there at least

    • The Last Centurion

      July 26th, 2011 - 12:05pm

      I have a feeling all of them will be out !
      SOOOO EXCITED !!!!!!!!!!

      I don’t want to be bother and people please dont scream at me but…there is a shop called nastalgia comics in birmingham who always have the doctor who stuff first and they say ‘apparently’ forbidden planet are delaying the figures again until the middle of august because of a figure they’re not happy with πŸ˜₯ I hope this is not true as we have waited a long, long time for these to come out.

      July 26th, 2011 - 12:09pm

      To many rumours , to much miss information

    • robot chicken

      July 26th, 2011 - 12:26pm

      to be honest it looks like forbidden planet are now the owners of the doctor who line as they pretty much have eveything and other retailers are left with zilch and get virtually no information until right before release. personally i think its disgusting

    • BOOBOO JR

      July 26th, 2011 - 12:44pm

      I’ll go to Argos at the weekend then, I’m going to try and get one of the two silence figures, but I’ll keep forgetting so will end up with loads!!!

    • Mels

      July 26th, 2011 - 2:03pm

      I was told by ABC Shop (Australian version of the BBC Shop) that we should be getting them to coincide with the DVD/Blu-ray release of Part 1 here.
      That’s 4th of August… so I’d be VERY suprised if you don’t have these figures in the UK by the end of this week.

      Also Ikon (our distributer) have told stores to expect them ‘any day now’ (I checked this with the eBay sellers too).

      There would have to be a major, last second delay and MASSIVE miscommunication between factory-suppliers-distributers (worldwide) for the figures not to show up.

      Oh yeah, at least all the shops near me just shove them on shelves!

      July 26th, 2011 - 5:45pm

      No they won’t. there’ll just all be silents on the shelves/hooks. Also people will end up with armies of silnts because they’ll forget buying them.

      we are hoping for the “announced” figures (Amelia, Nephew, 2 silent’s and Doctor with Stetson) on Friday

  • Anonymous

    July 26th, 2011 - 10:32am

    I’ve seen a few people asking why there are no Amelia or Nephew pictures. On the website there are two seperate assortments (one is wave 1 and the other presumably wave two).

    Wave one only has pictures of the figures, wave two has pictures of the packaging, and does not contain Nephew or Amelia.

    However, Amelia’s packaging can be seen if you can get pictures or videos from the Christmas in July event. The figure’s full title is “Amelia Pond from Series 5”.

      Agreed, the Doctors (mostly) and Silence are the ones I’m looking forward to the most (and Idris). The only thing that really bothers me about this set is that the Silence ‘skin’ looks a bit like marble lol. Still, I’m sure they’ll be fine in hand.

      The other ‘inaccuracies’ people have mentioned don’t really bother me. As long as I can plonk some new figures on my desk, I’m happy. πŸ˜€

      Are these actually for sale in Australia, i assume they are

    • Mels

      July 26th, 2011 - 10:08am

      There’s some on evilbay (unless the seller is telling a little white lie to get early sales), but they’re not in the shops yet. I think they’re probably going to be withheld (in the ABCShop at least) until the DVD/Blu-ray release of Season 6 Part 1 next Thursday (along with Season 3 of Merlin… FINALLY).

      I live on the ‘wrong’ side of Australia though, so if they’re available in the eastern states now, I won’t get them in my puddle of a town for at least another week…
