    Okay, so, these ARE in the U.S., right? That, and, does the lights come with the adapter? Because, I want these, and I don’t know if I have an adapter from the UK… Please tell me it comes with it! 😐

      These are available in the U.S., try looking in your local comic books store or book store. Our local comic book store has them in and I am about to by a few sets myself.

    I’m in the US. I’ve ordered these from a local comic store. This is what I’m told: The distributer allows the store to place an order but they (the distributor) has not received the product from the manufacturer. They can’t give a projected date either. So as far as I can see, while they are available for purchase, you can’t actually receive them from any vendors. If you’ve found a vendor actually shipping them, please let me know.

      I’d love some more Series 6 figures and get some for Series 7, but only if they’re 5″.

      Which sadly, it doesn’t look like they will 🙁

    Does the whole box light up?? Or does it shine through the windows, cus that would be a nice effect, but it depends on the quality of the plastic, anyone got them in hand?? What are they like?

      You could just buy a US to UK adapter for a couple of quid to fix the problem.

    As a BBC Franchise I know they are desperate to crack the US Market (Hence the episodes filmed in the States) but a lot of this merchandise seem’s to be available in the US only, then take’s quite a while to show up in the UK? (If at all!) These Christmas Treelights I really want same as the Nightlight!

      Be nice if they could actually say: “On this date Worldwide this will be released”…

      Unfortunately it’s a hopeless dream!

      The BBTS also doesn’t except Paypal for Pre-Orders either!

    • The12thDoctor

      August 25th, 2012 - 5:25pm

      yes i know BBTS doesn’t accept pay pal :/ they also have series 3 for pre-order i plan on getting 2-3 packs

    • Radburn

      August 26th, 2012 - 1:07pm

      Costs for the Tardis Treelights work out about £13 a pack, but of course the cheapest postage to the UK is about £17. I’m hoping Santa decides to release this in the UK at the same time?

    • JRT

      August 28th, 2012 - 11:18am

      Does anyone in the US know where these and the nightlight are available? The pic that someone posted a link to looks like it’s in a store somewhere. Doubt Hallmark stores would stock’em,lol! If anyone knows please let me know as I’m off to New York Comic Con in October and then Christmas vacation of course,lol! Kinda hoping to pick them up in a store to save on the shipping.

      Have fun y’all! John-Robin!

      & have 3 Retail Stores in NYC.

      August 29th, 2012 - 8:35am

      Thanks for that! I usually go by the one on 40th,close to Port Authority and my local caf whenever I’m in New York,lol. Also usually check out Jim Hanleys Universe and Forbidden Planet while there so will have a look there too of course.

      Thanks again!

      Be nice to get hold of The Yellow Glass Dalek Christmas Decoration as well with these lights – But only seem’s to be in Australia at the moment!

    • JRT

      September 4th, 2012 - 10:25am

      Yeah,those glass ones are available at a lot of places in the US as well,hard to find one that’s in good condition though. Didn’t know Kurt Adler made it available in Australia as well,cool! They also have a Tardis Christmas stocking coming out and I want that too! LOL!
