Doctor Who Target Collection Signed Bookplate Editions
Available to order while stocks last from www.forbiddenplanet.com
For Doctor Who fans, the range of novelisations published by Target Books in the 1970s and 1980s hold a special place. There was a novel published for almost every Doctor Who serial between 1963 and 1989, with a very few (five, actually) notable exceptions.Since 2012, BBC Books has been successfully reissuing these classic paperbacks and expanding the Target range to include all-new novelisations of modern-era Doctor Who episodes.

March 30th, 2021 - 5:55pmJust wondering, now Target as just released these 7 books with all the stories having a different Doctor.
Can we expect another 7 books to arrive soon from Target with stories from the remaining 7 Doctors.
Any thoughts people?

March 11th, 2021 - 2:48pmBooboo, with these having to be signed, can you forsee a delay.
Just been on my account and there still showing as awaiting despatch.
Thought they would be posted by now so they would reach me tomorrow?

March 11th, 2021 - 4:13pmThe authors are signing the book plates at home i assume then presumably sending the to FP to insert into the books
They do have to books but things may take a bit longer to put together.
The FP release date has never been the date you should get it on only the date they get it.

February 22nd, 2021 - 2:46pmIf you order from FP with a card, around which date do they take monies. Usually before due date or much earlier?

February 22nd, 2021 - 6:24pmJust wondering with Covid and postal delays etc, what’s the chance of these books being released on time on the 12th March.
Do these sought of books usually keep getting delayed like the Blu ray collections normally do?
booboo
February 22nd, 2021 - 7:34pmsamples have been sent out so they are printed done and dusted, don’t see any delays other than postal issues

February 11th, 2021 - 6:26pmI never know how signed editions work, are they print signed or hand signed?
booboo
February 11th, 2021 - 7:35pmhand signed, but bookplates are signed by the author, then affixed to the book as in this case they cant do in person signings in the current climate.

February 11th, 2021 - 8:32pmAh right, thank you for the clarification.
