Clara and the Doctor: Linked through time in the most impossible way!
Clara ‘Oswin’ Oswald: The Impossible Girl. She and the Doctor first met on the Dalek Asylum planet where she claimed to have been fending off Dalek attacks for a year, making soufflés – where did she get the milk and eggs? Oswin agreed to deactivate the forcefield around the planet, but when human the Doctor went to rescue her, he discovered the terrible truth. Oswin wasn’t a girl any longer, but actually an insane Dalek who, unable to cope with her conversion, had retreated into a fantasy world. Oswin fulfilled her promise of helping the Doctor, telling him to “Run. Run, you clever boy, and remember…” They will meet again… and again.
The Doctor, appalled by his inability to save Amy and Rory from the Weeping Angels, retreated to Earth and hid himself and the TARDIS away from the Universe. Another chance but ill-fated meeting with Clara Oswald in snowy Victorian London pulled him out of his solitude and set him back on a new adventure…. to find the Impossible Girl!
Set details:
Presented here in the Impossible Set, together but apart, are the Eleventh Doctor in his iconic Victorian frock coat from The Snowmen, and Oswin Oswald, the Impossible Girl, in her iconic red dress from Asylum of the Daleks.
The Doctor’s outfit features his top hat and jacket with fur and brocade detailing. Oswin’s outfit is a one piece red dress with her soufflé-making accessory belt.
The set is presented in a unique double sided foil embellished SDCC collector pack with ‘peephole’ Dalek eye window on one side and a Victorian winter vista on the other.
The 11th Doctors head can be swapped with the aged 11th Doctors head from the Time of the Doctor set.

September 18th, 2014 - 9:03pmGot mine off eBay tonight and the price including p&p was £26.45.It’s £29.99 at Forbidden Planet. Add to that the £4.10 metro link fare it costs me to get to Manchester would have cost me £34.09 altogether. Saved £7.64 just by buying online. Not always the case but very happy!
booboo
September 18th, 2014 - 9:05pmfrom the USA? i cant see anyone on ebay selling it at that price
Simon
September 18th, 2014 - 9:16pmNo this was in the UK.

September 18th, 2014 - 9:16pmSomebody in the UK has got about 4 of them listed for auction.
booboo
September 18th, 2014 - 9:19pmi see them now, bit odd, why would any one risk selling them less than cost
just had a look, must be connected to the trade they have sold multiples of the same item

Simon
September 18th, 2014 - 10:22pmThey must know they are in demand and gonna be really popular.
booboo
September 18th, 2014 - 10:28pmbut they are selling for less than the shop price as you know so they must have access to the stock at cost or something
they have sold multiples of other items to must be connected to the trade or something
Tempus
September 19th, 2014 - 9:20amMaybe he is not paying VAT. You can take £6 off the price if you are under the VAT registration limit.
booboo
September 19th, 2014 - 9:31ambut technically you cant buy these wholesale and even if you could you still pay vat on the invoice purchase price which you cant claim back if your not vat registered
Nobody in particular

September 18th, 2014 - 6:38pmMy set arrived today and I am fairly pleased with it. There is a paint splodge at the Doctors wrist and a small mark on his nose but other than that they are both fine. 🙂
cheesy pie
September 19th, 2014 - 6:29amwhy don’t you get the same colour paint as the skin and dip a tooth pick into the paint and gently just go over the splodge and his nose and hand and it will look quite nice you don’t have to but I am just saying what I would do!
cheesy pie
September 19th, 2014 - 6:31amsorry I meant go over the splodge on his nose

The Fez Master
September 18th, 2014 - 7:14pmOh,I think it’s because I bought TTOTD set in the same order and the Impossible Set has been dispatched so only part of the whole order has been dispatched 😀
Timefordoctorwho

September 18th, 2014 - 3:36pmsame! i emailed fp yesterday and they said they were going to dispatch it as soon as possible 🙄
Andy Hall
September 18th, 2014 - 11:27amJust got mine delivered this morning. Mixed views. Nice packaging. The Doctors arms are a bit off and dont really line up joint wise. Clara is a bit dodgy to stand. The legs and boots are really awkward so ive had to lean her against the TARDIS so it doesnt fall over! No problems with paint jobs tho. So overall a mixed bag. Heres hoping The Time of The Doctor set is a bit better.
THE ERGON
September 18th, 2014 - 11:18amPicked mine from the shop direct in leeds yesterday.

booboo
September 17th, 2014 - 7:19pmordered ages ago nothing for me,
we normally like to get these things to feature on the site, been caught out with this one i should have known better and ordered from the US would have had it ages ago
The Holographic Doctor
September 17th, 2014 - 7:22pmI’m furious about how long I have had to wait for a despatch from Forbidden Planet , it’s ridiculous !
mick
September 17th, 2014 - 7:24pmI ordered mine on the 30th july and only just been sent off this afternoon so I wouldn’t worry
booboo
September 17th, 2014 - 7:26pmwe always used to get these items on the day of release, take pictures and all sorts, its what we have always tried to do with a lot of stuff
just not possible now
mick
September 17th, 2014 - 7:32pmif you rely on forbidden planet you might as well rely on a chocolate fire guard!
The Fishmonger
September 17th, 2014 - 7:06pmGot my two sets today…one is perfect, but in the other one, I need to book Clara into Willie Wonka’s toy hospital for a neck replacement. I think overall they are ok but if they are going to charge more they need to check the quality more rigorously. That said, if you put the figure next to the 3.75 inch Doctor and Clara, the difference is staggering. 5 inch is miles better.

September 17th, 2014 - 7:05pmSaw this in my local FP store today, had plenty in stock along with a load of Ace’s
Exterminator
September 17th, 2014 - 6:08pmMy impossible set arrived today, the paint job on Clara’s face is really bad. I’m not at all happy with it.
booboo
September 17th, 2014 - 6:12pmif its substandard ask for a replacement – dont put up with it
finn townley
September 17th, 2014 - 6:14pmdo you have a photo of the figure because I’m thinking of getting it but what you said I think I could be making a mistake
booboo
September 17th, 2014 - 6:15pmthe problem is i have seen some terrible ones and some really good ones
you should only ever have to accept a good one
mick
September 17th, 2014 - 6:22pmmight be the start of a few other complaining of a sub standard product when they start getting delivered. im not looking forward to mine coming now if its going to be rubbish.
The Mr Master
September 17th, 2014 - 9:22pmCan you only do replacements by going into stores?
cheesy pie
September 18th, 2014 - 6:27amI am worried mine won’t be great and could have some paint errors, fingers cross!!
Clarafan4
September 18th, 2014 - 7:36amI got mine from culttvandfilmmerchandise and only payed 39.99 and he made sure that mine had a good paint app and when it came it did!

September 18th, 2014 - 10:43amPost a picture on Twitter ensuring to include Undergound Toys and FPI (using “@”), hashtag Doctor Who etc and simply say “Is this what we are paying £30 for – comments welcome”
I guarantee they will respond as that is globally damaging to their brand.

September 17th, 2014 - 3:48pmHas anyone, non Paypal, had their order dispatched today? I haven’t!
mick
September 17th, 2014 - 3:55pmI paid by credit card and it was dispatched around half past one today
SomeFunnyDrWhoReference
September 17th, 2014 - 1:26pmGot dispatch email yesterday for this and Ace so hopefully at home later. It’s only an assumption but it’s possible those paid by paypal and moneies taken immediately (mine were) have priority.
SomeFunnyDrWhoReference
September 18th, 2014 - 6:15pmBoth arrived today – Nice packaging for Impossible set
