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.

impossible-box_twinfinal580

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.

imposs5802

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.

    Got 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!

      but 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

      Maybe he is not paying VAT. You can take £6 off the price if you are under the VAT registration limit.

    • booboo

      September 19th, 2014 - 9:31am

      but 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

      why 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!

    Just 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.

    Got 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.

      Post 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.
