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.

Thanks to The Twelfth Doctor

    I ordered this today: on back order. Anyone have any ideas when it might come back in stock, or wether the back order is just because they haven’t received the set in Forbidden Planet’s warehouse?

    FPI says this is now on Back Order, Great knew this was gonna happen. Does this mean that they have Sold Out of their Stock from Pre-Orders and will be getting more in? Will those who Ordered theirs still have theirs Dispatched Today as originally Planned?

      if you already pre-ordered then you have secured your set and it will be dispatched to you on the release date which is today

    • WouldYouLikeAJellyBaby

      August 30th, 2014 - 12:10am

      Oh right, I Pre-Ordered this along with The a Time of The Doctor Set on Wednesday so will that Include mine being sent out today or was My Order to late?

    • doctorrivertardis

      August 30th, 2014 - 12:34am

      no your order should be dispatched today and you should receive it in 3-5 working days

      Forbidden planet defines back orders as ‘items which have been in stock, have sold out, and are on re-order from the Supplier or Publisher. Back Orders are placed in good faith by FPHS and, in the main, are re-supplied to us within acceptable time frames. However, outside circumstances can intervene.’
      I ordered mine midday yesterday, was it on back order then?

    My ideas for figures that should be made 5 inches:
    Paternosta Gang (figure set)
    Mrs Gillyflower with daughter (plus Mr Sweet)
    Wooden Cyberman
    Victorian Clara
    Crimson Horror Doctor
    New Cyberman
    Missy
    The Great Intelligence
    Whisperman
    The creature from the rings of akhaten
    Kate Stuart (with Boxes)
    The Shakri
    Gunslinger
    Liberty Weeping Angel
    The little girl from the rings of akhaten
    Solomon with the Robots
    Robin Hood (in season 8,Robots of Sherwood
    Ice Warrior
    Spoonhead
    Half Face man (Deep Breath)
    Please comment and tell me what you think

    So excited! I’d really like to see another 5 inch set with the 11th Doctor, Amy Pond, Rory Williams and River Song in their costumes from ‘The impossible astronaut’ or one with 10th Doctor, Rose and Donna from ‘Turn left’!
