EndlessTimelord
July 30th, 2014 - 1:59pmIt looks good 😀 but I think they should of released 2 figure with this set one of the body’s being his Christmas outfit and the other body being his series 7B outfit and have the 2 old heads,a normal head and 12s head but that’s asking to much. BooBoo why have they not released clara in 5inch? 🙁

July 30th, 2014 - 7:46pmA 5 inch Clara (Oswin) is up for pre order on fpi now along with the 11th doctor (in his outfit from “The Snowman”) in The Impossible Set.

July 28th, 2014 - 9:27pmThe price is funny because a single Doctor Who 5″ action figure only cost £6.99 8 years ago….. look at the price now smh
76 Totters Lane
July 28th, 2014 - 9:31pmI know. It’s the same with LEGO as well. A small set about 8 years ago would be £4.99, whereas now it’s about £10.99.

July 28th, 2014 - 8:06pmbooboo do you think the removable waistcoat will ruin the apperene a bit
booboo
July 28th, 2014 - 8:06pmdoubt it

July 29th, 2014 - 9:25amHow? Bracewell was fine with the waistcoat how could this ruin the appearence.
Anonymous
July 28th, 2014 - 7:54pmI just worked out the total cost of the item, shipping and import/tax to get it to the uk from popcultcha. It came to £26. So the saving isn’t that much really.
booboo
July 28th, 2014 - 8:04pmyes, higher exchange rate takes it over the £15 – 2 weeks ago it was under
Anonymous
July 28th, 2014 - 8:14pmShame really, it looks like what ever country you order it from your getting ripped off
George
July 29th, 2014 - 12:11pm£4 off (£7 off their claimed RRP) isn’t a small saving, and it’s good to buy from other countries; if they see people are actually preferring to buy from retailers online and pay import charges because that’s cheaper than buying it from the UK retailer, they might wise up and lower their prices.
I’ll be buying online for the principle of not getting ripped off even if it does come to the same cost for the principle; at least the money goes towards actual services when bought overseas instead of just feeding FPi’s greed.
George
July 28th, 2014 - 12:19pmI can’t understand the price for this set… £33 as a main price? Really? I looked into buying a few sets online and found that maybe if I were just buying one it wouldn’t be much difference, but buying a lot in bulk as FPi would have done comes out way cheaper. While I understand that they need to make a profit, they can buy it from a retailer with the cost per item (taking into account postage and import costs) being about £20.
booboo
July 28th, 2014 - 12:21pmwe are all a bit puzzled on this one
it does seem very unfair
George
July 28th, 2014 - 12:22pmConsidering that they almost certainly have wholesale prices to pay to the distributor rather than the regular retail price to a fellow retailer, I would be surprised if they were paying any more than £15 per item, probably less.
I once tried to buy a few of an item because friends wanted some as well so we combined our order, and (despite them taking my money) they rejected my order on the basis that they don’t want to risk people having lots of stock for themselves to sell on at an inflated price simply due to rarity.
booboo
July 28th, 2014 - 12:27pmwell lots of people have asked and no one has got reasonable reply
as its an UT item presumably they set the RRP but they seem to have no Interest in their products any more
they did nothing at sdcc that i can see.
George
July 28th, 2014 - 12:25pmYet they then make sure they have a monopoly on the item by making it exclusive to FPi and charge ridiculous prices just because most people don’t have any cheaper alternative, taking advantage of being the only seller on the market. Seems they don’t like anyone else doing it, but are perfectly fine with it if it’s their own pockets they’re filling.
Hypocrites and dodgy sellers, I’ll get mine from America since it’ll work out at the same price even if I just buy the one, it’s good to get the message across to FPi that hypocrisy doesn’t pay.
booboo
July 28th, 2014 - 12:28pmto be fair its never been an issue up until this set
George
July 28th, 2014 - 12:34pmSeems very hypocritical of them to suddenly take on the stance of the very people they actively try to avoid selling to though, they disagree with their ethics then take the very same ethics on themselves to an extreme level. I can’t see how they can justify this price after everything they’ve preached so far.
RORY DOCTOR RIVER POND
July 24th, 2014 - 5:40pmcan you get this from popcultcha in the uK? As there’s a drop down menu saying ‘£ GB.’ it’s on 16 pounds which is pretty good
Radburn
July 25th, 2014 - 10:02amYes
RORY DOCTOR RIVER POND
July 25th, 2014 - 5:12pmmight even order this and wait to open with clara if she comes.
Davidscustoms11
July 24th, 2014 - 12:01pmIS THERE ANY MORE NEWS! The ace figure was announced the same day and we have more images of her than this I’d really like to see more pictures.
Destroyer of Worlds
July 23rd, 2014 - 8:42pmTo remake 11’s regeneration in 5 inch use:
.This Set
.Amy
.Gwen Cooper (for Clara)
Davidscustoms11
July 24th, 2014 - 9:32amI don’t think Gwen would be the most accurate figure maybe a custom?
Thatchos
July 24th, 2014 - 1:53pmWhen it comes to Clara, one thing I’d like to see would be a 5″ twin pack of the Twelfth Doctor and Clara from the end of Deep Breath or maybe the series 8 finale.
Destroyer of Worlds
July 25th, 2014 - 11:20amThen which figure should I use for Clara?
Davidscustoms11
July 25th, 2014 - 6:40pmMake a custom.
drwhofan1
September 7th, 2014 - 9:31pmi use gwen cooper for clara so just use her until you get a proper 5 inch clara totd maybe . or use the impossible set and take the belt off
Clarafan4
September 7th, 2014 - 9:45pmIf u pull the waist and legs off on the impossible set oswin figure
You can pull the belt off without breaking it apparenty
I’m getting mine during the week so I’ll try it and confirm If this is definatly the case
ThePixelatedDalek
July 23rd, 2014 - 4:40pmI’m not gonna get this unless the price is lowered down. Far too expensive for a Doctor Who figure!
HAVector
July 23rd, 2014 - 10:56amToo early to tell yet I s’pose, but it looks like Capaldi is kinda looking up and to the side. I’ve ordered this set, and my thoughts are: I hope this is isn’t the case and he’s staring straight, and I LOVE the old Smith head. I was never a huge fan of 11, but I thought senile 2000+ year old 11 was cool. Much like getting 8’s head with war, I don’t even care that it’s not “technically” the correct outfit, I’m just stoked we’re getting it.
Thatchos
July 22nd, 2014 - 9:48pmWould ordering Popcultcha from the USA be a good option? The listed price right now is $28.20.
James A
July 22nd, 2014 - 7:46pmIts cheaper to order this from PopCultcha in Australia, its around £14.99 there, plus the delivery charge (£6.21 when I ordered). Still cheaper than FB.
booboo
July 22nd, 2014 - 7:47pmyes, just be careful it doest go above £15 other wise it could end up costing a lot more
The Mr Master
July 22nd, 2014 - 9:37pmhow so?
Chris
July 25th, 2014 - 3:39pmPostage costs from the US are also used to calculate what import tax needs paying, last time I checked it was still cheaper to order from FP than the US due to import taxes
booboo
July 25th, 2014 - 3:42pmonly if the goods value is above £15, then you have to pay vat on the post and item cost together
dalek eternal
July 22nd, 2014 - 1:08pmAny chance that the aged aged is going to be compatible with the rumoured 11th dr in snowman outfit. Could possible be an sdcc figure

July 22nd, 2014 - 2:13pmyes one that w take to notice of in case it doesn’t happen
the astronaut of death
July 22nd, 2014 - 2:13pmI think it was considered but its not happening now
dalek eternal
July 23rd, 2014 - 11:59amI don’t know where the original source is from but I have heard rumours of one a while back it would make sense but I don’t think it’s going to happen it’s a nice thought though.
TARDISGuy
July 22nd, 2014 - 11:24amThis whole thing seems to be one great big screw up to me.
First, CO change their figure scale, then they release the War Doctor in Australia before UK and now they’re messing around with the price for this set. £30 for it in the UK but only $30 in Australia?
Please Character Options, sort yourselves out!
the astronaut of death
July 22nd, 2014 - 11:27amthe is underground toys isn’t it ?
booboo
July 22nd, 2014 - 11:27amnot Character they only make these they are not the distributor
Underground toys are
if you can find out who set the RRP quoted FP web site then you have the person who you can ask as to why the discrepancy
TARDISGuy
July 22nd, 2014 - 12:24pmAhh, true! I should have remembered the distribution issues are not down to Character Options. But their decision to change scales still seems strange to me.
That comment below was posted in the wrong conversation by accident 😳
booboo
July 22nd, 2014 - 12:29pmwell how about this from a business point a view
Many big retailers didn’t want 5″ any more and the lack of big orders from those that did severely curtailed future development (hence all the variants that everyone moaned about).
They did indicate they might be interested in a smaller cheaper toy line
Character developed – retails bought and the line continues
makes perfect business sense to me
the bottom line is what we think is not important, what retailers will buy and put on the shelves is
TARDISGuy
July 22nd, 2014 - 12:35pmFair point and I imagine the reason behind the change was something along those lines. I’m not saying there wasn’t a reason, I guess I’m just a bit disappointed as I, like many others, was a big fan of the 5 inch line.
Oh well! At least the classics continue in that scale and we still have this set, however much it turns out to cost…
George
July 24th, 2014 - 9:53amThe 5 inch line was doing fine until the quality dropped. When your first wave has Idris, second wave has Idris with a couple of cubes, and your third wave has Idris with a few more of the same cubes, it’s not surprising that less people will buy each time. From what I recall, the ones at the end of the regular 5 inch releases saw THREE re-releases with tiny differences, all released as a new wave each.
They shouldn’t have complained about the scale, the scale was never the problem, it was that they simply weren’t making new figures.
booboo
July 24th, 2014 - 10:31amPeople dont seen to have any understanding of what actually happened
they didn’t make new figures because they didn’t have enough orders for new investment but had to supply retailers that did order something with the the number of waves they requested – hence all the variants
The 5″ line was already dead before the quality dropped as you put it
George
July 24th, 2014 - 9:55am(Note the success of the War Doctor simply for being a good 5 inch scale release of a Doctor, compared to no-one caring about the 12 inch Capaldi release, you don’t see mad rushes to the shops to get that one).
CG
July 26th, 2014 - 9:03amLeave Australia alone!
Doctor 909
July 22nd, 2014 - 9:29amOk, I have just got an email from FPI about the price and this is what they sent me:
That they are looking into the matter as they to are confused by it being that price and because I made a few good points about it being a mad price my email has been forwarded to the directors.
So it sounds like we might be getting a price change, possibly but from what they said it sounds like it.
booboo
July 22nd, 2014 - 9:34amthey said that same thing just after it was announced
TARDISGuy
July 22nd, 2014 - 12:20pmAhh, true! I should have remembered the distribution issues are not down to Character Options. But their decision to change scales still seems strange to me.

RORY DOCTOR RIVER POND
July 21st, 2014 - 10:13pmfor playability, I think this would sell even more if there were series 7 figures (mainly Clara) to go with it.
the astronaut of death
July 21st, 2014 - 10:13pmI agree
Destroyer of Worlds
July 22nd, 2014 - 8:11amYeah I want to try and remake the 50th anniversary special in 5inch so I need:
Clara
New Zygon
Kate Stewart
Osgood
Davidscustoms11
July 22nd, 2014 - 8:45amSince the 50th came out I’ve wanted to do an Osgood custom figure and I think this would be the best recipe:
Bracewells lab coat
Amy’s head
Tens glasses
Fours scarf
And for the main body probably Bracewell
Wholords2
July 22nd, 2014 - 9:04amBracewells body is a bit too manly for her
Perhaps you should use a torchwood tosh figure
And maybe a primeval helen cutter figure
Wholords2
July 22nd, 2014 - 9:04amFor the head
Destroyer of Worlds
July 21st, 2014 - 7:09amSDCC exclusive 5 inch figure could be a Clara (even though there has been no news).
Davidscustoms11
July 21st, 2014 - 9:36amCould be but it could be a bit rushed. I like the idea of a five inch clara though.
Thatchos
July 21st, 2014 - 10:14pmFor a SDCC exclusive, I’d like to see a 3-pack of the Second Doctor in fur coat, Jamie and a Yeti. I think it’s quite possible.
As for a 5″ Clara, I’d like to see a 5″ twin pack of the Twelfth Doctor in main costume and Clara in either TOTD costume or series 8 finale costume.
But, I think a good option for Underground and Character Options (:lol:) would be to release a 5″ Twelfth Doctor’s Companions pack upon Capaldi’s departure.
RORY DOCTOR RIVER POND
July 21st, 2014 - 10:17pmI wouldn’t buy this if there was no clara, I don’t know who he’d stand with!
But a bit worried this will disappear, as I waited too long for the War Doctor and I missed out on that
Imlookingforthedoctor
July 20th, 2014 - 10:06pmHello everyone! there are pictures of the Time of the Doctor set on (Doctorwhotoys.net) in the packaging looks Brilliant! go check it out!
Scott
July 20th, 2014 - 11:35amJust realised that the aged eleventh doctor head doesn’t go with the body as that was not the outfit he was wearing in the episode.
CG
July 21st, 2014 - 8:22amThats true but that head would probably be the least out of the three that people would display with, even though it looks great!
James A
July 20th, 2014 - 12:33amHas anyone contacted Forbidden Planet or Character Options as to why the price for this figure is so high and got a reply??

The Twelfth Doctor
July 19th, 2014 - 10:36amTheir delivery is good but not as fast as Amazon or CO. And if it doesn’t arrive by Christmas then you’ve got a problem. It should arrive by the middle of October.

unless there is an SDCC surprise we dont know about yet
Charlie Lowe
July 17th, 2014 - 6:29pmTo be fair… They said that a year ago and since then we have had a war doctor figure and this. I personally believe we will be getting a twelfth doctor figure ( in costume ) and a new cyberman figure

How much in import/customs do you think it would cost to order this from Australia?
booboo
July 16th, 2014 - 4:16pm£8 coast and vat, with the post not worth its Unless the price drops below £15
Melkur
July 16th, 2014 - 5:43pmBlimey that is cheap in comparison!
When I put it in my basket it says £14.88!!
booboo
July 16th, 2014 - 5:44pmi which case you will be Ok
less that £20 incl post
Melkur
July 16th, 2014 - 5:48pmIt’s a bit mad isn’t it!? That’s a remarkable bargain when compared to FPI.
Nicholas
July 16th, 2014 - 5:53pmIf you check your cart it still says £16.48?
Melkur
July 16th, 2014 - 6:01pmMine still says £14.88 + £6.08 shipping, so I just bit the bullet and preordered one (I’ve ordered off them loads of times, they are very good). The only downside is that Paypal takes the money instantly, but for £20.96 I think it’s worth it.
Nicholas
July 16th, 2014 - 6:42pmMay order one myself then. I prefer it when they take the money instantly – means I don’t have to make sure I always have enough in the bank
Exterminator
July 16th, 2014 - 9:25pmI’ve ordered one from Oz. It’s half the price of forbidden planet. We’ve got to save the pennies in my house.

July 16th, 2014 - 10:24pmyou can order this one from an Aussie site : http://www.popcultcha.com.au/doctor-who-time-of-the-doctor-regeneration-5-action-figure-set.html#.U8bt7pSSySo

July 17th, 2014 - 4:01amI live in Australia so this is my best option! 🙂
When The Doctor Was Me
July 17th, 2014 - 11:35amSo im a bit confused! With postage it comes to £20.96 do i then add £8 customs cost making it £28.96! Never ordered from abroad before.
booboo
July 17th, 2014 - 11:38amno
as long as the actual item is under £15 the post is irrelevant
if it goes above £15 you will have to pay vat on both the item and the post + £8 handling
to be honest non of us should even have to be considering doing this
When The Doctor Was Me
July 17th, 2014 - 11:41amI will stick with the uk then! For the sake of no hassle. Thanks booboo
booboo
July 17th, 2014 - 11:46amup to you
its still a lot cheaper
the danger is if it goes above £15 because of the exchange rate then its not worth the risk
I still think the UK price seriously needs looking into or at least an explanation given as to why
if for some unknown reason its costing a lot to import i think people would be a little more understanding
CG
July 17th, 2014 - 1:23pmI know lots of Australians missed the War doctor from Popcultcha so this might just not help it either.
booboo
July 17th, 2014 - 1:27pmagain its because people could get weeks earlier and no real difference in cost even with post
I have always believed (within reason) on a level playing field.
At the moment we are playing in the Himalayas.
Sebatron
July 17th, 2014 - 2:50pmHow do you mean getting weeks earlier, booboo?
booboo
July 17th, 2014 - 3:07pmpeople in the UK who ordered it from Australia got it weeks before the UK stock arrived
Sebatron
July 17th, 2014 - 3:41pmAh, ok! Thanks!
Nicholas
July 16th, 2014 - 9:12amIt says that this arrives in FPi’s warehouse on the 30th September. Are our orders dispatched from there, meaning we’d get it it after the 30th or are they dispatched before that so they arrive on release day, if not a few days earlier?
booboo
July 16th, 2014 - 9:14amdespatched on that date (if they do indeed arrive then)
dates have always been unreliable this far in advance
have know stock to arrive later or earlier
Arthur Stengos
July 16th, 2014 - 2:17amAlready put a pre-order enquiry out for the ‘Asylum Of The Daleks’ set. It’s pretty darn definite that it will be released. Order a couple, as usual. Two different ‘New Paradigm’ Daleks, heavily weathered, and a ‘Proper’ bronze Dalek, also weathered. Think I’ll blow one of the ‘N.P.’ Daleks up, film it in slow motion. Should be a laugh.
