August 27th, 2013 - 12:31pmI phoned them again today and finally got confirmation that I AM subscribed! Finally! Although they had it down as standard not premium so I got them to change it to premium, I want all those Daleks! She said I would get my first issues in a few weeks, so I guess subscribers have to wait longer than the people who buy them in shops…
booboo
August 27th, 2013 - 12:43pma few weeks? that’s dreadful
KORSAIR
August 27th, 2013 - 4:15pmEaglemoss has taken their first payment from my account so I guess that means I’m now subscribed.
booboo
August 27th, 2013 - 4:18pmnothing gone from mine
wouldn’t it be typical if mine is one that gets mucked up – i was assured my details were safe and all was well
KORSAIR
August 27th, 2013 - 4:25pmThey only took £2.99 for the first issue, I thought it would’ve been £3.99 as I’m supposed to be premium, time will tell if they’ve got it right or not.
booboo
August 27th, 2013 - 4:26pmlooking at the latest info premium subs start from issue 2
KORSAIR
August 27th, 2013 - 4:35pmHopefully it’s done and dusted then fingers crossed.
Jamie
August 27th, 2013 - 4:41pmI am the same as you Booboo. They have yet to take any payment from my account as well.

3.They dodged my question on doing all companions by saying they have not confirmed the figurines for all the issues yet
4. At the moment only 80 issues planned, will keep us updated if there is any extensions to the collection
5.They are discussing at the moment whether 12th Doctor will be included will let us know ASAP when they know

Cpl Hicks
August 6th, 2013 - 11:55amI subscribed yesterday but have had no emailed confirmation, has anyone else had similar or better still a reply?
booboo
August 6th, 2013 - 11:59amI subscribed months ago and have had nothing from them since
Cpl Hicks
August 6th, 2013 - 1:05pmI just rang them and they said that it was a technical hitch, whatever that means and I should get something which gives me a subscriber number so I can log-on to their site etc
Rikki Krystal
August 6th, 2013 - 11:19pmI’ve subscribed twice.
I first did it weeks ago,had no confirmation,got in touch with them,they had no record of it.
And told me to try again.
Tried again with a different payment method,and two weeks on,and still heard nothing.
I want the extra with all the daleks,and don’t want to miss out.So going to ring them tomorrow,to see what’s going on
Matthew
August 6th, 2013 - 9:08amAre the figures the same scale as the 3.75 inch figures
booboo
August 6th, 2013 - 9:11amnot exactly but very close, some you can get away with like Davros and the Cybermen
Dalek the Supreme
August 6th, 2013 - 12:28amDalek Supreme? Please tell me it’s the 2010 one! Fourth Doctor, Rassilon, Silent, and Ice Warrior also look great! I might collect these someday…if I can get them on Ebay.
Anonymous
August 6th, 2013 - 10:50amWhile it is being a bit picky, the 2010 model is “The Supreme” as opposed to a “Dalek Supreme”.
If it isn’t a simple mistake then “Dalek Supreme” refers to any of a number of leaders that appeared in various stories between The Chase and Remembrance of the Daleks.
Either way, the 2010 one was mentioned in some of the promotional material in the test run so very likely will be in the range at some point.
tom
August 5th, 2013 - 11:27pmIf subscribe befor issue 1 comes out will u get it early or 2 3 days after
booboo
August 5th, 2013 - 11:29pmwho knows
CyberGuy500
August 5th, 2013 - 9:46pmI still can’t decide whether to get these. It is quite a lot of money in the long run.
The Master
August 5th, 2013 - 9:27pmwould be awesome if this came out in Australia
MaxP
August 6th, 2013 - 1:35amHas it been said it won’t be? The DVD collection was released here. Hope it will. Looks great.
Tardispals
August 5th, 2013 - 2:16amI hope they have Jenny Flint and Strax figures seeing as they have a Madame Vastra planned :3
Anonymous
August 5th, 2013 - 10:41amThe problem with Sontaran figures is they all look alike.
Just release a modern Sontaran Commander figure and you’ve got Strax (I thought it was rather hilarious when people demand a 5” Strax figure because we’ve already got one).
Explosive Cookie
August 5th, 2013 - 1:05pmI think he means in his butler outfit
Doctor Stu
August 5th, 2013 - 8:06pmBut the Skorr and General Staal Figures were noticeably different because my Staal is perfect for detail and Skorr looks completely different so I think a Strax figure can be achieved that looks different out the other sontarans even without his butler outfit
Doctor Stu
August 5th, 2013 - 8:08pm..and remember these figurines are detailed down to the slightest wrinkle and crease.
Anonymous
August 5th, 2013 - 11:54pmI think you’ve missed the point though, Staal and Skorr were played by different actors so the figures should look different.
However, Skorr (who has a figure) is the same actor as Strax (and also the same rank so they have the same armour) so in a way it is the same figure down to the slightest wrinkle and crease.
You could kill a few birds with one stone (just aim it at the probic vent and that’s three Sontarans from the new series gone).
The Supreme Dalek
August 4th, 2013 - 9:53pmI need help:
When it says if I want to receive the stands every 10 issues, tick if I DON’T want them, do you not get the first one free anyway?
dalek62
August 4th, 2013 - 10:27pmi presume you can cancel the stands at a later date anyway
The Supreme Dalek
August 4th, 2013 - 10:47pmYes but do you get the first display stand free?
booboo
August 4th, 2013 - 10:49pmyes
The Supreme Dalek
August 5th, 2013 - 8:49amOk, so to clarify this, when I subscribe I will get the first stand and binder free. If I don’t tick the boxes I will receive the stands every 10 issues.
Alright, I was considering to subscribe and if I do I’ll probably tick the boxes as I’m not really really wanting the stands.
Does the premium Subscription still have the four free gifts?
booboo
August 5th, 2013 - 9:08amyes and yes
The Supreme Dalek
August 5th, 2013 - 10:12amOK and my final two questions (Sorry!):
• When would you receive the Emperor Dalek?
• Every when would you receive a subscriber’s Dalek or if you get them all together, then when?
booboo
August 5th, 2013 - 10:14amwith your 4th delivery so issues 7-8 possibly
Daleks will be every few issues probably around every 10
The Supreme Dalek
August 5th, 2013 - 10:17amOk thanks so much for your help booboo! 🙂
Doctor Who Crazy Ross
August 4th, 2013 - 9:53pmI wonder if the John Hurt Doctor and Peter Capaldi Doctor gets figurines?
KORSAIR
August 4th, 2013 - 10:58pmI have to be honest and say that the redone 11th isn’t much better than the test version.
Anonymous
August 4th, 2013 - 11:55pmWhile Capaldi’s Doctor hasn’t been confirmed in the line-up (only three have actually) it seems incredibly likely that his Doctor will show up in the range at some point.
Hurt should show up as well, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t.
DoctorArkham
August 4th, 2013 - 8:21pmIs it worth it to just subscribe until you get the exclusives and them cancel your subscription? Not that I want to, but just asking. 🙂
Doctor Stu
August 4th, 2013 - 6:12pmWhen it says…..
As a subscriber you will automatically receive display plinth as they come available at £14.99 each every 10 issues. Tick here if you DO NOT wish to receive them.
As a subscriber you will automatically receive binders every 16 issues at £6.99 each. Tick here if you DO NOT wish to receive them.
Does this mean you will have to pay an additional 14.99 every 10 issues and an additional 6.99 every 16 issues. If so will it be better off to tick no on these options?
Anonymous
August 4th, 2013 - 9:00pmYes you will pay those extra fees.
It depends on whether or not you want the binders and/or stands as to whether it is better or not.
Doctor Stu
August 4th, 2013 - 9:40pmI want the stands but no so bothered about binders. Thanks for that
Dave
August 5th, 2013 - 2:43pmi want the stands and binders , i am willing to pay the 6.99 for binder but why is the stands so expensive , its only a stand haha
The Supreme Dalek
August 4th, 2013 - 6:08pm• Every when would you get a subscriber’s Dalek?
• Was the Emperor available on the rest run? If so, does anyone have pictures?
• How many display stands do you get?
Anonymous
August 4th, 2013 - 11:53pmI would presume it is once every ten issues for the subscriber Daleks and the base.
No it was not available with the test run.
You get one base free, after that you can get another one every ten issues if you want to pay for them.
LOLZ
August 4th, 2013 - 5:39pmWill there be Daleks in the Collection?
Anonymous
August 4th, 2013 - 11:51pmYes there will be some Daleks (issue 6 is a Bronze Dalek for instance) and there are also the subscriber ones.
Booboo Jr
August 4th, 2013 - 5:28pmAm I the only one who won’t be getting these?
As brilliant as they look, this sort of collection always seems to exceed the planned amount of issues.
Take the DVD Files for example. There were only 28 planned originally, and that number just seemed to keep rising; we’ve now had almost 120 Issues!
I don’t want to be paying £6.99 every fortnight without knowing when it’s going to end. So instead, I want to start getting a few more Classic Figure Sets.
Timelord3
August 5th, 2013 - 9:32amI’m the same, the DVD files got too much to handle and it was extended all the time so I just had to cancel it.
Radburn
August 5th, 2013 - 9:34amI’m not either – I originally subscribed but the Database Factory that deals with the distribution is incompetent & not worth the hassle of dealing with. I have read other comments here on the site that say the actual delivery (Through the post) is pretty dire as well. They only send them out in a plastic sleeve resulting in a lot of cases with damage to the items enclosed.
booboo
August 5th, 2013 - 9:37amAnother thing to watch out for is that they have clearly changed the 11th Doctor to a better figure so they are going to have to start at the begging to be fair to those would already had something
booboo
August 5th, 2013 - 9:35amI agree that can be a problem, however the DVD files crosses over into DVD’s people may already have purchased
Not a problem here and lest face it this could build into an incredible collection
I am still going to subscribe because i want the collection despite their poor service and to lack of information for those who signed up ages ago
Unitedgamers2013
August 5th, 2013 - 10:18amI’m not getting these. As nice as they look, the are far too expensive for me.
Cullya
August 4th, 2013 - 4:50pmAnyone know If we subscribed for the test release do we have to re subscribe?
booboo
August 4th, 2013 - 5:04pmApparently not but I would check
Daff
August 4th, 2013 - 4:22pmexcited about this, it comes out the day after I get paid 😀 i already have issues 1-3 from the test run, they didn’t cost me anything either XD i just cant remember if i have subscribed or not..
timelord22
August 4th, 2013 - 4:13pmCan’t wait to start collecting these again. I’m gonna subscribe!

August 4th, 2013 - 3:52pmwhats the 1st one?

Anonymous
August 4th, 2013 - 12:57amHas there been any more details about he special Daleks? I’m thinking in terms of how many issues it will be spread over and what happens when they are all sent out (because if I was to subscribe, I don’t want to have to re-subscribe so I’m not getting charged extra for nothing).
booboo
August 4th, 2013 - 10:39amonly that its 80 figures so i assume 80 issues
I know want you mean though we dont want them to carry on after 80 at £7.99 with no news on addition Daleks
Also works out at over £10 a Dalek over the 80 issues which seems a lot
Anonymous
August 4th, 2013 - 3:31pmWell there’s the display stand which should be £15 going by the price of the other one, then the seven Daleks. I’d say that works out around £64 in normal prices, but these are exclusives I guess.
An extra pound per issue works out at £79, provided that number doesn’t include special issues which could knock a few pounds off its still a bit pricey.
Charliec3po
August 4th, 2013 - 12:14am1 How much is it to sub to the mag ?
2 is the emporer dalek exclusive to the subscription ?
booboo
August 4th, 2013 - 12:20am£6.99 per issue or £7.99 if you want the extra daleks
and yes you can only get the emperor by subscribing
