      Ben Robinson told people at a convention it was going to 200, but until we get an official press release we cant say either way.

    Just got my Lin/Dalek figurine. The paintwork is dreadful – no attempt to paint properly, paint just splashed on. This is the first one I have found to be this badly done.

      Yup, same as mine. Paint slopped from the shirt across the tentacles – Awful! Such a pity as it’s a great figurine.

      Really surprised that this has happened. We get samples in the office and they’ve been just great. Have you taken pictures of your figurines and sent them to customer services? You should be able to get replacements.

    This figurine is very pleasing to me. Keep it up Eaglemoss

    Skovox Blitzer
    Tractator
    Clockwork soldier from the mind robber
    Kandyman
    Foamasi
    The Garm
    Solonian Mutt
    Snowman
    Menoptera
    Kraal

    Honourable mentions:
    Hieronymous
    Kyrnoid/ Axon
    Cleaner from paradise towers
    Eldrad
    Black Guardian
    Borad
    Mestor
    Stike
    Krillitane
    Abzorbaliff

    Looks a lot better than the Linx figurine. If they do Styre I hope the do his robot as a special.

      wouldn’t it be better to get new characters and monsters instead of multiple sontaran

    • The Flying Shark

      December 13th, 2019 - 12:41pm

      But the amount of new monsters and characters will run out-depending on how long the collection runs, they’ll have to fill up spaces with variants eventually.

      December 13th, 2019 - 3:40pm

      But there’s still so many figures they could do without resorting to variants

    Absolutely delighted to see this figure! Slightly lifted my sense of impending dread on this election night! I’ve felt that the (in my opinion very underrated) middle Tom Baker series 15 and 16 needed a few more figures to represent them so thanks Neil and all. It’s a great figure to boot!

    It may be just me, but I think a Borad figure would be great. Neil… please…?!

      I would absolutely love to see a Collector figure! Wonderful character form one of my absolute favourite stories.

      The closest Doctor Who ever got to Samuel Beckett!

      Rutan wouldn’t work as a figurine just my opinion

    Classic sontarans were always the best. More menacing in black.

      I repainted a issue 7 General Staal figure so that it had a black uniform and it looks really impressive.

    • The Ergon

      December 14th, 2019 - 12:40am

      Blue sontarans never cut it as well for me. As much as i like Strax, the Sontarans are reduced the comedic sidekick. Bring them back as they were, all black but with a malicious evil streak and not just resorting to the war with the Rutans. Even if that was the original purpose and why they were cloned and bred like this. Give them a new angle. They could involve someone tampering with the cloning process for their own nefarious needs.

    • Negative Matter

      December 14th, 2019 - 9:42pm

      Ergon a Sontaran / Rutan war story featuring both is long overdue.

    • The Ergon

      December 14th, 2019 - 11:52pm

      I should have rephrased that with ‘just the mentioning’ of resorting to the war with the Rutans. I didn,t make myself Clear and yes i would like to actually see an epic with them battling the Rutans not just something mentioned in passing.
