      Because there are only 80 issues
      Because they may struggle with humans
      Because some people, like me, don’t want figurines of companions

      the humans have got a lot better, but companions are a problem as there are so many, for every person who wants one figure there is another person who wants a different one

      difficult situation

      if they stick to 80 to many good monsters could be lost

      Discounting the remaining doctor figurines and the odd ones we,ve already had in 5 inch (possibly Cassandra,master,hath,clockwork man etc and fom current series) I hope they manage to squeeze in a few more exclusives from the classic series what haven,t already been made. That terileptil is great. If they could have done them in 5 inch, they could have done the 3 separate colour variations.

    Even though I hated the episode, I hope they do a Skovox Blitzer special.

      I suspect if it does get made it will only be a regular issue, it isn’t very big after all.

    Oh got excited for a moment there, thought it was the robot knight from the Time Warrior. Oh well..still looks like a good figurine though.

    I absolutely love the look of this.
    I’m glad that they are focusing a lot more on recent stuff, it would be nice to see figurines for most of the episodes of series 8, hopefully in the form of this:

    Deep Breath: Half Faced man
    Into the Dalek: Rusty
    Robots of Sherwood: Robot Knight
    Listen: –
    Time Heist: The Teller
    The Caretaker: Skovox Blitzer
    Kill The Moon: –
    Mummy on the Orient Express: The Foretold
    Flatline: The Twelfth Doctor
    In the Forest of the Night: –
    Dark Water: Missy
    Death in Heaven: Cyber Danny
    Last Christmas: Dream Crab

    (Yes, I know most of those have already been confirmed, I am just using them for this example)

      It’d be more likely for a Sleeper from Last Christmas. Also, I wish the Twelfth Doctor was from In the Forest of the Night, because I wanted a Boneless figure.

      same, i really wanted 12 to be from itfotn so we could get the boneless.
      and i was meant to say sleeper but got carried away and said dream crabs :’)

      For Listen they could do Orson Pink, Kill The Moon could be Capaldi in the spacesuit and they could do ordinary Danny/ maeve for In the forest of the night.

      I really think there needs to be less series 8 stuff as it takes up too much space in an 80 figure collection. I can live with the Skovox and Missy on top of the stuff already confirmed, but no more.

      I doubt they will do Orson or Danny as they are not doing any companions at the moment.We know the twelfth doctor is from flatline

      There’s only going to be 80 figurines?! Sorry, it doesn’t seem that long ago when the figurines began…

      that was the original figure, it well be extended if there are enough subscribers

    Characters like these, the Sycorax and the Gunslinger will be forgotten over time but do make for good figurines.

      The Sycorax have been one of my favourite monsters since they first appeared and still are.

      Nothing is getting pushed back, there’s a lot of things they want to release and that includes things that have recently been on television, and they expect it to be no different next year in 2016 with regards to this year’s stories.
