News on B&M 2019 Figure / Tardis Sets (Closed)
As I’m sure many are aware this year B&M are expecting several new, exclusive Doctor Who sets in the coming weeks and months.
These consist of Three 3 figure sets, Two Tardis Sets and a new line of Three 2 figure sets.
A press release is due Today, with updates as to what to expect in some of these sets. Full details however will be reserved for a later date.
Individual posts on each set will be added to the site as soon as exact contents are known.

June 11th, 2019 - 9:21amI’m trying to compile a list of all the B&M variants that have been released. Has someone already done the work, can anyone point me towards such a list?
Also, more importantly, I’m trying to figure out how scarce some of the releases were. Here in Scotland, stuck in the middle of the central belt halfway between Glasgow and Edinburgh there’s few and far between B&M locations that stocked the figures. Either overstocked multiples of some very common ones or not even sight of any of the scarcer ones. There’s some massive gaps in my collection.
I wish their online presence offered a more even playing field for collectors. Especially those of us who are geographically challenged. I don’t mind hunting for figures, but it’s nice to know there’s something waiting at the end of the chase. Something more than just a wild goose 🙁

June 11th, 2019 - 9:26amdistribution did seem a bit random but i think there are more of these sets so hopefully they will get more evenly distributed
An online presence is difficult as their business model is to get people in stores.
I don’t know a list, you will find them all here http://merchandise.thedoctorwhosite.co.uk/?s=B%26M
variants are in the posts such as Jo grant head and Sontaran stripes

June 11th, 2019 - 9:40amThanks Booboo. A bit random is probably an optimistic way of describing some of the releases. I’m guessing figures were sent to locations with a greater population density. There’s some cities in England that have a larger population than all of Scotland. So I’m kind of handicapped before I even start trying to chase any releases. Then the spotters announce sightings through social media, and your website, none of which are near me. Or if they’re relatively close then there’s bound to be others who’ve managed to get there first.
I’m working through your many pages of merchandise information. Impressive! Heartfelt thanks. It’s a bit overwhelming to see how much there is now compared with the wilderness years between classic and new era series.

June 11th, 2019 - 9:50ami know how you feel, we live in Cheletenham, which is a biggish town, and they never got the 3 pack or (3rd) Tardis, so i went to Evesham, a much smaller town who had the 3 packs but not the Tardis so i had to get someone to send one to me.

June 11th, 2019 - 9:40amI’m in Edinburgh and it looks like Livinston is usually your best bet for figures in B&M in the area.

June 11th, 2019 - 9:42amthanks BrunoB. I’m a little closet to Edinburgh than i am to Glasgow. looks like I’ll be exploring Livingston pretty soon.

June 11th, 2019 - 10:42amThanks Richard Lloyd. There’s more variants than I thought! Didn’t realise there had been so many. I’ve now got to decide if It’s worth trying to get a complete collection or just stick to a select few within a limited theme.
Demdike@CultLabs
June 11th, 2019 - 9:14amHere’s hoping for some monsters!
Demdike@CultLabs
June 11th, 2019 - 9:18amI wonder if the two figure sets could be the Daleks that were released a few years ago – the sets that included McGann and the red Dalek, or could it be the Doctor / Dlaek sets that also came out years ago?
booboo
June 11th, 2019 - 9:33amI think it was mentioned they could do a “movie Dalek” as one was seen in the chase in the background.

June 11th, 2019 - 10:23amAl Dewar said no Daleks, but hey he could have been fibbing
Whova

I’ve Got the who’s
June 11th, 2019 - 8:56amI love a 7th Doctor and ace double pack or a 7th Doctor and the imperial dalek double pack either one of those would be lovely
Ollie
June 11th, 2019 - 8:55amI hope the rarer figures from Forbidden Planet / Underground Toys aren’t re-released or the value of my figure collection is going to plummet overnight! It’s my little nest-egg for my daughter when she’s older.
booboo
June 11th, 2019 - 8:59amon the opposite end i think thats what many people are very much hoping for
The Outcast
June 11th, 2019 - 10:28amScrew value, I want rarer figures to be re-issued. Emperor Davros would be a great re-release.
The Living Shadow
June 11th, 2019 - 8:07amThings are about to get crazy!!! There’s nothing in particular I’m anticipating, but I’m sure one or two (if not all of the sets) will take my fancy once they’re announced though!
Anonymous
June 11th, 2019 - 8:05amA double pack of Missy and John Simm from The Doctor Falls would be cool but unlikely.
Anonymous
June 11th, 2019 - 8:03amVery excited for this as all ways, but a lot of dread too. Just hoping my locals get them in.
James12345
June 11th, 2019 - 7:26amit is gonna be 5th and tardis – most likely
The Outcast
June 11th, 2019 - 7:36amThat’s one of the TARDIS sets for sure. I reckon the other is a Season 17 4th Doctor and TARDIS set.
Geeksville
June 11th, 2019 - 5:03amfrom what i’ve heard the three packs will be more repaints
but this new 2 figure set has me intrigued
Anonymous
June 11th, 2019 - 7:56amYou haven’t heard anything as these haven’t been announced yet
booboo
June 11th, 2019 - 8:05amthere are some pretty big clues going around though
Anonymous
June 11th, 2019 - 8:29amI’m assuming the 7ths doctor umbrella that booboo has just but over the image is a clue to 7th doctor set? Will the two packs be Doctor and companion sets
booboo
June 11th, 2019 - 8:35ami think you reading to much into that, its just supposed to be a general ? just seemed a good idea to use the umbrella.
Daz
June 11th, 2019 - 12:04amThe Tardis sets have been constantly in stock my local B&M this year so far easier to get hold of than last years set. Hopefully the next sets will be just as easy to get as I really won’t be paying double on eBay for anything.
The Outcast
June 10th, 2019 - 11:57pmFinally a solid release date. Excellent.
Anonymous
June 10th, 2019 - 10:42pmThis is exciting! Do we know if these are repainted figures like before? Or are we in for a treat?
EndlessTimelord
June 10th, 2019 - 10:52pmTbh I can’t say for sure, deffo will see repainted figures but theres something “unexpected” and “exciting” this year so no idea what to expect!
Tom
June 10th, 2019 - 10:55pmI actually hope it’s a treat
Anonymous
June 10th, 2019 - 10:15pmIt’s just a hope, but this is what I’m thinking.
13th doctor TARDIS interior playset
13th doctor in pink top and TARDIS exterior set
Graham, Ryan and Yaz set
Grace, tentacle monster and Tim Shaw set
Vigerian, Kerblam man and Morax set
Rosa Parks and Krasko set
Tim Shaw and Sniper bot set
Recon Dalek and 13th doctor with scarf set
Just a guess, I’ll probably be wrong, but let’s just hope for the best.
Anonymous
June 10th, 2019 - 10:17pmIt won’t be – there’s no s11 stuff coming bar maybe a 13 variant at best as the companions and the TARDIS are coming next year. No other figures have been commissioned unfortunately 🙁
EndlessTimelord
June 10th, 2019 - 10:22pmWon’t be Series 11 related (would be very surprised if it will be)
Bobby Davros
June 10th, 2019 - 10:29pmYeah 0% chance it’ll be new sculpts.
Anonymous
June 11th, 2019 - 1:31amThere’s certainly a chance that there could be a 13th Doctor repaint.
If everyone remembers the Bill Potts figure ended up being a repaint and released in B&M before the Amazon released.

June 11th, 2019 - 1:42amBobby Davros great name. Lol
booboo
June 11th, 2019 - 7:20amunfortunately there wont be anything like that, this is B&m so sets on tight budget, mostly repaints but a few surprises

June 11th, 2019 - 9:46amNow, Now. Education is more important than all this frivolity. Concentrate on those exams. You can look later. The sets aren,t going anywhere.
The ergon
June 10th, 2019 - 8:16pmWhen it comes, it all seems to come at once. Expecting there will be hundreds of posts whatever it is. The chase will definitely be on if its the ‘Yas, Ryan and Graeme’ sets.
booboo
June 10th, 2019 - 8:18pmi don’t see that at this stage to be honest
The ergon
June 10th, 2019 - 8:22pmWill that be exclusive For the SDCC market do you think?
booboo
June 10th, 2019 - 8:31pmno def not, CO can’t distribute in the USA only Seven20
The ergon
June 10th, 2019 - 8:25pmThe fact they have a new line is exciting enough but i bet youre dreading being able to keep up with the posting with Tardis sets again.

June 11th, 2019 - 7:18amI have a feeling the 2 figure packs will be just as bad…

June 10th, 2019 - 8:08pmAny guesses for what they will be Booboo?
booboo
June 10th, 2019 - 8:15pmexpect the expected, and the very unexpected
There are many things where i really don’t know, not a clue, so i’m guessing along with the rest of you.
I may be barking up the wrong tree but i’m getting vibes for “random figure(s)”.

June 10th, 2019 - 8:28pmWould love a 12th Doctor figure with waste coat – but I can’t see them doing it.
I just want an accurate 12th Doctor figure 🙁

June 10th, 2019 - 7:19pmI’ve never yet been lucky enough to find any DW stock in these shops. It’s a shame that these guys don’t do on line shopping. That said it is the Aldi of the toy shops. Low cost, no frills etc,. I just wish there was an easier way of ordering, reserving and/or they had more locations. Great for those lucky enough to live near one.
