Commander Kaagh
January 8th, 2012 - 2:29pmCan someone please tell me where I can get the box of 24 packs and how much does it cost?
BOOBOO JR
January 8th, 2012 - 2:38pmOn DWMI’s Shop – https://www.dbfactory2.co.uk/secure/drwho_bbc/single_cards/card_cdus.asp?itemData=item=0x0 – £36 with free delivery. Though you might find something cheaper if you look on ebay / Amazon.
Commander Kaagh
January 8th, 2012 - 2:42pmThank you.
BOOBOO JR
January 8th, 2012 - 2:45pmThat’s ok. There’s one here on ebay – http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Doctor-Monster-Invasion-Extreme-Set-2-Trading-Cards-Full-Box-24-Packets-/230722002273?pt=UK_Collectables_TradingCards_RL&hash=item35b81a5d61 – only £12.99. If your buying I’d go for this.
Commander Kaagh
January 8th, 2012 - 2:47pmWell i mean from the shops.
BOOBOO JR
January 8th, 2012 - 2:51pmOk, also I thought I’d tell you this about the Individual MI Card Shop. The general prices of cards online seem to be these:
Common – £0.29p
Rare – £0.49p
Super Rare 3-D – £2.99
Ultra Rare – £4.00 – £5.00
I reckon that they will either try to match these prices or go even lower.
Commander Kaagh
January 8th, 2012 - 3:09pmI know. I was on amazon today. 4.99£ for an ultra rare?! I would pay at least 399£.
BOOBOO JR
January 8th, 2012 - 3:10pm£399 for an Ultra Rare? Are you being serious???
Commander Kaagh
January 8th, 2012 - 3:22pmOh I ment 3.99£!!
BOOBOO JR
January 8th, 2012 - 3:30pmI was going to say, you could get the Infinite cheaper!
Commander Kaagh
January 8th, 2012 - 4:19pmI know. I wish they could print about 500 infinites but not cheap. About £150! I would save up and I could easily, cause in Christmas I had about £230!! Oh and the autographs about 70-100£.
Anonymous
January 8th, 2012 - 4:43pmThe autograph cards could not cost that much, maybe the Amy one but the Doctor card comes with issue 11 (which you can get from their website for £3.60 if you include postage) and the Rory can be found in tins for £9.99.
Commander Kaagh
January 8th, 2012 - 4:47pmYou can’t get issue 11 on back issues. I don’t know why..
Anonymous
January 8th, 2012 - 6:06pmError on the website, you can still get it using other means.

BOOBOO JR
January 7th, 2012 - 8:27pmCongratulations!
Commander Kaagh
January 7th, 2012 - 8:30pmLucky! That’s my fave ultra rare and I don’t have it. I wonder when i’ll get my first one… How rare is an ultra rare??
BOOBOO JR
January 7th, 2012 - 8:32pmAn Ultra Rare is 1 in every 10 Packs.

January 10th, 2012 - 8:55pmI have every card (excl. 2 infinates incl. 4 special editions)
Commander Kaagh
January 7th, 2012 - 7:52pmBooboo jr I’m back. For Christmas I got:
DW Annual 2012
David Tennant Book
Character Building TARDIS mega playset
BOOBOO JR
January 7th, 2012 - 7:56pmNice, what do you think of the CB Tardis Mega Playset? Hard to build? I remember it taking me ages!
Commander Kaagh
January 7th, 2012 - 7:59pmWell, I tried it in Scotland and ended up braking it up, as I was building it on the carpet and it was difficult. I’ve not started it yet, but I am soon. Before I built it i loved swapping there heads around. Rory on Amy was funny!!
BOOBOO JR
January 7th, 2012 - 8:02pmMine kept breaking while I was building, but I got there in the end! Just tried Rory on Amy myself, it’s funny !
Commander Kaagh
January 7th, 2012 - 8:05pmI know. What’s your favourite doctor who toy or anything related? Mine will have to be MI and Amy Pond. Im glad she’s the companion!!!!
BOOBOO JR
January 7th, 2012 - 8:08pmWell I agree on MI, I’m really liking that at the moment. The other thing I’m liking the look of are some of the new Classic Figure Sets, I haven’t gotany Classics yet. Only problem is, there a little expensive, so will have to wait and see about them.
Commander Kaagh
January 7th, 2012 - 8:11pmbecause I haven’t seen any classics, I’m not interested but some look good. I want to see the third doctor and fifth!
BOOBOO JR
January 7th, 2012 - 8:12pmYou should try getting hold of some Classics to watch, you’ll be suprised how good they are!
Commander Kaagh
January 7th, 2012 - 8:15pmActually, I’ve seen some. I have doctor who the movie and the first Doctor’s An Unearthly Child. I only liked the mOvie though. The first doctor isnt good. Who are your top 5 favourite companions?
BOOBOO JR
January 7th, 2012 - 8:22pmTop 5 Companions, well, I’m not really to sure but I’ll have a go –
1) Sarah Jane Smith, a brilliant companion, a shame we lost her.
2) Amy Pond, a really good companion, though shes leaving next year.
3) Ace, loved watching her hit Daleks with Baseball Bats .
4) The Brigadier, loved his appearances in the Classics and it was nice to see him in SJA, but again, it’s a shame we lost him. I liked his tribute in The Wedding of River Song though.
5)Rory Williams, it’s just funny watching him be hopeless!
Whats yours?
Commander Kaagh
January 7th, 2012 - 8:29pm1-Amy Pond
2-Rory Williams
3-Sarah Jane Smith
4-Donna Noble
5-Martha Jones
BOOBOO JR
January 7th, 2012 - 8:31pmGood choices, what else shall we talk about?
Commander Kaagh
January 7th, 2012 - 8:35pmEmmm…. Let’s talk about monster invasion and…oh! When are you back at school? I’m on Monday and also im writing on my iPod right now and I’ve got Internet problems so if I go off its cause of that.
BOOBOO JR
January 7th, 2012 - 8:38pmYou lucky guy, I’ve already been back at school a week, when did you break up? And with Monster Invasion, I’ve just looked over them and seen the ever growing pile of doubles, and double doubles, and double double doubles and… I think you get the point. Do you have the same problem?
Commander Kaagh
January 8th, 2012 - 7:41amGreek schools stopped on the 23rd, but I stayed off on the 22nd cause I left for holidays in scotland. What about you??
Commander Kaagh
January 8th, 2012 - 8:11amOh and what’s your most favourite, scariest, deadliest (in your opinion) and yuckiest alien? Mine are:
Favourite – Peg Dolls – Scary and my favourite episode!
Scariest – The Flood – the rock mouth and water on his body with weird eyes? Too scary!!!
Deadliest – I would say its the Silence.
Yuckiest – Jennifer’s Ganger – That was yucky when she grew in to that monster!
BOOBOO JR
January 8th, 2012 - 8:48amWe went off school on the 16th, and I didn’t do much in the holidays, I was tired. I’ve just finished my first term at Secondary School, what about you?
As for favourite monsters, I think I agree with you. If I had to choose, your choices would be the same as mine! The Peg Dolls look epic, the Flood are just freaky, the Silence are the deadliest monster the Doctor’s faced yet, and the Jennifer Monster just looked horrible!
Commander Kaagh
January 8th, 2012 - 9:13amSo when do you have holidays again? Mine are in Easter, but I’ll be going to ScQotland at the end of February to check out the schools and all that! Oh and I also thought, when they bring out MI set 3, I don’t think they should be available as single cards straight away, or else everyone will buy from there instead of the packs!
BOOBOO JR
January 8th, 2012 - 9:32amI’m really not sure when we have holidays again, but I just hope they come soon! And I agree, they shouldn’t bring Set 3 out as individual cards straight away, at least give people a chance to buy a few packs!
Commander Kaagh
January 8th, 2012 - 9:36amExactly. And hopefully it will be the set that I will complete!
BOOBOO JR
January 8th, 2012 - 9:43amSame!
Commander Kaagh
January 8th, 2012 - 9:45amWe are probably the two people on this page that we wrote the most comments. Maybe about 40!

Commander Kaagh
January 7th, 2012 - 7:06pmThanks.
Commander Kaagh
January 7th, 2012 - 7:07pmOh did you check my cards? Just scroll down.
BOOBOO JR
January 7th, 2012 - 7:11pmAre you Dalek Supreme, because his are the only ones I can see?
Commander Kaagh
January 7th, 2012 - 7:13pmYes I am. First StetsonsAreCool, then Dalek supreme now Kaagh. And I’m the person from Greece remember?
BOOBOO JR
January 7th, 2012 - 7:18pmYeah, I know about the Greek thing, didn’t realise you were StetsonsAreCool and Dalek Supreme. Anyway, looks like you have a good selection of cards there!
Commander Kaagh
January 7th, 2012 - 7:20pmyes thanks. Also card 259 The Flood. Remember StetsonsAreCool said he was scared of it? Well, I hid it… In Scotland!!
BOOBOO JR
January 7th, 2012 - 7:21pmI remember that, I was wondering what you did with it! Great hiding place !!!
Commander Kaagh
January 7th, 2012 - 7:24pmI know, but I didn’t hide it. My cousin did haha!
Commander Kaagh
January 8th, 2012 - 1:53pmI’ve done a mistake. Krynoids are already as a card!
Commander Kaagh
January 8th, 2012 - 2:21pmI just discovered that the infinites will not be in the single card shop for sure. But we still dont know about the special editions, most likely the Amy autograph will not be but the Rory, the doctor and the exploding TARDIS could be.
BOOBOO JR
January 8th, 2012 - 2:24pmWhere did you find that out?
Commander Kaagh
January 8th, 2012 - 2:28pmOn the doctor who monster invasion issue 17 page. Someone had sent an email and they replied that they will not have because only a few printed. So surely that will happen to the Amy autograph.
Booboo Jr Jr ( A Link To The Doctor Who )
January 10th, 2012 - 5:07pmI agree with all of them except wooden king 3d AND wooden queen 3d. Make a wooden people 3d.
dw2005
January 10th, 2012 - 5:30pmI’d rather there not be any cards on the christmas special.

Commander Kaagh
January 7th, 2012 - 7:14pmThanks anyway!
Commander Kaagh
January 6th, 2012 - 6:01pmBooboo I just want to ask in issue 6 there is a slamdown with Gangers VS Scarecrows. If the Gangers won, then what was down in the corner as a card?? It couldn’t have been Gangers cause set 2 wasn’t out.
BOOBOO JR
January 6th, 2012 - 6:05pmNothing was there, they just left it as a Card hadn’t been made yet.
Dalek Supreme
January 6th, 2012 - 9:39amWhen is set 3 supposed to come out?? I hope it’s in summer so I can complete set 2 and start properly set 3, as I live in Greece. Can someone please tell me?
Commander Kaagh

Oh and I am Dalek supreme I just changed my name.

Doctor Who Crazy Ross Muscroft
January 4th, 2012 - 7:51pmI Love the ‘Where’s the Doctor’ bit. I think next weeks ‘Battle Of Demons Run’ will be good! The only downside is, it’s £2.60 (as always) but I think its a bit expensive! I mean a price between £2.10- £2.50 would be best but! I love this magazine!

December 29th, 2011 - 12:03amhay d,d,c 67 i just wanted to tell you that monster invasion mags are gona finish at issue 52.
Admiral Icktheus (Super fish)
December 29th, 2011 - 12:06amWell that’s not entirely true. Plans could change. Battles In Time was meant to go up to 52 but managed to make another 18 issues. And yes I have heard that issue 30 will be part of the launch for the final set, but again plans could change.

I’ve e-mailed them asking about it, apparently there was a problem with my account that stopped them being sent out. Thats suposively sorted, and I should be recieving Issues 13 – 18 all in one go so I can catch up. I was told they sent them out First Class way before Christmas, and they’re still not here! I don’t know what else to do?
