      what does the 10th look like in hand?

    • Dalek Control

      July 22nd, 2014 - 12:18pm

      I’ll see what I can do about pictures. Personally I think the 10th Doctor and the Dalek look great in hand. Hopefully more stock will arrive with some of the other figures from the range.

      Argos must have exclusive rights to sell these before anybody else. Even the bbc shop hasn’t put them up for sale yet.

    • booboo

      July 22nd, 2014 - 12:45pm

      not that

      they usually get stock flown in especially which is much quicker than boat

      it can be a condition of sale that stock is available at catalogue launch (even if its only a few figures per branch)

      this has happened many times before

      I,ve a feeling the amy figure might be harder to acquire if argos stock, at first, but generally depending on the store I:e- Argos extra,i,ve been able to buy the lot in one go. They get a few to start with but usually by the time they get the full collection you can usually pick up from any toy stockists.

      LEGO does the same thing. It’s out on Amazon or even Ebay, big brand stores, then in a few months it’s on the official store. I think it’s to do with some prices because LEGO usually sells their products for more money than others. I’m not sure about the BBC store mind

      Well to be honest Capaldi’s full costume isn’t a spoiler. I mean, when you watch Deep Breath, the costume isn’t exactly going to be a major part of the story.

    The likeliness are horrible, not as bad as the packaging though. looks bland and boring. I don’t know why they made this range. Anyone who collects probably didn’t like or in my case even collect the 3.75 inchers. Why don’t they do the clever thing and ditch these cop out 7.99 things and go back to doing 5″. Clearly forbidden planet has the right idea.

    Rant over…

      July 21st, 2014 - 8:37am

      I think what you need to remember is these are “CHILDREN” toys not really collectors items and the packaging looks amazing from a child’s point of view and will make them want it even more! now if you don’t want to collect them then don’t but other people don’t think like you do so some love them and some hate them but these are children’s toy really.

      anyway there’s still some good ones there like genesis/Asylum Daleks but its up to you.

    I’m not really sure these are worth 7 pounds. .-. They seem to be getting worse, I really thought wave one was brilliant, wave two was okay, but this wave? The Tenth Doctor doesn’t look anything like David and the same goes for Amy Pond. But the Daleks look brilliant!

  • RhysCH

    July 20th, 2014 - 11:28am

    My ideal wave 3 would of been
    – Bad Wolf/ The Moment (with The Moment box)
    – Amy Pond
    – 10th Doctor (With Sonic)
    – War Doctor (With Sonic)
    – 12th Doctor (With Sonic)
    – Rory Williams
    Chase Variants:
    – Rory in different body warmer/ shirt
    – 10th Doctor in glasses
    – Bad Wolf/ The Moment with glowing eyes

      I don’t think it’s that random, there’s Amy and asylum dalek from series 7, 10th doctor from 50th and I think the classic Dalek might have been part of the heritage line but they threw it in anyway and there’s just the capaldi and smith rereleases

    I’m guessing the re-release of the Eleventh in tweed and Twelfth regenerated are because they are the best sellers, but that means future waves are always going to be half over taken by re-releases like the sonic screwdriver Waves.

    I was in Forbidden Planet today and even they said they have too much over stock of the Tenth and Eleventh screwdrivers from previous Waves, they only order more because people want the latest Wave version, which seems more a packaging thing to me.

      Technically – and only technically – these versions of Amy and the Doctor were never released as 5″. And I believe they said Daleks would be the exception to that rule.

      we should point out Character have never said anything officially

      From time to time some of there employees give out information which a lot of the time turns out to be false (but sometimes in a good way)

    I’m going to get Amy, 10, Asylum Dalek x2, Genesis Dalek (maybe 2), but not the re releases!
