New Doctor Who B&M Sets Due September
Character Options is thrilled to announce a fresh new drop of exclusive Doctor Who figure sets, arriving on shelves at B&M stores across the UK this September. Following a blockbuster year of multiple releases for Doctor Who collectors, this autumn wave introduces four brand-new limited-edition sets, presented in the iconic 5.5-inch (14cm) scale and finished in premium Gold Seal packaging.
Exact landing dates will be confirmed shortly, but fans and collectors are advised to keep a close watch on their local B&M shelves from early September.
The autumn 2026 line-up includes:
The Twelfth Doctor & Missy Two-Figure Set (Ref: 08537)
You can see a picture of this item in its packaging at www.ebay.co.uk
Relive the dramatic tension of Series 8 with this dynamic duo. This five-piece set features the commanding and deeply principled Twelfth Doctor, portrayed by Peter Capaldi, alongside his most unpredictable nemesis: Missy, the first female incarnation of the Master. The Doctor is depicted in his classic attire and comes complete with his Sonic Screwdriver. Missy is dressed in her signature maroon tunic and long skirt, accompanied by her black umbrella and personal device accessory.
The Eleventh Doctor & Amy Pond Two-Figure Set (Ref: 08538)
Fans were able to celebrate a bold era of time travel with the fan-favourite Eleventh Doctor and his popular companion, Amy Pond. This limited-edition set captures the playful yet deadly serious incarnation of the Time Lord in his memorable, red-striped shirt and bow tie, carrying his famous Sonic Screwdriver. Amy Pond is depicted in her infamous police uniform, exactly as seen in her debut episode, The Eleventh Hour.
History of the Daleks: Paradigm V2 Set 1 (Ref: 08535) & Set 2 (Ref: 08536)
Collector demand remains high for the History of the Daleks series, and this wave delivers two distinct sets based on the purebred Dalek hierarchy created by the ancient Progenitor devices.
Set 1 (Paradigm Dalek V2): Features the blue Strategist Dalek, built for military campaign planning, alongside the orange Scientist Dalek, responsible for tech research and biological weaponry.
Set 2 (Paradigm Dalek V2): Features the sleek, red, metallic Drone Dalek, the essential foot soldier class that later rose to serve as field officers, and the yellow Eternal Dalek a foundation member of the new Paradigm
These highly detailed, limited-edition releases offer the ultimate way for fans to expand their treasured Doctor Who collections.

August 29th, 2026 - 3:35pmWhat do we think for the remaining history of the Daleks?
-Evolution of the Daleks: Thay + Sec Hybrid
-The Stolen Earth: Red Supreme + Crucible Drone
-Victory of the Daleks: White Supreme + Ironside
-Resolution & Revolution of the Daleks: Recon Scout + Death Squad Drone
-The Power of the Doctor: 2x Dark Bronze Drones
It would be nice to get Rusty and the Security Drone Daleks but they would probably be “Vortex” editions if they do ever release.

August 29th, 2026 - 4:18pmThe other one that jumps to mind is The Magician’s Apprentice where there’s a few 60s styled Daleks with modern blue eye lights. Should be a simple enough repaint.
Doctor Rob
August 31st, 2026 - 3:23pmWhat about the red alpha Dalek I missed it now if one of the sets comes up on eBay it’s 3 figures cost.
Peter
August 29th, 2026 - 2:34pmBlue and orange colour set is ideal for Glasgow Rangers fans, ha.

August 29th, 2026 - 12:08pmWhere’s Tinky Winky and Dipsy?
Mr Paul Mount
August 29th, 2026 - 11:25amA poor set of figures. Missy looks nothing like Michelle Gomez and those Daleks look as dreadful and ugly now as they did during their mercifully-brief life on TV.
Peter
August 29th, 2026 - 2:37pmI have to agree. Easy pass for me (orange and blue Dalek set is a maybe… if I see it reduced at some point in future). Those Daleks really do have ‘humps’, don’t they?

August 29th, 2026 - 10:26amsadly once initial novelty fades they’re left on shelfs, my stores have lots of revenge sets discounted and still not selling, this is why b@m have only placed half of the normal order amounts
Scotel
August 29th, 2026 - 1:15pmWhat’s your source on it being halved? The factory has a minimum order quantity which given that a lot of shops never get them in the first place doesn’t really match up with what we see on the shelves.

September 2nd, 2026 - 3:34pmI’m sure Al said less sets made on GB, I can’t remember if he said an amount or not
Summer
August 29th, 2026 - 10:13amI love all of these, but I was hoping we will get the 80s version Cyberman in a 3 pack how cool would that be? but I’ve also got the Peter Capaldi figure that I always wanted the one from heaven sent with Clara and Missy have fun. Everybody have a great weekend.
Pela Don
August 29th, 2026 - 10:03amI’m really pleased with the Eleventh Doctor and Amy Pond set. The Eleventh Hour is one of my favourite ever episodes and this new set is different from the Eleventh Doctor Crash Set. Thank you, Character Options.

August 29th, 2026 - 1:58amPLEASE CAN YOU TELL ME WHY THE WHITE SUPREME PARADIM DALEK IS MISSING FROM THE SETS
Scotel
August 29th, 2026 - 7:19amDaleks have always been twin packs, so if you have two packs that means four out of the five.
BiggerOnTheInside
August 29th, 2026 - 8:14amI hope we’ll either get a Doctor/ Dalek pack (like the 5 Doctors) with the Supreme or a Dalek twin pack with the Supreme and a metallic Paradigm.
War Chief.
August 29th, 2026 - 9:30amBut the Supreme is more important than, say, the Scientist Dalek…
Loobop
August 28th, 2026 - 9:54pmThat missy smiling figure well never be as scary as the big chief studio tenth doctor in pyjamas smiling head or his tonner doll which my mum ruined for me by saying he looks more like julian clary lol.
Sky
August 28th, 2026 - 8:37pmRonald McDonald is going to sue them for stealing his likeness for missy lol
War Chief.
August 28th, 2026 - 10:06pmLol…
Dalek Steve
August 28th, 2026 - 8:28pmMissy looks like the only difference is she has a white blouse and the twelfth has a dark blue coat so I may buy it the other set I can’t see any differences at all so no .The Daleks have a metallic look to them so I’ll go for them
Button
August 28th, 2026 - 8:20pmI’ve been waiting for a Metallic Red Dalek Drone since Asylum of the Daleks aired, I did own the one that came in the three pack with the Supreme and Bronze but I think there might have been a little confusion during the design process for the set as that Metallic Drone was portrayed to be an inmate of the Asylum and had that beautiful metallic red smothered with a black wash while those one screen were pristine and never in the asylum,
Aka
August 28th, 2026 - 7:40pmTerrible choices
Purple Duke
August 28th, 2026 - 7:29pmYAY!!! An Eternal in a metallic finish seen in Big Finish’s Victory of the Doctor! Surprised noones pointed that out yet.
War Chief.
August 28th, 2026 - 7:22pmSo when are these actually coming out…?
Some say in Sept, but there is talk of mid October…
Nicholas Saunders
August 28th, 2026 - 7:17pmThe Daleks look more metallic than the original issue, but other than that? And are there are differences between the other releases from their original issue? Thanks for the info
NickD
August 28th, 2026 - 7:41pmJust repaints. No new tooling.
toptimelord
August 28th, 2026 - 6:58pmWould have been nice for some slight varient figures at least but these are the exact same figures as the originals?
Nath
August 28th, 2026 - 7:35pmI think they have redone their heads in that new plastic definitely looking like they have more detailing than the original especially the 12th
Joe
August 28th, 2026 - 6:55pmDo we know how much the Daleks will be yet?
mick
August 28th, 2026 - 7:04pm£26.99 a set
Uncle Davros
August 28th, 2026 - 6:40pmIn addition, this was probably the final chance to add a waistcoast to #12, but again, we get the plain shirt version.
Uncle Davros
August 28th, 2026 - 6:18pmSO disappointing. Bearing in mind that the Series 9 variants of #12 and the series 7B variant or #11 are now bith going for expensive prices on ebay, why not reissue those?
Instead were get the already mass produced series 5 and 8 figures, which are already cheap enough on ebay.
Lost Boy
August 28th, 2026 - 6:04pmIs that it for this year or will there be a second wave as usual?
I do think that there are a lot of releases B&M could do without much or any new sculpting or retooling – rereleases of some older History of the Daleks figures (long sold out and hard to get at a reasonable price), Cybermen, Ice Warriors, Zygons… army builders would soon snap these up especially if there were slight variants. I am still bearing the scars of being unable to find the mutant reveal flip-top Daleks. Rerelease that one!
Or maybe we won’t see this and they are just going the way of CO exclusives where you have to pay an arm and a leg for the sets.
booboo
August 28th, 2026 - 6:11pmIts all changed now and essentially shelf fillers, although i think long term collectors forget some newer collectors never got a chance to buy some of this stuff.
anthony Fgan
September 2nd, 2026 - 12:22pmonly these four sets for this year and all four are released in one hit.
Evan Downing
August 28th, 2026 - 5:52pmWhy are you all complaining? It’s better than nothing. You shall all be exterminated.!!
Maxton Lee-Smith
August 28th, 2026 - 6:09pmLove it!
Amypondfan
August 28th, 2026 - 5:50pmWhy do people have to be so negative? This is the perfect way to get the b&m sets stopped. If all the online comments are seen by b&m they may just say what’s the point.
booboo
August 28th, 2026 - 5:51pmFor the most part they are positive here compared to the rest of social media from what i have seen
Demetrius
August 28th, 2026 - 5:54pmThe comments don’t matter to B&M. What will make them say “what’s the point” is if they don’t sell. Money is what makes them make more of these, not people’s feelings.
Amypondfan
August 28th, 2026 - 6:05pmYours is the only site I look at boo boo but yes I imagine its worse elsewhere.
Michael
August 28th, 2026 - 5:39pmThink b&m might have bought these from Temu
Nath
August 28th, 2026 - 7:37pmNah mate they have used that new plastic and painted the eyes and hair they definitely are more detailed than the originals
Doctor Rob
August 28th, 2026 - 4:45pmYep waiting all year for the release then to find it’s awful the worst they have done and the daleks nearly everybody disliked scalpers knock yourself out bulk buy them too find you can’t shift them
Dalekcollector1
August 28th, 2026 - 4:39pmI don’t whether to get the figures or not as I don’t have Amy Pond in police uniform or Missy or even the 12th dr, the dalek paradigms look quite cool in terms of paint job wise, but when do you think we will get the red supreme dalek with a crucible dalek, I strongly believe they may release the ironside daleks together as there were two variants of them.
David
August 28th, 2026 - 4:04pmHuge disappointment. Nothing all year, and all the fans get are figures we all have.
Alex
August 28th, 2026 - 4:32pmITS SO SO BAD NOTHING NEW
More then 2 alphabets
August 28th, 2026 - 3:50pmFirst time can miss the lot, nothing new here, even the 11th doctors shirt is a reissue and how many missy figues can you make that look a different shade of purple. I suspect the money is going into the “collect and builds”, they have been a major hit.
Genuinely think character options will cut ties with b and m once their obligations are met.
Scotel
August 28th, 2026 - 5:28pmAs long as they keep getting paid for it they’ll keep making them but budgets are definitely getting tighter.
B&M will be the ones to decide when to pull the plug as it’s them that keep putting the orders in.
Red Five, Where Going In.
August 28th, 2026 - 3:18pmBooboo, will the Peter Capaldi figure finally be the Correct Scale, instead of way too tall as before. The Proportions look good this time at the side of Missy, but I wondered if you had altered the OriginalPhotos or is this a proper side by shot of the actual production run?
booboo
August 28th, 2026 - 3:21pmThe photos are exactly how they were sent to us by CO, i can’t see how they would have made it smaller to be honest have to wait to them in hand
Red Five, Where Going In.
August 28th, 2026 - 4:06pmYeah Booboo, if that’s an actual side by side photo of the 12th Doctor and Missy I think it’s looks spot on now height wise. I wondered if CO had retooled part of the leg section to make him smaller (Maybe as they will be re-releasing him again in Future to save on costs). Only guessing though.
mick
August 28th, 2026 - 4:51pmThere is one up for sale on eBay in the box and he still looks massive. Don’t think it’s been altered at all
Red Five, Where Going In.
August 28th, 2026 - 5:07pmAh thanks mick, I just thought if this side by side shot was untouched they might have finally shrunk Peter down to a reasonable size.
Red Five, Where Going In.
August 28th, 2026 - 3:13pmThese Sets look Great. They had been rumoured for months, so it’s Good to see the Rumours were bang on.
