      Yeah, but I would love Bessie. They have got to have a TARDIS somewhere as well

    Does the subscription go like this:
    Issue 1
    Issue 2 and 3
    Issue 4 and 5

      These collections run for quite a while. Their Marvel one made it to 200, and they had plans to continue on well beyond that if they hadn’t been stopped by Marvel themselves.

      I have no doubts this collection could run for a long time too. The current plans go to 2016, and by that point we’ll be well into the Twelfth Doctor’s era, we might even be looking towards the Thirteenth Doctor. There will be plenty of characters to release, the only problem I could see is if they announce the line up too quickly and as a result take ages to release the

    Just this from my newsagent in Swindon; gotta say, the quality of the figurine is far worse than the test set issue. Hopefully the quality improves again with the monsters.

      several people have had just Β£2.99 taken which is clearly for issue 1, would imagine its because its the same amount for everyone including premiums subs

      2 and 3 should be together, of course if the current delays continue then it is possible you’ll get the first three together (because they’ll have thrown the first issue in with your second delivery and your first gift).

      that would make sense, i wonder if they are sending these out in boxes like the star trek ships to avoid any damage

      Yes…they have modified it from the test run figure and of the two its slightly better but still weak. I suppose the human figures will be more difficult.
