Robert Harrop Daffodil Auton from Terror of the Autons

Available to order while stocks last from www.robertharrop.com

“It’s plastic, Brigadier, and any plastic artefact, anything at all, can, in the Nestene sense of the word, be alive. First a doll, then a flower.”

The Master arrives on Earth and steals the sole surviving Nestene energy unit from the National Space Museum, which was left over from the failed Nestene invasion documented in ‘Spearhead from Space’ (1970). The Nestene Conciousness is a disembodied life force, a hive mind race and a singular entity existing as energy with the ability to possess plastic.

The Master then hijacks the Beacon Hill radio telescope, which he uses as a bridgehead to channel energy from the Nestene Consciousness in space into the surviving unit. He then takes over Farrel Autoplastics, a nearby plastics factory, to build a force of Autons, plastic mannequins animated by the Nestene Consciousness, to use as soldiers for a second invasion of Earth.

Reports of the theft and hijack bring the Doctor, his assistant Jo Grant and Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart to investigate.

      Thats a first, smashed to pieces. That means they will have to make another piece. I think you have to give them your edition number. It happenedto me once when i recieved a damaged item. Hope mine fares better in transit. Surprised being so tightly packed.

      It looks like it has been run over or stamped on. It has tape on it saying “opened with care by DPD “ Harrop are aware and are making me a replacement.

    Has anyone heard any rumours about the next release?

    Still hoping for a Tereptil that was mentioned a few years ago.

      That Terileptil Leader and Android are the top of my list Joe 90 but no nothing as yet. I think after these orders are despatched we,ll hear something.

      Never expected any less. Superb figurine. It was stressful just getting that order to go through.

      Dead on 8am I got really panicky! Kept stumbling over various things, but managed to snag one in the end. This was the one I desperately wanted out of all three!

    • Mr P

      March 25th, 2022 - 8:33am

      Down to 52 now. I’ll be surprised if it’s still available by 9am. At this rate it will be the fastest selling figure so far!

    • the Ergon

      March 25th, 2022 - 8:41am

      May well be Mr. P but I was there when that Omega figurine sold out like lightening.

    • Mr P

      March 25th, 2022 - 8:59am

      Yes Ergon, that and Morbius both sold out very quickly but I think they went live at midnight as opposed to 8am. Still it’s good to see these doing so well, even if you do have to be on the ball to get one.

      I miss those Midnight preorders. Not a fan of these early risers.

    Got mine in. I notice though this time it didn,t go live till bang on 8am. I had a panic on with Paypal authentication when i realised my phone was still switched off so had to wait but it went through thank goodness. Relieved again.
