Robert Harrop Doctor Who Range on the Way
Robert Harrop Doctor Who Range on the Way
Robert Harrop, known for high quality figurines and models have recently taken on what looks like an initial 3 year licence to produce Doctor Who products.
Needless to say this offers huge potential for the serious collector with endless possibilities.
You can see their work at www.robertharrop.com
You can also follow them on twitter or facebook (we believe they are going to set up a separate Doctor Who page soon).
We await more news with interest…
With thank to Robert Harrop Designs LTD

March 14th, 2014 - 6:22pmThese will be of extremely high quality & limited to runs of around 150-200 each, hence the price tags of £40-£80 per figurine. They are delicate figurines & will really be for serious collector’s only ~ The type that can drop £1,000 on a Sonic replica & laugh about it. Price is way out of my league, but if I REALLY see something I like I may splash out on 1 or 2…

If we have classic Daleks can we have more unusual variants not just the standard grey stuff that’s all been done before.

March 14th, 2014 - 5:57pmthe glass dalek
Dalek Smith
March 14th, 2014 - 5:58pmor maybe the 60’s daleks with different attachments or movie daleks
booboo
March 14th, 2014 - 6:01pmthey are looking at the Cushing movies apparently (different licence so don’t know the score with that)
the astronaut of death
March 16th, 2014 - 9:59pmOohhhhhhh
Liam
March 14th, 2014 - 5:45pmCollectors club looks good, money off and exclusives
Will join up to that sort of thing

March 14th, 2014 - 4:29pmHarrops replied to me on twitter asking about a classic console saying:
“We’ll do the obvious characters, but we’ll also do the untouched or lesser known stuff, the classic console has come up a lot”
Sea Devil
March 14th, 2014 - 5:44pmbit of a dilemma for them here
I think a lot of people would like a classic console in scale with 5″ figures
But they are aiming for a slightly larger format from what i read
what to do eh

March 14th, 2014 - 6:27pmI hope whovever has been doing the work on the gerry anderson vehices gets let loose of some who space craft…. Id love a model of the Minnow from Space Pirates or that superb Vardan ship which opens invasion of time….make up for CO never touching classic spacecraft….
the ergon
March 14th, 2014 - 12:27pmare they going to be detachable figurines like the 3:75 range were getting now?
booboo
March 14th, 2014 - 12:30pmno these will be figurines, or statues if you like
the ergon
March 14th, 2014 - 12:44pmGreat, if thats what you want. But theres been so many ranges come and go recently, I,ll stick with the character/heritage range and the FP exclusives till i see what they bring out and how far it goes before making a decision. They did the sculpted busts and biff,bang pow things and they quickly run their course.

March 14th, 2014 - 2:48amNice! They used to make Thunderbirds Figures
Exterminator
March 13th, 2014 - 9:07pmHmmm, what’s going on? First dr who Lego and now a possible new company producing figures?
Has character options lost its licence or something?
booboo
March 13th, 2014 - 9:14pmnew company is a different market altogether, as for the rest who knows
Exterminator
March 14th, 2014 - 12:54amI just looked at the Robert harrop website and the figurines they make will be very similar to the eaglemoss collection.
The only difference is they’ll probably be bigger and cost more but they’ll be painted better and have less quality control issues than eaglemoss.
I can’t wait to see what they have in mind.
Dalek Smith
March 13th, 2014 - 6:56pmMaybe a wirrn
booboo
March 13th, 2014 - 6:58pmwould suit this type of figurine down to the ground i think but then so would a lot things
Dalek Smith
March 13th, 2014 - 7:04pmI can really see them doing inhuman shape monsters such as yeti and wirrn maybe stretching to the likes of monoids or an azal
booboo
March 13th, 2014 - 7:10pmI have a feeling they will do their market research and get a good feel for what people are looking for
personally I wouldn’t want to see endless streams of standard Daleks and Cybermen, all the stuff we have had before
Trenzalore
March 13th, 2014 - 7:10pmI’m not very familiar with them so what does everyone recon a Dalek from them would look like?
Dalek Smith
March 13th, 2014 - 7:11pmI hope they look at whats been done in the CO line
I Froze Gallifrey
March 13th, 2014 - 9:45pmPerhaps even a Krynoid in bulky form?
VespiformsSting
March 13th, 2014 - 9:49pmI cant understand why CO never did a wirrn set with the grub, a mutating noah and the imago wirrn…Im hoping Harrops will do stuff like that…..
Alex The Geek
March 13th, 2014 - 6:11pmI used to collect their Clangers, Bagpuss, Paddington Bear and Wallace And Gromit figures when I was younger and I can confirm that they do make really nice very highly detailed figures. The only thing I’m unsure of is how well they’ll do Doctor Who becuase (as far as I know) they’ve never done figures of ‘real people’ before.
Dalek Smith
March 13th, 2014 - 6:20pmI wouldn’t mind if they did props like tardis consoles and spaceships. Monsters like the Yeti would be fairly straight forward.
VespiformsSting
March 13th, 2014 - 9:46pmHarrops did a great range of bears – the yeti would be easy…add to the fact they recently produced Virgil in the London Underground on his hoverbike from Thunderbirds and you can see how all their previous work will come together in Doctor Who…
Dalek Smith
March 13th, 2014 - 5:23pmI think this is the best chance a classic TARDIS has for getting released.
Andrew
March 13th, 2014 - 5:06pmTheir stuff looks awesome and fairly priced, might pickup some of that awesome supermarionation stuff.
VespiformsSting
March 13th, 2014 - 4:22pmFigures expected this year…Dont care about full runs of anything as long as we get some classic monsters to compensate for Eaglemoss complete lack of classic stuff No company has ever completed a range of Doctors not since I collected fine art castings stuff… Harrop’s haven’t made promises unlike some…so fingers crossed for some good stuff….At the moment I’m just looked forward to some quality merchandise at last….And if it costs well I dont care as from what Ive seen Harrops items only increase in value.
Radburn
March 13th, 2014 - 4:09pmI was always seeing their Wallace & Gromit Figurines in Boots a few years back – Unfortunately they all seemed to be placed on the shelves smashed to pieces. I don’t know what Boots was doing with them ~ But I’m sure any intact ones from a Limited Run of 200 are probably worth a bit, due to the damages on the rest…
Anonymous
March 13th, 2014 - 1:56pmWow..their stuff is very expensive…for the serious collector only me thinks.
I wonder if this will be yet another company that dont complete the collection of Doctors….spend tonnes of money for yet another incomplete collection….I’m still annoyed that CO/UT never got aound to releasing an 8th Doctor blister pack…I still have the space on the shelf 😉
booboo
March 13th, 2014 - 2:02pmlooking at what they do i think they will side with monsters and the like
they also seem to do small runs
I think if the choices are good they will do Ok
JaffaCakes
March 13th, 2014 - 4:13pmHey booboo what’s the deal with the Classics line?
booboo
March 13th, 2014 - 4:56pmall we know is what everyone else knows, its supposed to be still going but at a much slower rate
2-3 figures a year maybe
JaffaCakes
March 14th, 2014 - 7:20amOh right thanks – It’s just a relief to know it’s still going, it would be awful for it to stop with such a small amount of ground covered – maybe that means they’ll put more thought into each set, who knows

March 13th, 2014 - 1:11pmThis is really great news, the size of them will make my mind up whether to buy them though, the bigger the better & I’d buy every one.

March 13th, 2014 - 12:41pmhope there is a tom baker!
VespiformsSting
March 13th, 2014 - 5:01pmOne of the guys behind this , MattB’s , favourite Dr Whos is Tom…so it looks highly possible I’d say…

March 13th, 2014 - 12:32pmI’m still trying to collect the Titan Maxi Busts and the Monsters Series coins! How will I afford these?! 🙁
KEVIN BUNKER
March 13th, 2014 - 1:10pmUnfortunately most of the maxi busts have now been cancelled so on tag up side at least you could buy these instead.
Moodbeam
March 13th, 2014 - 2:19pmI’d still like to get the Maxi busts that I’m missing. 🙂
KEVIN BUNKER
March 13th, 2014 - 8:38pmI’ve got all of the ones they’ve released to date, just waiting for the 9th Doctor & the Dalek’s now. 🙂
VespiformsSting
March 13th, 2014 - 12:22pmCan’t wait… hoping they produce some nice classic items.
The Anderson range is marvellous and I have high hopes that their Doctor Who products will be as good…..
Colin the 3rd
March 13th, 2014 - 12:21pmLooks like they do limited runs, mouthwatering prospect this
VespiformsSting
March 13th, 2014 - 12:23pmTheir products only ever gain in value….their model of Thunderbird 5 is a rarity and fetches hundreds when ever its auctioned on ebay…
Peter
March 13th, 2014 - 12:20pmvery much looking forward to see what they do with this
drjakeyoung
March 13th, 2014 - 12:12pmHmm, i might get some if they come out, as they always produce some of the best models on the planet!
