      I was able to get 1 from WhoNA for my niece(I’m in the US). I actually like it better than the original red & blue version I got for another niece. It looks more “lived in”, less glossy (I’d say it looks even better than in the pictures). The gray & black version wasn’t available here. I’d actually have liked to pick one up for myself, but they are hard to get here, so WhoNA had to limit the number sold to each customer to 1.

    • Dalek The Supreme

      May 9th, 2013 - 1:01pm

      Why not a Roman Rory? They could just take the head and hands off one of these Rory figures and slap it on the Roman Auton. Easy as pie, and not the Greek letter pi.

  • Professor When

    April 26th, 2013 - 10:00pm

    Hey hey hey, at least they are doing more 5 inch figures! Everyone has been complaining that the line has finished, so they make a final variant, and people- wait for it -complain! I know it’s not the greatest thing in the world, but it’s still a figure! Besides, the 3.75 inch line is looking pretty cool now 🙂

      People complain because it’s a useless variant, and I would’ve been happy with just the two original Rory’s. They easily could’ve released the Rory head on the Roman Auton body and made Rory the Roman.

    • Dalek The Supreme

      May 9th, 2013 - 1:02pm

      I think they would be about the same size as Banakafawhatever-his-name-was.

    You wait and wait and wait for them to release a good figure, and then they release one you already have with an inferior colour scheme.

    Seriously, if they’re going to repaint him atleast make the colours accurate ! ❗

    • Radburn

      April 25th, 2013 - 10:52am

      Yes, postage too expensive! Still want one, but hoping to get a viable cheaper source such as Thinkgeek if they get it in?

    • booboo

      April 25th, 2013 - 10:55am

      always get my USA stuff from them if i can, they do a $10 options which is about £6, takes a while but big difference, you can only get small value items though or you can get stung for vat and the Royal Mail £8 fee

      Just hope they get Rory, they dont seem to do a lot with figures

    • Radburn

      April 25th, 2013 - 10:42pm

      After checking with Whona it seem’s they won’t be getting anymore in stock. I really hope this hasn’t already become an instant rarity?

    To those complaining saying ‘he hasn’t worn these colours’, he has. Cold Blood/The Hungry Earth. Pretty much the only screen accirate figure of him that has been released.

    • Sam Bentley

      April 25th, 2013 - 7:50am

      He wears a brown jacket in CB/THE not black. Only issue is it doesn’t have the chequered pattern on the shirt.

    • Fezmeister

      April 25th, 2013 - 8:10am

      The brown jacket he wears is much darker. Plus, as you said, the shirt is completely wrong.

    • Esterath

      April 25th, 2013 - 8:13am

      Rory didn’t wear a brown jacket in THE or CE, It was black. And the shirt was chequered.

    • Fezmeister

      April 25th, 2013 - 4:09pm

      Yes, it was brown. The actual product can be seen at the site linked to above, and it doesn’t look very dark.

    • Sam Bentley

      April 25th, 2013 - 4:17pm

      I believe that is also a mock up, as I remember when the news of a third Rory figure was coming out someone made up that as it was the rumoured colour scheme. You never know the final product could be more screen-accurate. Though I doubt that it will have the chequered pattern on the shirt, do you?

    • booboo

      April 25th, 2013 - 4:20pm

      the image on whona is the actual product, our mock up is very close.

      I have seen a picture of the figure and its more or less as pictured here.

    • Sam Bentley

      April 25th, 2013 - 4:29pm

      Still, it is from CB and THE. And I thought he was talking about the picture in the thumbnail! Oh, well.

  • Dalek The Supreme

    April 25th, 2013 - 12:22am

    This is the most pointless figure since the re-releases of Series 6. Would’ve been better if they’d used the head of the Rory figure and stuck it on a Roman Auton for Rory the Roman. It would’ve been just as cheap, probably, and far more intelligent.
