Its that time of year again with SDCC 2016 about to start
Wednesday saw previews night between 6-9 pm, that’s 2-5am in the morning for people in the UK.
From what we can see nothing new was on show.
It starts on Thursday at 9.30am which is 5.30pm in the UK so no late night waiting for any information.
If anything is on show it should soon become clear.
The only Doctor Who items we know of so far are the 2 Titans, Ghost 12th Doctor and Glitter Tardis, Titan Comics, an electronic 20 questions Tardis, 5.5 “x 7” giant mug and Rory’s Story Cubes.
This year we have noticed the “exclusive” title has been dropped in many cases and replaced with “first to market” which means it is only sold there first.
I suspect all eyes (where Doctor Who is concerned) will be on the Underground Toys Stand where, assuming its on show, something “big” is coming (and no its not the mug)…
The
July 21st, 2016 - 8:15pm12th doctor figure = Very disappointed – would it have killed them to paint the jacket red.
11th Doctor = Again pretty dissapointed. Its just a regular 11th Doctor figure.
10th = same as the above.
9th = same as the above
War = already got it. But is it just me or is scarf a different colour.
8th = Again I already have it.
7th = Can’t see anything new – just a regular 7th doctor figure (which I’ve got)
6th = Like the figure but it’s already out.
5th = Again can’t see anything new – just regular 5th doctor figure
4th = great figure and variant but its only a slightly different colour scheme
3rd = Like this varant
2nd = Like it – from two doctors
1st = lovely variant
So overall when you rely look at it , its not actually worth it.
booboo
July 21st, 2016 - 8:17pmyou assume that everyone has everything
it will be well worth it for new / casual collectors who dont have many/any of the above
DoctorSong2016
July 21st, 2016 - 8:19pmSeven has green on his trousers but there is no worth in that variant.
Six has a different colour scheme
I’m fairly sure War has a black jacket and grey scarf…
But it’s quite disappointing…
DoctorSong2016
July 21st, 2016 - 8:20pmThat said, I don’t have every Doctor and it would be a good set for me to buy but I’m not paying 150 for it so I’ll probably pass
booboo
July 21st, 2016 - 8:26pmare you in the UK? you know we are talking dollars here not £’s
DoctorSong2016
July 21st, 2016 - 8:28pmI know, but it’ll still probably be like 100 quid, which I’m still not prepared to pay, I can live without those particular variants.
booboo
July 21st, 2016 - 8:30pmi dont think it will be
i would like to see if it has a CO or UT logo on it
remember the B&M sets are £15 in the UK and $40 in the USA, every Character item exclusive to toys r us is much ore expensive in the USA
DoctorSong2016
July 21st, 2016 - 8:32pmI get that but after the prices of things like the Curator set, I’m doubtful.
The Living Shadow
July 21st, 2016 - 9:27pmThe war Doctor appears to be wearing a much darker outfit. That could be the lighting though…
Jordan Scott
July 21st, 2016 - 8:12pmI’m annoyed that they’ve used the old Matt Smith head sculpt when theres no reason they couldn’t have used the new one, and that they havent made a new capaldi as that one is far too tall and looks out of place! Apart from those two – absolutely love it!
Nicholas
July 21st, 2016 - 8:10pmFrom what I can make out written on the box
1. Web Planet
2. The Two Doctors
3. The Three Doctors (the box appears to say The Time Monster though but this figure has a bow tie from the 3 doctors)
4. Logopolis
5. unsure
6. Reel Time (apparently it’s painted differently but it’s hard to make out the episode written)
7. Ghost Light
8. Night of the Doctor
W. Day of the Doctor
9. Parting of the Ways
10. The Shakespeare Code
11. The Beast Below
12. Time Heist (although the box says Deep Breath but it clearly isn’t)
100000BC
July 21st, 2016 - 8:51pmI think 5 says “The Awakening” but I’m not 100% sure. The real time Doctor has a lot more detail on the waistcoat (the original was plain blue) but ‘Real Time’ is the only episode that could possibly be written for him (there seems to be a note at the bottom explaining what Real Time is – handy publicity for BF there!)
100000BC
July 21st, 2016 - 8:10pmLooks like 4 repeat figures for me… Therefore hoping the set isn’t much more than £100 in the UK.
The Moment
July 21st, 2016 - 8:06pmDoes the 9th and 10th doctor have bicep movement?
IAmTheDoctor
July 21st, 2016 - 8:08pm9 will have but 10 doesn’t. They’re just rereleases unfortunately.
The Moment
July 21st, 2016 - 8:09pmIs it me or does 10s hair look different
IAmTheDoctor
July 21st, 2016 - 8:11pmNo, it appears to be the same figure from the B and M three packs.
IAmTheDoctor
July 21st, 2016 - 8:06pmNo new articulation… Thats a shame. Hope we get 2-3 more collector series items… 🙁

TheYetiNextDoor
July 21st, 2016 - 8:05pmwhat an utter treat for fans of the first three doctors! excellent choices that show some real variation. very, very excited.
John Smith 1963
July 21st, 2016 - 8:05pmPersonally, not interested in this set. Already have each Doctor an that’s fine by me. Really hoping there’s some new single figures as we. Or is this set going to be all?
Anonymous
July 21st, 2016 - 8:07pmI don’t think at this point anyone knows if this is all we’re getting.
TravellingTimeLord
July 21st, 2016 - 8:02pmThis looks excellent although I’m hoping there’ll be some more individual figures from Series 9.
Anonymous
July 21st, 2016 - 8:04pmI was hoping for more s9 figures too 🙁

July 21st, 2016 - 8:02pmMy poor wallet,love this set.
Antonio Zambonini
July 21st, 2016 - 8:01pmJust found out that all the doctors apart from capoldie are verants 🙂
Anonymous
July 21st, 2016 - 8:04pmNo, 4’s the Season 18 one. 5’s the one from the Resurrection set. 6 is the Real Time one. McCoy’s the one from the first 11 Doctors set. 8’s Night Of The Doctor. And all the NuWho ones have been released before.
Fredfez
July 21st, 2016 - 8:06pm10 and 11 are not unfortunately
Finlay McLaren
July 21st, 2016 - 8:11pm4 has a different scarf, 6 has a different waistcoat and 7 has different trousers so they are very different as apposed to what ‘Anonymous’ says.
Antonio Zambonini
July 21st, 2016 - 8:12pmLook on twitter and you see from underground toy watch that they said it is in the comments
Anonymous
July 21st, 2016 - 8:13pmYeah, but changing the trousers a bit, adding baby blue to a waistcoat and extending the purple on the scarf isn’t reallt much of a variant. I wouldn’t buy that as it’s’ own figure. On the whole it’s a bit of a poor set.
Cyberman Bill
July 21st, 2016 - 8:17pmSorry they’re not at all
DoctorSong2016
July 21st, 2016 - 8:17pmSix is completely different from the other real time figure. That one is just one shade of blue throughout whereas this one is darker blue and light blue. I think it’s poor too, the only figures that really call out to me are 1, 6 and 8 (I don’t have an 8 figure yet)
Anonymous
July 21st, 2016 - 8:31pmI will admit that six is different, but not as different as you’re making out that it is. I, personally, think the worst part is that some of these figures are ones that everyone already has. They even reuse McCoy from the original set (yes, the trousers are different, but that doesn’t really make much of a difference).
Antonio Zambonini
July 22nd, 2016 - 12:09amWell its true there just repaints but end of the day its something to least aperat due to the fact we got no new figures this year but even I given up on them as just long wait

Dang this is awesome! I am definitely getting it! $150 is well worth it.
DoctorSong2016
July 21st, 2016 - 8:10pmReally? I don’t think so, I would find £50 or £60 reasonable, if they were new sculpts I wouldn’t mind but if it’s going to be 150 then I’ll pass.
Anonymous
July 21st, 2016 - 7:59pmFor me there are only five of throes figures worth getting – so I won’t be be buying.

July 21st, 2016 - 7:58pmTroughton is an aged up version from 2 Doctors, McGann from Night, Pertwee Red jacket, Colin in blue outfit, Baker in Logopolis

July 21st, 2016 - 7:56pmThe bio for 12 says he’s from Deep Breath but that is clearly not the case…

July 21st, 2016 - 7:52pmDefinitely a Doctors set. I’m excited! Very excited to have a huge set like this finally once more. Will probably be the £100 mark with Collector Series prices but we can hope it’s less.
But, with the fact I have so many Doctors already, I really hope pretty much every Doctor is a variant, or a Doctor I haven’t got, otherwise sacrificing a new line of figures just so one large set can return would be, well in my opinion not worth it.
Don’t get me wrong it’s great news, but as absolutely amazing it is to see that UT (and CO) are willing to invest in something we thought we’d never see (as lets be honest you’d only expect this in glory days of CO) I feel as though it may be a waste of an opportunity to do something different. Eg: Investment in Series 9 figures, investment in Classics.
I am really excited nonetheless as the last time a large scale set like this was released feels like an eternity away. This gives me a sense of nostalgia that makes me feel sad that this will almost certainly be the last of its kind…

booboo
July 21st, 2016 - 7:48pmok tried the direct approach to see if we can get help finding out what’s in this
IAmTheDoctor
July 21st, 2016 - 7:42pmI really hope these aren’t just a bunch of rereleases.. If they are then I seriously hope we get to see more new figures in the next few days released. If they’re just the same figures that were in the original then its going to be so disappointing!
Anonymous
July 21st, 2016 - 7:44pmIt’s almost a fact now that Pertwee’s Doctor is from the Three Doctors, but I don’t know about the other Doctors.
DoctorSong2016
July 21st, 2016 - 7:44pmIt looks as though they are. It seems as though some of them are decent rereleases/repaints but if this set is £150, I’ll pass.
booboo
July 21st, 2016 - 7:47pm$150 dollars, and i reckon the UK price will be much cheaper
remember the B&M sets are $40 in the states but only £15 here
IAmTheDoctor
July 21st, 2016 - 7:47pmI really hope that at least some of the figures are new, especially 10… he’s in dire need to an update!
Anonymous
July 21st, 2016 - 7:40pmI doubt there’s more to come, but this is as good as I think it could get.
DoctorSong2016
July 21st, 2016 - 7:36pmI though the unreleased/unfinished/prototype stuff was usually behind glass. It was last year and all the old stuff was out in the open. Is it possible that this is on sale at SDCC and hasn’t been announced and that we have more to come?
IAmTheDoctor
July 21st, 2016 - 7:45pmI think we’ll see a couple of new single carded figures to go along with the 12 doctors set. Thats only if these are all rereleases.
DoctorSong2016
July 21st, 2016 - 7:48pmI really think they all are rereleases sculpt wise. There’s obviously the red Pertwee but everything else could literally be a straight rerelease.
