River Song with Pandorica Chair – Pictures

2011 San Diego Comic Con Exclusive : River Song with Pandorica Chair

This item is now available to pre order from www.forbiddenplanet.com Price £22.99 Expected 22 August 2011.

Underground Toys is pleased to announce details of their 2011 San Diego Comic Con Exclusive Doctor Who item – River Song and Pandorica Chair from ‘The Pandorica Opens’

THE PANDORICA

Legend has it that the Pandorica is a prison, a cage to contain the most feared warrior in the universe. But it is all a lie – the Pandorica is a box created to contain just one person – the Doctor. When his TARDIS exploded, all parts of time and space were wiped out, never having existed.

The massed armies of all the Doctor’s foes – Daleks, Cybermen, Sontarans and others banded together and created the legends of the Pandorica, and then locked him inside it. But the Pandorica energy was a restorative, it could bring things back to life, and the Doctor piloted the Pandorica into the heart of his exploding TARDIS and set off Big Bang 2, rebooting the entire universe

RIVER SONG

Of all the people who have travelled or will travel with the Doctor, River Song is the most enigmatic of them all.

She always seems to be one step ahead of the Doctor, even when he is in her past. Nobody has been able to figure out how River knows the Doctor so well, although there have been plenty of guesses!

Although River is a force to be reckoned with, she sometimes needs the Doctor’s help – whether it’s against the Vashta Nerada or the Weeping Angels, or any of the other foes they have faced, or even will face in future. Confused? It will all become clear… one day…

      The news on Worlds in Time is being announced at the SDCC, and FP/FPi will be the only ones to get it in the UK and it won’t be until a bit after the SDCC, possibly late July/early August but that would be a guess.

    I will almost definatly have this as I already own the pandorica cube and I can open it so if I put fez doc in the chair and put the chair in the pandorica, I will have the scene complete!! I like the river (even though the hair and face together don’t look realistic)and i like it how CO put a gun with her because I lost jack’s gun from series 1 and now I only have the masters gun.
    PS: why did they change her skin tone?

I would like to see a classic time lord,omega, and a ainly master in his classic suit,oh, and some compainions would be great like a sarah jane and Sutehk two pack.
