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…

    I got this today, I had it posted from America. Its a really great set. River Song looks much better in person and the chair is really cool. The walls from the Pandorica wave look much better when attached to the base.

      Cool, yes the Doctor’s new jacket from the 2011 Series is not being made into a figure (unless you count the christas adventure set) and this is becasue CO are using the Series 5 jacket for Series 6 figures. :/

      Apparently there is an “opening” underneath the base where the sixth piece can be placed but it won’t stay in place, although the other five will.
