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…

      Do you think it will come to shops and do you like this one or the one from wave 2 better? Also is the only difference the coat and is the face different as the eyebrows look more angry on this one?

      Could you please answer these as I really need to know

    • booboo

      August 24th, 2011 - 8:49pm

      this will only be available in Fp and the only difference is the coat, the paint varies from figure to figure

      this one has a jacket, gloves and apparentely (via megashorts on youtube) there’s a different belt.

      There is some exclusive merchandise such as posters clothes etc they also have an exclusive amelia pond figure there which I didn’t buy when there! It’s £9.99 and I thought it should have been £8.99! When I was there I got an exclusive programme(which is £10 but it’s worth it) 4 packs of monster invasion cards, dalek pencil and an exploding tardis poster! In my opinion it would be good to keep the bag/receipts as it will be a memory of where you’ve been! The experience itself is AMAZING and the exhibition afterwards is equally amazing
      Have fun

      By the sounds of things Argos oredered the 1A figures so they cold get them first. Judging by the figures being released in each wave, it could be that only Argos will get “1A” and everywhere else will get “B” although the two are identical (and the wave everyone claims to be “1B” is actually 1C).
