    B&M by Morrison’s in Basingstoke have got History of the Daleks Set 13 The Five Doctors in. Neither of the other sets are in according to the staff, who did not even know this set was on the shelfs.

    Went to Southend again yesterday, still nothing. I asked and a very nice lady checked for me, none in stock and none even on order. She said it was a possibility closer to Christmas, otherwise I should check bigger stores. I’ve ended up getting the #14 for £33 on eBay, with the amount I’m spending on fuel, I might as well just keep an eye out for the cheaper sets on eBa. I’d even take the Death Zone Dalek on its own tbh.

      Not sure if it’s changed in the last couple of years, but I couldn’t get anything at Southend. They didn’t seem to stock them at all. I used to have to go to canvey instead.

    Popped into Falkirk and Stenhousemuir stores yesterday evening and no stock there yet.

    Thanks to Euan Bird, I got the Five Doctors set in Stirling, plenty of stock left of all three as of 18:00 yesterday.

    Cumbernauld store had 6+ Necros Daleks but no other new sets.

    There are no other new sets in stock just the 9th Doctor sets from the last wave in the sale.

    • Done with this range now

      September 8th, 2023 - 2:09pm

      I know exactly what you mean. Really takes the fun out of collecting something when you have to keep hunting round dozens of stores trying to find them when the distribution is so haphazard and wasting so much time and money hunting round only to keep been disappointed.
      Think I’m done with this line now too. B and M and Character can just do one now cos this whole Hunger Games set up for every wave is just a total joke and I’m sick of it!!

    • Who is who?

      September 8th, 2023 - 2:18pm

      I wouldnt give up hope just yet because there none in the main warehouse, it could just mean they are at distribution centres, on a lorry to the store or in the store warehouse.

      funny that i checked today and it still said there was still stock available of all 3 sets at the central warehouse in the north and my store has more stock on the way so id take whoever is saying this with a pinch of salt.

      Looking back at comments it appears a troll in impersonating another well know person.

      Boohoo this thread and site is worth its weight in gold (or even its weight in a Tardis set), None of us including you can control B&M or the scalpers, collecting is always emotive.

      This site helped lad me to 2 of the three sets, so I am very grateful. Long may it stay active

      Again it’s not your fault booboo, and the map is a godsend. It’s got me stuff in the past. But this process of dashing around like a **** is no fun at all. Maybe we could should become a scalping co-operative where one of us goes to a different store and buys everything and then sells it on through the co-operative at the retail price plus p and p 1 per customer or something, or better still gets them direct from b and m and then pays all moneys back to them.

      For the record still nothing in Lakeside Doncaster but Edenthorpe has about 6 Dalek sets left.

      I understand where you are coming from, i can access 9 stores in a round robin trip and nothing in any of them, what is strange all those stores are on main logistics routes and all stores on those routes both before and after those stores have had stock!

      September 8th, 2023 - 6:59pm

      Gotta admit that I admire your commitment! The Calcot store is on my commute and is usually pretty reliable for each wave, so I’m confused as to what has happened this time

    I agree these sets seem particularly popular, certainly in comparison to some of last years offerings. Personally this is the first time I’ve completed a ‘full wave’ of B&M releases, even picking up the Tardis set which I don’t normally go for. Luckily, my local store has had all three in. Still though, ultimately neither B&M nor Character really care who buys the sets, be it genuine fans or people thinking they can made a good profit via online marketplaces. They merely want to get a return on the investment they put into them. There may be individuals within both companies that do care, but the companies themselves aren’t set up to unfortunately.

    FIFE ALERT

    At approximately 8:00 pm Thursday 7th, Glenrothes had around 10 of the 5 Doctors set, and around 4 of the Revelation sets. The TARDIS sets are all sold out.

    Kirkcaldy retail has loads of the last wave of the 3 figure packs – all £7.99 each, but could not see any of the new wave.

  • Darren

    September 7th, 2023 - 8:12pm

    I wouldn’t say that this wave has been any more popular than previous waves, but definitely the most frustrating to track down.
    This is made worse by B&M’s internal ordering, distribution, and warehousing system with store staff not having a clue what’s coming when, and where it is.
    No longer the ability for customers to phone a store to check before potentially making a wasted journey.
    As for the shelf clearers, all I’ll say is the more the market is flooded with sets the cheaper they will get. A lot of TARDIS sets are around £45 now which means after fees it’s hardly worth the effort.

    Lucked out today in Scotland. Got to the Clydebank store and while there was nothing on the shelves I found an unopened case of Tardis’ on a cart and the lovely staff opened it for me. Picked up one, and it looks as if they are about 8 to a case. So there were about 7 left in the box.

    This was about 1pm today and I assume they would have gone out later this afternoon. No sign of the Dalek packs, but that doesn’t mean they weren’t also residing on a cart waiting to go out.

    Also, at the Dumbarton store I found both the Dalek packs, plenty of these, but no Tardis sets.

    Good luck to anyone who is looking and manages to get them. Beat the scalpers.
