The Claws Of Axos Special Edition DVD
The Claws Of Axos Special Edition DVD
Released on 22 October 2012.
An approaching Alien spaceship is detected on monitoring equipment at UNIT HQ, where the Brigadier is entertaining two visitors – Chinn, a civil servant making a security inspection, and Bill Filer, an American agent sent to discuss the threat of the Master. The Ship lands in England and the UNIT team, joined by Hardiman and Winser from the nearby Nuton power station, meet its occupants: beautiful golden-skinned humanoids called Axons.
The Axons claim that their ship, Axos, is damaged and that they need time in which to repair it. In return, they offer Axonite, a substance that can cause animals to grow to enormous sizes and thus end food shortages. The Doctor is suspicious, and rightly so: Axos, Axonite and the Axons – whose true appearance is hideous – are all part of a single parasitic entity brought to Earth by the Master to feed on the planet’s energy.
The Doctor manages to materialise his TARDIS, with the Master on board, at the centre of Axos. He offers to link the two ships together to make one giant time machine, on condition that Axos in return helps him to take revenge on the Time Lords for exiling him to earth. This is merely a trick, however, and Axos is locked in a time loop from which it can never escape. The Doctor returns to Earth in the TARDIS, where he reluctantly admits to the Brigadier that the Master may also have escaped.

October 18th, 2012 - 5:34amWhat do you think should be the last Revisited title?
I think the Dalek Invasion of Earth l mean it is perhaps now the earliest dvd (that hasn’t been revisited) and what more can l say perhaps the best well most iconic Dalek and Hartnell Story and what more could a fan want during the 50th Anniversary that would be the perfect dvd to end 2013
gordon
October 18th, 2012 - 9:22amIt probably wont be the last revisit as dan hall mentioned at the recon event he was in talks for a possible 5th revisit. Dalek invasion of earth is an excellnt release and there is very lttle they can do to improve it. I still think something 5th doctor era is getting revisited. Russell minton mentioned on twitter about interviewing a doctor and 3 companions for a classicdw documentary. Only era that has that surviving cast members is 5th doc era so im guessing at visitation

October 18th, 2012 - 12:48pmThere were a couple of issues dureing the story (some of the altered CG effects leaked into the “proper” story).
McGann is the Doctor
October 18th, 2012 - 2:02pmI would like Pyramids of Mars the Two Doctors Mark of the Rani The Visitation Curse of Fenric the Green Death and Ark in Space revisitted. 🙂
James
October 19th, 2012 - 6:30amWhat about Earthshock? I think they’re releasing them by year if not by quality first (Inferno, The Claws of Axos)
Blake
October 19th, 2012 - 8:04amI would personally like a two doctors SE cause I havent got it yet so if they put a new DVD of that out then I will buy it. The visitation could do with some quality improvement although I wouldn’t buy it straight away because i’m not that fond of the story
McGann is the Doctor
October 19th, 2012 - 12:30pmInteresting.
I have Two Doctors and I thought the biggest thing that needs improvement is the cover.
A big orange picture of a sontaran with a little image for the two Doctors isn’t good enough. If you hadn’t heard of the story before, you would have a tough time figuring out which two Doctors it was ! Their image is so small and rubbish !
The Sontarans donot even play a crucial role in the story.
And I absolutely love the Visitation, it’s one of my favourite stories ever. Must be underrated. 🙁

October 17th, 2012 - 7:28pmA long wait for the terror of the zygons. Iam glad to see the ark in space has a special edition. Hopefully with a Liz Sladen tribute on it.
McGann is the Doctor

prof horner
October 4th, 2012 - 4:15pmHappy 90th birthday Dudley Simpson. A true great of Doctor Who.
James
September 28th, 2012 - 5:20amWhat do you prefer Loose Cannon’s Reconstructions or Animation of the Missing Episodes? I prefer the Reconstructions because there utilising what footage and photos were made from the episode but that’s just my opinion.
I ask this because after watching animation of the invasion and thinking of future releases to the classic range in terms of missing episodes (The Reign of Terror)
to be honest l would buy reconstructions made by the bbc on dvd if it helped bbc considering the cost and time that animation affords.
Blake
September 28th, 2012 - 5:36amI haven’t seen any recons just animation and audio. But I wouldn’t mind. And it would be cheaper for the bbc as u say
dr who 1999
September 27th, 2012 - 6:46pmgutted, i brought the original version around march/April,a couple of months before this announcement!
McGann is the Doctor
September 28th, 2012 - 12:40pmUnlucky m8.
But this may be a blessing in disguise, you can appreciate how much better the special edition is, if you get it.
dr who 1999
September 28th, 2012 - 6:07pmohh,yea, i am defiantly getting , should be a great release
McGann is the Doctor
October 19th, 2012 - 12:32pmGood 4 U, the cover is way better, that alone would be reason enough for me to get it.
But you get all the special features and better quality on the story itself .etc
Try amazon, they always have good price.
dr who 1999
October 19th, 2012 - 4:45pmI am pre-ordering it today,along with survival definitely getting it of amazon
pathdw98
September 27th, 2012 - 6:28pmContinuing the possible special editions debate I would like to see(in doctor order):
the aztecs, the dalek invasion of earth
the crusade(animated eps),underwater menace(animated eps),the moonbase(animated eps),
the mind robber, the green death, ark in space,
pyramids of mars, horror of fang rock, city of death, leisure hive, the visitation, earthshock, two doctors, revelation of the daleks, ghost light, curse of fenric.
Also survival ONLY if they can be allowed to release dimensions in time (for those who want it)
dr who 1999
September 27th, 2012 - 6:42pmyea, i want dimensions in time on a new survival and possibly a new curse of fenric, earth shock and dalek invasion of earth,and maybe crusade,underwater menace and moonbase with animation
dr who 1999
September 27th, 2012 - 6:44pmohh,and aztecs
McGann is the Doctor
September 28th, 2012 - 12:41pmYou want Dimensions in Time ?
It will never be released on DVD and it’s uncannonical not to mention being AWEFUL.
😛
dr who 1999
September 28th, 2012 - 6:09pmi know its awful, but i want every single Dr who episode on DVD, just so when i get them all i can hibernate in my room for a week watching every episode. one after another!
paul carter
September 28th, 2012 - 8:58pmdoes money grow on trees where you live pal?
Anonymous
September 28th, 2012 - 9:01pmHate to break it to you Dimensions in Tiem is canon. Nobody related to production has ever said it was non-canon and there is nothing in it to stop it being canon regardless of how bad it is.
It’s just one of those annoying facts we all have to live with.
dr who 1999
September 29th, 2012 - 3:39pmno, paul carter, i usually just wait to get a load of DVDs for birthday and Christmas, i usually wait months after the DVD releases to get them. Trust me, i am just as wealthy as you are.
James
September 30th, 2012 - 8:22amLooking back at the Doctor Who dvd’s l have to get, and have already bought l’d say the only DVD’s for a Special Edition release l’d like to be are:
– The Ark in Space
– The Aztecs
– The Dalek Invasion of Earth
– Earthshock
The latest a DVD Release should be ‘revisited’ is 2005.
Blake
September 30th, 2012 - 11:01amInferno was a 2006 release wasn’t it
dr who 1999
September 30th, 2012 - 7:36pmearthshock,dalek invasion of earth and Aztecs are my most wanted releases
MasterKasterborous
September 30th, 2012 - 9:47pmAccording to Dan Hall next year there will be four special editions. One of those is Inferno, I believe. The other three we’ll have to wait and see. DWM 453 will have some details of upcoming DVD releases in it as well.
Blake
September 30th, 2012 - 11:55pmWhen does issue 453 come out
James
October 1st, 2012 - 12:39pmI Know! Inferno is a 2006 release but l don’t mind as l don’t have it yet 🙂
(“four special editions”) haha maybe l’m correct then although l doubt Earth Shock would get a Special Edition. I’m waiting for an Ark in Space Special Edition as that release is perhaps the last Tom Baker if it’s after Terror of the Zygons which i’m waiting impatiently for 🙂
James
October 1st, 2012 - 12:47pmOctober 17th 2012 for the magazine, i don’t like the magazine just like l don’t like much of the merchandise in Doctor Who i’m more of a classic who fan who goes for the story but there’s the date for you.
THE ERGON
October 12th, 2012 - 11:06pmDoes anybody out there agree that they should re-release ‘The two doctors’as a special edition,but especially to remove ‘a fix with sontarans,in light of the news coverage of a certain monster who should never be mentioned again. I feel sorry for colin baker,janet fielding and the young boy in the sketch now.
gordon
October 12th, 2012 - 11:42pmDont think it needs total removal just cut from when he appears.
THE ERGON
October 13th, 2012 - 10:14amI,d totally remove it. Just the assosciation puts doctor who in a bad light. Its a real shame i know,but i,m sure everyone even the young boy wouldn,t want to be reminded of this now.
gordon
October 13th, 2012 - 12:14pmTo be honest i dont think it would make much difference. Even if they did a special edition and it was removed i doubt it would make much difference as the footage is out there on the original release and its available to watch online so if press or anybody wanted to make doctor who look bad by assosiation the footage is out there
THE ERGON
October 13th, 2012 - 6:05pmWell this particular person doesn,t want to own the original copy now. Yes its out there,but who with any moral standards wants to see ‘THAT’ face again. Its just the principle of the thing. Wipe it. On a more positive note, we,d have better picture quality for this particular story.
gordon
October 13th, 2012 - 11:45pmWhen going through the extras just dont watch it then.I dont feel 2 doctors deserves a revisit just for this reason alone. It wont be a better picture quality as its on 1″ videotape and any improvement would be minimal acording to steve roberts. They could wipe fix with sontarans but where would it end? Should they wipe over 300 episodes of top of the pops which features thousands of legendry performances just because he hosted them as well?
James
September 27th, 2012 - 5:40amDoes anyone know what Special Edition dvd’s we could see in the future, l know The Ark in Space is a very high possibility as it is the last to go through the Transform Decoder (see Restoration Team website on Varos Special Edition).
But l do wish to know it would be a shame for someone to buy an original release and then get notice what will be in little over a year perhaps a special edition.
gordon
September 25th, 2012 - 2:43pmLegacy box is next after axos se http://blogtorwho.blogspot.co.uk/2012/09/coming-soon-to-dvd-legacy-box.html
dr who 1999
September 25th, 2012 - 4:57pmi have been waiting for this release for go knows how long, yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
dr who 1999
September 25th, 2012 - 4:58pmi mean god knows how long
Blake
September 25th, 2012 - 8:37pmPersonally I think they should release the reign of terror before the legacy box.
dr who 1999
September 25th, 2012 - 8:41pmme to, i mean they have had tones more time on the reign of terror than they have on shada, so why cant they release reign first?
gordon
September 26th, 2012 - 12:01amIt should not be that far behind
Blake
September 26th, 2012 - 5:51amI know, I have a feeling it’s the next release after legacy but they were supposed to be releasing this last year I think so I think it should have come out by know
dr who 1999
September 26th, 2012 - 8:33amprobably end of January/beginning of February
gordon
October 12th, 2012 - 12:42pmReguarding dimensions in time JNT who produced it refered to it as cannon. It will never get released as part of the classic doctor who dvd range. Children in need who own the footage charge about 4k a minute (56 thousand in full) for usage of the footage (far too expensive on their dvd budget).Plus All actors had agreed to waver their fees and in exchange DIT will never be shown again or used for financial gain.
James
September 24th, 2012 - 2:05pmCan’t Wait!!! U.N.I.T Stories are brilliant and since l didn’t pick up the original release l’m sold.
Blake
September 15th, 2012 - 9:53pmbooboo, when are you going to put this on the classic series DVD list?
prof horner
September 15th, 2012 - 12:02pmGreat mind of evil pics. I can not wait for its release. Any news on the terror of the zygons release?
gordon
September 13th, 2012 - 12:20pmSome nice mind of evil pics from babelcolour’s new website http://babelcolour.com/pertwee-dvd/
Paul
September 12th, 2012 - 6:08amI would like to ask the DVD publishers just one small favour. When they call something a ‘special edition’ i wouldn’t mind if they actually spelled out what MAKES it a special edition. I mean, i have a copy i just bought recently of Claws of Axos and i might buy the SE if i knew what was special about it. I reckon the least they can do is say what makes it so special. this goes for all SEs… i mean, why is Vengeance on Varos Special either. i can’t find anything on the specs of the online stores that says about this. cheers
gordon
September 12th, 2012 - 7:31pmIts called a special edition as to not confuse some customers on what version is the newest. The special edition. The differnce between the original and special edition is the special edition has a brand new restoration and new extras (just like other companies that release special editions). And they do explain the changes between the original and special edition on the restoration team website http://www.restoration-team.co.uk/
Blake
September 6th, 2012 - 9:19amOk, so it goes vengeance on varos SE, then ambassadors, then this. Is there anymore that are confirmed after this?
gordon
September 6th, 2012 - 9:29amFor the classic releases Claws of Axons Special edition. Then that most likely is it for this year.
gordon
September 6th, 2012 - 9:46amAfter that its rumoured that its the legacy box but thats just rumoured at this time. The test discs for axos se sent out to reviewers should be popping up within the next couple of weeks so it shouldnt be too long to find out whats next
dr who 1999
September 6th, 2012 - 4:15pmdr who series 7 part 1 is scheduled after this (unless you are just counting classic dvds)
Doctor Who DVD Collector
September 8th, 2012 - 2:10pmnice avatar gordon!
gordon
September 10th, 2012 - 8:30amyeah i like it as well. i wanted to do something different from the normal dw logo saw that and thought why not
James
August 31st, 2012 - 11:58pmI’m fine with Special Edition releases coming, but only if there stories from 2002 to 2005, the earliest release still perhaps to get a Special Edition is the Aztecs and then the Dalek Invasion of Earth l’m sure l’d buy alot of ‘revisitations’ but for me releases from 2005 onwards don’t really need it if all they could add is one documentary and a better cover.
gordon
September 1st, 2012 - 1:06amOut of the early ones not yet anounced as getting rereleased up to 2005 id like
Aztecs
Ark in space
two doctors
The visitation
Green death (even though steve roberts says one currently isnt being planned)
Crusade (with animation in its own box)
Moonbase (animation and in its own box)
Horror of fang rock
Resurection of the daleks (with cgi error fixed
James
September 4th, 2012 - 7:38amWell, Resurrection of the Daleks has already been done in the Revisitations 2 Boxset but for me l only really collect the Third and Fourth Doctor stories so the Ark in Space, The Green Death and the Horror of Fang Rock would be good 🙂
gordon
September 4th, 2012 - 8:25amSorry i meant revelation
James
September 4th, 2012 - 12:41pmAhh right, l’m not to fussed with Dalek stories since l have the Davros Boxset, it would be awesome if they did something similar with the Cybermen containing the Tenth Planet and the Moon Base aswell as all the other Cybermen stories although they did make the Revenge/Silver Nemesis Boxset l doubt the bbc would bother :/
gordon
September 5th, 2012 - 11:21amNow that would be something that would be worth getting. Release it when 10th planet comes out Gives them a chance to do a revist of moonbase with animation and maybe do something with wheel in space as well and then release moonbase se and wheel in space seperatly a couple of years down the line ala the remembrance se. With the bumped up price of the box set (it would be 11 discs so the price would be bumped up ) animation should be affordable on at least moonbase and possibly wheel but then again we dont know how much thetamation are charging
dr who 1999
September 5th, 2012 - 2:42pmwhat about CROSGROVE HALL, the same team that animated “The invasion”, they might charge less
gordon
September 5th, 2012 - 3:16pmwent bust in 2009. Plus i believe the reason why they choose thetamation was is its a cheaper way form of animation. Even though cheaper it will through thetamation it will still be expensive
dr who 1999
September 5th, 2012 - 4:18pmwhat about big finish, they are working with thetamation to animate the reign of terror, is there a possibility they could do it on there own ( if they don’t charge more )
gordon
September 5th, 2012 - 5:07pmI think Big finish involvement with reign is mostlty to do with funding (they are cofunding with bbcww) more than animation
dr who 1999
September 5th, 2012 - 6:43pmin that case, thetamation is probably the best candidate to go to then.
dr who1999
August 30th, 2012 - 3:38pmi have just realised that the new series of Dr who will have a new title sequence, did anyone else know that?
MasterKasterborous
August 30th, 2012 - 4:56pmNot necessarily. Nothing has been officially said as far as I am aware.
dr who 1999
August 30th, 2012 - 8:15pmyea,the vortex at the beginning has a green hint added to it and the logo will be different every week (same logo but the logo will represent the situation and theme of that episode. For example “Dinosaurs on a space ship” would be a scale logo) and a few other changes. i suppose we will find out on Saturday anyway
gordon
August 30th, 2012 - 11:47amThere is some colour pictures of mind of evil in the new DWM fact or fiction section. (It covers mind of evil and starts on page 60)
dr who1999
August 30th, 2012 - 3:36pmwhen do you think mind of evil will be completely finished?
MasterKasterborous
August 30th, 2012 - 5:08pmStuart Humphryes has colourised the key frames of half the episode’s shots as of a few days ago. He hasn’t said how long he has been working on it exactly but he did complete some shots around Christmas last year. It will most likely be completed by late next year.
gordon
August 30th, 2012 - 11:43pmI think he will be finished some point early next year. Even though i believe he has been doing it since late last year he took about 3 to 4 months off to do something for the deleted zygons scene for that dvd. When you take into consideration in july 10th he mentioned he was about 125 days work into it. Add 40 days when he said he reached half way (165) then add that on into the future i get late february id estimate
dr who 1999
August 31st, 2012 - 11:19ammind of evil will probably be the last classic DVD in that case then (or one of the last DVDs)
gordon
August 31st, 2012 - 11:52amIf animated stories sell enough that more expensive animations are afordable perhaps not the last. With the odd revisit every now and then as well.
dr who 1999
August 31st, 2012 - 1:08pmif they need to recoulriesd and animate lots of different episodes, and they have just over a year to do it( they said November 2013, how on earth can they complete them on time?
dr who 1999
August 31st, 2012 - 1:10pmi mean reign of terror had just 2 episodes missing an that took them nearly 2 years to do.
gordon
August 31st, 2012 - 11:11pmAs dan hall mentioned back in february that the dvd range will possibly not end november 2013 dont think having it out by november 2013 should be an issue. Finding cheaper ways to animate could be a reason along with revisitation releases being popular. Heard recently that the animation process works like a production line so that 1 team works on 1 thing then another team works on another bit. For example its possible that design team finishes with reign then goes to the layout team and at that time the design team starts work on the next story
gordon
August 31st, 2012 - 11:16pmand it follows on. It may take a year but with working like this they can work on a couple of storys at a time. If the sales are healthy enough they can hopefully pay thetamation more money to employ more people and they can work faster. If sales are healthy enough i can certainly see a possibily that the range could continue maybe 3-4 releases a year
dr who 1999
August 31st, 2012 - 11:30pmthat could work, then they could start animating more episodes ( like marco polo for example ) they could have the potential.
MasterKasterborous
August 26th, 2012 - 8:41pmBooBoo I have found two errors on the List for Classic Doctor Who DVDs.
1.) On Released DVDs Shada appears
2.) On Cyberman Story DVDs Mara Tales Box Set appears
Luke
August 26th, 2012 - 8:50pmThanks, I’ve updated that. It should have been Horns of Nimon that’s been released instead of Shada so I’ve swapped those around
Blake
August 26th, 2012 - 6:28amI thought it was 12 november
Blake
August 24th, 2012 - 10:32pmWell this year (I think) has been a good year for the doctor who DVDs. We’ve gotten a range of stories, the only doctor we won’t be getting is 5, unless the visitation is quickly put on the schedule (I don’t think that will happen)
Gordon
August 24th, 2012 - 11:25pmYeah its been a good year but dont know if id have it as my favourite year. 2007,08 and 11 were all years of phenominal releases for me.
LG
August 23rd, 2012 - 3:34pmRED ALERT!I just saw some awful artwork for this dvd on AMAZON!Look it up on Amazon.co.uk and type in claws of axos special edition
booboo

dr who 1999
August 24th, 2012 - 1:21pmsame, will the Christmas special be a separate release or be part of series 7 part 2?
Gordon
August 24th, 2012 - 10:27pmI think it will be a seperate release
dr who 1999
August 24th, 2012 - 10:29pmin that case, i will just get the complete box set
John Smith
August 16th, 2012 - 7:52amBit off topic but are 2Entertain still doing the Doctor Who DVD releases? I haven’t noticed their logo on the side of the DVD cases, let alone anywhere! When I got Death to the Daleks about a month ago their wasn’t any mention to 2Entertain either! Normally it’s a quick add for their company that just has their name and some flashing lights and wierd music. What has happend to them Booboo?!
Blake
August 16th, 2012 - 8:15amI noticed that too
Gordon
August 16th, 2012 - 9:25am2entertain Ltd has been full integrated into BBC Worldwide’s Consumer Products division. Esentially the company has been restructured.There isnt any real diference with the people working on apart from less non skipable opening logos and less logos on the cover. Most folk refer to it as bbc worldwide or bbcww now. In the uk you can still get the 2e logo as its available on the reversable cover which doesnt have the god awful purple bbc logo
John Smith
August 16th, 2012 - 11:09pmWhat’s so wrong about the purple BBC logo?
Gordon
August 16th, 2012 - 11:40pmIts an eyesore and it doesnt match up with the older black bbc logo
dr who 1999

August 28th, 2012 - 8:32pmWhy is it such an eyesore? I think it’s nicer than the boring white one. And anyway, the first few releases had the BBFC rating on the side, the early 2|Entertain ones had a black logo, then a white one. Then the white rectangle at the bottom of the DVD case disappeared. Colony in Space and Day of the Daleks had the Irish clasification on the side. They hardly all match up so changing the BBC logo is not a huge change.

August 28th, 2012 - 9:53pmIts an eyesore because it really stands out in a bad way as its far too colourful. And the change from white to purple is far too drastic compared with the 2e logo which is black and white. As for the bbfc logo the only ones still got them are ark in space and lost in time and ark is most likely getting the special edition treatment next year. As i always reverse the covers the irish logos and the missing 2e logos dont bother me as the reverse cover doent have the irish rating and has the 2e logo so that my colllection mostly matches up

gordon
August 13th, 2012 - 9:35pmWell the legacy box trailer was passed by the bbfc on friday so it wouldnt suprise me if it was on it. No chance of seeing ian’s version of shada online. He said about putting it online words to the effect: over my dead body

August 14th, 2012 - 12:04pmDr Who 1999 – If your refering to the animated Shada as the one with the 8th Doctor, you can find the whole story on YouTube 🙂
Look for YouTuber ‘Ginger Ross 1’.

August 14th, 2012 - 12:29pmNo its a total different one.

August 14th, 2012 - 7:27pmDOCTOR WHO – THE VAMPIRE FROM SPACE – EPISODE ONE
I wounder why this is listed twice?
gordon
August 14th, 2012 - 11:09pmIts because 1 of them is the full version of the behind the scenes studio recording and the other one is the edited version that appeared on the original dvd

Classic Who Is Cool
August 13th, 2012 - 2:56pmhow can you buy this when the special edition is not out until october ?, or did you get the original version ?
gordon
August 13th, 2012 - 6:43pmIt would have been the original
Jason doctorwhoone
August 14th, 2012 - 12:05pmClassic Who is cool – I think he / she is referring to the original DVD release, not the special edition version.
Ryan Denyer

August 12th, 2012 - 5:51pmBecause the picture quality wasn’t the best it could be
gordon
August 12th, 2012 - 6:30pmIts because restoration techniques have improved especially on eps 2 and 3 as they were ntsc beatamax copies. They can get much better results in those eps plus it gets a making of and other extra goodies
