The Seeds Of Doom Classic Figure Set – Pictures
The Seeds Of Doom: 4th Doctor & Krynoid 2 Pack
Two alien seed pods are found buried in the Antarctic permafrost. The Fourth Doctor, accompanied by Sarah-Jane Smith, realises that they are from a Krynoid, a form of voracious plant life that infects and transforms all animal life on planets upon which it becomes established.
One of the pods opens and infects a scientist at an Antarctic base but the developing Krynoid is destroyed by a bomb set to cover the tracks of two men, Scorby and Keeler, who have made off with the other pod for their boss, eccentric plant collector Harrison Chase.
The second pod infects Keeler and he also becomes a Krynoid, rapidly growing to giant proportions. UNIT are called in, and they arrange for the Krynoid to be bombed before it can spread its pods across the Earth.

February 1st, 2012 - 12:36pmSorry, didn’t know where else I could have put this but does anyone know where I can buy parts of the build a figures for a reasonable price? (Vespiform etc.)
Anonymous
February 1st, 2012 - 12:41pmAll I knwo is it won’t be easy, try all the UK websites of Amazon play.com etc, and keep an eye on that ebay !
booboo
February 1st, 2012 - 12:46pmthe problem with the vespiform is that some of the parts are very rare (like the tale with the 25 adipose) so if you find them on their own they are going be expensive
Scott
February 1st, 2012 - 1:00pmi have the adipose tail, but not other parts, got them before that wave came out
Boodleoo
February 1st, 2012 - 5:18pmriver song is a very hard figure, also supreme dalek and davros are very rare aswell. Donna Noble is rare but I’m sure yo might find one.
Radburn
January 31st, 2012 - 9:43pmLuckily I waited for this set & also the Pink Peri to be ‘officially’ released – Both sets look great!
“Terrorsaur, Terrorise !!!”
February 1st, 2012 - 12:11pmDon’t you wish the Doctor were different though ? I mean, he’s EXACTLY THE SAME as the Eleven Doctors set. š”
They could have made the jacket a darker shade of grey, to look accurate ! š Not buying it.
Scott
February 1st, 2012 - 4:15pmwhy would you only buy it if it was a shade darker :S
The Silent Silent
February 2nd, 2012 - 7:27amI dont have the 11 doctors set
matparks08
January 31st, 2012 - 8:39pmIt’s another good set – I’m going to ask this in the hope of an answer (which if it’s published elsewhere, forgive me) but what were the top 5 figures wanted by collectors from the survey done on classic sets at the end of last year on this site?

March 31st, 2013 - 11:52amI’m not sure you can figures on dvd…
The Spaceman
January 31st, 2012 - 6:09pmWhy are there no new series figues, there all classic ones :/
King of the Cybermen
January 31st, 2012 - 6:11pmExactly!! For example, we still need Handbots, Kovarian, Minotaur, Peg Dolls, series 6 Amy, Headless Monks, Siren, of course Rory and more! Dissapointment CO!
cyberman97
January 31st, 2012 - 6:15pmBe patient my friends i bet they ll surprise us remember doctor who is not on till fall who knows what they will bring out
King of the Cybermen
January 31st, 2012 - 6:18pmRory is already confirmed, but no date was announced. I’ve heared diffirent rumours and apparently it’s the one from the Rebel Flesh/The Almost People. š š š
BOOBOO JR
January 31st, 2012 - 6:49pmClassic Collectors are being treated at the moment, hopefull they’ll be soe new S6 stuff soon.
ParadigmDalek
January 31st, 2012 - 7:12pmwe had our share of new series figures last year, just let the classics have their turn for the time being. Im sure they’ll be on their way soon.
BOOBOO JR
January 31st, 2012 - 7:19pmTrue.
KRYNOIDY
January 31st, 2012 - 6:09pmI was hoping that the Krynoid would be the build a figure for a future wave; shame but I might get this
BOOBOO JR
January 31st, 2012 - 4:15pmThere is actually a lot more difference between the Axon and the Krynoid than I realised! Still, the Doctor hasn’t been changed as much (I think, correct me if I’m wrong).
booboo
January 31st, 2012 - 4:16pmyes the Krynoid is different, there are one or 2 very minor one on the Doctor but not enough to warrant the “variant” label in my opinion
BOOBOO JR
January 31st, 2012 - 4:20pmOk, what are the differences on the Doctor? People are saying the face is different and their is a minor paint change on the scarf, is this true?
booboo
January 31st, 2012 - 4:24pmvery minor differences on the scarf, the eye brows are higher and the hat looks greener, these could all be production line variations in finishing though like different wallpaper batches, i will have to wait to see the actual figure to do and accurate comparison
BOOBOO JR
January 31st, 2012 - 4:27pmThanks for telling me!
Androvax
January 31st, 2012 - 2:26pmThat is just amazing, I love the mini Krynoid and the seeds, like the small changes to the Krynoid!

Judooning

cyberman97

Boodleoo

The Emperor
February 3rd, 2012 - 5:34pmThat’s flipin amazing!
lett

THE ERGON
January 31st, 2012 - 12:22pmIT SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN RELEASED AS AN AXON.IT IS AS IT LOOKS, A ORANGE KRYNOID. PLEASE GET IT RIGHT UNDERGROUND. HOW ABOUT SOME HUMANOID AXONS WITH AXONITE AND A BAGGIER AXON.
THE ERGON
January 31st, 2012 - 12:34pmOH AND LOSE THE KRYNOID NOSE.
doctorjordanbond
January 31st, 2012 - 10:36amdon’t really care about this set course i could make these figures myself so why waste the money uk is indet
booboo
January 31st, 2012 - 10:43amnot every one can make them themselves
Towel-ban (ON).
January 31st, 2012 - 10:44amIt would be a great set if they had changed the Doctor-figure a bit.
But they did not change him, so , basicly ,not BUYING.
I’ll save my money for a better set, like the Caves of Adrozahni and Invasion of Time sets. š
Need them.
doctorjordanbond
January 31st, 2012 - 10:51amboohoo these people who make erm for you i done it before does not cost that much if you know who they are
booboo
January 31st, 2012 - 10:54amso you can get someone to make a Krynoid for you cheaper than this set? do you have any pictures of anything that has been made for you then?
doctorjordanbond
January 31st, 2012 - 10:56amyes but i don’t know how upload them on here am new you see so don’t know
booboo
January 31st, 2012 - 11:04amsend them to [email protected] i would be interested to see what people can make
no one (fezzes are cool)
January 31st, 2012 - 3:03pmseeing as you are interested do you think that you could make a customs page? i have a great custom amy that i would like to send pics of but i can’t at the moment we need a new p.c š
booboo
January 31st, 2012 - 3:05pmyou can put customs in the user collections if you send them in
Liason Ice
January 31st, 2012 - 8:33amThe Doctor looks more grumpy than in the 11 Doctors set
OverHereStranger
January 31st, 2012 - 10:33amHe was very grouchy in that story, carring weapons and throwing himself into fist fights, so maybe CO took that into account when they made this set
Towel-ban (ON).
January 31st, 2012 - 10:45amBut htey didn’t take into account that his jacket was more gray than the Eleven Doctor’s set depicts, so, they really should have atleast changed the colour a bit ! š
Anonymous
January 31st, 2012 - 7:46pmHe also snapped someone’s neck if I remember correctly.
The Silent Silent
January 31st, 2012 - 7:23amI’m stuck because what set shall I get? The Master with Axon or the 4th Doctor with Kyrinoid?
dalek eternal
January 31st, 2012 - 7:28amget the axon before they stop making it i have it its grat i also have master with computer bank tardis but id get axon as its been out a while and they going to run out soon then get this set another time
The Silent Silent
January 31st, 2012 - 7:32amThanks for the cool advice.
dalek eternal
February 1st, 2012 - 7:48amno problem
The 13th Doctor
January 30th, 2012 - 9:52pmthis looks like a good set ( some cool accessory) . the Krynoid looks fantastic
The 13th Doctor
January 30th, 2012 - 9:53pmThe fourth Doctors waistcoat looks slightly different in the picture has it been given a slight repaint
Dr who who
January 30th, 2012 - 9:19pmSimple question
Why carnt they make as many classic figures and and as gooder figures
There are somany classics and no new series
Not saying I don’t like the classics because I love them
Bill
January 30th, 2012 - 10:19pmI assume it all comes down to which figures they can get the most use out of the molds. Peri is seeing a lot of action because they can just add a shirt or re-paint her outfit. Krynoid was a given because they could re-use the Axos figure. Hopefully we will see more of the Classics
booboo
January 30th, 2012 - 10:23pmone use of a mould probably wont cover the costs of development which is why we are seeing multiple figures
Scott
January 30th, 2012 - 8:38pmSo happy with the price of this š definately getting this
WhoEleven
January 30th, 2012 - 7:49pmRight, i just have a few questions:
– Why Is This Cheaper Than The Davros (Rememberance) Set?!?!?
– Has Forbidden Planets delivery returned to normal? (3-5 days?)
– Does this set include a background image?
(thank you! š )
ryan
January 30th, 2012 - 8:01pmits cheaper because their no new figures in this set just repaints with new accessories
Ryan
January 30th, 2012 - 7:39pmGreat story. Great set. And the Fourth Doctor, even though it’s the same re-released figure, Looks completely diffrent! How have C.O done that? Maybee it’s just my eyesight?…
booboo
January 30th, 2012 - 7:40pmthey have got rid of the boggle eyes which make a huge difference
The 13th Doctor
January 31st, 2012 - 7:21amOh i thought it looked a bit different. have they slightly repainted the waist coat it looks a bit darker

matt smithy

SeanMozz
January 30th, 2012 - 7:24pmDayuum. Classic collectors are being spoiled lol. Where’s our new series figures? :'( Nice set though.
Classic who is cool
January 30th, 2012 - 7:21pmThis looks really cool and plus its my fav doctor, i always make excpetions for 4th doctor variants or any of the companion variants, will hopefully get this š
THE ERGON
January 30th, 2012 - 7:05pmAS i SAID IT WOULD BE BOOBOO, BASICALLY THE AXON FIGURE RESPRAYED GREEN. BUT TO BE FAIR,IT LOOKED MORE LIKE THE KRYNOID TO START WITH. DEFINITELY WORTH BUYING,EVEN MORE SO IF YOU DIDN,T BUY THAT PARTICULAR SET. WAIT FOR A PROPER AXON SET I SAY.
Judooning
January 30th, 2012 - 6:59pmThey have tweaked the Doctor. The hat is slightly different and i’mnot sure but i think his scalf is also a little different in paint application.
The Krynoid looks brilliant! the feet are different from the Axon and some of the roots have been positioned differently.
booboo
January 30th, 2012 - 7:03pmi’m going to wait to see the actual figure on this one to make sure its not just the promo image, they have made differences to the kryniod
CONNORTHEDOCTOR
January 30th, 2012 - 7:34pmI think CO have done a amazing job changeing the doctor’s outfit because before they would just throw in the one from 11th doctor’s set.
BOOBOO JR
January 30th, 2012 - 6:36pmIs the Doctor different to the one in the Eleven Doctors Set?
booboo
