    I chose the 5 pack with limited edition multipack over this, wise choice as you get 1 pack + a better limited edition

    If the first limited edition card is Clara Oswald, and the fourth limited edition card is the Doctor regenerating, what are the second and third cards and how do you get them?

      March 28th, 2013 - 9:53pm

      Actually, come to think of it, I think I saw the tin description mention an animotion card, possibly another regeneration?

      Now all we need to figure out is the mystery card!

    Can anyone post a link to a ‘how to play’ guide? I bought the tin pack expecting to find a set of instructions included – but it’s just the tin and a deck of cards. I’ve never played any previous ‘attax’ games so I’m clueless… help!

      With the starter pack you get the 10th dr regenerating into 11th. With tin you get 9th into 10th (read in previous article on this site)

      I thought they would do this. Bringing out everything on the same day would be epic but i Know That will never happen.
      I think the doctor who adventures issue comes with a pack to see if people like the range so releasing it later on would suggest that retailers/stockists would look at the results and go “hey, these sell quite well”
      If they do come out on the 28th march, when I go on holiday, I will buy 1 tin, 1 starter pack, 1 dr.who adventures with clara card and a FULL BOX OF PACKETS (24)!!!!

      I would keep your eyes open for these from the 28th March through to the weekend of the 14th April. They could turn up anytime? I’m sure some places will have them out in that time before others will. The DWA Issue # 313 is out on Thursday 28/3/13 so we will get a taster then!

      It’s a publicity photo of a ‘Big Head’ Ice Warrior. They popped up in Ice Warriors and Monster of Peladon. It’s a colour photo if memory serves right. The actual Ice Warrior card looks silly !
