January 20th, 2015 - 11:07pmHow big is the TARDIS message device??
booboo
January 21st, 2015 - 2:54am5 inch
Thatchos
January 21st, 2015 - 4:06amWhat do you mean 5″? In the 5″ scale or literally 5″?
booboo
January 21st, 2015 - 7:15am5β³ scale so its quite big, nice new product so i hope it takes off which it should
has the novelty value and will appeal to Tardis collectors so can cover several markets
The Silent Silent
January 21st, 2015 - 9:42amIf you’ll pardon the pun “Take off” π because its the TARDIS
booboo
January 21st, 2015 - 9:54am5″ Scale to fits in with several markets
Number 6
January 20th, 2015 - 11:06pmArggh! Where the 5 inch figures! I just heard that Character Options is doing 5 inch figures for Sherlock, but where are the classic Dr Who figures?! I hope, God-willing, they will make new classic figures from classic Dr Who.
Anyone has heard any news on new classic figures?
booboo
January 21st, 2015 - 2:56amanything 5β³ is exclusive to someone now so they are not going to show it a trade fair to retailers who cant buy it
booboo
January 21st, 2015 - 9:57amCharacter Options are not doing Sherlock, Underground toys are, not the same
and 5″ Doctor Who items are generally exclusive so would not be shown at an event like this
you would not see any (5″ or 3.75″ ) already agreed toys r us. Argos, BBC shop or forbidden Planet exclusives here.

January 20th, 2015 - 10:43pmIs it true that character building doctor who has been discontinued? Noooooo!!!!!!! If the new Time Squad figures are actually being released the first i want are the 11th doctor and clara. Have no interest in the twelve doctor at all. Just looks like a toy of an old man, couldnt they have done the war doctor instead?
doctor who crazy ross
January 20th, 2015 - 10:40pmIt would have been nice to get sets of time squad figures like before where I was 5 figures for Β£10.
Id have liked to see
Set 1: Twelfth doctor, Clara, Cyberman, Missy, The Teller
Set 2: Eleventh Doctor, Amy, Silurian, paradigm dalek, silent
Set 3: Tenth Doctor, Donna, Martha, The Master, Cyber Controller
Set 4: Ninth Doctor, Rose, Auton, Empty Child, slitheen
Then maybe specific episode sets like
The day of the doctor: 10, war, 11, zygon, dalek
Deep breath: 12, Clara, vastra, strax, jenny
Time of the doctor: Old 11, weeping angel, silent, cyberman, dalek

EndlessTimelord
January 20th, 2015 - 10:33pmBooboo, was there any other figures that you were not allowed to reveal? And apparently there’s a new sonic this year according to you know who on Twitter. Was it there?
booboo
January 21st, 2015 - 2:59amits the one that comes with the Cybermen
booboo
January 21st, 2015 - 9:44amnot as such but its generally known some classic figures will be added to the mix and more Dalek variants
and Missy is coming as well we know
PheebsegirlFA
January 20th, 2015 - 10:01pmThe foretold looks 5″ compared to Clara
T4RD1S
January 20th, 2015 - 9:56pmOMG!!!!!!!!!!! Time squad figures r back!!!!!!!!!! SO HAPPY!!!!!! π
drwhofan4ever
January 20th, 2015 - 9:55pmI see time squad is coming back. Liked the past set might get a couple of these (if the retailers take it up)
CyberDanny
January 20th, 2015 - 9:44pmNot sure about the new Patrol Ship, and that Dalek is downright ugly with that mismatch of colours!
The Caretaker Doctor looks good, and the spacesuit one I’ll get purely for the Spider-Germs
The new Cybermen have better, larger (so more in proportion) heads and are taller, and look much better, so I’ll get some of those!
Gliding Daleks look really cool, and a nice way to get Dalek Sec and the other variants in the new scale for a decent price
Foretold, Scovox and new Clara all look great, defo get those!
I see they’re maximising their variants with red shirt Capaldi, not overly bothered with all of them
Lastly, Rusty gets his own figure! π
All in all, not a bad selection, shame Missy’s not finished yet though, she’ll be th icing on the cake! Looking forward to getting these for defo! π

January 20th, 2015 - 9:40pmanyone hear on al dewars twitter that someone nicked the red domed dalek bbut he said it wasnt even a prototype i XD
The Doctor 1055
January 20th, 2015 - 9:35pmI don’t get the Electronic Moving Daleks
the astronaut of death
January 20th, 2015 - 9:23pmSome times I think the merchandise branding does not match the show…. If you know what I mean
Doctor number 10
January 20th, 2015 - 9:18pmBooboo, if these figures are for the next few months and the ones later this year are in development. Does that mean there still is a chance for Doctor Who CB to come out later this year?
booboo
January 21st, 2015 - 2:53amno sorry
Dr dalek
January 20th, 2015 - 9:15pmCan’t wait for deep breath clara
Booboo when does deep breath clara come out because she is the only one I want until rusty is made and wee see and can you get better pics of her plz
Regards dr dalek
the astronaut of death
January 20th, 2015 - 8:46pmWas the memory worm mentioned?
booboo
January 20th, 2015 - 8:47pmno not happening
Warrior Doctor
January 20th, 2015 - 9:08pmWhy is that?
the astronaut of death
January 20th, 2015 - 8:43pmDoes anyone else think the Cybermen look taller?
booboo
January 20th, 2015 - 8:43pmhe looks it, and much better
Sam Richard Bentley
January 20th, 2015 - 8:54pmRead on Twitter (no guesses for who’s Twitter it was) that the Cybermen have been ‘improved’, they have supposedly more accurate heads, and they are taller. Even though the new Cybermen are the shortest Cybermen there has ever been! xD
booboo
January 20th, 2015 - 8:55pmthey do look much better
The Doctor 1055
January 20th, 2015 - 9:41pmIs it just the Cybermen
Doctor Stu
January 20th, 2015 - 8:33pmThe 3.75 cybermens heads look better than the original releases so tests good and I’m really looking forward to skovox, TOTD Clara, foretold and Rusty
the astronaut of death
January 20th, 2015 - 8:32pmBooboo do you have anymore details on the items?

booboo
January 20th, 2015 - 8:39pmno sorry
the astronaut of death

the astronaut of death
January 20th, 2015 - 8:06pmbooboo d id they do a demostartion of the cyberman attack?
Is it good what else did they say?
booboo
January 20th, 2015 - 8:09pmno were were worried we might muck it up, its looks great fun though, the Daleks are great and so quiet
what you are seeing are plans for the next few months with other items being developed for later in the year
remember some of this is subject to retailer take up
Dalek The Supreme
January 20th, 2015 - 7:59pmAlso, I wonder if I’m the only person person who actually wants to have the New Paradigm Daleks in the new scale. π
The Werewolf
January 20th, 2015 - 8:11pmYour’e not alone.
Exterminator
January 20th, 2015 - 9:57pmI definitely want them.
Dalek The Supreme
January 20th, 2015 - 10:00pmYay! π
Slitheen97
January 21st, 2015 - 1:32amSame, love the 2010 Daleks!
the astronaut of death
January 20th, 2015 - 7:59pmBooboo do you think they are getting rid of doctor who CB because we might get doctor who Lego.
booboo
January 20th, 2015 - 8:03pmDon’t think it has anything to do with it as it’s across the board
I suspect we will see something Lego at some stage
Sam Richard Bentley
January 20th, 2015 - 8:13pmCould it be, though, that CB are nothing without the Who line? Let’s be honest – I think the majority of CB purchases come from Who fans and that includes the other ranges. How well did the Deadly 60 or Scooby Do ranges to compared to the Who range?
booboo
January 20th, 2015 - 8:18pmI dont know the answer to that but armed forces were big.
I think it could only go so far and i dont think Doctor Who alone would be worth keeping going for Character. The probably made the decision just to stop that particular line in full. as it was no longer working.
Remember Doctor Who is just a small part of their portfolio
Ian
January 20th, 2015 - 11:12pmThe last wave of CB figures were hard to find. FPI Manchester eventually got them in but sold out and never got any more. My local Tesco super store just have a few Character brix first wave left.
Dalek The Supreme
January 20th, 2015 - 7:58pmI’m liking the 3.75 inch lineup. Yes, they’re mostly new variants, but they’re pretty good ones. Also, the moving Daleks might give me a chance to actually get a standard bronze Dalek in the new scale, since there’s no way I know of to get one in the US at a reasonable price.
CB Doctor
January 20th, 2015 - 7:43pmI am so annoyed with the discontinuation of Character Building, and hope LEGO produce good sets and figures. It is a real shame. And it seems like each wave of sonics repeat some of the sonics in the older wave β why donβt they do a wave with a wider variety of sonics in it.
Everything else looks amazing though β canβt wait for them to be released! I donβt know why, but this year seems like its lacking in Doctor Who merchandise (from Character). The Sherlock figures are cool β looking forward to some more information/images.
booboo
January 20th, 2015 - 7:54pmSadly cb has had its day sonics are just sonics to the target consumers with running changes to each batch
What you are seeing are items for the next few months with more to come later on the year
It’s actually a good start to the year, better than last year
CB Doctor
January 21st, 2015 - 9:25pmI guess your right. When I get over the fact that there will be no more CB, I think I will appreciate the products displayed at this years toy fair.
booboo
January 20th, 2015 - 7:16pmjust added a short video of the moving Daleks above below the pictures of them
RhysCH
January 20th, 2015 - 7:02pmSo looking forward to the new Clara’s! Even though the sculpt looks bad…
booboo
January 20th, 2015 - 7:03pmlooks really good in hand, photo is at a bad angle to be honest
RhysCH
January 20th, 2015 - 7:16pmAh okay, still any Clara is good! I love Jenna! XD
Dalek1963
January 20th, 2015 - 6:51pmI am very disappointed that the is nothing for the 5″ scale π
booboo
January 20th, 2015 - 6:54pmwhy would there be?
anything 5″ is exclusive to someone now so they are not going to show it a trade fair to people who cant buy it
patience patience
Cyberman Bill
January 20th, 2015 - 9:34pmPlease stop asking for 5 inch line. Those are going to be special things. The main line is the 3.75 inch now. Just pretend the 5 inch line never existed
Cyberman Bill
January 20th, 2015 - 9:35pmThat way when you do get a new 5 inch release it will be a treat.
the ergon
January 22nd, 2015 - 11:09amSaying try to forget the 5 inch line is like saying pretend you never collected. There in our cabinets etc as a reminder of the years from 2005 onwards we,ve been collecting. I just hope they don,t totally abandon our loyalty if just to release something special from the old series occasionally. Love the new clara,caretaker and mummy figures in the 3:75 inch equally.
booboo
January 22nd, 2015 - 11:26amCharacter are doing their best with some ideas to give core collectors some future classic products if its viable business proposition
In the past all products were only viable due to high volume orders – they stop and so does the product .
Many paces stopped keeping the mass market 5″ line way before its end, they saw it as out of date (and it had nothing to do with the variants either that some people seem to think, they were a casualty of the problem not the cause of it)
Loosing Woolworth was a big blow as well –
Unfortunately people have very little understanding of the way things work, i dont understand why people think Character are going to make products that not enough people are going to buy.
Its simple economics
The ergon
January 25th, 2015 - 12:13pmIt would be naΓ―ve to think otherwise but I think underground could do more from the classic range if they could get the amount of orders in advance. If not then they could let the collectors down gently rather than not make them at all. surely theres a way so that superfluous stock doesn,t end up on shelves not getting sold.
The paternoster gang
January 20th, 2015 - 6:50pmI wonder what the tenth time squad figure is…
DoctorSong2013
January 20th, 2015 - 7:05pmThe current lineup is
12th Doctor
Clara
11th Doctor
Vastra Nerada
Nephew (ood)
Dalek
Cyberman
Pyrovile
Weeping Angel
Clockwork Robot (Purple)
The paternoster gang
January 20th, 2015 - 7:18pmOh yeah, thanks! I miscounted the amount of figures and I thought there were only nine!

January 21st, 2015 - 1:02pmBoo boo are the time squad figures just a one off or will there be more waves
booboo
January 21st, 2015 - 1:03pmi suppose it depends on how they sell
Finn Townley
January 20th, 2015 - 6:31pmI’m really curious about how the daleks move to sound
A friend
January 20th, 2015 - 6:26pmWell they kept that bad Capaldi head sculpt, but otherwise I’m really looking forward to these!
