      Given that this would be the figure on the left, the boots are covered by Katy Manning’s hand.

    Before they mentioned classic, I definitely thought it was Amy Pond from Asylum of the Daleks, unless we get more than one announcment.
    Has to be Jo, Ace or Brigadier.

    What I don’t understand is: Why does everyone want a Gel guard so badly ?

    It would be a rubbish figure ! A lump of bumpy plastic that doesn’t move !!!

    I haven’t seen the Three Doctors but I have seen what the Gel Guards look like, they look stupid, big lump of strawberry candy.

      Unfortunately all that tells us is that it is from the first ten Doctors which doesn’t really give us any more information (although the boots are the big giveaway of the figure or one of them if it is a set).

    • Andrew

    Underground toys really suck at keeping secrets don’t they? It was so obvious from the start. I saw a picture on Katy Manning’s face book page. She was talking about her new Jo Grant figures and how they were still in the works but coming soon. Then Underground releases a picture of boots. Well. it’s Jo. Or is it???

    • John Smith

      September 24th, 2012 - 12:17pm

      I think that this could be the start of a new set! A classic U.N.I.T set. With Jo, the Brigadier, Sergeant Benton, Captain Yeates, Liz Shure (if that’s how you spell her last name) and plenty more to come. How cool would that be?!

    Ha…well I think we can safely say that its not going to be the Brig! 🙂

    I hope there is more parts of the outfit to show us than the boots and its not the outfit Katy Manning had on in that infamous 70’s Dalek magazine shoot…where the boots WERE the outfit!

      Unfortunately not, it was taken down and copyright laws prevent any images being shown. Thankfully some of us made a list of every prototype shown.

      Doesn’t mean they will be released but it shows us that they are (or were at one point) being considered for release.
