3.75″ Variant Wave USA / UK / Australia Orders Update

USA / Australia to get 3.75″ Variant Wave

All six figures are now available in Australia from www.popcultcha.com.au

What will they cost…

All six figures £45.27 + Post to UK £10.58 = £55.85

That’s £9.30 a figure

If customs charges apply £79.50 = £13.25 a figure at worst


Figures are now available individually from www.whona.com (Most now sold out)

All 6 figures will cost you £70 (11.66 each) to send to the UK. If customs charges apply add an extra £14 making a total of £84. That’s £14 a figure.

Is is not economical to have individual figures shipped.

Please check UK postage rates to see if they suit your budget.


UK / USA customers can also order now from www.bigbadtoystore.com

There may be others so its up to you!

What it will cost you (please check your own figures, dont take this as gospel)…

At best

All 6 Figures $69.99

UK Post $25.00

total $95.00 which is £60, works out at £10 per figure including post

At worst if charged import duty and costs

£60+vat £72 +£8 Handling fee = £80 = £13.33 per figure


According to underground toys facebook page the USA are to get all the chase figures so sought after in the UK as a single variant wave. This has already been offered to retailers.

They are also now listed on an Australian wholesale site.

Apparently this is because these variants were never included in deliveries overseas.

UK buyers however have never been able to go on-line and buy these individually anywhere other than for highly inflated prices with many examples being taken out of the chain by retailers and put straight to ebay.

As there is no news in the UK on this (the variants have never been “officially” acknowledged here) we can only assume this move is exclusive to them.

If you are considering importing please bear in mind you may have to pay import duty and costs.

      they only sell the set, problem is the post would make it expensive for a one off item

    Just received my set from Popcultcha. Ordered them from Oz on 26/11/13 & they are already here in the UK 11 days later & it did’nt get caught at Customs either. Very pleased!

      mine did, along with a £13.50 parcel force charge, i also got the standard wave, for the life of me i dont know how that happened, seems like it was my mistake but i cant see how, totally out of pocket.

      I only did this to get the sfxs Daleks as well

      Quite frankly its insane we have to resort to buying overseas – if it had happened here i could just send them back.

      have ordered all the re-releases got a felling i’m going to get caught on those as well, also didn’t realise you have to VAT on the cost and the postage charge, last time i will be ordering from overseas i think

      have effectively paid £100 for something that would have cost me £45 here

      To be honest I was expecting at least another £18 on top in charges? I want the SFX Wave 2 Daleks as well; but as I have already got the Special Weapons Dalek SFX, it is not practical to buy the WHOLE four again to get three – Depends on if they get released here? If not, I will have to purchase abroad. It is INSANE that we have to buy Doctor Who merchandise from abroad. Even more annoying is stuff due to Licensing Restrictions we can’t even get here
      (Thinkgeek) all so annoying…

      hadn’t bought the sfx special weapons so it was ok for us, dont understand why that tooth brush holder is restricted, you cant even buy it here

      You must be feeling SOOOOO annoyed right now booboo!

      Trouble is these restrictions seem only to apply to the company selling them? Other dealers on ebay are selling the Toothbrush Holder, Shower Curtains & Tea Infuser for (obviously) triple the price to the UK so so much for Licensing?
