Ralph has been given a TARDIS money box. Apparently it has "12th Doctor phrases!".

The Entertainer in Bishopbriggs had, on Friday, the interactive "shoot them and they fall apart" Cybermen for £12.99. I picked one up for the godlessdaughter for her birthday in February. Santa has brought me one. It's hilarious. The perfect game for drunken adults I suspect! -Ralph |

Think those 5 inch figures are the ones TRU had. Except Missy, that was an online exclusive from Character.
Mrs P presented me with the Curator set today. Brings my compliment of Tom figures back up to 100%. The lenticular painting doesn't really work, but Lord Tom is Lord Tom.

Here's hoping they're repaints. I've got all the classic figures but a three pack of those moulds I'd buy again if the Doctor is one we haven't had.

Nice! An Invasion of the Dinosaurs variant Pertwee (repaint of the figure from the Green Death and Time Warrior sets) and a repaint for Jo's original figure but without the puffy sleeves! Rock and Roll! TWO new variants for the dead 5" Classics line as well as the fupping awesome Delgado figure (one of my faves).
Let's hope this sells well and B&M wake up to the fact there's a market for variants as opposed to straight re-releases. If these are £12.99 it's a *steal*. Forbidden Planet would charge three times as much and ask you to thank them for doing so.

Apparently the B&M sets are now on sale. I might go look tomorrow. In other news, a new repaint set with all 13 Doctors was shown at SDCC. merchandise.thedoctorwhosite.co.uk/sdcc-2016/No new moulds, just all new paint jobs. I have every classic release there is, but this set's going to come in at Combiner Wars boxset prices. Not sure I need all these moulds again. I'll have to battle the completist urge. Even if this FINALLY means a Pertwee in the red jacket. |

I've got the last one. Tis a sight to behold. Can't even remember how many were in that one. Probably 11. But that was fifty quid in TRU, this one will be a Forbidden Planet job by the sound of it. Much more.

Just discovered the two Missy figures, which were online exclusives only available direct from Character last Christmas, are now in TRU. B&M had been raided. Loads of monster/10th sets but no third Docs. The quest is the quest. (7000!) |

It had been a while since I had perused the toy dept of John Lewis so I had a look. There was a pile of Fourth Doctor Sonic Screwdrivers clearanced down to £2. At that price I could not refuse and grabbed one! Now I can take on the Vardans!!!

Found three sets of this in B&M. A very reasonable £15 but they all had blemishes/marks on the figures so I passed. Also saw the Zygon/Invasion Cyberman/Ice Warrior set. All the Cybermen had mould scarring on the face. -Ralph |

I got one of these sets a couple of weeks ago, but I'm on the hunt for another as both of the Jo head moulds have been used. I didn't realise at the time I got the first one.

There have been two Jo Grant figures released previously, both of which had different heads. This new B&M figure is an amalgamation of parts from both, but some have been found with one version of the head and some with the other.
I'd prefer mine to have the other head because it's more accurate, so I'm looking to replace mine. The quest is the quest!

I must resist making jokes about Jo having different kinds of head.
