The Cuddly Colin figure is THE GREATEST ACTION FIGURE OF ALL TIME.
And yes, I do need an army of Sea Devils.

He's not as cuddly as he could be though. Wonder if they will do a Trial of a Time Lord edition with added girth?!

THAT WOULD BE AWESOME BEYOND IMAGINING!
We so need a Valeyard figure too!

Who knows, could we hope for a 'Vervoids' Hyperion spaceship playset too?

I don't think the cock-headed monsters would be a good toy choice!

Do you really want to have the misfortune of seeing a small child playing with one and sticking it in their mouth as kids seem to want to do. I'd die from laughing and so would you.
It would be a health risk.

Terminally funny for those of us with dirty minds - or hubbers as we are also known.

We should wash out our minds with soap. Or be banished to the Timelash. Whichever comes first.

I hate build a figures with a passion that man may not know. "Build a Figures" Or as I refer to them as "the random useless bit of plastic I got packed in with a toy, that apparently connects to other bits of plastic packed in with other toys I don't own.". It just annoys me to see something as a pack-in that is functionally useless to me, because the chances of me wanting a whole line of action figures is practically zero the majority of the time.

Woolies Argyle St had a shelf full of of 17 Destroyed Cassandra's all grouped together today. Please tell me this figure is not solid packed.
And where the hell is the Cuddly Colin Baker figure, damn it???!!!

I would imagine - and hope - it's simply a case of DC not selling very well, rather understandably. What a bizarre toy. I wonder if it was actually proposed as a joke.

The only bright side is that if Cuddly Colin comes out in August...and TRIAL OF A TIMELORD comes out on DVD in August...then I declare August to be...COLINGUST!

FPG had the Classic Series figures in today. Tenner a pop. Do they have a higher RRP than regular flavour Who figures or are FP taking the piss?
It was somewhat reality crumbling to see a peg full of Cuddly Colin action figures though. After only 24 years, damn it!

FP will be taking the piss, although I do suspect the classics will have a slightly higher price point.

A bad day for DW toys in my house yesterday. While hunting for some Dapol Daleks to flog on eBay in Mum's loft I found that the rubber bands on my Dennis Fisher Giant Robot had perished :-(

The Sea Devil has been re-named Steve Devil. He can be posed as if to do the 'To be, or not to be' bit from Hamlet.

FPG has the classic series figures back in. Random fellows still a tenner a pop. Astoundingly, the prices for 4th/5th/6th Doctors have been put up to £13 - a fiver above UK retail. FFS!
