Discussion about this over on GB seems to have been because DWM are doing some fantastic freebies this month.

New sets probably for B&M: downthetubes.net/?p=118224I will pass on The Dirty Stinking Traitor though I find the DW sets vanish almost instantly round these parts. The only one I could get was the McGann and Dalek set, which I only ever saw once. Rare as rocking horse shit in Manchester/Tameside. -Ralph

This is fantastic news. However they've done this it's awesome to see some new figures. They usually cobble together approximations using Primeval moulds, but that Romana II looks spot on. What's great is that these will compliment existing sets - Genesis Sarah to go with the Genesis set, Destiny Romana to go with that one.
These are going to be a real pain to get hold of given B&M always has a queue outside it at the moment. Worth the effort though, these are the best sets they've done yet. When you think last year we were over the moon with the fact they'd got the money together to tool a Harry Sullivan head, now look at this!

As I said I find it almost impossible to find B&M's own exclusives in their stores so I won't be queuing up outside for something they probably won't have. Glad to see the range is still going though.

I keep coming back to these pictures. I'm really excited by this news. Freaking Yates and Benton figures! That means one awesome Pertwee display now. Pretty much all the essentials are covered except a Season 11 Sarah variant. TWO Romanas. Wow.

June's earlier than I'd like. Last year they were end of August, by that point it might be possible to drop by a shop and not have to stand outside it for half an hour.

Benton looks mortified he's wearing the Brig's trousers.
I'm so pleased the Second Doctor has his own TARDIS at last. It's got a new light on top. That means only Colin B & McGann don't have a TARDIS individually released to them, although Davison's own one is the Androzani one so I suppose Baker could share. That new Sarah head is spot on. The Romanas aren't so accurate.
I've already got a fair few Hartnell Daleks but there could be some army building here.

The Invasion saucer commander is a nice one to see out again, that was only ever an SDCC exclusive right back at the start of the line. Those two should have their dishes on their backs, the original releases did.

I would be if I had any hope of getting them! Saw the Harry, Sontaran and Cyberman sets once. Went back to get them on pay day. Gone. Saw Pertwee TARDIS once. Went back. Gone. No chance of the BF sets other than the McGann I saw once.
I still haven't been able to get *one* CO TARDIS.
I WANTED A HARRY FFS B&M AAARRRGGHHH.

Apparently we're looking at July 20th for the new line. The new B&M in my town opened yesterday. I wonder if they've stocked it with the old line or if they're just going to wait for the new one.

Character say 25th July for the B&M sets.
Which is a Saturday, so going by last year that would mean stock going out on shelves on the afternoon of the 24th.
For about an hour before the TARDIS sets sell out.
