Yeah, that... that's a bit much. I'll just stick with some novelty chocolate, I think.

We shall see in time. I do not relish going through the bun fight of trying to get these again. Transformers have been easy this year because of Pulse UK and the fact the exclusive sets are far less appealing than last year's, but the faff trying to get these Who sets is a real bind.
The only thing that seems odd to me from the post is that the Dalek sets have become separated again. There's one leaked product code for a three pack covering both Evil and Planet, not two codes for a two pack for each. But as said, it's all rumours anyway.
Given how much Al Dewar likes to big these sets up I'd be amazed if they get into shops without him having done a promo video with them first, or at least posting on GB.

I was really hoping the First Doctor sets would be companions like last year's ones. Two Sensorites is very nice, but it's not quite Ian and Barbara. I guess that means the Marinus set will be these Sensorite bodies with Voord heads on.

I would think it likely if that's what these sets are. The Elder sash suggests a minor bit of retooling for one of the Voord too. Interesting that the current discussion is saying the Marinus set has gone from the B&M database, leading some to conclude it's now a Character web exclusive like the Mechanus set. Previous use of the Sensorite body:  |

I can't believe I now live in world where a Sensorites battle pack exists. It's like they made it just for me. Might need a few. Army build.

I did check my B&M yesterday as Friday afternoon traditionally is when I've found them putting out new Who sets. I think though there's something not quite right about the set that did get bought; there are none on eBay which suggests that one particular B&M had a box early by mistake somehow. It's legit because Al Dewar said as much in his posts on the toy forum, but it doesn't look like it was supposed to be on sale.

Giddy aunts don't cut it here... Apparently a reveal video for character's online exclusive this year leaked earlier and it's only the mythical fur coat Abominable Snowmen Troughton with a TARDIS. This was seen as a prototype yeeears ago but never made. Apparently the proper reveal is Tuesday.

Also makes it highly likely this Troughton will get a repaint in the upcoming B&M Five Doctors set.
The TARDIS is an electronic one! It's been ages since any of the classic TARDIS sets had lights and sounds.

I've been checking B&M once or twice a week for a while, but I reckon we're waiting on an announcement first. I can see the Sensorites sets being out in a couple of weeks. At which point, we must flood the Hub with them! |

I was thinking, these are probably the easiest figures to custom because you could make a second elder with a couple of snips to the first elder's sash. Then the administrator just needs a black band done in permanent marker on his neck.
Given what came out this time last year though, we seem a little light with just one three pack and two Dalek sets.
