There's also a first doctor and TARDIS set on the cards from the rumours. If that's a doctor and TARDIS like usual it could be a Hurndall reuse, but there have been TARDIS and three figure sets before now, which would be an amazing way to do Barbara with a first doc repaint and an Ian variant. That would be mind blowing.

To do the Raston Warrior properly there would just be a blank space in the box as it moves so fast it cannot be seen until it strikes.

If Hurndull gets done, he must come with a sandwich accessory.

The sculpt for Ian looks a bit better than the finished figure, just like the Zygons Tom last year.

I felt sure the Sensorites would drop while I was on holiday just to annoy me, but it seems B&M customer services have said they're due into their central warehouse on Monday and will begin distribution from then. So end next week at the earliest.

I am on holiday next week. They had better not drop then. If I, one of the few True Fans of The Sensorities, misses out on their toys I will ANNIHILATE REALITY ITSELF.
I also MUST have the Voord.

On my way back from the far North last weekend we stopped by a couple of B&Ms on the way, and I was surprised - but also not surprised - to not see a single one of these figures.

There are three useful B&M shops on my way home from work so I've been spot checking them this week. Finally found the Power Dalek set in the one I looked in tonight. Just the Day set left to find for this wave.

Really need to find time to do a proper comparison of all the Character Daleks. I'm sure these new History set editions are the most screen accurate, but there are dozens of grey late 60s Daleks now and they're all slightly different. I haven't seen anything online that properly catalogues them.

Gonna try B&M again on Saturday. I will not be denied Voord and Sensorites!!!

Found Voord and Sensorites in the East Kilbride B&M last night, so I stand ready to strike for those that need them.

They do seem to be more available than the Daleks, which are either in shorter supply or have been scalped to buggery. I've seen several shelf loads of Sensorites and Voord on my travels this week, but only two History #5s and none of the #7. Most depressingly, the biggest B&M near me has already ditched the shelf tickets for the Who sets and put other toys in the space. Seems they were done in that shop entirely within a day or so.
And what's annoying about that is that if they're still using last year's distribution model, when those are eventually restocked it'll be with the next wave.

Encouraging you found a load of Daleks though. I will find the Gold one yet...
...although I do already have two different gold Daleks from Day, but there's always room for another variant.

I'm likely going to be in a B&M tomorrow morning. Does anyone want me to pick up any of the Dalek sets if I see them?

Yes please of you see History set #7, Day of the Daleks (the one with the gold Dalek) it would help me out loads. None to be had round these parts and it's hard to guess if they'll get restocked. Depends how soon the next wave is coming up behind.

If Llama doesn't see it, I can also check for you though it would be next Saturday before I can get to one due to work. Both B&M's I went to had a few.

Ta. I'm probably worrying unduly, but with this line you can never tell. Some stuff comes back and hangs around for ages, some stuff disappears instantly and never reappears. Last year round these parts the first two Dalek sets only appeared once.

I know what you mean. I was never able to get History of the Daleks #3 or #4.
