I'm grabbing the Flight Control Tardis for an American friend.  Are the classic figures out yet? Gotta get me Tom Baker and Peter Davis |

They've been out a while. Only place I've seen them on shelves is FPG and A1, though I hear some TRU's have them.

I can't believe that figure was even released. It's more of an accessory/prop if anything as far as purpose goes. ===KEN |

I know! It doesn't even come with a Chip like the other one did. Its just.. an empty frame.
An empty frame that clogged shelves
Take photos of it so I can mock it on my website!

By the end of the local Woolies, the only toys left at all were Destroyed Cassandra and Gelth Zombie figures at 50p left. Even then they did not sell!

Reminds me of the left over frames that held together the weapon sets in the old and new TMNT toys. Cassandra is not even destroyed in her box illustration either. Still the 'toy' is something that stays amusing if unopened  |

Figures based on 'The Invasion' Cybermen and 'The Tomb of the Cybermen' er, Cybermen (with cybermats) were spotted today in a shop window. I was tremendously excited by this surprising discovery. Apparently there are 4 figures in this range. Collect them all and build the Cyber-Controller from 'Tomb'!
It's like someone is making toys just for me.

Wait, there is a range with multiple incarnations of proper Cybermen? I fear that I can definitely see myself picking up some of these. I can see myself ending up with a Patdoc being menaced by multiple generations of Cy-ber-meeen. They were after all one of his iconic monsters.

There is such a range. I almost fell over when I saw them. I am so buying them when they're more widely available!
Available now in ASDA: The 'future' sonic screwdriver, as featured in 'Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead'.

I think they qualify as essential purchases. I might even be tempted to attempt to acquire all of the Build-a-Figure (the first time I will ever have bothered with something like that) if it is a Cyber-Controller to lead them.

hold off buying the cyber figures. The early ones in Argos have $#!+3 quality control, especially on the ears. Wait till someone else has them

I bought the Time Squad 2 packs of Slitheen and Weeping Angel as well as Sontaran VS The Doctor. These are brilliant thus far! Just opened Slitheen and Weeping Angel and find that these pose really nicely (more like the TMNT: Mutants and not stuck in one posture like with TF: Robot Heroes). The Doctor looks like he can optionally hold the Sonic Screwdriver, whereas the Sontaran is firmly attached to his gun (makes sense  Weeping Angel is my favourite of the two, and he's got a decent gimmick also. Two Different faces Lots of potential here with this sub-line. Really pleased. |

Ralph is torn. There are 2 new Cuddly Colin figures in FP. One is Colin in a blue coat from 'Real Time'. I may be able to resist that. But the other is Cuddly Colin 'regeneration figure' ie in knackered Davidson coat. I. Want. It.
The B &W 1st and 2nd Doc figures also look awesome.

I passed on the above. Too pricey for what they are.
Spotted the End of Time figures in local Sainsburys today.

I have The Narrator/Rassilon/Daltonator action figure. He may yet end time itself.

Okay, that does look neat. I especially like that McCoy's figure doesn't have the stupid grin that the other releases do

Great price-point for 11 figures and McGann looks tops. And 11 Doctors in a box hits my fan gene hard. Yeah, I need that set!

2011 series figures have turned up in my local ASDA. Big gap where I presume the Daleks were.

I've only just seen that 11 Doctors set. Number 6 seems to be thinking, "why don't I get anything to hold?"

Big gap where I presume the Daleks were. -Ralph Whereas in my Tesco the only figure that survived the first forty-eoght hours on sale was a solitary Dalek Drone. They had sold everything else they had put out between Thursday night and Saturday morning. (New Daleks look even tubbier as toys than they did on-screen) Karl |

Saw the Delgado action figure in FPG, but it's packed in with an Axon I don't want and it's £25. I shall wait for the inevitable 2-pack that I would buy: DELGADO AND AINLEY!!!

A Two Masters pack seems so logical that it is a wonder they haven't done it already.
