Whooooa! Lucky you, what did you win?? I've gotta say, ever since picking up a dalek drone, I've been really enjoying these little figures far more than I thought I would! Are any of the smaller sets any good? I'll probably pick up a TARDIS despite the fiddlyness, the Progenator room set looks decent value, but the Angel set looks rather sparse. |

I have to admit the Mirrors promotion last week has tempted me to buy more of these. Before that I hadn't even heard of them.

That might explain it then. Still I doubt I would have bought any without first playing with some. Now I may.

My character building prize turned up yesterday: 1 random figure. Fortunately it was a Cyberman: You can't have too many of those.

Hooray for Army Building!  I bought the last two mystery packs at Centre Parcs and ended up with a red and blue dalek. ===KEN |

None of the shops near me are selling them yet. How can you live in one of the country's biggest cities and be so poorly served by the market. Hnnnnn  |

He is indeed most fine. And it's easy to tell it's a Dalek from feeling the packet. I must have an army...

3 for 2 on DW building sets in TRU. Grabbed a Dalek Projenitor room with Dalek Supreme set. Then rifled through the boxes of minifigs feeling for Daleks. Found 1 but no others in a huge box. So grabbed another random pack for the freebie and got a blue-shirt Doctor! Got another Dalek Drone (to live with previously acquired 2xDalek Drone, Dalek Stratagist and Fake Silurian Lass).
Went to TESCO and some packet feeling resulted in 2xDalek Drone and another Dalek Strategist!
My Dalek Army must grow!

Ralph, I'll have to remember to let you know when my army-building sets come in.  Actually, the Daleks are popular. Because they're slightly larger (and distinguishable from the other figures in the packets), I listed them separately on eBay; they need to be sent as Packets rather than Large Letters so cost more to post. The Daleks sold more quickly than the other random figures, even though the postage was higher and I couldn't say whether it would be a red or blue Dalek sent. I sold out of the Daleks quite quickly but still have other figures. Some people bought a few Daleks. |

Tell me more of these army builder sets.
Another Dalek Strategist and Dalek Drone have joined my army!
26 Daleks and counting.
MUST HAVE MORE.
Ken, I don't have a working still-picture camera.

Good grief, I thought I was being extravagant with my 5 daleks!
Soon (July apparently) they're bringing out 5-packs of red Daleks, Cybermen and Weeping angels for a tenner each.

AS MANY AS I CAN FIND!!! -Ralph Apparently they were going to come out in Sept, but they've been brought forward because it's been so successful so far. I'm glad they're doing that, Army Building sets are a great idea! Also the 11 docs set will be £20 apparently! Bargain! |
