About this deal

The Thirteenth Doctor is a charismatic and confident explorer, dedicated to seeing all the wonders of the Universe, and championing… 45 25 Oct 2022 B&M 2022 10th Doctor Figure Set It’s not fair to say no one like the Chibnall/Jodie era, cause millions actual do. But it doesn’t mean the merch isn’t selling. You have no idea how these are selling and, furthermore, I also saw a general decrease in the prices for a ton of other Who merch unrelated to the current era. Wanna explain that? This set is inspired by two of the most iconic moments of ‘Genesis of the Daleks’. The first is when the lone ‘original prototype’ Mark 3 Travel Machine, later destined to be renamed as a Dalek, is being tested out in the wasteland by its creator Davros. In this scene the Dalek is furnished with its means to interact with its surroundings via its new manipulator arm and focused energy weapon.

The Tardis has a new roof profile and lamp to match the current version as well as the “reverse” door sign. Completely understood that it wasn’t economically viable to give us a completely new mould (as was prototyped)- but I couldn’t understand why the existing mould they chose to customise for this was a classic TARDIS rather than a new series TARDIS (as Character obviously had both as a base available to alter). I thought 13’s TARDIS was actually ‘new series’ in size. Up first are three updated figures of the Thirteenth Doctor’s friends Yasmin (Yaz) Khan, Graham O'Brien and Ryan Sinclair. These most recent companions all feature a brand-new set of outfits inspired by their onscreen adventures. Companions of the Third & Fourth DoctorSeeing it now in person I do like it. I know the sculpt is not entirely accurate, it being a reuse of a classic box, but I think they’ve done the best they can with it given the budget they had. There’s enough unique reworked features on it to make it original enough and satisfying as a 13th Doctor’s TARDIS. It does looks classy in the box, and I like the darker greener blue, and silver window frames and appreciate the effort of the resculpted roof, lantern and door sign. I was initially disappointed when I heard this TARDIS wasn’t going to have an interior light, as having a TARDIS lit from the inside, as in the 10th and 12th Doctors’ Electronic Flight Control TARDISes, is what gives it a magical quality. But it being a reuse of a classic Electronic box this is what we get, and it’s just nice have a release of a 13th Doctor’s Tardis. Only the fourth best of the four Electronic modern TARDISes maybe from a light and sound point of view, but I still like the way it looks, and I’m pleased we got it. From the friends of the Thirteenth Doctor, the Fifth Doctor in The Visitation, the Fourth Doctor in fetching tartan, and even more Daleks, there’s something for every Doctor Who fan in these new sets.

I guess this is just how it’s going to be from now on. Still want the companions though and yes, I know I’ve said negative things about Ryan & Yaz, but that’s the completionist in me. I’d actually love an ’empty’ reissue of the 9/10 TARDIS so I can give 9 and 10 one each, too, rather than them share, if I’m wishing. And some empty/non sound/light reissues of the previous Forbidden Planet exclusives would be amazing, because I only ever got the Hartnell at that time. It’s great seeing specific variants like the Shada etc lately, but I personally think there’s still as much money to be made from reissuing the basics like those standard 4 and 7 etc cheaply before even worrying about minor alts, with no need to kit bash or repaint new figures when the basics can accompany these again happily.) We were determined to give the fans something exciting and again hopefully we have genuinely surprised them with the new additions that have been coupled with some of our previous released figures. The inclusion of a new Fourth Doctor, Sarah and Romana 1 will hopefully surprise everyone in what is an astounding number of new figures this year and hopefully we will continue to exceed the expectations of fans and collectors alike.”This set features new figures of Sarah Jane Smith and Romana 1 and 2. The outfits are Sarah Jane Smith from the Third Doctor adventure The Monster of Peladon, Romana 1 in her outfit from The Power of Kroll and Romana 2 in her red outfit from the The Horns of Nimon. 1975 UNIT Terror of the Zygons Set Please note Tardis does not contain a card interior, other pictures circulating of this item have a custom interior to demonstrate you can print out and fit one yourself if required. Al Dewar Creative Director says ‘These were interesting sets to work on. Regarding the Dalek sets we’re hopping around a little this year… 153 28 Aug 2023 B&M 2023 The History of the Daleks 14 Revelation of the Daleks

As fans know, in the first ever episode of the TV show we encounter the TARDIS and its owner and pilot, an alien traveller known only as The Doctor. It’s the start of a great number of adventures over many years. The Ninth Doctor was an intense and emotional incarnation. We first encounter him as the sole survivor of the Great Time War and the last of the Time Lords. I like it a lot, but still not sure why they used the mould of the classic box they’ve been customising lately, when my suspicion is that it should be the size of the 9th/10th, 11th and 12th boxes. I don’t need a new mould, I completely understand the necessity to retool as easily as possible, so have no problem with just sprucing up the existing mould- but from the outside it feels as easy to customise a new series mould as a classic series one? I might be completely wrong about the scale, but my impression is, in real life, 13’s TARDIS is the same scale as the last (new/modern) boxes. If that’s so, my only complaint is that they didn’t customise the mould of, say, 12’s instead of customising the mould of the classic boxes. (I actually hope I’m wrong and 13’s box in real life has reverted to a smaller scale, though, which makes this box as accurate as I’d be happy with.) Anyway, still looks very, very nice, just appears too small next to the others.Also, the B&M stuff is completely different. They are much more limited both in quantity and availability, so people are more likely to want to buy them anyway, and maybe leave the main wave of series 12 later as they know they’ll be available for longer. Character Options reveals its next Online Exclusive, The Doctor Who Thirteenth Doctor Regeneration set

Speaking of this wave of releases Al Dewar, Creative Director at Character Options, said: “This range has some real gems in it, including some not so easy to spot ones. The three figure sets are very cool and there’s at least one standout figure in each set, including a new Ninth Doctor with new components and an updated Rose V1. We also have a brand-new Angel variant as well as a physically new version of Yaz. Collectors will delight in looking for both variants of the Angel figure. Now you can join the adventure! Featuring light and sound effects, this replica of the Twelfth Doctor’s TARDIS also has opening doors and can carry 5.5″ Doctor Who action figures. The perfect gift for any Doctor Who fans! An obsolete and decommissioned model, it was ‘borrowed’ by the First Doctor when he left his home planet and has transported all of the incarnations of The Doctor to many different time periods and a variety of exotic alien worlds. The first figure is inspired by Doctor Who: The Television Movie, with the Eighth Doctor, in an updated version of the costume worn after he regenerated. The second figure depicts the Doctor in his dark blue leather pea coat and jeans from his audio adventures. The decoration has been revised and, for the first time, this figure also has the brown satchel. The final figure in this set is taken from The Night of the Doctor, minisode where he sported a worn green overcoat, ruffled tie, bronze waistcoat, and US Army Cavalry boots. This outfit corresponds with his overall weary appearance, during the Time War. As fans know, in the first ever episode of the TV show we encounter the TARDIS and its owner and pilot, an alien traveller known only as The Doctor. 487 1 Dec 2022 Doctor Who B&M 2022 History of the Daleks Set 11Lastly to go hand in hand with the Dalek sets is a great special release featuring Davros and a very special Dalek … all I can say is fans will not want to miss out on that one!” This set features detailing from the Fifth Doctor story The Visitation. It comprises a crisp moulding of the Fifth Doctor with his floppy hat, while the TARDIS comes in a pristine blue livery.
