Hello All.
I'm sure you're all aware by now that we may not
have too long to wait before the next selection of classic Doctor Who figures are on the shelves, waiting to be purchased by us Who fans. The supplier explains that a new Third Doctor three-pack will be released as a B&M exclusive in the UK and via Underground Toys in the US, all under the new Collector Range banner.
Although the set features no brand new figures, it does feature two new repaints. Firstly is the Third Doctor from Invasion of the Dinosaurs, which was originally planned for release in the canceled Eleven Doctors Boxset Two. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear to have the Doctor's cloak as the original leaked prototype did, but it does mark the third time this sculpt is 100% accurate to the costume it's portraying.
Secondly we have a new Jo Grant, based on her appearance in The Time Monster. This also adds credit to a previous remark made by actress Katy Manning that three figures of her character would be released. The last figure in the set is the Master, as portrayed by Roger Delgado, which is a straight re-release.
UK retail is £14.99 and the set is due in B&M stores in July/ August time.
For those that are interested, there is also a Tenth Doctor three pack which contains a standard Tenth Doctor, Vashta Nerada and a Cyberman with gun.
As well as a Monsters three pack which contains a Zygon from Terror of the Zygons, a Cyberman from The Invasion and Ice Warrior from The Ice Warriors.
I will be buying all three of these sets, and I might be inclined to get 2 of the monsters set for army building purposes.
That's all on this for now, more updates to be revealed at a later date.
