I'm no Dalek expert, but to me, going strictly by the promo pics, the colour is off, and looks bronze rather than yellowy gold. The control boxes for the sucker and gun arms look to my eyes to be maybe 15 to 20% too close together (there should be roughly, or just a smidge under, three metal...

The only way I can begin to justify maybe grabbing a couple of these personally is by reminding myself that custom 1/6 Daleks at this scale cost even more, or at least the ones I've seen over the years certainly have anyway. A bit of a cold comfort, though, when you don't know just how well...

Yeah I haven't been that impressed with some of their chosen sales practices as far as supposedly limited/numbered edition items go in recent years, but I pretty much hold my tongue on that front as more than that I want the company to survive and do well enough that it can keep putting out...

The gold Dalek is limited to 500, while the 'warrior' Dalek is open ended, but I don't see them making more than, say, 600 or so of those in this run, tops, depending on just how many three packs (with two warriors and a gold) they think they can shift. And at these prices I can't imagine it...

I still want an older AvED Ash regardless, which one would think (and hope) wouldn't be nearly as problematic.

Each vertical plate being an individual piece feels like it has trouble written all over it for a mass production run, as far as potential warping (if they are plastic, as expected), proper alignment, and possible paint damage/scratching goes. Also I wish they'd address the inaccuracies issue...

I would like to know what the point of two packs and three packs are when they cost exactly the same as buying them all individually, and include nothing extra whatsoever... :unsure: BCS really are a puzzle sometimes. They also need to tell us what these are made out of, that could well swing...

Bloody Nora, that's even (a bit) higher than my worst fears predicted. I don't know if even my hardcore Who fandom stretches that far*... :horror:thud: They had better at least fix the inaccuracies, but sucker for Who that I am ultimately I probably will still put them on a payment plan and...

So how did the re-release of this turn out? Same issues with the mask and short sleeves, or did they fix those for the new run?

Heat shrink tubing over loose joints, good trick. Will store that one away for later use when needed, thanks. (y)

That's awesome. :rock

Haven't had my confirmation from Asmus yet either, backlogged I imagine. And, at a guess, the deluxe set going up again was probably from cancelled duplicate orders, given that their online ordering system isn't exactly the greatest. Wouldn't be surprised to see this go in and out of sold out...

I imagine the unwritten rule in most of these cases is that the license holders will pretend not to notice certain unlicenced products (particularly out of Asia) unless someone publicly rubs their nose in it, then they feel like they have to be seen to be doing something. Otherwise it's...

I don't know, I'm not really feeling any of these personally. The Hordak is cool for those who wanted the filmation look (and hopefully those fans will be able to score one) but my Hordak was always the original figure version, so I'm already sorted there with the previous release. It's cool...

Damn. Looks even better than I expected. :rock Roll on scarface cowboy...

Valid criticism isn't whining. Just as passively accepting whatever comes along rarely results in a company putting in the extra effort it takes to produce their best possible work... :unsure:

That's the way to do it. Always collect for yourself and your own enjoyment, not for the approval of others. Stick to that creed and I find one tends to enjoy the hobby more, and be more likely to avoid the risk of burnout or collectors fatigue. (y)
