    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    Oh, and those getting the wrong figures from Zavvi should also contact BCS and really kick up a massive fuss. Especially if you have other stuff on order. They might send you a replacement without hassle.

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    Jesus. This is REALLY bad. Really sorry for you guys in the situation. I’m pissed off BCS suddenly added signed versions of the figures after I’d bought them. Not a massive deal for me as I got the signed definitive 4th which I’ll get by the time just before my funeral but it’s really unfair...

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    Their warehouse in China wouldn’t produce their figures until they’d completed bigger orders made after BCS’s because of the small numbers, hence the major delays in the newer figures ( not including the ones Zavvi produced and handled which got made RELATIVELY quickly by comparison.) They’ve...

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    I’m not criticising those unhappy with the Zavvi figures believe me. I get it. But to be fair, as previously said, they made it clear these were reissues of old figures. It’s a shame some had this fantasy idea they’d be amazing. It’s the reason I only went with 4 and the 12, the Drs I was...

    Have you opened a support ticket on their website? I get a 24 hour reply from them regardless of question that way.

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    I think the two hair sculpts, one for hat one without hat, is making people hallucinate that there were two full heads with the Zavvi figure.

    EXO-6 Star Trek "General Discussion" 1/6 Line

    Is it too much to ask for a Voyage Home Kirk (my favourite film because it was the first Trek I saw as a kid on VHS in the late 80s)? I should probably just go for a TMP hey? Or Wrath Of Khan (closer to the Voyage look, but isn't that quite a way away still?) I'm tempted to try and find a OS...

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    The first 10th Doctor BCS made looks so awful in 2022 (even though you’ve photographed it well there.) I’m not surprised they went with the blue suit version for Zavvi because that’s a pretty good likeness, even if it lacks paint detail, especially the eyes which look black and dead. Such a...

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    I’d agree with this. People knew what they were and people looking for some amazing upgrade just made that up in their own heads. The figures were always reissues of 10 year old products and BCS never pretended otherwise, except for maybe saying the paint app should be better which it certainly...

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    Better pics without the pink light! Again, only 4 and 12 are the new figures. The others are originals. I think they look pretty good really. Very obvious they’re not high end but none of the BCS stuff has felt that way until the 3rd Doctor figure which was a big step up.

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    I didn't get the original but I think this is actually a step up, in most cases. The face is much better without the original's 'five o'clock shadow'. The body seems easier to pose. I'm really happy with mine I have to say, although yes £200 is very steep for it. It should really be £100 for...

    Again all about the posing and lighting I suppose. Mine looks great where he is so maybe I never notice the hairline now.

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    Funny I think the 7B is VASTLY superior, although I'm only looking at my original figure. From those pics the hairline does look weird on the new ones.

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    For £199 I think they’re all pretty nice. Definitely as good as the Star Trek Exo collection as far as I can tell. I think the definitives will be impressive when they actually come out. They’re suggesting in time for the 60th but we all know they’ll actually come out in late 2024.

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    Out of interest, what numbers are you guys getting? I thought these were limited to 400 each worldwide but my 4th is 491. Weirdly my 12th is 391. Are the Zavvi ones coming in their packaging or with their branding anywhere? I got my two figures from BCS and Zavvi isn't mentioned at all. Strange...

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    Couple of shots here. Apologies for the pink light, I just took a couple of quick snaps without getting them ready to be properly photographed. Zoom in and you should see them fairly well. Only the 4th and 12th are the new figures so I’ve focused on them. The rest are the originals. I’m...

    BigBadToyStore and Sideshow have the definitive figures up too.

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    My 4th and 12th arrived, although I haven’t opened them yet. 4 is going to really need careful posing to look good judging from those photos. It looks rubbish from some angles and pretty great at others. At least I have 9-12 and 4 in my collection now, all around 9-10’s Tardis. I didn’t go with...

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    I think it might have been foolish for anyone to buy these thinking they're any different from the originals. I REALLY don't mean that as an insult, I get why people speculated and it does make sense they would have bothered to update them. Unfortunately I did think it unlikely they'd care...

    1/6 Doctor Who Figures - BCS and everything else

    I noticed they're back on Zavvi for order and it says dispatch October. I've had an email confirming despatch of 4 and 12 today by FedEX from BCS so I imagine yours will be on their way any second from Zavvi, who must have got stock in at the same time.
