Preordered! Looking forward to having the best Doctor on my shelf, one day!

It felt a lot more like everyone was in line waiting their turn instead of the pushing and shoving we've had before.

Lol! Sale time was 6pm UK time. Always was.

They sold 106 in the first 8 minutes...really good. Congrats to everyone who picked him up...he's a fantastic looking piece.

42:78dm.

I am in GMT +1. Meaning it would've gone online at 7pm my time. It went online at 7pm my time.

Really? You posted at 6:05 pm stating that you had ordered it. 7 pm BST (GMT+1) was only fifty-one minutes ago.

I posted at 7:05 my time I ordered it.

I am one hour ahead of the UK. My friends all told me I am. I live in Belgium, which is GMT+1.

They said it'd go online at 6PM, right? Their clock hit 6PM and they put the pre-order online. I don't see what the issue is.

What do you think you're a Timelord or something?

You're currently GMT+2. The UK is currently GMT+1.

They said 6 pm GMT.

This is getting ridiculous. Do we have to make such a big deal out of it?

SOLD OUT!!!

If the figure had sold out in the first hour, it could have been a real problem as they gave the wrong time. As it is, everything is fine.

Glad everyone got theirs. Looking forward to seeing some in-hand pictures. I saw the prototype at last year's LFCC and was pretty impressed. Now for news of the Baker Street boys...

SOLD OUT!!!

The page still has the pre-order button available. Where are you getting this from? Not their Facebook page, anyway.

True.

I'm so tempted! It'd cost me at least €250, though, and it would have to be paid around the same time as Ten. D:

Now for news of the Baker Street boys...

Another two figures I'd really like. I kind of hope we don't see them this year; I wouldn't be able to afford either.

Look what Who's fiftieth does to me.

Re: Big Chief Studios - 1/6 Doctor Who - #04 Tom Baker

Weird, it was red and said SOLD OUT. Just looked again and it says Pre-order. I wonder if some orders got declined or something.

Re: Big Chief Studios - 1/6 Doctor Who - #04 Tom Baker

I haven't been so happy to preorder in forever. Getting one of the few available is a big piece of it, but this means more to me in nostalgic terms. Grew up watching Tom like a lot of those here I'm sure.
My wife understood and kept the kids clear. God love her.


This will have a prize spot in my home. My day is a bit brighter now

Nice key to time....

Re: Big Chief Studios - 1/6 Doctor Who - #04 Tom Baker

They gave the correct time.

The pre-order went up at 6pm.

2 hours and 44 minutes ago, at the time of posting this, it was 6pm.

It's now 8.44pm.

Re: Big Chief Studios - 1/6 Doctor Who - #04 Tom Baker

Here we go again. It was 6pm BST, which is 5pm GMT.

Re: Big Chief Studios - 1/6 Doctor Who - #04 Tom Baker

The names for GMT and stuff don't change with BST. They meant 6PM in the timezone known as GMT. Daylight savings don't move timezones.

Re: Big Chief Studios - 1/6 Doctor Who - #04 Tom Baker

how much are you guys estimating in dollars? About $275 shipped for the signature?

Ouch. Surprised to see its still available.

 

[kl241]

Re: Big Chief Studios - 1/6 Doctor Who - #04 Tom Baker

It actually was saying sold out up until a few minutes ago. Are these limited to one per customer? Do they cancel multiple orders? Oh well, get him while he lasts which I suspect won't be for very much longer.

Re: Big Chief Studios - 1/6 Doctor Who - #04 Tom Baker

Here we go again. It was 6pm BST, which is 5pm GMT.

Which they posted on FB. And if you'd have read that you would have seen that below it they also put "Times are in BST ie UK time".

I've always just associated our time as GMT all the way through and not BST anyway. And they said UK time. Doesn't take a genius to go and check out what the current time in the UK is before it.
