Re: Big Chief Studios - 1/6 Doctor Who - #04 Tom Baker
Haven't posted for a while but thought I'd drop in on this thread for one reason.
Sounds like a lot of people are just waiting now. Big Chief, while I Know it must be busy, really don't like responding to emails do they?
My partner Ordered the Fourth Doc for Christmas for me and has spent the past fortnight (after doing everything correctly), trying to get some confirmation that it will come for Christmas.
We are 9 days away now and still absolutely no word.
Frustrating in the extreme.

Has your partner tried looking for an email from a carrier company (in my case DHL) in their respective inbox? As I don't usually get things via DHL, I found mine in my Junk/Spam folder.
I hope this helps. BCS, as far as I know, have not been sending dispatch confirmation emails to many people. I think that they did a few times when they began dispatching these but it must have eaten up too much packing time and now they don't.

Mine arrived today, four days after the initial DHL notice.
It's a Chrissie present from my girlfriend so I only opened it for the briefest of inspections. The body is a bit floppier than I'd like, but it stands up on its own so that's enough to satisfy me - I only tried a museum pose, so not sure how it'll go with more demanding poses.
The sculpt, yeah... it's similar to the Blitzway Scarface sculpt imo, kind of 90% spot on but 10% caricature. But overall, like Scarface, the sculpt captures the character very well, so I'm happy with it. I'll reserve my final judgement once it's on the shelf and I've had a good chance to look at it.
There appear to be no QC issues, though my inspection was cursory. I'm really looking forward to opening this up on Christmas Day, it looks like a fun set
I hope yours turns up on your doorstep in the next couple of days rebelpig.

Oh, he's good. I thought I'd prefer Tennant but I was wrong.

Re: Big Chief Studios - 1/6 Doctor Who - #04 Tom Baker
This thing is fantastic!! Really really nice, much better in hand than the photos id say. Bigchief have done an amazing job here, and should be damn proud. This is a big step forward from the 11th Doctor and leads me to be very excited for more Who figures from them. Grail item here for me. Tom was and is MY Doctor and I loved him like a father when I was a boy, so I'm not going to praise this if I don't feel it's worth praise. Well done Bigchief! Thanks very much indeed!

Photography of it can be tricky on him. With 10, he's hard to make look bad unless you use a flash. I think this was the best one of the ones I took as far as capturing the look and really showing off how great the expression is on the character:

Re: Big Chief Studios - 1/6 Doctor Who - #04 Tom Baker
My figure has now arrived...at my dad's place ...in Scotland.
This, and 10 are languishing at my parents house awaiting resending back over here.
My dad says he went to the post office, but didn't like the size of the queue!
He will send this out after Christmas.
I don't mind to be hones, so I'll receive these first week in January.

Ten and Four arrived today but as they're Christmas presents I can't have them yet! Just a quick look around.
Took it out and Tom's foot fell off. -_- Happened to anyone else?
His stand doesn't light up either. The batteries are working, and looking the slot for the stand, there is light going into it. It just isn't showing up on the face of it...so no symbol. Very odd.
Ten's is fine. There's a small gap between on one of the circular symbols of it though.
