When will Big Chief start posting photos of their Tom Baker?

Re: 1/6 Scale Tardis, Tennant, Smith & Baker!!
Sometime this month, I believe, since the PreOrder is supposed to go live within the next 3 or 4 weeks.

Nice! I can't wait to see what he's going to look like.

We'll see. I would like to get a Tom Baker from Big Chief in hand before I build the Tardis. Just to make sure the scale matches up.

Pre-order could be up in weeks, figure's actual release 1-2 years.
On a positive note all the tardis's turned out great.

No it wasn't
Thanks for clearing that up. I know they do take a long time getting these out. I really want a David Tennant.

I will have a Matt Smith Tardis completed in about 3 weeks if anybody want's in. $365.00 + actual shipping + 4% pay pal fees. It has lights, and a "Tardis in Your Pocket" for the sound effects. $200 deposit and the balance when it ships. I will be posting better quality photos next week when I get my Big Chief Matt Smith.
This photo turned out good as far as the actual color.
The Tardis is NOT this color, look at the first 2 pics. This is to show you the size compared to a gallon jug.

Re: 1/6 Scale Tardis, Tennant, Smith & Baker!!
Man, I wish I could afford one of those.
You should consider selling some more of those "Tardis Parts" kits. Maybe including a set of specs for people to build thier own. You could make a mint selling those. Would definatly have a wider market than fully completed Tardisis (Tardi?).

Re: 1/6 Scale Tardis, Tennant, Smith & Baker!!
I think the plural of Tardis is Tardis’ LOL No idea LOL
These things are super expensive for me to build, which is why I like to get half as a down payment. I gather parts from many places, some local, some online. It takes me about 8 hours just to get all the local materials together. Sometimes split over 2 days, like I did this week. Try and find straight wood at Home Depot sometime LOL! Even at this size they require over 1100” of trim alone. 4 different types of wood. And everything I add to the Tardis has to be customized. They are really like building a puzzle. Measure, cut, sand, measure, cut, sand etc. One piece at a time and I have to take one step at a time, and then move on to the next. Even a 1/16" off can really ruin the build, at this scale. I do enjoy building them, and I am a big fan. But it’s more of a hobby than making any money, believe me. Right down to having to make the boxes to ship them and lots and lots of packing peanuts. But they take serious time too. Every step takes hours. And the fact it’s a time machine, doesn’t help LOL

At that price, they are really worth every penny.

Re: 1/6 Scale Tardis, Tennant, Smith & Baker!!
Thanks man. I think so too. If I made them for "Big Chief" and they threw a Doctor Who logo on it, they would sell for $900-$1200 and people would be losing thier minds to get one.
When "Big Chief" sells a Doctor Who figure, they photoshop the Tardis behind them. Next week I may have to take a photo of my "Big Chief" Matt Smith in front of my Tardis, and throw a "Big Chief" logo on the photo.... nah, maybe I better not LOL!!

Check this out.
https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=ICR10008&mode=retail
I heard that they were up for pre-order, then they turned out so bad they were cancelled, and changed to "sold out." Check out the price. And if I remember correctly, they were plastic.

Re: 1/6 Scale Tardis, Tennant, Smith & Baker!!
Claimed?
The TARDIS wasn't claimed. Tim, through one of the most generous expressions I have ever been a party to, sent me the Baker TARDIS as a get well gift when he heard of my heart surgery.
THANK YOU!!
I got it this morning and, my God, it is a work of art.
I don't have pix yet as I'm still sizing the necessary interior and my Baker sat, homeless, for so long that I have him on the table attempting a paint job that will compliment and not insult the TARDIS.
My apologies in advance to whoever sculpted him, as I did want to give credit where it is due. However, I got him such a time ago that I honestly do not recall who made him.
Tim, though not weeping, you are an angel of sorts for sharing your work with me and sending me this beautiful piece. I can never thank you enough.
