Big Chief Studios - 1/6 Doctor Who - #10 David Tennant

[ChaserFan]

Anywhere I can get this. Will they have other distributors like the 11th?

Nope......

 

[Captain Britain]

No.
Payment plan - pay in installments leading up to the dispatch date.
Normal - Pay at dispatch date.
No need to pay it all now.


In the UK, SE comes in at £160 + shipping left to pay, whereas the LE comes in at £154.99 + shipping left to pay. Just with all the different VAT rates per country they've just done the generic one.

Thanks for explaining it Bloodgear, my brain crashed over this payment issue!

They had mentioned a possible new version coming out later - maybe 2014 or 2015 that would be released to other distributors.

I'd love to get a Tennant from "New Earth" especially if they can capture the more youthful look of his first series, given that we're getting another Smith from the 50th which should look older it'd be a nice compliment to the 50th.

My 2nd want would be the spacesuit from "The Satan Pit". I always loved that look.

 

[dragonsleeper]

That will do... I can get this version, too, later there's always somebody who will get tired of it or maybe in need of money and will sell it cheap.

The CO version of the spacesuit isn't really that bad.

 

[JonWes]

Yeah, the CO Spacesuit 10 was pretty cool. Well, barring the face. I had thought the next version of Tennant might be the blue suit.

 

[DVD1]

I have the spacesuit version (on display with the other CO 1:6 figures), and it is nice. After the 11th used it in the last season, I put it on him for a while, but its now back on the CO 10th. It is nice, but I'd prefer to see the blue suit / red converse set up as their next release.

So BCS has posted on fb numerous times that those interest in paying a certain amount of cash each month should email them. Anyway, i prefer to pay the whole amount the time he's ready to ship. Does anybody know if that's possible and how much time they give you to pay the invoice?

 

[Doctor Who]

You can pay full when it's in stock.

I did email them for the invoice a while ago but haven't heard back yet.

Thanks for the info!

 

[DVD1]

I'm just sticking with the original way of doing this, and paying in full when they say its ready.

 

[pixletwin]

I just made my first installment payment towards Tennant.

I'm still kicking myself for missing out on this. The 11th Doctor figure I have from them looks great, but they really knocked it out of the park with the 10th. It would have went great displayed with the new TWC 10th Doctor Sonic remote.

At least there'll be no problems with sculpting 12... old guys are generally the easiest subjects to sculpt.

I'm really, really depressed about the casting news, btw. Doctor Who should belong to kids rather than fans, and I think kids will struggle to identify with someone Capaldi's age. It's the sort of casting that will appeal to middle aged fans rather than the mass audience. It's very telling that only one actor tested for the role.

Do young fans not like Dumbledor or Gandalf? The Doctor's role is not about identification as much as it is affection and awe. The companion's role is more of what you're looking for.

I'm really glad they didn't go with another kid. The show will do just fine with an older doctor. It always has. And it allows the next era to be different from the last.

Funny that both the new doctor and Karen Gillan got their start in the same Pompeii story though....

I have to agree with this. The Doctor doesn't necessarily need to be young or old for that matter. He needs to capture the kind of wonder and enchantment that the show itself really calls for. That fairy tale lore. I thought Smith was brilliant and is my favorite Doctor but I've read more than a few reviews that accused Smith of simply being Tennant 2.0 (which I never understood) so what better than to have a completely different take.

His companions will be who a lot of the youth will relate to, there are a ton of folks who instantly fell in love with Clara and who are glad she is making it past Eleven's stand and that will continue to be a pivotal point of Capaldi's tenure but I have no doubts that if he isn't hitting for some reason then the BBC won't hesitate to regenerate him quickly and move on to the "last" regeneration.
