Re: New Doctor Who 1:6 and 1:4 from Big Chief Studios!
No. I don't see anyone here agreeing with that. I commented that the option to go either way would be nice. I then said I would probably end up getting two 11s and all the expansions.
Personally, I love the idea of accessory packs. I hope it catches on and HT and SS start doing it too. I want every extra accessory and head BC care to share.
My ideal would be if they offered both expansions and variant completed figures, but I love that they're offering accessories. Surely they'll end up giving us more options this way than sales of whole alternate figures would have justified?
For those who don't know:
I was ranting about this 'expansion pack vs variants' thing a while ago, has all been deleted because it escalated. In a nutshell, I was against the pack idea from the start for various reasons (having to get who knows how many packs in order to complete one figure and having to buy stuff you don't really want/need along with it, far too much hassle if you want to make more than one variant, will most likely cost more than a variant would have cost etc). Back then almost everyone was picking on me but now several people are saying the same things I already said months ago and it seems like they are starting to see the drawbacks of those expansion packs. Even more so once they'll see the prices I suspect. Anyway, seems like many people are planning to make variants and display several Elevens, Tens etc side by side rather than using the packs as an extention for the figure they already own and for those people it would have been easier if they had provided ready made variants.

I TOLD YOU SO!!!
