Well that explains it, it's all a Dalek plot!

I'm just gonna go pee. I can't hold it up much longer and I don't have a bottle handy.

I'm starting to think the idea in the back of my head might be best.

"____ it, I'll get the regular one."

But I'll regret that so I'll keep sitting here held hostage.

Thinking the sam thing.

But i will prob order it from forbidden planet instead, they are offering free shipping

They could've just gone the retail way, too.. Send 5 or 10 signed to the bigger shops around the world.

Almost no one ever does it but personally I'm a big fan of the lottery system. Saves everyone a lot of headaches, even if many feel that the "random" element somehow decreases their odds.

I used to buy frequently from a Japanese company that went to a lottery system when they got sick of trying a million ways of doing online releases and having their servers get borked.

I like it too when done correctly, not like this. Someone on FaceBook had to leave because his mother in law had sugery or something and has to miss out even though he was ready at the right time and everything.

They might not do it for everyone, as Tom Baker refuses to sign stuff either way.

Damn. Met Tom in the seventies and he signed my Doctor Who and the dinosaurs book. Got binned when my Mum and Dad moved a few years ago.
He signed it to "Martin the brave love Tom Baker-Dr Who"
Got a bag of jelly babies too lol

We need to wait 37 minutes until we get more info?! Okay, that's just cruel. We've been waiting for nearly 2 hours and they ask us to wait even more until we get more info?

I'm getting really annoyed, honestly. My wife is telling me to not let the annoyance get to me, that I've done so much to be here, and that I need to focus on getting one.

Tom Baker still signs stuff at set up autograph sessions during conventions and the like, never heard anything about him refusing to do so.

Regardless, a little sweet talking, a bit of a prod, and a nice wad of cash, and I'm 99% sure that Tom Baker would do the autograph thing for such a release...unless they couldn't agree to terms financially.

I've read on his website that he stopped signing.. Might've changed, I'm not sure.

403 now. I don't have permission.

Same here.

He had to stop filling autograph requests by post, given the sheer amount of them he was recieving now that the show is back and so popular worldwide, but he still signs in person and at conventions, signings and so on.

If you want his autograph you just have to get it face-to-face these days, that's all.

Re: New Doctor Who 1:6 and 1:4 announcement!

The main site is up though.

Old one is up, no new stuff to be found anywhere.

Due to the technical issues with our service provider, we have taken down our new site and are going reschedule the pre-order for MONDAY 14th NOVEMBER at 7 pm (GMT).
At this time you will not be able to pre-order the figures.
We are going to carry out further tests to avoid a repeat of the issues.
Apologies again for the delay and for any inconvenience caused.
Thank you
