Much sooner indeed. I won't get those 2+ hours back.
I'm gonna get on with my life now. See y'all.

Re: New Doctor Who 1:6 and 1:4 announcement!
This.
As soon as it became clear that this wasn't an easy or quick to rectify issue then a choice to delay launch to another day should have been announced, or at least a 'planned update' time given, so as to minimise to an absolute minimum the amount of time you are wasting of potential customers who otherwise feel like they have little choice but to hang around and wait just in case things suddenly come back on line.
As it stands you wasted far more of your potential customers time than you needed to do, so hopefully that is a lesson learnt for the future, should anything unforseen like this happen again.
Hopefully everything will be thoroughly ironed out, and everything will go far smoother next time...

Re: New Doctor Who 1:6 and 1:4 announcement!
I have no idea if I'll be able to get in on monday. Very disappointing, without an order of the first, I won't be ordering any more. I wanted to get in on the first of the line, and get the matt smith auto for my daughter who is a huge who fan. We'll see how it goes, but I don't plan to get my hopes up after several hours wasted yesterday.

At least the time on monday isn't 3 am PST for me! agh!
I mostly just wanted the doll, (ie I don't really need the signed one) is there any reason why I shouldn't just buy from BBTS? It actually seems to be a bit cheaper from BBTS, and since I'm in the US, shipping would probably be cheaper, too.

You're gonna get yelled at for calling it a doll.

I'm getting mine from BBTS. Glad too. I didn't need to stress out and bother with 11.11.11 like some of you.

Well, it's not really a choice for most Non-USers, the only retailer that has decent price is BC themselves, so.. BBTS has mad shipping to here.
Doesn't matter, just a friendly warning before you get trolled. It's been a heavy subject in the past.
Either way, welcome to SSF and once you have your first figure, you will totally buy more.
And I secretly call them dolls too.

Re: New Doctor Who 1:6 and 1:4 announcement!
I'm just wondering with all the hullaballoo whether BBTS will get their shipment and whether I have a better chance of getting the "figure"? from BC directly...?
Thanks. I didn't realize it was such a big deal. I have several figures and dolls of various types... (some vaguely older James Bond and Han Solo) but I'm really loving the attention to articulation and detailed sculpts in the faces, not to mention details of their clothing lately from various companies. I have the new Hot Toys Jack Sparrow coming this month. YAY!
I have the older Character Options 10th Doctor 12",... and it's alright (much better, IMHO than the Tonner one...)
but has BC officially said they're going to do the 10th Doctor next? Cause that would be amazing!

I think you'll find most people here don't mind them being called "dolls" for dolls they are indeed. I know it doesn't bother me.

They haven't said so just yet, but their broken site had both a banner of 10 and a Weeping Angel, like I've said on their FB.

Re: New Doctor Who 1:6 and 1:4 announcement!
If that's true I'll be a little bit disappointed. I wanted 11 and Amy, then move on to the others.
I'll still get whatever they put out though.

I don't think you'll have long to wait until Amy. Possibly after Ten.

It's smart to get a wider attention to the 11 Haters and 10 Fanboys. They might ignore BC because there's no 10, but when they see the quality of it they might get hooked on.

Re: New Doctor Who 1:6 and 1:4 announcement!
10 was such a popular Doctor, I think it's smart to do him next! I might have to cry under my desk if they don't. Their 11 looks SO GOOD, I know 10 would be awesome, too.
I'd love to see a Rose Tyler, too. D: but I'm a HUGE DORK.
is there a 1/6 TARDIS anywhere? Xenophilius, I think you mentioned seeing one really early in the thread?

Re: New Doctor Who 1:6 and 1:4 announcement!
I have one here, custom made. There isn't an official one... yet. Most you can find in 1/6th are underscaled and really expensive though. (Speaking eBay-wise from what I've seen)
Is your name Amy, by any means? (Going by your username) My soontobe wife's name is Amy so that'd be cool!
