fantastic news!!!
I've just come off the phone from a long, very interesting and exciting conversation with one of my friends at co. I've been given permission to reveal some of this year's upcoming exclusives - okay, get ready for some
massive excitement!
Sdcc: Big finish style 8th doctor (i don't know what colour exactly though, but based on a popular cover artwork outfit), krynoid, robot 4th doctor alternative outfit (this sounds like rubbish i know, but wait and see
), amy pond in police uniform (to see whether there's a big enough market for there to be more new series related exclusives), and the kandyman with a accessory i'm not allowed to discuss yet. (us winkers have special powers you see matt,
)
post sdcc exclusives: Bessie with a frontier in space green 3rd doctor, revenge cyberman, and a remembrance mccoy with the first ever co classic companion release - ace. Co and ut have realised that there is a fair chance that classic companions can sell well, so one of the most popular characters, with one of the most interesting outfits, has been chosen. If ace is successful, then the next release will likely be leela, with a robot's of death 4th doctor.
Oh, and there's a possibility of a 10th doctor era wave coming out in the autumn, which, amongst 5 others and a baf, (likely the lazarus monster) includes a figure i doubt will sell very well, but will please a very small minority of fans - a series 4 rose.
