I have mixed feelings about these new reveals.

On the Dalek side of things, the Big Finish Doctor/Dalek packs are pretty underwhelming. The Dark Eyes Eight and TV Movie Seven are nice figures, but the Daleks are all very basic repaints because Character Option are beyond doing any new tooling apart from heads it seems. I mean I'll get them because it's me and I buy every Dalek, but there were way more iconic Daleks from the audios they could have used. Would it have hurt to use the classic mould in at least one of them?

4th Doctor/TARDIS (Shada) and 5th Doctor/TARDIS (Caves of Androzani) sets are nice. I still need a TARDIS so I might pick up the Shada one because the style is quite different to the rest of them.

3-Packs:
7th Doctor/Cyberleader/Cyberman (Silver Nemesis) - Pass since all three figures are re-releases. Great for people who didn't pick them up before, but an Earthshock Cyberleader or Attack of the Cybermen Controller would have been way better.

2nd Doctor/Peri/Stike (The Two Doctors) - Pretty neat set overall. Will probably pick it up.

Harry/Linx/Styre - Hands down the best reveal of them all. Getting a Harry figure is fantastic news and I passed on the original releases of the Sontarans (was not prepared to pay for the spaceship they came with), so a budget release like this is fantastic news.

Doctor Who fans are going nuts for these reveals and I get that it's the biggest news we've had in AGES, but at the same time....we're at a point where the only mass release figure (13) is a shelf-warmer, everything else is exclusive to B&M Bargains (a budget store of all places) and Character Options will do the bare minimum when it comes to new tooling. Given how popular the franchise is the toy line is in an extremely sorry state.

Also Akiba hit me up if you can't find any of them - my B&M is always well-stocked with Who stuff so I'm not worried about them being scarce.
