Anyone else picked up any new Doctor Who figures?

I've limited myself to a few 5" Cybermen and a Dalek, plus a large rc Dalek (damaged box).

yeah i have the rc dalek, but despite being a life long dr who fan i have not bought any more-and i dont know why to be honest.

i think i will have to do something about that situation

At least there should be a proper second hand market of these in a couple of years, one thing that bugs me about the Dapol and Product Enterprise stuff is that it's almost all still MOC/MIB

Once the kids get bored I can finally build that Cyberman army I always dreamed of ;D

Thanks to a board member on here I got my 12 year old her first figures for the series, the SDCC Dalek and Cyberman. She loves them. Still do not have any for me.

A word of caution to anyone wanting to buy the recent doctor who build-a-figure released in pieces with the dr who classics series one figures.

as you might know once the figure is snapped together it cannot be taken appart, the problem is, many of the completed ones sold on ebay have been put together with the legs on the wrong way round,
when the figures were released the two robots of death figures were packaged with a leg each,and were clearly labled left and right- this is because the robots legs are not symetrical.if you look at the back of the heel, the foot is flat on one side and the other side is more rounded with 2 flat planes at an angle, the 2 flat sides are the insides of each foot, they should be together.the robot does not stand properly if they are put on the wrong way round, and it looks wrong- you may think you could just rotate each leg around at the hip and then have the pelvis part facing backwards, but this also doesnt work as the pelvis also has a right and wrong way to be put in- it has a dip in the "belt" part that needs to go at the front.

since apparently no one knows about this, it is worth scrutinising every one you see as nearly all of the ones i have seen are put together the wrong way.-but all of them sold as mint.with the prices it goes for this is worth looking for.
