Am I the only one who likes this line? I know the 5 inch line has plenty of fans, and I respect that, but I find the 3.75 inch line is quite decent.

Too small to mix lines, too few figures to properly collect, and sculpt & articulation aren't the best. A shame, I always wanted a 4" David Tennant to go with my Star Wars figures.

I have a tenth doc in trenchcoat with the tardis of his era a few dahleks. Most the humans in this line are not that great looking and sadly most local retailers in my area have dropped the line. Also picked up a Cyberman he's so short next to other robot figs but doesn't matter since I just used the head from it to be "handles". If I get a tenth doc out of the trench coat I'll be happy. Other than that maybe the occasional alien might be cool

Yeah, I find the shortness to be the main problem with them. It's a result of all the other lines in this scale actually getting a bit taller for some reason. I think the wave 3 Tenth Doctor in trenchcoat and Amy Pond are good examples of the potential this line has in terms of sculpt, since a lot of fans of the 5 inch range actually kind of liked them(we just need more of those types of figures). The articulation leaves a few points to be desired, but is quite satisfactory. I'm just happy I can collect Doctor Who figures in this scale at all, to be quite honest.

Am I the only one upset that THIS is the closest thing we have to a Tardis playset? I think they need to redo it, even if half the thing is made out of cardboard.

Oh yeah, their "playsets" are garbage. Nothing more than glorified paper bases.

I love all Toy lines, as long as they're interchangeable.[IMG]www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153205746923542&set=pb.790888541.-2207520000.1439948808.&type=3&theater[/IMG]

Best I can do for an original figure pic is this: https://plus.google.com/111009415242...ts/4YG1yRVxh3G
Any tips on how to fix that? |

So a few months back, I found this image: The only painted example I can find a pic of is this: https://m.facebook.com/1541956046565...pe=1&source=42
Thoughts? |

As for K9, I have a pull-back-and-go figure free with the Doctor Who magazine that's MU scale. But MU is bigger than these figures, so he's a bit big for actuall 3.75" Doctor Who figures.

That painted version is the 5" scale. Based on the articulation, the prototype is indeed 3.75". I've never heard anything about it. If he came with a 3.75" John Hurt head, I'd definitely buy it.

I would love to do a tardis with room like in the episode journey to the center of the tardis. Big old beach engines a huge library. A weird teck orb room. And others that have only been talked about but never seen. Swimming pool scullery companion bed rooms even a smaller old tardis hub or 2. The wardrobe adpnd parking garage too.

Am I the only one who kind of wants the Hide Tardis set? I find the Tardis that's included with it to be oddly appealing to me. I could care less about Clara, and the 11th Doctor I'll take anyway he comes.

I saw this set in a lcs the next town from where I live but at 85.99+ tax it stood there. I understand it's imported and there must be some sort of demand but for it is and what it does the price wasn't worth it imho.sadly that lcs closed down but I think it was due to there being 12 huge ass conference tables of guys just playing pokemon and other card games. Sure people were in the store but I doubt they really ever bought more than a few sodas and candy bars.
