BIG Chief Studios The 11th Doctor.

[DVD]

Yeah, I just checked out the 10th Doctor. I'm sure it will be good.
Taking production issues into account, we are still taliking 6 months from reveal to release. I cannot foresee any reveals untill the 11th is in peoples hands.
I'd expect to see 3 more reveals this year, plus one TARDIS. What the figures are, is up to BC, but a reveal in May is likely, then one more every third month. We should see at least one more figure this year being released.
My figures are based on the lead up and marketing strategy that I see them using just now.

TARDIS is expected for next year, that's already been confirmed.

Plus, with the Tenth Docxtor figure you need to take into account that it was two months ago that picture was taken so we don't know how far along it is but that is the last time we saw it (and the first). It will definetly be the third release, with the Weeping Angel being fourth. As things stand there should be five figures released this year, we'll get the Eleventh Doctor and Amy sometime this quarter, the Tenth Doctor and the Weeping Angel at some point later in the year, with the Fourth Doctor just before Christmas as the fifth figure, but if it is just before Christmas one more delay will likely kick it into the New Year.

They said in an interview (which is on this very website) where they say their intentions for the Dynamix range is four a year but we have no way of telling how the delays will have affected it for this year until probablly about December.

April 30th has come and gone - FP no longer have a release date and BC website still state this is a pre order. No email to request final payments or suggest a shipping date.
This company is I am sure going to produce cool figures, but their time framing does not bode well.

This is why the "official" release dates have been so vague, so they can get away with a delay. Although the first two figures were aimed for quarter 4 2011 so this is a considerable delay.

FP have this listed as sold out. I don't what this means, good or bad?

Sorry This item is currently sold out. Please enter your email address into the box below and press 'notify me' for availability updates.

According to FP.com, it's in their JUST ARRIVED section, but sold out.
FP.co.uk has it listed with no release date.
BC have it listed as pre order !!!!!

Hmmmm.

[TheDoctor88]

I can never understand these sites at times.

[DVD]

Its nuts. Three sites, each saying something very different.

Hard to believe that the company who is supplying them are not ready to sell them, but one retailer has them for sale, and yet another (with the same name as the previous retailer) has them sold out already !!!

However - I have an idea....

FP.co.uk and FP.com both ordered a finite number of the figures. These retailers could have had their orders despatched (as theirs would have been a bigger order than any single lowly individual such as myself) and FP.co.uk had met their quota with pre orders (and are now requesting more), whils FP.co.uk have not had as many pre orders as their finite supply, allowing them to have some for sale.

If correct, I should get a request for payment from BC inside the next 24 hours. Or I could be totally wrong..

More likely the pre-order period ended so that was removed, but since there was no stock nothing happened. That's normally what happens with FP, a new date will pop up soon enough.

[DVD]

That makes sense.
Auto check on the stock after the date that it's meant to be there.

Mind you, it's nothing new. The BBP toys get their release dateas shunted up all the time. If we're lucky, these figures will be out by July !!!
