You mean like in real life?

But doesn't translate well here, esp with the way PopCo does hindarms with that angled inside.

I don't know AV. That's a damn good likeness, for a figure I didn't expect to ever see. I think I can forgive slightly out of proportion scultping on this one. My complaint is likely to fall on the grounds of availability and/or an incomplete selection

Availability shouldn't be an issue, the full line of the Character figures and playsets have been orderable thru Previews for your local comic shop. We have carried the line for a while. The main issue we have is, it's really a bad assortment/ or case pack. 1 Doctor, 1 Companion, 1 Dalek, 2 of most of the "odd" villains or aliens to round out the case.

what people means by availability is that being able to go to WalMart or Target to buy stuff.. Not all comic shops special orders toys or even orders toys at all... The ones here in Denver metro don't.. IF they do they mark it up by 100%. And they are talking about the 1:18th scaled ones which aren't available yet. ;)

I live in a small town. walmart and Big Lots are pretty much the only games in town. My other option is to pay internet premium prices. Though, this being something of a niche item, the internet might be cheaper than whatever brick and mortar stores might sell them. That's how most of my other hobbies are.

Yep, I was referring to a line not yet available anywhere (1:18), and for regular pricing. I do expect the assortment to be potentially as bad though, as it's rare that things are handled perfectly.

Wouldn't mind a 1:18 Romana (I or II), to keep my Baker company. Never understood why she was never made, even when Dapol was full on in production.

Interconnecting playsets!
I hope they'll make classic Doctors too.

I see the 4th Doctor too, but are they from the 1/18th line...
Any ways, I could use the Tardis to send my Joe team into wacky space and time adventures.

The Second, Fourth, and Fifth Doctors are 5". They are being repackaged with a monster and a card backdrop.
