Action Figure Report: The Dæmons Collectors Set

The most recent classic Doctor Who action figure set to be released is from the Jon Pertwee story The Dæmons. So another Brigadier figure that (when this is released) we will always have two of, and a cool Master variant, and the new addition of Bok. I'm sensing a bit of a pattern here. Two old figures with a slight change or a different variant plus one new figure.

This set is £29.99 and available to pre-order from Forbidden Planet, it is meant to be released on 2nd September 2013.

Future 'Pyramids of Mars' Sutekh Figure (With New Head & Glowing Eyes)

A documentary based around Doctor Who toys called Doctor Forever! - Celestial Toyroom was recently featured on the DVD release The Aztecs: Special Edition. In an interview with Alasdair Dewar from toy company Character Options this new Sutekh figure from the Doctor Who story 'The Pyramids of Mars' was demoed; it features a different head and light-up eyes. 

Above is the previous Pyramids of Mars Set, featuring Sutekh (with Osiran head) and two Robot Mummy Guards. So it looks like we'll have another Pyramids of Mars set to look forward to at some point in the future...

Action Figure Report: Claws of Axos Collectors Set

This lovely little set from the Jon Pertwee story 'The Claws of Axos' has just been announced and features the Brig, Jo and a humanoid Axon. It's a great set but perhaps a little badly placed just after the previous release of 'The Three Doctors' Collectors Set, featuring two of the same figures, albeit with different clothes. This little beaut is expected for release 31st July 2013 and is available exclusively online from forbiddenplanet.co.uk

The set features:

- Brigadier action figure in jersey with U.N.I.T. beret and pistol.

- Jo Grant action figure.

- An Axon in Humanoid form action figure.

All three look like pretty good sculpts. It'll be nice to be able to put together with other figures from The Claws of Axos.
