Big Chief Studios - 1/6 - DALEKS!!!

[Wor-Gar]

Tempted by that Wisher model... but I think my painting days are far behind me. Just building it seems stressful enough -- gluing each individual dome on his chair!!?

Sadly, I have to wait for a complete one, and pay the price.

BCS posted some pics. Looks great with Pertwee.

 

[Holliday]

Arrg. I don’t even care for the Supreme Dalek color scheme, but it’s just so Pertwee. That Jon figure is going to be my ruination.

 

[DeadLeaves]

The warrior looks like the one for me.

What's the guess on the price range?

 

[Wor-Gar]

What's the guess on the price range?

See the price for K9... and add $100.


I imagine Daleks could be Big Chief's Iron Man or Mando... with many variations and a rainbow of colors to come.

I think I might hold for a black one, though the grey does look really nice.

It may not be accurate but I prefer the more orangey gold to the yellowy gold.

Unless I'm misinterpreting it looks like they are also doing some sort of muti-pack release. Maybe one of each, or two warriors and a commander. Have to wait and see, I guess.

Given just how extensively they can potentially use the same key resources for various colour variants down the track, I'm hoping that means these might not be quite as expensive as expected, but that's probably a fool's hope. Regardless, it's almost guaranteed they have me on the hook for every legitimate variant they roll out, unless they significantly screw something up along the way, because when it comes to 1/6th Who I'm definitely that guy...

The set would make for a very nice display...with the Dr and Master on either side

These prices are a joke.

Daleks

These prices are a joke.

Daleks

I figured so.

$387 each $323 (VAT excluded correction)

$1,164 for set of 3 (price NOT excluding VAT)

Unfortunately, that is what I call "priced out"

 

[Drake]

Bloody Nora, that's even (a bit) higher than my worst fears predicted. I don't know if even my hardcore Who fandom stretches that far*...

They had better at least fix the inaccuracies, but sucker for Who that I am ultimately I probably will still put them on a payment plan and just try not to think about the total cost...

Can't blame anyone for skipping these at that price, though. At all. Hell Who is my priority collection and I'm only fifty-fifty right now, depending on future details (like what they are actually made from).


*but it probably does.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Keep in mind, for the patient, these will be on Zavvi for $200 in 3 years.

I just can’t imagine how they will get any preorders for these given the price point. Any person who is willing to pay this much for a Dalek is going to have half a dozen Doctor Who products already on pre-order.

 

[Deathstalker]

I had thought about a Baker Doctor K9 and dalek purchase ( a nice tiny Dr. Who display far as I’m concerned) but these dalek prices are pretty much telling me not to bother with any of em.. what’s the point?
not spending what they want for these so why bother as to me I’d have a incomplete display then

 

[Drake]

I would like to know what the point of two packs and three packs are when they cost exactly the same as buying them all individually, and include nothing extra whatsoever...

BCS really are a puzzle sometimes.

They also need to tell us what these are made out of, that could well swing me one way or the other.

 

[BagginsOfBagEnd]

I thought these would be expensive. Love the Daleks but figure-wise they aren't really a must have for me tbh, I'd rather spend that money on another classic Doctor figure instead.

 

[GodParticle]

Yikes...those are pricey. For that amount they should be die cast

 

[Wor-Gar]

You would think with a reusable figure like a dalek that BCS would drive the price down to get everyone hooked. These could have been like colorful Clone Troopers -- collect all the colors.

But at this price, I won't buy one.


I'm extremely disappointed. I wanted the Daleks to be my gateway into Dr Who collecting. Had my eye on the new 4th Doctor. The Master. Hoping for Davros too. Of course, at this rate, Davros will be $450.

Oh well... this is clearly NOT The Time of the Doctor.

Woulda been my gateway drug as well.. EXTREMELY disappointed …

Ouch. Just read through the pricing of these daleks. The ex vat price of £233 per DALEK is quite high. Also, the 18 month payment plan is telling us that these won’t be available until 2023.
I think, these will be their first Who release that I do not preorder. I’d really like the set of three, and agree that those, with Pertwee would be fantastic.
Had these been in the £150 range, I would have been in there. However, my money is staying in my pocket on Friday I’m sorry to say.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I suppose BCS is catering to a more elite clientele.
