More Doctors Heading Into The Vortex
Tim Knight flagged up the following news: Doctor miniatures selling in packs of three, somewhat oddly distributed - 1, 4, 10 and 5, 11, 12. Nice new 12, certainly.
Thanks for the mention. I suspect the distribution is purely a commercial consideration (e.g. if all the 'modern' Doctors were in one box, a certain segment of their demographic would only buy that box - this way they are 'forced' to buy both to get the three modern Doctors!)
Yes, I'd've liked the "single purchase" option as well, but then, of course, they'd end up with reserves of the "unpopular Doctors" and sell-out quickly on the "popular Doctors".

ReplyDeleteProbably, yeah. Citadel went chronological, but that was when there were only five.
DeleteBut I'm old-fashioned and would like to buy them singly.
