And I would not say no to an 8th Doctor Console. Just saying.

I'm surprised there is no third round of Romanas and Sarahs. It's usually three iterations.

I would only buy another Romana II if she appeared in her outfit in State Of Decay.

Hey, guys... a quick question. I'm hoping someone knows!
When it comes to all the recent B&M Dalek packs, are any of those Daleks different from previously-released ones, or are all they straight repacks? Aside from the Jungles of Mechanus ones, of course.
Thanks!

Not straight repacks, few examples, Dead Planet Daleks have a couple of lines on their back, which the original props had to distinguish which Dalek was which & the Dalek Invasion Earth Daleks have an open and close iris just like the Dead Planet Daleks. Also, the paint is more metallic.
Link to a video I did on these.

Thanks very much! I'll watch that now.
Darn, I was hoping not to have to buy them. Ah, well. Can you possibly tell me which other ones are new? It's not all of them, is it?

The Chase set is just a repaint with the Chase guard Dalek, Master Plan is the flamethrower and supreme Dalek. I did a video on that too.

Very nice!
Okay, so to get all the new Daleks I need to get the Dead Planet set, the Invasion Earth set, the Chase set, and the Masterplan set. Yikes.
While we’re on the subject, would you happen to know if Ace and her Dalek were new in any way?
Thanks again!

The grey on the midsections of the Daleks are a much lighter grey than the originals.
The bases on the Invasion ones have grey brush strokes to show wear. The Ace set uses the mold for the renegade version as it has mesh on the shoulder slats that the original release had them as smooth.

I'm sure you're aware there's no rule saying you "have" to purchase them.
Me personally, i don't usually buy them if they're just minor paint variations of previous releases, unless they're in a set that has something actually new in it also (in which case I usually sell-off one the 'duplicate' anyway). But, that's just me.

Came across this on the "interwebs" and thought it was too funny not to share. I especially like the Chibnail figure with Punchable Face.
