Wellingborough Victoria Park B&M has a few sets this morning. 7 lots of 4th Doctor Companions (well, 6 lots now :D), plus 1 lot each of the two Dalek sets and 13th friends and foe. Also have loads of 7th, 8th and War Doctor with Dalek and half a dozen Pertwee and TARDIS left as well. (The two different lots of releases are in different parts of the toy aisle).
For the first time in a couple of weeks i managed a look in at my local B&MS in Baglan, Port Talbot, South Wales, they had the Troughton/Tardis, 4th Doctor Companions, The UNIT gang and a few of the new 2 Dalek sets as well as a couple of Big Finish from earlier in the year and 3 figure sets (2 Doctors, Harry/Sontaran) from last year, only new figure pack i did not spot was the Yaz, Ryan Judoon set.
The Lancaster B&M store has loads of 4th Doctor Companions sets and quite a few of both Dalek sets, especially set 2.
 That’s a first. Never had anything for years!
Wow, I second that. Pretty sure they didn’t get any of last year’s sets in at all, so this really is a turn for the books!
I think this is now going to the case more to go around my local one in Cornwall never used to get many I but this year they had the lot!!
GOGS1 has made it impossible to leave feedback (which Amazon suggested I do and even emailed me the link), as though they have a board, there is no option to add feedback to it. Hopefully the negatives relayed to Amazon provide a roadmap for GOGS1 to continue in a better more customer service quality oriented way. If not, I for one who’d rather pay inflated prices to get these sets in proper condition. I honestly don’t think GOGS1 could have botched this all any worse than they have. Too good to be true, indeed.
Just a quick note for US buyers….I pre-ordered all items in the same night…shipping is wildly erratic with sets saying they shipped, then backtracking and saying there is a delay, and a lot of back and forth on when they are arriving.
Having said that…I’ve gotten 3 sets so far, and the Mint in Package collectors should be warned that all (including the 2nd Doctor and TARDIS set) were sent in padded envelopes and every single set has arrived with the box brutalized and damaged. If you haven’t gotten yours and can add instructions….request Amazon send them in a box!
You can contact Amazon with your order number, and request that the sets be shipped in protected sturdy boxes. They said they would make a note to the shipping/fulfillment centers mine would ship from and see to it that this was done. I’ll be finding out when my last two sets arrive on 8/18.
I’ll have to order another set in padded envelopes to go with my other set from B & M bargains.
Basingstoke is restocked. As of about an hour ago, lots and lots of dalek sets, plenty of companions and a couple of claws sets.
No Tardis that I could see. They’re with the funko pops on the end of the aisle.
Loads of each set in the Colne, Lancs store as well as several Pertwee / TARDIS sets.
I bought the Troughton / TARDIS set.
Just completed my full set – Just need to wait for October to get the next 8 when released.
I did the little ‘Found figures’ dance (in my head) in Reading Brunel B and M. UNIT, Daleks and 4th companions!!!!! Happy, happy, happy!
Any 13th companion sets?
After ten consecutive days of the app saying ‘good stock’ at Willesden, with nothing on the shelves, I took a couple of days off. Went in this morning and saw TONS of the Thirteenth Doctor sets on the shelf, about thirty of them, and one Companions of the Fourth Doctor set, which I grabbed. Asking, I was told all the Classic sets came in on Saturday and were bought up the same day. AAAARRGHHH!
