The new Dr Who Adventures comic is out….with 8 silence and 8 silurians.

They're a bit taller than usual – the silurians about 30mm, and the Silence pushing 35mm. The silence are quite a static standing pose, whilst the Silurians are advancing at a walk with a power weapon held horizontally in front of them.

Pretty nice sculpts – 16 figures for £2.50 GBP, I got two packs ! Could be time to brave the snow again !

Thanks for the heads up. I will try Ebay.

I live in the States, and always miss out on these great finds. Doctor Who adventures has had a ton of cool minis attached to it in the last year…….'sigh'.

Hey Thieses, send me your address and I'll send a copy over as long as you cover the costs by paypal etc. I've done it for a few people on LAF.

Took a look at these at my local supermarket today. IMHO these are very poor. The Silurians are nearly as tall as the Silence (about 30mm) and have virtually no detail. I was reasonably pleased with their previous figures – Daleks, Cybermen and Weeping Angels, but I'll pass on these.

Dozing Dragon, thanks for the offer, I just sent you an email I really appreciate it.

I didn't think a lot of these sculpts either. I've seen better models of things in christmas crackers

I think they have a bit more detail than you may think – the day-glo yellow plastic on the Silurians doesn't help, but when you have them out of the package it's a bit easier to see.

Good enough for me anyway.

At work again – popped into my newsagents and have got 2 copies of the latest one, they are looking into the last one and will tell me on Tuesday (although they don't hold out much hope)….more later from home email….after sleep. These night shifts…………..

Dozing Dragon, thanks this is outstanding.
