Re: One Sixth Scale Skirmish Squads, you Scandalous Scallywags
Glad you like the Cyberman Gatack,it's an excellent figure and cheap too at £14.99,I already have a second one and will be getting the Cyber Leader next time I'm in Toys R Us (it's an Exclusive in the UK). So far Character Options are doing an excellent job with the Dr Who license especially with the smaller figures. The 1/6 figure of the current (10th) Doctor is a bit dodgy but the Cybermen and R/C Daleks are fantastic and the new Ood and Clockwork Soldier set for release this year look pretty decent too.

Re: One Sixth Scale Skirmish Squads, you Scandalous Scallywags
Apparently FPI reckons they've already got the 1/6 ood in stock but I'm gonna wait till I see it in the shops as I won't have to pay shipping.
Can't believe how much those early Dr Who figures are going for on Ebay, they were just out last April and they're already 3 or 4 times the price.
BCM, have you seen the new twin packed figures, they're nice if you want to get your hands on figures that otherwise wouldn't have been made?
So far I've got the Slitheen and Space Pig and Captain Jack and The Empty Child, there's a Dalek, Rose with Metal Spiders and an Auton two pack as well though.
I've got the Cyber Leader at home above my computer on a shelf, I'll take a pic when I get chance, it's a nice figure but the disc keeps falling out of it's chest.

Yeah the early ones have gone for ridiculous prices as does the TRU Exclusive Cyber Leader with Throne & 2 Guards box set which I managed to get from the TRU website. I've seen the new 2-packs and plan on getting some the next time I've some spare cash (I've got a few bills to take care of at present ). Whilst I am not normally in favor of repaints or rereleases instead of all new characters the Dr Who ones don't bother me so much as you are getting a new figure as well and I'll just give the doubles to my niece who's really into Dr Who at the moment. My most anticipated Dr Who item this year is the Product Enterprises 1/6 Tom Baker (4th) Doctor which looks fantastic and I'm sure there will be some figures from the 3rd "new" series before the end of the year to further stretch my resources. I really could do with a big lottery win to help pay for all this stuff lol!!

I never liked the series and would mock it senseless. But I saw some episodes of series two and was hooked. It was damn good. Then I saw the season finale and was blown away. Now I'm a fan. Who knew?

Re: One Sixth Scale Skirmish Squads, you Scandalous Scallywags
My medicom blade was a christmas present for $253. I know it's a helluva lot but it really really is worth every damn penny. He is amazing. I didn't think I'd like him this much.
The sad thing is I saw him in the DVD box set in an electronics store in Japan. He was unopened but the DVDs were used. It was a total of ￥18000 which was about £90. I should have brought him back with me but the weight of my suitcase was already well over the limit. and i was running out of funds. i went there to look for a job and just came back with toys. very nice toys, but a job and nice toys would have been better.

Re: One Sixth Scale Skirmish Squads, you Scandalous Scallywags
That's funny, I got mine from global distributor also. The auction I won was the exact same as the one you posted - $219 no DVD's, and it was part of X-Mas present from the wife as well. 
I'll heartily vouch for that seller too. Top notch service all the way. Got it here in the US very quickly, and well packed.
