Can't wait 'till you guys add the Torchwood crew with Captain Jack, his "cannot be killed power" might be unbalancing.
Plus it'll give me time to find miniatures for all of them!

The thing with Jack is that when he's "killed" it usually takes several minutes or even hours for him to "get better". This could be covered by a random dice roll, or with the severity of his wounds factored in - eg pistol shot add two turns to the score, Dalek exterminator add 10, or whatever. You may get him back in a few of moves or have to wait for the next game - assuming, of course, he isn't captured in the mean time.

This should help to stop him becoming too powerful in the game.

Warren - sorry!!

It's true, the core rules currently lean toward the classic series.

However, you'll see Rose and the first three series of New Who well represented in Bad Wolf, Welcome to Torchword and The Last of the Time Lords supplements all available to download from here:

They're made of soft bendy plastic so are likely to flex a bit, however that does make it easy to remove them from the integral base if you want to

Comparing them to metal figures they are very slight in build (especially the characters) and the detail is rather lost under the quick factory paint jobs

However, the figures like the slitheen, werewolf etc are quite serviceable!

You can also make very passable Whovian figures with the cut-up and pasted-together remains of various Clix singles in the discount bin.

I made a David Tennant doctor from The Question's body with I think astro-boy or wonderboy's head.  It sorta worked; more so after I painted the shoes as red converse.

Foggy, I swear you must be Frankenstein reincarnated!!  :o lol

I got them, Uti. Thanks. I retract my lack-of-Rose complaint.

Wasn't something said about a living, breathing, 1:1 scaled clone in a future supplement?  ;D
