I picked 2 up from WHSmiths in Newcastle (Northumberland St), got loads still (about 30 mins ago) if anybody is after them. Don't look too bad. :)

Hi
I have picked up 4 spare copies if anyone would like them. Plastic seems a bit fragile as one copy has a broken one :-[ , am keeping that copy.
Just let me know.

Is there more than one DW magazine?

Just tried another source and they have a DW magazine but its sealed in a bag and all it has with it is some free posters.   
Don't!

There seems to be 3 Dr Who magazines  ;D
I got some very strange looks when I got mine.

you need Doctor Who Adventures (DWA) which is a young kids comic really... Doctor Who Magazine (DWM) has been around for decades and is more fan orientated, with behind the scenes articles and reviews and stuff... there used to be a Battles In Time magazine as well, don't know if that is still about - supported the CCG...

quick pics... although everyone must have seen them somewhere by now...



the change in the dome to a lower 'tommy helmet' shape is curious... maybe a new look for the 2012 series and they are getting in early... the earlier release of the iDaleks (orange) certainly look more like the iDaleks we know and loathe (ok, they grew on me), but the new release seems crisper on detail...

I don't suppose they just trimmed a bit off, so that the pack would fit in the space between the title logo and the bottom of the page?

Thanks for posting the scans and pics!  I wish DWA had published a front view of the Sontarans.  Unfortunately it looks like the arms are fused to the body so not much room for easy customization.  I think I will probably pass on them.   (yea--fewer figures in the unpainted pile!  ;) )

that is an annoyingly logical marketing point of view... you could be right you know...

AEG.  Nice Pics, thanks.  By the way, where did you get that size of plastic base?  I tried like hell to find some that weren't too big or too small.  Are those 35mm?  who makes them?   I have a bunch of these on the way and want to base them up with my previous ones.
This is my boomstick!

I think the flattened dome looks a little better--wonder if it is a glimpse of what is to come or if as you say was done for marketing/space reasons.
