tafkatb Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Like, I realize the Dimensions packs only have one minifigure and a brick-build, but... Why would the Dalek in the set be any different if not for new molds? Aside from maybe color, I mean... The in-game Dimensions Daleks look like the one in the pack as well... Because the builds in the Dimensions packs are designed to be rebuilt multiple different ways, meaning they need to consist of more basic, versatile parts, often resulting in a blockier look overall.

DarthPotato Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Meh, if that's true about the Daleks then that's a little disappointing to me. I get that the Dimensions one is made with the rebuildable feature in mind, but it'd be nice if we had one clear build for the Daleks instead of two different ones. Even though the Dimensions Dalek is a little blocky, I think it's actually sort of charming and would work perfectly well in the Ideas set. Quote
deskp Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 DImentions dalek is perffeclt fine. if a set one is betetr thats great too. Quote
Jared Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 So, just curious, has anyone pre-ordered yet? I just preordered both Doctor Who as well as the Cyberman and Dalek pack. Quote
dmarvin Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 So, just curious, has anyone pre-ordered yet? I just preordered both Doctor Who as well as the Cyberman and Dalek pack. I pre-ordered two of the Dalek/Cybermen packs. One can never have enough of them, right? I'm waiting before pre-ordering the pack with the Doctor. If nothing in it winds up being unique from the IDEAS set, there's no reason for me to buy since I don't intend to buy the game right away. Quote
dr_sarcophagus Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 My bet is on a brick built Dalek. LEGO studs are just too perfect for Dalek knobs. Quote
VTsquatts Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 I have preordered 2 cyberman packs and the Doctor pack. Just waiting impatiently for some more news about the Ideas set!!! Quote
dmarvin Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 where can you pre-order them? I preordered through Amazon (US). Quote

Just waiting impatiently for some more news about the Ideas set!!! Nice! I ordered two just in case as well! where can you pre-order them? I preordered through Amazon (US). As dmarvin said, pre-order is available through amazon us (http://www.amazon.com/Warner-Home-Video-Not-Machine-Specific/dp/B010R2RHME/ref=sr_1_1?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1440457263&sr=1-1&keywords=lego+doctor+who) I originally pre-ordered through amazon CAD, but then I discovered best buy was doing free shipping on over $20CAD and they offer same day release delivery so you don't have to line up in the store, etc. ^_^ Hope that helps!

VTsquatts Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 You can never have too many Daleks or Cybermen Jared!!!! Quote
Frozen Assasin Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 So, what is it finally ? 'Cause if it's only an Idea's set, then the people at Lego are dumbasses who are missing at least 3 complete lines of great and awesome sets. Quote
CM4Sci Posted August 25, 2015 Author Posted August 25, 2015 We've heard nothing else other than 21304 Doctor Who is just an Ideas set. Quote
Frozen Assasin Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 We've heard nothing else other than 21304 Doctor Who is just an Ideas set. Like I said. I mean, like, every DW fan who is also a Lego fan can name you at least one set a Doctor. Out of the top of their heads. I would do that right now, but I'm at work, so... Quote
dmarvin Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 Well, there's no way that one LEGO Ideas sets and a few Dimensions packs will satisfy the whole Doctor Who/LEGO fan base, but it's better than nothing. And like the submitter of the Ideas set iterated, Doctor Who works with virtually every other LEGO theme in existence. So as long as you have a TARDIS, at least one Doctor (with sonic screwdriver), and a couple of the more difficult to MOC villains (like Cybermen & Weeping Angels), you're in business. All we can do to convince LEGO to make more is to deplete LEGO's supply of sets in record time. I, for one, will not rest until my collection includes the 11th Doctor, River Song, and Jack Harkness.

Richila Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 I, for one, will not rest until my collection includes the 11th Doctor, River Song, and Jack Harkness. YES! Quote
GandalfofHoth Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 (edited) I, for one, will not rest until my collection includes the 11th Doctor, River Song, and Jack Harkness. I would love to see all of those, I'd also love to see the 10th Doctor (David Tennant), but I doubt they'll ever make a set with him if this is all the DW we're getting.

I actually meant to say David Tennant (10th Doctor) instead of the 11th! Brain fart! Or maybe I was counting the War Doctor? :) But Matt Smith would be my second choice. We also need Oods, Silurians, Sontarans, etc. Quote
dr_sarcophagus Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 A Matt Smith Doctor would be my fave. And I hope for brick built Daleks using common parts so I can easily build an army. Quote

No matter what, you could always model your army after the one in the Dimensions set. It looks totally brick built and you can find those bricks in numerous colors easily. It looks like the top has printing on it, but that's the thing that appears to make it unique. Quote
VTsquatts Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 Yea I hope for a 10th Doctor set as well. And a 4th. I collected the Doctor minifigures from Character Building (Cobi Blocks) as well as some sets but can't wait to see what Lego does!!! Quote

I would love that as well - even though I was terrified of Doctor Who at the time. Loved the opening sequence, then had to turn it off. Quote

Artanis I Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 Me too. Got creeped out regularly by the obviously fake costumed aliens. I watched the first few series of the show when it was restarted, but lost interest because it was too childish. I liked David Tennant though. Haven't watched it for a few years now, but I'll pick up these sets (if there are sets) for sure. Quote
