Is that the Clara TARDIS?


The titan line has a few different tardis figures. There is a giant trensalore tardis, regular, gitd, Van Gogh exploding tardis and Clara memorial mural. I think there might be a bad wolf one too

That’s all I can think of haha


I know of van Gogh and Bad wolf but just seen the Clara one. Didn't know about the other one's

I absolutely love the Kawaii Titans line. I'm not huge into the regular Titans minis, but the Kawaii ones are adorable. I've got all of them except for the 8th Doctor (how I've bought so many and never pulled him is beyond me), and the super-rare chases. I can live without those two chases, but I'd really like to get the 8th Doctor.

I’m surprised it’s not more popular. I would think it’s more popular than some of the other tv series they have done lately.

I really love them and hope they make other lines in that style. Titan has some great licenses (though American Horror Story may not exactly fit the Kawaii style), so it'd be nice to see them expand beyond their standard mystery minis.

Hopefully we'll get a couple characters from this wave? I really hope it's not just two leaked characters that were listed. (13th doctor + Missy)

Really hoping that there's a 9th season/Capaldi era Clara and more of the older characters.

I want a ton of characters still, as I've listed in a few different threads.

Overall though, I really just need the rest of the doctors and I'd be ok if they stopped the line....maybe.

2nd, 3rd, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th and 13th. Please and thank you! :D

At least three different versions of The Master (I’m not really a fan of Missy).

So so so many incarnations of Cybermen and I’d love a Tom Baker or Peter Davidson in Galifreyan Council robes

I grew up watching Peter Davidson, although Pertwee was my favourite.

Fingers crossed for them all!

So far it seems like the only two pops confirmed in this "next wave" is Missy and the 13th Doctor.
Doctor Who fans keep on getting the short end of the stick when it comes to releases... the last Doctor who wave only had 3 pops and they were all just variants of the Doctor. I hope Funko releases at least 4 or 5.

I hope they do release 4 or 5 too. I''m looking forward to seeing what Missy will look like though. My perfect wave of 5 would be a classic Doctor (5), a companion (Donna or Bill xD), Missy, 13 and another monster. Sadly if it is 4 or 5, most will probably be variants of 10, 11 and 12 lol

It's definitely frustrating waiting for new Doctor Who Pop!s -- there are multiple franchises that have a Pop! for practically every other character, even obscure ones, but we can't even get every Doctor. It's a head scratcher, that's for sure.

They're being careful, I think. After the line practically almost died they've been very selective going forward. It's kind of amazing we're still even getting Pops for it after the sales tanked so hard it was revealed they were about to be done with it.

I’ve read a few times the sales were bad and the line nearly died...how bad were they?!

I think the last couple of years haven’t seen the show popular in merchandising circles despite it being great on TV. Barely any action figures and toys during the Capaldi era...maybe the older Doctor isn’t as sellable to the youth!

The most expensive Doctor Who pop (excluding Fundays) is 12th Doctor in his spacesuit. I don't think that the 12th doctor isn't marketable, but that he wasn't marketed right... there were barely any merch/support for Capaldi before his tenure and personally he's my favorite!

I have to admit, it's extremely frustrating as a Who fan that the line doesn't sell very well. I see lines like Star Wars that I am not interested in get pops and other items for almost every single character, even small, random characters, and other lines like Who don't get much, or even worse, lines like Star Trek TNG or Firefly who sadly don't even have the main characters completed.

Just a bummer as a sci fan, the one sci fi series I'm not interested in is the one that has the most pops, ugh, lol.

100% agree. because i'm not a completist, im' so jealous that the star wars line allows it's fans to actually pick and choose who they want to collect.

Predictions for the next Doctor Who wave?

So far from the leaks, it only looks like there will be 2 pops in this wave: Missy and 13th Doctor.

Do you think Funko is delaying the announcements because there may be more?

As always: I'm hoping for a season 9 Clara (Waitress outfit, face the raven outfit)

I hope it's more than the three (including Clara memorial TARDIS). If they haven't done anything for SDCC, then they should give us a decent sized wave (5-6 Pops xD)! lol lol

I still think Funko thoroughly misunderstood Who merchandising initially, which bit them... If they'd just released a complete set of Doctor pops from the beginning, or given any hint of an intention to get them all out they'd have probably had a lot more fans bite!
