    EE now has Sept. for Who - Aug. for SMDM and still July for Galactica and still Oct. for the TRADIS playset.
    While I don't like the looks of the delays I'm glad that Who, SMDM and Galactica aren't all coming in 1 month - that's a LOT on money in 1 month.

    Figures get delayed for many reasons - approval issues, quality control, not enough sales, etc. It really depends on each specific situation. There are situations where everything is 100% ready for production, but a studio may change their mind on something at the last minute, which delays production for 3-4 months. Each situation is unique.

    Well, i'm glad as well they all aren't coming out in one month. However i really want the Doctor Who series to come out a bit faster than one set of 4 every year. How else are you gonna get thru 11 Doctors and 30 companions?

    Speaking of, is everything still on track for SDCC? I haven't kept up with Hartnell news.

    Did they ever fix the problem with the Tom Baker hat? I seem to remember that it didn't fit. Did more get made with a bigger hat?
