Johnmiic,
it may not have been specifically to clamp down on Tom so much as production continuity. I suspect he was anoyed that each story they mixed up the costumes for Tom and Romana making his job as line PM harder. He was all about a uniform for all the characters for the entire season during his entire tenure.

One thing I noticed, the question marks are hidden under the jacket
Maybe Tom had a hand in that

Yep. This costume change was JNT's attempt to clamp down on Tom Baker. IMHO Mike, I don't think the 4th Doctor should be sloppy. Mainly his style was excessive. Lots'a curly hair, too-long a scarf, too many colors on the scarf, pockets full of trinkets, etc. I don't really have a problem with this style. If JNT wanted the colors to be more uniform one has to ask why not use the grey coat instead? Still, it was only for one season and it was a nice way to go out.
Ian, how can you tell the figure is not wearing boots? The scarf & coat cover the feet. I can't see what he's wearing.
Big Bad Toystore has this set listed for $30 Pre-Order. Cheaper than Doctor 1 & 2 SDCC exclusives but still high. I plan on getting it tho.

Instead of K-9 they should have had him come with Adric, which most people wouldn't buy Adric on his own anyway.Leave a comment:

yeah, it's another new head sculpt.
I was never a fan of the socks and shoes look. I prefered the boots.Leave a comment:

That's a nice figure.
I was never a fan of the burgundy outfit because I think it's too neat and coordinated for the fourth Doctor.
The fourth Doctor should wear something a bit more "sloppy"
Still, a REALLY NICE figure that i'd love to own someday.
Is that a new head ?Leave a comment:

Yep, I was looking at those 'Victory' posters as well..! Very Fun.

As i said, i would have bought the Tom and Peter in Burgundy outfits as a regeneration pack but it doesn't interest me enough to buy them seperately.
Try entertainment earth or big bad toy store.
If they don't have/aren't getting them i can help out with shipping from this end.Last edited by YANOULI; Aug 19, '10, 7:19 AM.Leave a comment:

I like the burgundy, actually. I don't have any of the other K-9 releases, so this is an interesting set for me.
Do you know BTW if they plan on making the Dalek To Victory posters available in the US? Because now I need one. Probably two... actually.Leave a comment:

Just got an email about this new Tom in his Burgundy outfit.
Doctor Who: Action Figures: Fourth Doctor in Burgundy Outfit s Gate @ Forbidden Planet
The downside is yet another K9.
I've never been a fan of this outfit but i would've bought it in a regeneration 2 pack with the Davison figure ( like they did with Eccleston/Tennant, Tennant/Smith and the Jacobi/Sim Masters ).
I guess it's all just a matter of time ( no pun inended ) before we get the figures we want.Last edited by YANOULI; Aug 20, '10, 8:36 AM.Tags: None
