Sontaran Strategem Box Set Pic

Here's a tiny little pic from doctorwhotoys.net of the 4-figure set. Now, this could be a similar situation to the Valiant Set where it's not correct. Or maybe it is. We won't know until CO give official word.

Cool! It looks too ace to be incorrect but I would have thought that they would have put a UNIT soldier in the pack...

Sontar-HA!
Glad they made Staal, Skorr, and soldier variants. They even put in the wand and two guns! I hope this isn't like the Valiant set, which was not a final image. I'll be so angry if any of these sets come with another 10th Doctor figure, with the exception of the aged Doctor(s).

Yeah, I agree Dalek Sec, unless he's in a really cool outfit like the Tux (Grr... CO - release one! Mad

) they souldn't put another Doc in the sets, I got like 4 10th Docs

Only 4? Lucky! I think I have 6 distinct variations! And yet I still want the Time Crash set and the Ghost Transmission Gear Doctor... eek.

This set looks fan-freakin'-tastic! I hope WhoNA gets them, and soon! Smile

Here's the MUCH larger picture in case anyone has missed it.

I want it now! This is definitely one set I'll be getting.

Yes, please. Is it too much to hope all the Sontarans come with helmets? Probably, but I can dream.

Just to say that Staal and Skorr have removable helmets and the trooper doesn't. That's from Designworks themselves.

I really like that there are three Sontarans in the set. It might be better if the Donna were different but I"m sure
there will be some sort of series four Donna figure.

At least we won't get yet another 10th Doctor figure.

Does anyone know if all the Sontarans in this set come with helmets?

I believe they do.

Niiiiiiice!

I found it curious that they released Skorr on a single card before Staal, given that Staal had a larger role. Now I know why.

Definitely picking up this set for sure!!

My only qualms with this set is the lack of a third rifle. If you were to purchase multiple sets for army building, some of your troops would just have sticks! Not a very imposing militant race with sticks!

That- and the inclusion of Donna. I want a Donna figure, but I really think CO would make much higher sales of these sets if they were just army builders. Especially since this identical Donna will be available separately.

The best part about the Genesis Ark set is the FOUR Daleks you get. And the Ark too! I think that is my favorite box set so far.

And that Donna sculpt looks great! They do such good likenesses.

But yeah, army builder on this one. I would happily buy a box of four Sontarans without a Donna or a Doctor.

And the Ark set is fun, but it would be more fun if the ark was actually dimensionally transcendental.

I'm getting the box, but I did get a spare Donna (for a possible custom if I ever get the milliput I ordered a month ago!) and the Sontaran Trooper figure.

Can't wait for this set.

If anyone is planning on getting a couple sets to army-build, I'll take an unwanted extra Donna off of your hands.

I'm going to get an extra DN to customize, but I could always use another in case I muck it up. Smile

hmmmmmmmmm sounds like an idea. Depends on the price you have to offer. I have heard the initial releases of series four figures is going to be allocated as well. Uncomfirmed but it wouldnt surprise me
