Unboxing: Dr Who Exterminate!
January 2, 2018 by dignity
One for the Whovians amongst you; we have the miniatures game Dr Who Exterminate! from Warlord Games.
Players will take on the roles of some of the Doctor's most dangerous enemies - the devious Daleks and the unyielding Cybermen.
The 24 "easy-fit" plastic miniatures are designed to be pushed together allowing for a quick build without the need for glue.
How do you like the idea of taking on the role of the villains from this BBC cult classic?

I haven’t seen the game played, and I would want to give it a few goes before picking up the sets. However, I know I want the six Doctor promo with K-9 that they currently have.

There are a couple more Dalek variants than 4, my favorite being the Special Weapons Dalek, which is kinda like their mobile tank.

Tom Baker is, and will always be, my Doctor. For me, he was my childhood hero. The Doctor preferred intelligence over prowess and screwdrivers over guns. Such are the preferences that I built my life upon.
Sorry guys, you have gotten the history of the show so wrong.
Doctor Who started in 1963, way before “The A Team”.
There have been heaps of different forms of Cybermen.
I’ll stop there.
lol, you as old as me or just know your Doctor Who history.
Maybe both.
Born the year it started but know my Who history, but not as well as some.
I know people that have appeared on the NZ version of Mastermind with Doctor Who as their specialist subject, so I never claim an in depth knowledge.
lovely models, Cybermen for the win…
May have accidently ordered the dr who bundle …oops
Yeah, the earliest Dr.Who was a lot earlier than I think you guys were thinking. I’m no big Whovian though, just happened to have caught a few bits about its history. My favourite was Tom Baker, probably because his episodes were on a lot when I was a kid, and Tom Baker is generally pretty awesome.
They did a kind of failed mini-reboot with I think it was Paul McGann? A millennium themed thing. That I really liked, because it was more like dark, modern, gritty Sci-Fi. I watched one episode of the more recent reboot (the first one, with the dustbins coming to life) and I thought “Oh no, we are back to McCoy and the Bertie Basset monster, not for me” and left it at that. I hear from a lot of people it got a lot better not long after that into the David Tennant era and so on.
@dignity you are 100% right with Jessica Jones, I didn’t watch it for so long, and when I finally did I think it was one of my favourite shows on netflix.
As for Star Trek Captains, well Jean-luc has to be my choice of Captain (when my wife and I were at a convention modiphius were doing a promotion where you could get a free Captain mini if you said which was your favourite. She made me say Kirk so we could get both models, even though we both knew it was a lie 😉 ) But my favourite series is DS9, especially the later seasons. It has several of the best double acts (key to the Star Trek formula) and it was one of the earliest shows I watched that moved from that “problem of the week” to “ongoing story” model. I know everything is that way now, but back then it was really progressive. Also the episode, I think it’s called “In the pale moonlight” is possibly the best episode of Star Trek ever made.
My favourite……………..I don`t really have one, for me it was the first four doctors……………….William Hartnell…..Patrick Troughton…..Jon Pertwee and of course Tom Baker (Would you like a Jelly Baby). After Tom Baker i lost interest, i did try and watch a few of the other`s, but could never get in to them and as for Sylvester McCoy……where`s the rope.
When the film with Paul McGann come along i watched it and found it to be………..interesting, watched it a few times and it sort of grow on me. When Christopher Eccleston come along, me and the misses decided to give it a go and we`ve been hooked that was until Peter Capaldi took over. I thought he did his best, which is what any actor can do when given the opportunity to play Dr Who, but i know there are lot`s of fans who could`t wait for him to leave. When David Tennant took over, it was a whole new ball game. I pitied the poor guy who slagged of David. To many women he was not just the doctor, he was sex in a long coat with a blue box. Matt Smith sort of carried on where David left of, and for me did a good job.
We have Jodie Whittaker playing the Doctor, many people don`t like the idea of this, but these things can happen. Now i`m not saying we should have a female Dr, but when Matt`s Dr got the extra boost of energy off the “Time Lord`s” it become a whole new ball game. Matt`s Dr got an energy boost he should never of got, there for we now have a female Dr we should not have. Times change, and besides maybe the TARDIS has had enough of all those men and fancied a change………………After all the TARDIS is FEMALE
I have a sprue of the Cybermen, which now means i`m gonna have to look into the game…………….The hard choices we simple minded man have to make, now where`s the bank card.
It’s all about Captain Kirk fighting and f@#%ing his way out of every situation! Kirk for the win!
nice one guys.
That ‘1st’ Doctor of the ‘new’ series is Christopher Eccleston
I guess being a tank god means not having to remember trivial stuff like names for people who didn’t do anything tank related … 😉
