Doctor Who Figurine Collection Issue 1 Review Part 2

Hello,
I'm reviewing the brand new Doctor Who Figurine Collection Issue 1.This is Part 2 of the review.Let's get started!


The Magazine

I like love this cover.It's sleek and well presented.The cover is amazing.I'm speechless.

The introduction page is great.You get a summary of the Eleventh Doctor's role in "The Pandorica Opens".It is quick and short,so you can focus on the rest of the book.Next page,it is similar in the next page,but instead for learning about the Doctor in "The Pandorica Opens" you learn about the costume and origins.Going off-task,I have photos of Matt Smith's original costume ideas.

Looking at that,you learn about Ray Holman's tough job for making the bow ties popular again.And there is a picture of the Eleventh Doctor with boxes of text with arrows pointing at different elements of the suits giving you a inside story about the bit of the costume.The next page just includes the bit you were reading on page 4.There is a briefing on the Eleventh Doctor's hats.I find it utterly rubbish.You might expect something like this in Doctor Who Adventures,I recommend something on bow ties, but hats!A hat is not even on the figurine(even though they should of done a fez).Next,is about the episode of "The Pandorica Opens" and then about the legendary scene:
And then it turns into a mess,talking about The Underhenge and the Cybermen.They should of talked about the FX team making all those spaceships and the script and writing the scene.

Next you learn about events that happened in Doctor Who during 1963.I like this bit.It does give you a hint that there will be more than 50 issues.

Next we learn about the TARDIS.I do like the whole section,but the TARDIS talk makes it a bit from Doctor Who Adventures,which is a letdown.

And finally,you have a Q&A,which I like.You learn about things you wouldn't ask.Finally Finally,you get a summary about Steven Moffat's life and career.

Thank you for reading my first review.

P.S-I found a picture of the Tenth Doctor's figurine
