I was just putting up some stuff on eBay. In amongst the items, I have a Natural Ood and Ood Sigma from Planet of the Ood. And I noticed that they both have different head sculpts. So I went off and checked, and yes, the Series 2 Ood figure also has a different head.

Compare and contrast with the Dapol Timelord figures, and this is why I love Character Options. They are crazy and dedicated enough to producing a good product that they go to this much trouble on a figure where using the one head on all three would do.

5 sided tardis console.

Hi I was wondering if anyone knows what a 5 sided tardis console with 7th DR and Mel and K9 would be worth. I still have the set in original box and was curious to find out a value for the set.

G'day. I've had a bit of a look around, but no real luck getting a modern price on the set. Things to keep in mind are that the newer generation of DW fans tend to be less interested in things from the old series, and older fans are busy buying the new stuff. Old toys, annuals, and books just aren't worth what they were. I've seen the very first DW annual, in near mint condition, sell for only $5! Twenty years ago they were going for $50-$100, ten years ago they were going for $20-$30.

The one price I found for your playset was $400 US ($500+ Aus) which is seriously overpriced in the current market. Much as I've always wanted one, I wouldn't pay more than $100 Aus myself, and I love collecting the old stuff. If you're ever looking at selling it, and someone offers you $100+, take it. You may do better, but it really is down to finding the right person at the right time.

Your best bet would be eBay or Oztion.com.au, (I'd recommend Oztion, because they won't kill you with fees, except they still don't quite get the traffic you need for a big sale) and to hope that two people who really want it happen to see it and get into a bidding war. Then they may well pay a lot more than they previously would have.

Of course all this assumes you want to sell it. If you don't, then just set your own minimum price you'd be willing to accept for it, and that's what it is worth to you :)

Hope this is some help. I'll keep an eye open and if I see any other prices for them I'll try to remember to let you know.
