I mean, with the return of RTD and the production move it's a fair bet we get an entirely new set. Probably a refreshed Police Box as well.

It'll be interesting if RTD decides to revert the designs of the Cybermen and the Sontarans

Probably all new going forward. I wouldn't be surprised if they tweak the Daleks again.

I'd genuinely love to see a version of the Doctor hunting monsters across time. Just toss some wheels on the Tardis and give him a sonic shotgun.

It's actually terrible because it's like a tease of how amazing a full Lego DW game could have been.

But no, it's the main reason I kept the Dimensions stuff, I like to run around that level just for the serotonin it gives me.

I'm curious, what were the general ratings like in the UK for the Smith era vs. the Tennant one? Because, as an American, while the revival was trending upwards all throughout Tennant's tenure, it was when Moffat and Smith took over that the show exploded in popularity here. You were much more likely to see merchandising and advertising with Smith's face on it then Tennant; the season 6 premiere stuff was all over the New York subway systems for a while, etc.

Smith and Gillan did a crapload of US tours, they seemed to realize they wern't marketing in the US heavily enough during the RTD era. Moff even did the US filmed episodes.

Yeah, the Smith era seemed huuuuge. Day of the Doctor had same day cinema screenings all over the US and they were packed out. I remember seeing a reaction video for “You know I really think you might.” and it was like the portals in Avengers: Endgame. :dance:

I went to such a screening and it was sold out, crazy times.

Rich Johnston (of Bleeding Cool) swore to high heaven that he'd seen production work of Anthony Ainley morphing into Eddie Izzard waaaaay back before Ian Holm and John Simm were brought in. He later went scorched earth and deleted every post he'd made about it but a lot of people had seen it so he just looked silly.

But what made me think of that is they should take a page (literally) from the comics and have Tennant come back as the Valeyard.

I'm guessing John Hurt ain't interested in the work? From the blurb though I suppose I don't have any issues with War Doctor having other aspects played by other Doctors, they're all the same person and it's sensible central nexus for their various pathoses.

Um, I hate to be the one to tell you this but John Hurt passed away 5 years ago.

The Lego Games are my favorite games, so buying Dimensions was a no-brainer, but you can be drat sure the Doctor Who expansion was the first one I bought.

In fact, I bought the expansion before I even had the core game.

Same haha! I had it preordered thinking it would just ne cool to have. Then it showed up and I was out the door an hour later to get the main game.
