This time I look at the set based on the third Doctor adventure 'The Time Warrior' featuring the first appearance of the Sontarans in the form of Commander Linx!
I have been saying that this was the better set all along! The one thing i wanted CO to do was add more weathering to the ship, and they did it. This is one of the good ones, this is what the last 4 davros sets have been building up to!
Hi Matt, Love your action figure reviews. Especially your Pertwee and Tom Baker Doctor Who videos. Do you have a favourite costume or favourite episode of those two Doctors?
lol i love how you have a go at the modern sontarans. i do agree that it does look a little silly standing next to those two classic sontarans, perhaps if they made them a little taller and used the classic livery they'd look slightly better :)
COOLIOSIS!!!!!! Again GREAT review and I to love the Time Warrior and I can't wait to see a Sontaran adventure :) Also, they are apparently bringing back the Sontarans, but in this one, they look worse, the heal humans, they have nipples with milk in them, AND THEY ARE AWFUL!!!!!!!!! Can't wait till the next review :)
Wonderful lne "If you open it up it still looks like a portaloo" . I love how your annoyed by the inside of the ship. I was aswell. Theres like little to no space and the sontaran doesn't even fit in his own ship. Awesome lines continue with "How do you fly it theres no controls" 6:31 was an awesome bit. That noise you made was just so funny. Yes yes yes the helmet is a complete bugger to get on his head. Oh my dear Matt that bit when you said this is not what a Sontaran is suppose to look like
Fantastic! What an entertaining and talented youtuber you are! Probably your greatest figure review yet! And I agree with the new Sontarans looking dreadful, and they should defenitely redesign them to look like the classic design. :)
Continued from last: That bit where you said "This is not what a sontaran is meant to look like Made my day when you brought on the poorly designed sontarans from new series. Todays video was fun. You should defo do some more of you saying this is what it's suppose to look like. More views on New series. Yeah why can't they had movable heads. When displaying you can't turn his head. What Kind of Rumours. LOVED THIS VIDEO. Your comedy is bursting out everywhere Awesome
Wow, u clearly were very enthused about this set! U sounded very excited! Wouldnt you just love an invasion of time set with Commander Storr (with his cool helmet and silly little cockney head) two sontaran warriors with helmets that dont detach, and then a fourth dr re-release. I'd buy that for 35 quid, i'd finally have a classic Sontaran army! And I agree with u on the new sontaran designs, simply put WTF!
What a brilliant maybe the best one yet and yes you are completely right the new sontarans look inferior to Lynx and Styre and 11:41 was so funny I think I'll just pick this up someday :)
Another ace review! It looked as if you were cutting the titles to fit it into 15 minutes, apparently you can have videos longer then that now, just incase you didn't know. :)
You mention that you may need to re-touch the paint on this set. I was just wondering, what type of paints do you use to work on these figures. I need to retouch Linx's head a little and also the back of the Doctors Jacket.
I personally preferred the new design of the Sontarans because their muscular builds make them look more threatening as soldiers and their faces are a lot more detailed but probably my favourite thing about the new Sontarans are their big laser rifles are a lot cooler than those tiny guns that the old Sontarans carry
@MrHarrisonChase Ha ha, but surely apart from Storr helmetless they look like normal sontarans? Pretty much the styre figure and helmet, with the links hands but gloved?
Matt, I so know what ya mean about the modern Sontarons, they look like something from Marvel comics or something. With the stuff Pertwee necks, have you ever tried the freezer trick, the same one can use for the early classic Dalek sets?
Yeah, when the time comes, I'll try to get this one & get Styre loose. Shame about Pertwee legs. :/ Maybe I'm in the minority, but I actually like the Styre mask. It's after it that I feel the Sontaran masks went down hill. :P Yeah it looks like a mask, but I think I prefer the Styre mask over the Linx makeup/dome head because I've always found it too fake looking. I still like it though, I do, but I think the Styre mask is a little better.
@Solidsnakeprime501 I know I'd buy that set. Mainly just for the chance to get a Mini Sontaran Platoon in my collection, I'd flog the Doctor. A pity the Sontarans didn't appear in that episode until the end of Part 4.
carinaval of monsters. where he is in the marsh lands. if u look even though he is wearing boots. they do get covered in mud and als in death to the daleks. where there in the quarry
Not really. The mask looks like it's made of extremely thin rubber, it has this weird looking beard going on, and one of the Sontarans is taller than the other one. The Sontarans are meant to be clones and yet they look different from story to story. Before 'The Two Doctors' the Sontarans looked muscular but in that, they looked emaciated in comparison.
I agree that the new series design is pretty bad in comparison. The new Sontarans have got the old Sontaran spirit down- the fact that they are not the least bit afraid to die in battle- but apart from that, they look like a mutation in the clone species. They may not be the worst design (that honour goes to 'The Two Doctors') but they are most certainly not the best.
lol....totally agree with you about the original sontarans compared to the new version....I also prefer the figure of the originals too....the Sontaran stratagem figures are awful!!!..i despise their joints and articulation
i like the new sontarans, but i got to say none of the new ones so far could beat the linx figure, he is awesome, i just wish he come on his own instead of with the ship or 3rd doctor, thats the only reason i wont get it, i just want linx figure
@thedocwill how do you get the easter egg is well great review did linx have a hoilster sorry my memory :/ ah ha ah aha when you knocked him down ha ha wait did you just compare your self to the eyebrows i've never seen you i've heard you when will the honor of war be out can't wait and good empresion of linx oh my giddy aunt my almost all of my jon's also have JPAFS i knew it he didn't have mud i was right
Okay, you need to improve your grammar and spell the word beard right, but first and foremost, what do you mean "yh the same"? The Sontarans from 'The Two Doctors' looked completely different from the designs before or since. Well, maybe not completely different but the difference is in plain sight. The costume looked like a cheap knock-off Sontaran costume. That was necessary for the hot temperature in Spain, but my point still stands; the looked different.
