We are almost at the midway point of the year, so I'm wondering what else everyone is looking to pre-order for 2017? On the announced side, the final two Torchwood single releases, The Early Adventures s.4 and Survivors s.7. I'm still not completely sold on Hamlet or Doctor Jekyll and Mister Hyde. I'm thinking I will probably order whatever Blake's 7 is announced and hopefully Dark Shadows: Bloodline is announced & released this year. That is a automatic sale. And unless BF wheels out some huge & unexpected surprise, I think I'm done. I hope I'm done.

I don't preorder. My list of stuff announced and on my to get list is 500 pounds worth, so I really can't afford to pay out before I have to.

I'm thinking about the First Doctor Vol. 2 Companion Chronicle, but kind of waiting to see if there'll be any sales on related stuff when it comes out.
I'll order whatever Blake's 7 that comes out, as well.
Still thinking about Hamlet and the various BF Classics releases.
When it gets closer to the end of the year, I'll pre-order the next batch of 4th Doctor Adventures.

Jekyll and Hyde doesn't have a release date yet. I am not entirely sure it is scheduled for 2017.

In terms of pre-orders there's a couple of Doctor Who related things: Third Doctor Adventures - Volume 3 and UNIT 5: Encounters; there's Torchwood: Aliens Among Us; Jago & Litefoot: Series 14 will likely be announced some time in the near-ish future for October, so I'll be getting that; I may get The New Counter-Measures: Series 2, depending on whether I've caught up to it by then (which I hope to!); and I might also get The New Adventures of Bernice Summerfield 4: Ruler of the Universe, depending on whether the first three series go on sale before it comes out. In terms of waiting for bundles (the reduced shipping is unbelievable!), I'll be picking up Torchwood 13-18 in August, The Early Adventures: Series 4 in January, and probably The Fourth Doctor Adventures: Series 6 at the same time (I'm waiting for Tom Baker's next birthday sale before attempting to catch up on the 4DAs - I have the first three series, and I'm hoping that a least Series 4 will be on sale next time I'll grab Series 5 & 6 at full price at the same time, as I can't be bothered waiting another two years for both of them to have gone on sale ). Depending on the release schedule of the upcoming Blake's 7 releases, I'll pre-order if it's box set/s or wait for a bundle if it's a subscription Beyond these, there will undoubtedly be more stuff that is as of yet unannounced; I'll order what it/they is/are on the above rules Also, expanding on the thread title, I'll be picking up as much as possible from the following sales: Companion Chronicles, Counter-Measures, Dalek Empire, Early Adventures, The New Adventures of Bernice Summerfield, Novel Adaptations, and Short Trips. This isn't mentioning my hope to grab another couple of Main Range subscriptions by the end of the year... There are other ranges I'm also seriously considering looking into (such as Survivors and The Omega Factor), but they'll have to wait until I've recuperated from every thing else listed above Does that answer the question? If so, may I pose my own: Who wants to start taking bets on how long it'll be before I'm broke?

Blake's 7 and Unbound Benny 2 will be both post-tax purchases. Tenth Doctor 2 is up in the air ATM, I never liked that era, and that pairing was 80% of the reason I didn't, but I never liked Tennant and Tate but really enjoyed BFs volume 1.

I think I've just about pre-ordered everything currently announced in 2017 that I'm interested in, with the exception of The Martian Invasion of Earth. Depending on what the Blake's 7 release looks like, I might or might not get that - I'm still only on Season 2 at the moment. I think there'll be a few more releases toward the end of the year that haven't been announced yet - like The Diary of River Song Volume 03, maybe? - so I'm planning on preparing for an emergency pre-order or two in the near future.

I haven't ordered / pre-ordered:
* Churchill Chronicles 2 * Bernice Summerfield 4 * Torchwood 5: Aliens Among Us * UNIT 5 * Hamlet
But there may be additional surprises. I just purchased 10DA vol.2, for example.

I'm pretty much up to date with all my DW pre-orders. I think the only ones I haven't ordered are the Doctor Chronicles (and still not convinced enough to order). My biggest order gap is Dark Shadows - I still need to get the last three short stories (Dreams of Long Ago, Love Lives on, Shadows of the Night), the Tony & Cassandra Mysteries, of course Bloodline (when announced).
And whatever else BF decide to announce before the end of the year (Blake's 7 ...)
Cheers
Tony

I have a rather limited budget (and space) for BF stories, picking up most of the stories I own on sales, the only upcoming release I'm planning on pre-ordering at the moment is The 8th Doctor Time War boxset (with pre-orders I usually do so at the last minute anyway)...though I'll be keeping a very close eye on future sales and news of the Dr Who comic adaptation...
Already pre-ordered CDNM V2 and will be doing the same for the Diary Of River Song V3.

As far as pre-orders go with BF.You can Never say, Never!! Just look at recent announcements! You think you have finished for the year.and along comes another must-have!! Waiting on "Jekyll and Hyde" "Bloodline" of course. Due to a recent splurge "10DA vol 2"will have to wait a few weeks. Some maybe or maybe nots as well.such as "Sherlock"? "Galifrey"? "Cicero"?(Probably next year now) Some 2018 releases can wait til later in the year like "Unit 6/7" "Churchchill 2" "4th DA series 7a/7b" LOL! It just goes on and on

I haven't ordered UNIT 5 and Survivors 7 yet. Usually wait For story details to come out for those.

The only announced titles that I haven't pre-ordered are those which hold no interest for me - so Dark Shadows.
Otherwise I would have to say that once other titles are announced, I will pre-order anything that interests me - Blake's 7 being top of the list.

I have a limited budget for Big Finish too. I've pre-ordered The Tenth Doctor Adventures Volume Two LE, and The Ninth Doctor Chronicles from a different site.
I've yet to pre-order The Lives of Captain Jack, Classic Doctors, New Monsters Volume 2, The Eighth Doctor: The Time War and The Churchill Years Volume 2.

There's a lot I plan on getting but haven't pre-ordered yet. The Third Doctor Adventures, UNIT, Benny, Survivors, Counter-Measures, Hamlet, The Early Adventures and probably more. Plus, I'll definitely be getting Dark Shadows: Bloodline and the next J & L when their announced. And like others have said, I'm sure there will be upcoming announcements of more.

The past two Dairy of River Song box sets have been scheduled for January release dates, even though BF released the DL version at Christmas time. If volume 3 pops up for 2017 release, that will make the list for this year.
