There are quite a few of these that I'm really keen to listen to, especially ATA Girl and The Human Frontier. I'm really excited to see the variety here!

Also shouldn’t this get its own folder as it’s such a big Big Finish undertaking?

There really is something for everyone here. I'm already tempted by several of these. Hopefully we'll find out even more details soon.

GUYS, WE REALLY NEED TO SUPPORT THIS. NOT JUST HERE, BUT ON SOCIAL MEDIA. WE REALLY NEED TO GET OUT THERE AND PROMOTE THIS. THIS IS SOMETHING WE'VE ALL WANTED FROM BIG FINISH FOR AN INCREDIBLY LONG TIME, BUT NEVER THOUGHT COULD BE. (SERIOUSLY, I THOUGHT WE'D JUST GET CICERCO OR ANOTHER HORROR SERIES) BIG FINISH IS TAKING A BIG RISK HERE (EVEN WITH THE SUCCESS OF THE REVIVAL SERIES). We don't NEED to do anything of the sort. The new stuff sounds great but please don't tell us what we NEED to do, especially with CAPS LOCK ON!

I'm about 50/50 on first read-through of the synopses - with this much variety there will be something for everyone and while I'm sure the quality will be the usual BF high standard throughout, there are some which simply leap out at me as 100% definite buys. And take a good close look at the pricing everyone - there are phenomenal bargains on offer. In listed order I'm already certain to buy: ... From there you might as well reach just a little bit further and get the whole set (or at least that's what I told myself right before I threw the whole bundle in the cart) :-)

These all sound very, very interesting. The only problem is the price tag being just a bit high for my tastes, but when I get some cash to burn which may not be for a while as there are many Doctor Who things I want to catch up on before starting other ranges, or if these are put on discount individually (I cannot drop 100 at a time) I'll jump in $100 for almost 28 hours of new material is pretty inexpensive...particularly considering the MR is $25 a pop for two hours each.

33 hours!! 100 pounds completely unexpected!! (Actually, 25 for Cicero was expected.) I'm interested in most of them. (Except Blind Terror - I'm not really a fan of Gothic horror. Though I loved Dorian, so I could be convinced otherwise.) Some questions: What genre is Jeremiah Borne? I'm struggling to figure it out from the synopsis. Does "Crime Thriller" mean Broadchurch, Stranger Things et al? Because I find those shows too long at eight hours. And I think Big Finish has shown how perfect four is in their other ranges. As for the Human Frontier: the moment I saw "by Nick Briggs", I thought, "More on his plate; more to be delayed." If not this, then something else to accommodate this. Given there are no cast details, it probably hasn't been recorded yet.

Given there are no cast details, it probably hasn't been recorded yet. Jeremiah Borne reads to me kind of like Douglas Adams, Quirky maybe slightly adult Comedy?
Transference could be a drama with Cops with some kind of special abilities, or set in a society where something has made law different. 8 hours probably means 8 different "Cases".

Yeah it’s more of I can’t drop much more than $40 at once because I’m a student and the individual releases are all pretty high in price. Not saying you don’t get band for your buck, but they’re still a bit high.

Adding to Bourne, from the synopsis I would think that a steampunk theme would be in store.

Oh, I wish! I'd love to start on Survivors and The Omega Factor, but they're going to be waiting until the next lot of sales roll around, but Dalek Empire... I hadn't considered it yet, but now you mention it... It is brilliant. Do give it a try (now I've ruined your best made shopping plans ) The beauty of Omega Factor is there are only two series to pick up, with a third on the way. Survivors is currently sitting at 7 series with two more due this year. Dalek Empire, I'm not the biggest fan of.

As for the Human Frontier: the moment I saw "by Nick Briggs", I thought, "More on his plate; more to be delayed." If not this, then something else to accommodate this. Given there are no cast details, it probably hasn't been recorded yet. I think Nick Briggs has learnt from the second series of Charlotte Pollard. I don't think there is going to be a delay, especially with an original series.

Not to mention Jekyll and Hyde. I think 100 bucks is a absurd bargain for that amount of original and varied material. I agree with Michael, we should all be supporting Big Finish in this even if it is just one series.
