For anyone who's not heard Gallifrey VI, Sylvester does not appear in any capacity. (Colin appears as Maxil and two alternative Doctors in previous Gallifrey sets though).
I think the blurb got confused. In the same way that the Dark Eyes figure is listed as coming from "The Time War".

Let’s be honest, it’s rarer for a Big Finish news piece to be accurate than inaccurate!

The photos shared by Big Finish might give an indication of the variants they’re getting. The Daleks are all cleaner in their images, compared to the video, where they’re beautifully weathered. I do love a weathered Dalek!

Yeah, it’s a clumsy description. The Dalek is from Gallifrey VI, but the Seventh Doctor is from Dalek Among Us, which we were originally told the set is based from.

It looks like a very condensed version of the sleeve notes which were written, brought into one short sentence.

I can confirm that the 'sleeve notes' about each Dalek on the box are accurate.
I can say that with confidence - I wrote them!

Good old Andydrewz - thankfully proved that I was not alone in thinking of the same potential for Audio only Character options tie-ins....

The variants in the Big Finish set are:
Seven: darker scarf and waistcoat for the Doctor and a different eye colour for the Dalek
Eight: minor paint variants to the Dalek and the Doctor has black boots
War: Dalek has silver mid-section slats, no change to the Doctor

Picked up the War Doctor set today and an Eighth Doctor one for tuigirl. They’re great little sets, the weathering on the Scientist Dalek is especially good, and lack of scarf aside, this is the best War Doctor figure yet. The Eighth Doctor is more Doom Coalition than Dark Eyes, but I prefer that actually. The highlight of these releases is the DWM-esque Shada TARDIS and Harry Sullivan. I love them! |

I am really looking forward to this, thank you for helping out. I watched some videos on YouTube on the figures and they look as if they are just perfect for the BF fan.  Great you have so much enthusiasm to share. |

I've been really tempted to get these, purely on the Big Finish connection, but having just bought the BCS 12" 8th Doctor I'm now really reluctant. But they do look cool  |

Right. My delivery has arrived! Thanks again to shallacatop. You are awesome! These figures are great and they found a loving home in my little nerdy corner.
The Doctor might feel a bit uncomfortable though because of that pesky Angel...

I'm a sucker for an 80's TARDIS and I love the Androzani one so much I got two! One to go on the display, the other to follow me around from room to room and to get plonked in different parts of the house! Old TARDIS, New Locations!
