The more of these brilliant trailers I see, the more I think Master! is going to be the release of the year for me.

Would be nice if this set went down well and we got to see more of Roberts Master. Be good to see him go up against some other incarnations of the Doctor just to see the contrast between them.

I think he is quite chilling in this and am glad he is getting to expand this version...dare I say it he even sounds nastier than Beevers and Jacobi 😂 he ain’t coming down my chimney in fact get him onto Dark Shadows range

I'm not sure, but I do know the trailers have been very popular, at least judging by the comments I have seen on social media. Hopefully that might mean we'll see similar things for other ranges.

Are there any other holidays between now and March? Maybe he'll chime in on World Wetlands Day?

I can smell the Terran beans roasting, like the burning embers of your failed aspirations. I taste honey. Sticky berries squeezed until they relented their sweetness. Release me and I will mix a pancake batter that will unhinge the limits of your wildest dreams. I'm so very hungry. So. Very. Hungry." Totally could happen.

Now that I think about it, I could see them releasing a New Years Eve promo featuring the Roberts Master. To help usher in next years Year of the Master.

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

Hm... not to dampen the enthusiasm here, but I'm really not feeling that performance. Eric Roberts definitely failed to impress me in the movie, but he worked well enough in Ravenous that I was optimistic about this upcoming set, but now... I dunno. I'm not pessimistic, but I am a bit less enthusiastic about it, if that makes sense. His is definitely a Master which will need to win me over.
Which, I suppose, is about as far from a unique problem as there is with this franchise.

Everyone has a preference I was not a fan of Simms Master or more to the point what they did to him in the show.Hated it tbhthey sort of rectified it towards the end but as TV Masters go he was a let down for me

I liked Simms at the time, but in hindsight I think it was a mistake not to keep Jacobi in the role, and after having seen other Masters since, I really can't go back and enjoy Simms' Master at all, which is... unfortunate, yeah, but at the same time I wouldn't trade my knowledge of Delgado, Beevers, Gatiss, Jacobi or Gomez for the world.
That said, I mean, I hope this set changes my mind on the character. Though being audio, a lot depends on the vocal performance.

I knew nothing about Classic Who when I first watched Simm in the role, and now that I do it has changed his Master for me during the RTD run, and not for the better. But I think his appearance in Capaldi's finale makes up for it somewhat. It kept the craziness of what we had seen, but more subdued and scheming. More of the old style Masters thrown in. (I don't think this set will change your mind about the character. He's pretty much in full crazy mode in this.)

Forbidden Planet have released the first ever Eric Roberts' Master t-shirts. Maybe some want one to wear while having a listen to the boxset. Personally, I'm boycotting them though as they can't spell "Drezzzzz" right! (also...they're not very good)

After making that post, I had to look it up again. It still makes me laugh. Roberts comes down those stairs and poses like he's Scarlett in Gone With The Wind. Absolutely bonkers. I'm actually looking forward to this set more now after Masterful which was EASILY Eric's best portrayal on audio. {Spoiler}
Maybe because he kinda played a more imp-ish wind up merchant Master who delighted in tormenting Beevers.
