This figure is released today exclusively to the Experience shop, but will no doubt be available on places like Amazon and eBay before long. Its 5" tall and comes with a couple accessories. Personally I think it is a bit unfair that it is exclusive to the exhibition. Some people might want it but just can't get there. London isnt the most accessable of places for everyone who might want one.

Also a smidge unfair for people who have already been Merchandise for concerts is often also available online, either during or after the event/tour. Can't help feeling that the Experience website should have a shop component. Fine keep things labelled 'DW Experience' exclusive to the event, but more general stuff - get it out there.

I would agree. They need to invest in an online shop for those who have been or can't get there

Yeah, it's cool and all that, but I thought at one point there was going to be an online shop. The only thing I disliked about the exhibition shop was all though the shop when I was there they had 20%. And I bought a T Shirt there, which cost me £20, so minus £4, that's £16, but to do that you had to be able to access their wifi... I had both my iPod touch and my Blackberry and neither would let me connect to the wifi... I mean I did, but it wouldn't let me actually use the wifi even though I'd put the password for the day in! Annoying much!
Not all the stuff that's in the shop is only in the shop, but I haven't seen the T-|Shirts anywhere else, and yeah things like that ^ which a fair number of people will want shouldn't just be in the shop.
That still doesn't explain why they stopped the idea of the online shop, cause I thought it was supposed to be part of the gold package, some discount in the online shop?

As far as I know, plans for the online shop were scrapped because the actual shop was so popular, which would kind of mean they are kicking themselves a bit because if its so popular then taking it nationwide would mean they would rake it in

I couldn't access the wifi either which was annoying as they went on about the special features they had as you walked around or what not...
I was thinking that next time I'm in London (July probs) I'll buy a couple, maybe shove one on Ebay or something, I don't think it is fair to limit it to an actual shop! I want my online stuff!
Do we know when it is in the actual shop? I've got a friend going soon...

That shows a serious lack of logical thinking in my opinion.

According the DWE Twitter feed these have been limited to 2 per customer.

Do you know if you can go to the DWE just to go to the shop?
