Well I was about 85% sure I was going to pick up 9, but after the reveal that it comes with the additional Tennant head sculpt, I'm 100% in.

The head sculpt is so so but the costume is magical. Instant pre order when it's up.
Off topic but does anybody know if Big Chief have any intention of making Missy?

BCS has mentioned a number of figures in the works, but Missy is not currently one of them. I would find myself a bit disappointed to see a Missy figure made before a Classic version of The Master.

For now, the only confirmed figures we have are the 9th Doctor, Series 4 10th Doctor, Series 8 12th Doctor, and the Con-X Series 9 12th Doctor. I'll also include the 10th Doctor in Pajamas Build-A-Figure incentive, although we are not being provided with a body.
This past spring, Mark Andrews stated in an interview with DWAFO that "Captain Jack is definitely on our to do list and fans will see him added to the ranks at some point next year." He also said that Sarah Jane had been considered but was put on the back burner due to the passing of Elizabeth Sladen. He also noted that Cybermen and Daleks come up in regular discussions, but will only be produced if they can do them justice.

The sculpt has been tweaked up a bit:
It looks good although comparing it to the photo a few pages back there's is still something not quite right I can't quite put my finger on it, head seems to long? or to fat? not sure as I said, get a better idea when it's painted up.
NO need to look a few pages back. The second photo I posted is the new sculpt on top and the old sculpt on bottom.

It's a nice improvement. We'll just have to wait for the final pictures.
I think the detail on the sculpt is awesome, but a few changes could be done to make it look more like Eccleston.
I believe this was the reference they were going for.
Just from what I see, the part on the forehead above the point of the brows needs to be a bit fuller, cheeks need to be a bit fuller, the right (left in picture) middle brow crease needs to come in more before going up, chin width reduced and right side smile crease (left in picture) needs to be corrected.
I'll be getting the figure either way, but will be happier if they make the changes.
Sorry, I meant this (left hand) photo.
Looking better! They just need to put back the dip in his temples and the width to the upper part of the skull.
They reduced the chin a bit too much so that should have a bit more width. Jaw seems wide, but it could just be that there needs to be a bit more of a dip between the chin and jaw.
Loving the skin textures a lot more on this one.
By the way, Kudos to BC for making arrangements for a reworked head sculpt. They are really stepping up for us fans and collectors, so they'll definitely continue to have my support.

Yeah, he needs that dip at the temples back. Looks pretty good other than that. Oh, and the jaw is a tiny bit wide from the looks of it

Big improvement, I agree about the temples though.
BC almost has a homerun with this sculpt, just a few tweaks here and there and it will be amazing. The base sculpt is already great, just some minor touch ups.
Here's a sample of what I think should be adjusted:
I widened the top skull section, added the temple dents, enlarged the width of the ears, adjusted the angle of the raised line on the right side of the forehead, widened the chin, and angled the jaw slightly, nudged the cheek indent in slightly, widened the widened the cupid's bow on the lips, squared off the bottom lip and fixed the angle of the right side smile line, fixed two of the forehead creases (left in picture).
I didn't narrow the whole face down, just increased the height of the top of the head a bit.

Still not perfect, but looks a heckuva lot better I think. And isn't quite as obviously off as it was before.
Although for me what sticks out most (in Vash's comparison above) is that the mouth is just a bit too big.
It's hard to see all the changes I made with the side by side comparison, so here's a little gif:
