The Foxglove Cylinders, like His Close Companions, is just a bit of an odd War Master story. For one thing, the Master doesn't actively do anything Master-ish. It's extremely unclear what his goal is, what he's done in the past, and why he's even interested in a wax cylinder that presumably contains information he could find in his Tardis. Plus, it's just sorta unclear in the story itself what even was going on; I still don't fully understand the last five minutes. The premise here is decent, but in my view this is just a much worse version of The Life and Loves of Mr. Alexander Bennett. This isn't a terrible story, but it's an odd script for this range.


It’s ummm weak imo I really fine war master sets very mixed

FIRST IMPRESSIONS: “THE FOXGLOVE CYLINDERS”

The second story of the Future Phantoms set is very similar in style and atmosphere to the first one. It’s talky, slow, and lacks agency or tension despite solid performances and agreeable worldbuilding.
