Not as bad as I feared, I'd heard whispers of the character autograph cards, at least they aren't randomly packed.

As it happened I just started a sub as I missed two issues, and opted for all extras. There's a folder on the way as well.

So are the autograph cards actually signed by the actors as the charcters? Seems a bit odd but quite quirky I'll definatly be getting this set, I hope the new Infinate card is a standalone to the set and unnumbered, its annoying having a gap in the collection

It looks printed from the image on the link you gave. Same shade of gold.

Yes it was annoying having a gap.

I'm on subscription for this set, sad I know This morning the postman brough me Issue 10 of the magazine along with the final 'subscription only' free gift of a Monster Invasion Back Pack and another pack of cards.

In addition, there were two letters with news about what comes next. Issue 11 of the magazine will feature a special edition Doctor autograph card which will only be available with that issue of the magazine. Judging by the info on the back page of Issue 10, this card will be included with every copy not just subscription issues. This card will be part of the new Doctor Who Monster Invasion Extreme card collection. This features 180 new cards including six new Super Rare 3-D cards and a scary new Infinite card. Extreme cards will be available in shops from 28th September.

The second letter was to announce the forthcoming release of a collector tin for the new Extreme set. This will be like the previous tin but with a picture of the Silence on the lid. It will contain five of the new Extreme packs along with a special limited edition Amy Pond autograph card signed by Karen Gillan. It also states that the tin and autograph card will only be available to subscribers, so don't expect to see them popping up in the shops. They are also supposed to be in very limited supply. Subscribers will be getting Issue 11, Issue 12 and their tin (if they ticked the box to get it automatically) in about five weeks time. That might give me time to find cards 56 and 100 from the first set (I've given up on the Infinite 90 card) to complete my initial collection

One size does NOT fit all

Thanks for the info Qexit, it's a shame about the tin being subscriber only, i'm a big fan of the cards but not keen on the actual mag so can't justify a full subscription just for that, i'll have to hope they turn up elsewhere for a reasonable price.
Looking forward to the new set though

There appears to be a new continuation set - Ultimate. I don't see any boxes for sale: are these going to be magazine only?

According to the NSU forum they will be magazine only.
