The first release is...
Invasion of the Dinosaurs and The Android Invasion in January.
Amazon.ca says the February release is The Sensorites, they're listing the Canada release date as Feb 14th. They are also listing the rumoured third Revisitations box set titles, The Tomb of the Cybermen, The Three Doctors and Robots of Death, as being released in March.
In April Doctor Who Magazine said the following would be released in 2012:
The Sensorites
The Reign of Terror
Planet of Giants
The Krotons
Death to the Daleks
Terror of the Zygons
The Android Invasion
The Face of Evil
Nightmare of Eden
Ace box set (Dragonfire and The Happiness Patrol)
The Greatest Show in the Galaxy
Though as ever, until something is officially announced, everything is subject to change.

despite what DWM, says I'd be very surprised if all the remaining Mccoy stories are released next year my money is on Greatest Show, being the very last release.
Here's to the future!

Good old Xoanon!
Who am I ?

Are we done for 2011 now? No more in November?
for pretty much that reason after all we're probably looking at 2013 before everything is released onto DVD, and that also being the 50th Anniversary year - The Greatest Sgow in the Galaxy, would seem a very fitting title to bring the DVD run to an end.
Have to agree with comments above - very excited about a lot of the confirmed and rumoured 2012 releases - also in regards to "Greatest Show.." was that not mooted for the once proposed "The End " BS so it would make sense to hold off till last I reckon.
Do you know that for sure ?

I've not read all of this months DWM, but apparently they have confirmed that Face of Evil, will be released next year.
That doesn't leave much left to dilute the glut of Pertwees and Hartnells. It's like a flashback to the dying days of the VHS range! (as we all knew it would be)
well with all the restoration work that was needed for a lot of Jon Pertwee's stories I suppose it was inevitable that a good percentage of the remaining stories to be released would be his. TBH, I think now because we're so near the end of the DVD range i'm not really that bothered what we get next year.
Speaking of Reeltime, it would be nice if the BBC would authorise them to release Ian Levine's recut version of Downtime with the new Sylvester McCoy footage.
that is one thing we should be truely grateful for that 2/Entertain, has had a policy of pre-recording a lot of stuff way in advance of a release (in some cases several years) .
I'm surprised they didn't do more in clusters. They did Terror of the Autons, Green Death and Carnival of Monsters all together to accommodate Kay Manning coming over from Oz. Terror of the Autons was therefore sitting there waiting for many years.
I would have loved to have had Jon Pertwee doing the DVD's had they been released prior to 1996 of course.
In an interview with Talking Who the Doctor Who talk show Dan Hall he said Greatest Show in the Galaxy will be in 5.1 audio.

2|Entertain have revealed plans for the DVD release of the incomplete Fourth Doctor adventure Shada, which would have been the finale to the seventeenth season back in 1980; commenting on Twitter via ClassicDW:
Plans are to release the SHADA fragments together with MORE THAN THIRTY YEARS in a box filled with other content goodies! Likely 2012.
Development for this DVD includes the usual making-of feature (as illustrated), with Chris Chapman reporting: "To further whet your appetites, our Shada doco is called Death Comes to Time and was shot (mostly) on location in Cambridge!"
The Restoration Team have also continued to reveal tantalising glimpses of DVD development via Twitter; news snippets include:
•The Sensorites will contain a feature entitles Looking for Peter, a "Who Do You Think You Are?" style documentary on the writer of the story, Peter R. Newman.
•The Nicholas Courtney documentary will be presented by Michael McManus, friend and co-writer for the actor's auto-biography Still Getting Away With It.
•Terror of the Zygons is not expected to be released during 2012.
