Six new Doctor Who figurine sets coming soon!
Character Options has announced six upcoming sets of Doctor Who products, going on sale from June 2020.
These action figures will be available from B&M stores in the UK from June 2020, and from Amazon and the BBC Shop in the US.
Friends and Foes of the Thirteenth Doctor set
These are the first figures of the Thirteenth Doctor’s friends Yasmin Khan, as seen in Arachnids in the UK, and Ryan Sinclair as seen in the story Rosa. The set also features a Judoon Trooper, one of the ruthless intergalactic security enforcers seen in the story Fugitive of the Judoon.
Second Doctor and TARDIS Set
This Second Doctor and TARDIS has detailing from the last episode of 1969’s ten-part epic The War Games, the final story of Season Six. The set comprises the Second Doctor with ripped trouser knee details and bedraggled appearance. The TARDIS comes in dark blue with iconic Second Doctor square top lamp, standard opening doors, ‘POLICE BOX’ signage and the newer low-profile base.
The Daleks Collector Set
This twin Dalek set features the Daleks as seen fully in The Daleks, the second story of the very first season of Doctor Who in 1963. When seen in the early days of black and white television these Daleks were utterly alien in look and virtually identical in their livery of silver, mid grey and blue hemispheres. To identify each prop the casings had parallel black lines etched on, numbering them one to four. This has been replicated as accurately as possible in this new set. Inside is also specially created inserts as part of the heritage Doctor Who brand packaging.
The Dalek Invasion of Earth Collector Set
This set features the Daleks as seen in the story, The Dalek Invasion of Earth, from 1964. These revised Daleks were taller and more imposing with deep bases and revised colour schemes. This stunning new set represents a silver eyed ‘Drone’ Dalek, the black ‘Saucer Command’ Dale and includes specially created inserts as part of the heritage Doctor Who brand packaging.
Companions of the Fourth Doctor
This set features a new figure of Sarah Jane Smith and two figures of the Time Lady Romana. This set includes Sarah Jane Smith as seen in 1975’s Genesis of the Daleks and Revenge of the Cybermen, and Romana as seen in 1978’s The Pirate Planet and 1979’s Destiny of the Daleks.
1971 U.N.I.T The Claws of Axos Set
The Claws of Axos Set brings together the Third Doctor’s core U.N.I.T team of Brigadier Lethbridge Stuart, Captain Mike Yates and Sergeant John Benton. This set based on the Season 8 1971 story has the Brigadier wearing his less formal uniform with U.N.I.T beret, and Benton and Yates sporting their combat fatigues and webbing.
Al Dewar, Character Options’ Creative Director, said:
“This will be the first time in almost a decade where there will be parallel launches of the same product in the UK and the USA. Hopefully this new wave of toys will contain a few surprises for everyone. As always, the Character team has tried very hard to bring something new to delight, and hopefully exceed the expectations of fans and collectors alike. This time we are bringing even more to the table with six new products!”
These action figures will be available from B&M stores in the UK from June 2020, and from Amazon and the BBC Shop in the US.
