The planet is the Sense-Sphere, home of the Sensorites, beings of immense intelligence and power.

The set comprises of a First Doctor figure, a Sensorite Action Figure with Probe Accessory plus an alternative Sensorite ELDER Action Figure with Probe Accessory.

Fearful of its immense power falling into the wrong hands, its sole guardian has scattered the machine’s operating keys across the planet. The TARDIS crew arrives to find the island under attack by the evil Voord. Marinus’ last line of defense — and its only hope — is the Conscience machine. The Doctor and his companions must undertake a deadly quest to recover the keys of Marinus…
The figures in this set include an Ian Chesterton action figure, accompanied by not one but two Voord Warriors with a dagger accessory.

This is the first in two History Daleks set, comprising of two highly detailed Daleks – the Silver Drone Dalek and Drone with Mutant Scoop Dalek.
The Day of the Daleks Set
The Third Doctor’s classic story, Day of the Daleks, first broadcast in 1972, is also getting the action figure treatment.

Danger is waiting for them there, including a trip two hundred years into the future without the TARDIS…
