Should The Dr Who Figurine Collection Include “Vehicles”?

Should The Doctor Who Figurine Collection Include Vehicles?

The official facebook page is now live.

With the imminent arrival of the Doctor Who figurine collection many people have asked about the viability of a Doctor Who “vehicles”.

There are probably not enough to warrant a collection on its own so would you like any included here.

They obviously would not be in scale with the figures or probably with each other but would the likes of Bessie and the Whomobile appeal as part of the line -up?

Some Items that spring to mind are…

  • The Tardis
  • Bessie
  • The Whomobile
  • Jagaroth spaceship
  • Slitheen Spaceship
  • Judoon Ship


A brand new fortnightly collection from Eaglemoss Publications

    I,d like them to do spaceships new and classic. have been watching full circle and warriors gate again and think they should do a starliner and rorviks ship etc..maybe put a smaller ship or something in with a classic figure.

    i think they should make a swip and swap tardis where it is all the tardis’s in one and you just change small parts to make it look like other tardis’s

      For the figurine collection? No chance. These are all sculpted fixed figurines, there won’t be any swappable parts and by the time you’d made the parts for another TARDIS you might as well pay for another TARDIS.

      We haven’t already had the classic one. Are you thinking of the 5” range because this is entirely different?

      we had two classic ones

      the bare minimum of detail AND you couldn’t put anyone inside 😛

      No we have not, we have had no vehicles, we’ve had five figures and that’s it.

      We have had vehicles in the 5” range, but this is NOT the 5” range, this is an entirely separate collection which does not have any vehicles in it (yet).

    Hi there so what about specials anyone know anything or have any suggestions
    I think specials should be devoted to the bigger characters like other people have said and maybe even vehicles
    What do you think ?

      Going by other collections it will be bigger characters (and possibly the occasional double pack).

    • The Professor

      August 9th, 2013 - 8:46am

      Could be creatures like the Beast, the Atraxi, even a Chronovore!

      They did a questionnaire with the test run asking about what sort of figures people would be interested in for specials. The following were given (these might not happen):

      Slitheen
      The Beast
      Giant Robot (that’s K-1)
      The TARDIS
      The Face of Boe
      Sarah Jane Smith and K-9

      By the looks of things you can see a couple of different things that could happen. You’ve got the larger characters who could be done in scale, far bigger characters that would need to be out of scale, twin packs and also a vehicle interestingly enough. So a fairly big selection.

      I think it was said before the collection was released there will be no vehicles at all in the collection.
