Doctor Who 11th Doctor Purple Jacket 5.5″ Figure
Geronimo! The eleventh incarnation of the legendary Time Lord the Doctor was a man whose youthful appearance and quirky enthusiasm was often at odds with his world weary temperament. Easily bored, the Eleventh Doctor liked nothing more than travelling with his companions Amy Pond and Rory Williams in search of thrills and new adventures.
It was at times that his friends were in danger that the Eleventh Doctor would display his often frightening temper and brooding rage but he would always return eventually to his friendly ways.
Part of the Collector Series of Doctor Who action figures and exclusive to Toys R Us! Collect them all!
Includes a sonic screwdriver accessory.

February 17th, 2017 - 12:37pmAs with the TOTD set I wish the waistcoat was darker as from memory this style of waistcoat was his velvety black looking one, the grey was a different style as seen in JTTCOTT. Still like the purple coat look overall and so wish this had been 11’s look from the get go.

March 12th, 2016 - 5:57pmI finally got this guy from from my ‘local’ toys r us today (Infact the last one there) and I’m very happy, having not gotten the the Time of the Doctor set, this figure is brand new to me, but it’s great figure…
The details are very nice and there isn’t a single fault with the articulation. The head is easily removable, however unlike the Time set, the jacket and waistcoat are glued (Although they’re easy to peal of after putting in hot water, incase you want to customise). I can’t say whether this devalues the Time of the Doctor set, but I can’t imagine it would as now you can display pre and post regenerated Doctors from the episode together.
Overall, I think it’s a solid 8/10 figure. Doesn’t get the full 10 as it essentially is just a rerelease though, and a bit of a downgrade. But nonetheless a good way to get a great figure cheaper, if you’re not too bothered about the accessories in the Time set!

January 14th, 2016 - 6:25amI think they’ve really missed an opportunity for a good variant here without the need for new sculpting.
By repainting the waistcoat a brighter grey, shirt a lighter blue/grey and the bow tie burgundy with white dots I made a Hide variant.
Now if you repainted the non-bow tie waistcoat in the same colours from the TOTD set then you could have had a great hide variant set with basically no extra sculpting needed just a change in colour!
It’s a real shame they didn’t do this I think as it would have been a great seller as a different variant!

January 14th, 2016 - 8:20amWell, you’re absolutely right. At least it’s cheap enough now that u can attempt to customize it. Here in the USA, the TOTD set is about the same price as this figure so u might as well by that since u get the extra 12th doctor head and handles. It’s only $23.50.
Hey CaptainJimipie, do you have a video up of you doing this repaint variant? If so, you should put a link to it.
I did exactly what u said and my figure looks great.

mick
November 9th, 2015 - 4:37pmthis came today from toys r us and I think them black stickers covering the underground toys logo on the box really spoils it.

November 6th, 2015 - 9:43pmAny reason why everything has been reposted? If everything is not in stock yet?
booboo
November 6th, 2015 - 9:51pmnothing has been reposted just bought to the front
news of theses popular items is ongoing and not everyone visits every day

Nathan
November 6th, 2015 - 12:12pmIs the jacket glued down and is the head removable?

November 5th, 2015 - 9:58pmHow long would these most likely stay in stock?

November 5th, 2015 - 11:53pmI haven’t a clue but they seem to be staying in which is surprising, are you looking to buy them? but you can’t buy them at the moment or something?

November 4th, 2015 - 3:33pmtypical already have a toys r us order that I placed on sunday waiting to be dispatched. now im having to pay postage to get this figure as I cant add it to my order.
Anonymous
November 4th, 2015 - 5:48pmYou could wait and get the 8th Doctor’s figure, that’s if you want that figure. That’s what i’ll be doing.
mick
November 4th, 2015 - 5:59pmalready have it on order from forbidden planet and been charged the postage when they sent the clara figure to me.

November 4th, 2015 - 7:34pmThat’s a shame and annoying, I didn’t even know they actually sold that figure in the until the other day. I’m wanting to get this figure and 8th, I just wish the 8th Doctor would come in stock. You could get the Flight Control Tardis with the figure. Then you would end up getting the postage free.

LastOfTheSonics
October 31st, 2015 - 4:18pmIt’s rumoured the reason why this and the Amy Pond figure got this style packaging is because they’re the only two figures that actually got changed. Amy got more apparent tights, and the Doctor’s waistcoat is apparently now glued down.
Dave
October 31st, 2015 - 4:36pmTo be honest i did not buy Rose and K9 not because I already have her but because the packaging is not reusable (and the black stickers look horrible)
If you are going to do a collectors series at least keep the packaging uniform
I would have done all the packaging like Missy’s but with a different motif related to the figure possibly
even small details like a spoon with the purple Doctor would have made a world of difference
I’m really pleased to see these coming out but cant help felling its a bit half hearted
anon
November 4th, 2015 - 11:53amI guess it would have cost money to do character-related motifs for each figure.
STAXTHEDRESTROYER
October 29th, 2015 - 5:32pmis that the same head sculpt as the time of the dr set??
The Silent Silent
October 29th, 2015 - 7:07pmYes, I think so.
STRAXTHEDESTROYER
October 30th, 2015 - 10:47amIs it me or does the body seem very large compared to his head
The Silent Silent
October 30th, 2015 - 11:06amIt looks fine in Hand.

October 29th, 2015 - 3:22pmWonder if the waistcoat will be removable.

October 30th, 2015 - 6:43pmIt would be too much trouble for Character to make a figure from scratch.
The Living Shadow
October 28th, 2015 - 11:47pmHe looks a little lonely without any of his previous accessories (except for Sonic SD), but with around £15 cut off the price, they won’t be missed too much!
James
October 28th, 2015 - 9:38pmI’ll probably end up picking this guy up so I can display my TOTD set as regenerated Capaldi.
RORY DOCTOR RIVER POND
October 28th, 2015 - 4:20pmThis is the only one I would consider getting…. but at 14.99?…. I think I’d rather get Clara
DannyTheNerd
October 28th, 2015 - 4:36pm£15 is good. It used to be £30! And it only came with a few heads
Neil
October 28th, 2015 - 12:59pmDoes anyone know what determines whether ‘classic’ or ‘new series’ logo is used in the new 5′ figures box style packaging? Missy and 8th Doctor have new series logos while the 12th Doctor and Clara have classic logos. I actually like the fact they’re using both but just wondered if there is some logic to it that I’m missing.
Jdog
October 28th, 2015 - 1:17pmI think using the current logo indicates something particularly special. The Missy figures being directly sold off Character Online matches how that website sells mainstream items that use the current logo, and the press release talked up the Eighth Doctor figure quite a bit so perhaps it’s meant to indicate a highlight of the line.
booboo
October 28th, 2015 - 1:21pmshould really be classic up to the 12th Doctor
“New series” is classed as the current Doctor
but then its been all over the place anyway so i really dont know

October 29th, 2015 - 7:52amDoes anyone even know

October 29th, 2015 - 7:55amwell the style guides are given out by the BBC and everything has to be approved by them so they must
