Yesteryear Feature – Dapol
Between 1987 and 2001 Dapol held the licenses for making Doctor Who products. They produced a wide range of Doctor Who toys, many of which are now considered highly collectable.

December 12th, 2010 - 9:57amAbout 15 ago, I bought a second-hand compilation “set” that contained a gray-coat 7th Doctor (no umbrella), pink-shirt Mel, green K-9, and a TARDIS console. I did custom repaints of the latter two but did a terrible job, as it was my first time to apply paint to plastic. I despised green K-9 (I mean, seriously, green??), but the silver paint I applied peeled off of smooth plastic – and I never bothered to correct it. Now, I wish I had not altered the TARDIS console, but I don’t think the paint will come off (it wasn’t water based). Oh…

June 27th, 2010 - 10:14amI had an Uncke who was in the military and he was stationed in England and he he was always sending huge boxes filled with theses toys. All my other mates were obsessing over Star Wars and I had my massive Doctor WHo collection. Which I took very good care of over the years and still have them all in pretty much the same condition as when I first opened them By today’s toy standards, they aren’t the most accurate and lack a certain degree of detail. But they are the prize of my collection as I add more of the newer toys to it. I wish my Uncl

March 13th, 2010 - 4:54ameven though there is little detail on them and they weren’t made fantastically, they are really good and have a certain charm to them. I am really fond of them and i only wish Character would release some more classic monsters and some companions.
