Doctor Who follows the adventures of the last Time Lord from the planet Gallifrey who simply goes by the name “The Doctor”. At the end of the 2013 season, The Doctor regenerated into his new form and new personality, and is portrayed by legendary Scottish actor Peter Capaldi.
This new incarnation, the Twelfth Doctor, is a spiky, brusque, pragmatic, yet funny, passionate and fearless character who travels with his companion, Clara Oswald. His adventures with (and without) Clara in the 2014 season lead him to make tough and ruthless decisions that make him question his character and the value of his travels.
This all new 5 inch tall figure showcases the new look The Doctor takes on after the regeneration, featuring his now signature dark blue Crombie-style coat with red lining, dark blue trousers, a long collared white shirt buttoned to the top with no tie, and brogue boots. He also comes with his trusty sonic screwdriver.

AlexanderOP
September 12th, 2015 - 8:44pmI guess my one complaint is that the red lining doesn’t go all the way to the bottom of the coat like it should do, that and the likeness.

September 12th, 2015 - 7:57pmThis had crossed my mind as well!
ASTER
September 12th, 2015 - 8:45pmI tried – it needs to be cut down down the sides to work.
the astronaut of death
September 12th, 2015 - 7:04pmLooks much better with the 12th doctor head from time of the doctor set.
An Earthly Child
September 12th, 2015 - 6:51pmFirst post on here so, first of all, hello to everyone.
I received mine today after getting a dispatch email on Thursday. Like others have said, I too think the figure is better in the hand than how it was presented in the promo picture. Although I don’t think it’s the best offering from Character Options as far as likeness to the actor is concerned. Maybe some better paint apps. would help it? Not sure.
Anyway I found it easy to remove the head and replace it with the “regenerated” TOTD one as I think it has a better resemblance to Capaldi as The Doctor, even if it does have that smirk ;-/
All in all, I’m happy enough with it considering what it is (a £15 toy) and we do finally get a 5″ scale Doctor number 12 which I never thought would hapoen so “YAY!”
Hope anyone who’s still waiting gets theirs soon enough, cheers!
EndlessTimelord
September 12th, 2015 - 6:58pmCan you send in pictures of the head? 🙂
SomeFunnyDrWhoReference
September 13th, 2015 - 2:56pmOoo I’ve got a box of Capaldi heads… I’ll have to try this… (Not sinister, just bought three packs)
wholords2
September 12th, 2015 - 5:27pmFew things to note
-it’s taller than the TOTD matt smith figure
-the ring has the green dot in the middle
-it has the same articulation as the TOTD 11th Doctor but with rotating shoes
-the belt is apart of the shirt mould
-the red lining is painted on, rather than the navy being painted
-the actual shirt is A seperate piece from the torso, just like the TOTD 11th doc but it’s glued on
-there’s a lot more detail in the face including wrinkles in the corners of the eyes
If anyone wants any pics or has any questions please ask
EndlessTimelord
September 12th, 2015 - 6:37pmUT did say on Facebook that they would MAYBE make one with swappable torsos (maybe a last cigure for Capaldi?) howfar is the red lining? (It looks like it doesn’t go up to the edge..
An Earthly Child
September 12th, 2015 - 7:20pmEndlessTimelord: I’ve no camera on hand at the minute, sorry. Can anyone else snap a picture with the TOTD head and post?

September 12th, 2015 - 3:43pmDoes anyone know what the other variant are going to be?????
STRAXTHEDRESTROTER
September 12th, 2015 - 3:44pmI hope its the hooded version from last Christmas or the red velvet coat from series 9 🙂
booboo
September 12th, 2015 - 3:47pmPurple and Black shirts were seen
The Living Shadow
September 12th, 2015 - 4:45pmBlack shirt?
Anonymous
September 12th, 2015 - 5:10pmThe variants include white shirt, polka dot shirt, black shirt, and purple shirt.
So far the Christmas costume is not going to be sold anytime soon and no costume from series 9 will be made until series 9 has ended
wholords2
September 12th, 2015 - 5:28pmThe black shirt one is from time heist
The Living Shadow
September 12th, 2015 - 5:37pmI thought his shirt was dark blue in time heist?
wholords2
September 12th, 2015 - 9:12pmIt’s very very dark though, it looks more black than blue really,
Also it’s probably cheaper to use black coloured plastic for the shirt, rather than painting it dark blue
STRAXTHEDESTROYER
September 13th, 2015 - 12:23amThanks for the info guys 🙂 if character was really sneaky they could release the twelfth doctor in orange spacesuit . I know its a 3.5 figure but they already have the scuplts for 5 inch

September 12th, 2015 - 3:08pmprobably Monday, second class can take 2-5 (working) days

September 12th, 2015 - 3:23pmThanks that’s a big help
The Foretold
September 12th, 2015 - 2:51pmI got mine today. Really pleased with it and I think the red lining is pretty cool. The flaps of the coat are quite malleable so you can have him displayed like he is in the promotional photos if you so wish to. Personally, I think the likeness is rather a good one of Peter Capaldi, but it isn’t the best likeness of his portrayal of The Doctor. I know that sounds rather strange, but that’s just my view!
Hopefully we get one with his more definitive hoody and jumper clothing in the future with a better headsculpt and longer hair.

September 12th, 2015 - 1:53pmWhat you using for waist coat?
ASTER
September 12th, 2015 - 2:06pmI’ve just made the cardigan out of paper and coloured it in black with a permanent marker – cut it out with scissors and stuck it on. Works well and really easy to make

Nathan
September 12th, 2015 - 1:13pmGot mine in the post. Good looking figure although likeness isn’t the best. Love the sonic screwdriver: it’s closed and is a much bigger size in comparison to the others.
Trenzalore
September 12th, 2015 - 1:11pmThough it does seem to look slightly better in hand, I’m still not quite sold on it.
The Living Shadow
September 12th, 2015 - 1:19pmI feel the same.
Greg
September 12th, 2015 - 1:44pmAgreed
Richard
September 12th, 2015 - 1:05pmI got my Despatch email on the Thursday, does anyone know when it’ll arrive, or does it just depend
booboo
September 12th, 2015 - 1:08pmthink it depends on royal mail delivey times in certain areas, i assume they are sent 2nd class so 2-5 days, we paid paypal so they had the money up front and ordered straight away but we dont have ours today
Richard
September 12th, 2015 - 1:10pmThanks!
Greg
September 12th, 2015 - 1:05pmMine just arrived! I have to admit, it does look a lot better “in-hand”.
However, the likeness still isn’t great (in my opinion).
I don’t think I’ll pre-order the polkadot variant as the dots look overly large. I may consider the burgundy version though!
Overall, I’d say it’s definitely worth having as a 5inch figure, but the likeness and lack of waistcoat let it down!
wholords2
September 12th, 2015 - 1:03pmWhoever said its not compatible with the TOTD set was wrong!
It takes a bit of a pull but the TOTD head does fit, even though it looks a bit too small
Stark42
September 12th, 2015 - 12:52pmwell, it certainly looks better in the none promo pictures, is this out in stores yet??

September 12th, 2015 - 11:52amHave to admit this looks really good and cant wait to recive it even though aswell I will eventually preorder the other one but shame why the 3.75s are still not out yet
