Character Options has unveiled details of a brand new Limited Edition Doctor Who 5.5” scale action figure. Images of the Missy figure, first in a new range of scale Doctor Who Collector Series toys were revealed by Alasdair Dewar, Product Development Director, today via video on the Character Options’ website.

Missy, played by Michelle Gomez, is a villainous Time Lady who recently revealed herself as the Doctor’s arch enemy, the Master! Missy has been firmly established as a new fan favourite character, and as a collector’s figure, she is truly a must have.

The Missy Figure will be available in two variants; a purple outfitted version with hat from the series finale episodes; and alternatively in her ‘Heaven’ outfit, hatless with black jacket and manic grin.

The Missy figures each have 18 points of articulation and are highly detailed and decorated. Each figure head can also be swapped so that both heads can be incorporated with either outfit, and they both come with accessories.

The bespoke UK Collector Series packs are perfect for display and for the first time are re-sealable, so that the figures can be enjoyed in or out of packaging without losing their collectability.


Only 4,000 units of each of the two figures are available in exclusive UK packaging at www.character-online.co.uk for a price of £19.99 each (excluding P&P). Delivery will be made to customers by early November.

Al Dewar states: “Character Options has been designing, manufacturing and marketing Doctor Who toys since 2005, so as true fans of the brand we wanted to tell collectors the latest news in the most direct, if informal way, which is why I made the announcement in person on the website.

Missy is the first of a potential new line of highly sought after 5.5-inch action figures so we expect interest to be high and we are all very excited to share this with fans and collectors alike.

“Working with Michelle Gomez was great fun and she was the best subject we ever 3D scanned, patiently holding her facial expressions including her trademark Missy “sneer” for long periods of time. We know that many collectors have been eagerly waiting to see if Missy would at some point be included within our figure range, and at last, here she is.”

    Two black came yesterday instead of one of each so I sent one of the black ones back asking for a purple replacement but then a purple one came in the post today before I’d even sent the return back so this means they must have made an error and accidentally sent two black as opposed to replacing the purple one with the black by accident. Does this mean I’m going to get another purple one arrive in a couple of days

      Really surprised yesterday when Missy arrived, most unexpected!
      I ordered the purple version, this is a truly excellent figure!
      Loving the new packaging across the range and the bar has been raised.
      Simply cannot wait to see the 8th Doctor and I think future figures could move from strength to strength.

      If they ever release a Master Box set perhaps it could include;

      Roger Delgado re-issue (original was great)

      Geoffrey Beavers (Keeper of Traken) re-issue

      Anthony Ainley in Logopolis/TOATL famous common garb with his version of the tissue compression eliminator

      Eric Roberts (Time Lord Robes or Leather Jacket version perhaps with swappable heads one with snake eyes the other with shades) and snake accessory (unlikely due to rights issue apparently)

      Derek Jacobi – matt finish face repaint re-issue

      John Simms – With the black overcoat with red inner lining he wore over his suit as seen in the sound of drums and the last of the time lords…. and why not have a few more Toclafane

      Michelle Gomez – haven’t seen the black smiling figure in hand but confident it does not disappoint. Re-issues could feature straight face without hat or smiling face with hat???

      Interesting! Does it affect the figure when you display it (i.e. can it stand up okay?)

      October 29th, 2015 - 10:03pm

      I’ve managed to pose it so it stands by itself now. But I popped off the leg quickly and it seems the plug is bent so just put it back in as I don’t want to break it or anything

      October 29th, 2015 - 11:27pm

      I’d assume when people ordered doesn’t really matter to delivery times, i’d say it’s either location based or just quite random, or maybe depending on how good the postal service are in your area

    Do you receive a dispatch email, because I ordered mine on the 1st of this month and haven’t got one, I have never ordered from character online before so I’m not sure is I will even get a dispatch email, so I’m just wondereding, will I get a dispatch email

    I decided to just get the purple dress missy and it arrived earlier today. Overall I am very pleased with the figure. It has been painted very well and bears a great likeness to Michelle Gomez. One of my only gripes with it is that the teleport device is very loose in her hand but its a great figure.

      Yeah, I think the main reason people ordered the black dress variant is to fit in with their master collection but I have no other master figures (except Derek Jacobi) as I was too young to truly appreciate the classic series figures when they came out.
