The playsets are in scale with the Doctor Who 3.75-inch action figures so you can create your own adventures or simply display your collection.

There are two Time Zone playsets to collect.

Cold War; 1983 – In the cold waters of the Southern Arctic Ocean a Russian nuclear submarine is returning from patrol. As the ‘Cold War’ between the Americans and Russians drags on, tensions run high as the crew constantly run missile launch simulation drills.

Also on board is a high ranking Russian scientist with a rapidly thawing block of ice – a block of ice which contains a mysterious creature.

When the creature revives, breaks loose and rampages through the ship, the Submarine loses all power and starts to sink, plunging deeper with every passing second.

The TARDIS materialises on board and, with mere seconds to spare, the Doctor saves the submarine but leaves it stranded and crippled 700 metres down. But that is the least of his worries when the Doctor realises they are up against one of his oldest and coldest enemies.

Cold War Time Zone Playset includes 1 exclusive Ice Warrior ‘Creature’ figurine. One supplied. For ages 5 years and over.

    I hope the Weeping Angel set is still being released because it says there are two to collect and we’ve seen this and the dalek one.

      However, the set itself is my favourite, but I won’t get 3.75 figures till I see the Doctor figure itself.

      April 25th, 2013 - 7:12pm

      i Have a feeling Character may have had worked from early drawings and never had a chance to see the finished Cgi before going into production

      At the end of the day the BBC would have had to approve this

    April 25th, 2013 - 7:01pm

    So they reveal what the Ice Warrior creature looks like in full but in figure form, and not in the actual episode…

      Maybe because it squishes into the armour?

      Maybe some kind of compression field like slitheen? That figure’s body looks like a very thin slitheen

    That ice warrior look more like a model than a figure as it doesn’t have articulation. And the head looks different to the episode, different shape and less green!

    • booboo

      April 25th, 2013 - 6:00pm

      it may well be as it was CGi Character had to work from drawings, they may not have seen the end product before this was made, it takes months to put these together
