Character and the BBC Studios are proud to announce to fans and collectors that that the Fifteenth Doctor and Ruby Sunday action figures will join the ranks of their other incarnations, companions and foes on shelves everywhere soon. The announcement comes along with images of these latest ‘Vortex Edition’ characters.
Kathryn Ludlam, Character Options, brand manager, commented: “Since their first appearance at London Toy Fair, we have been inundated with requests about the release of the Fifteenth Doctor and Ruby Sunday figures. We are delighted to confirm that the figures will be available in two formats; an exclusive bundle pack from Character-Online and as individual packs with alternative decoration at mass retail, both launching later in the year.”
Vortex Edition 5.5” Collector figures bundle pack – available at Character-Online
These Gen 3 figures feature a higher specification decoration for extra detail and features include internal pivots on the neck and ankles, ball jointed waist and shoulders as well as internal pins on the arms and legs.
In this exclusive online version of these figures, there is the Fifteenth Doctor as played, by Ncuti Gatwa in his tan coat with orange striped shirt blue trousers and red and black trainers. The Doctor’s accessories include the blue Sonic Screwdriver, landmine from the episode, ‘Boom’ and ubiquitous Psychic Paper. Meanwhile the Ruby Sunday figure, as played by Millie Gibson, is presented as she looked in her debut story dressed in red jumper, tartan skorts as well as her black bomber jacket, and comes with her mobile phone, and shoulder bag accessories.
This online exclusive set features specially designed packaging to allow the figures to be opened and played with or repacked for display. Each figure is individually boxed, and then beautifully sleeved together as a single purchase. A sturdy transit box is used to protect this unique set.
Mass Retail Single Packs
A mass retail version will be available shortly afterwards in fused blister carded packs; with the Fifteenth Doctor’s shirt in teal, ocean green trousers and tan shoes whilst Ruby Sunday is dressed in a denim jacket, blue skorts and cream jumper.
The online exclusive set will go on sale on www.character-online.co.uk on 17th October 2024 and costs £39.99

October 23rd, 2024 - 9:56pmI ordered on the 17th, at 10 am. I just received the email that my figures have left the UK, for my USA home, via Royal mail. Looking forward to the new improvements in articulation. Hope we get more new figures , in this new style. I would love new Doctor and companion figures. Both classic and modern.
