Figurine Collection Magazine Special 31 Skaak on Horseback (Holding Image)

Doctor Who Skaak on Horseback

Riding on his high horse, it’s Doctor Who’s Commander Skaak! The Sontoran Commander, who made his villainous appearance with the Thirteenth Doctor in ‘War of the Sontorans’, joins the Doctor Who Figurine Collection!

Commander Skaak led the Sontaran forces during the time invasion in their conflict with the British Army in Sevastopol, in the Crimean War in 1855. He chose this time-period partly because he wanted to ride a horse! The figurine depicts the helmeted Skaak on horseback, as seen in the 2021 episode, ‘War of the Sontarans’, part of the ‘Flux’ story arc.

Product features:

  • Special Edition
  • Material: Hand-painted Resin ensure the highest level of detail
  • Height: 13cm
  • Scale 1:21 to go with the rest of your collection

Also included is a 20-page booklet which goes behind the scenes and reveals what it was like for Skaak actor Jonathan Watson to ride a horse in full costume, plus we discover that this was not the first time that the horse had appeared in Doctor Who! Discover more collection quality figurines in our full Doctor Who Figurine Collection.

    And yet snother 4 unreleased figures turn up on Scificollector.
    Styke, 13th Doc as Weeping Angel, Execution Dalek and an original Thal.
    That makes at least 12 since the demise of Eaglemoss. Plus the specials. Can there possibly be any more?

      It’s up on the Sci-fi collectors page now, alongside several others.
      Karvanista, Movellan, Swsrm, Bellal, Black Guardian, Vinder, Ood Elder, Azure. There’s also the Death to the Daleks Mega coming up.
      Over on the Master Replicas site, they have had a few of the mwgas there for only £40! Currently Davros is still in stock at that price.

    Does anyone know if this figurine ever went into production? If so, any idea where the stocks are now, how many and who has them? Really hoping it was produced and will see the light of day soon.

    This evening I applied to PayPal fir a refund on an outstanding order (Image of the fendahl) and I got a response in seconds to say the dispute was found in my favour and a refund is on the way. This happened too quickly to be a human response, must be an automated response to all Eaglemoss claims. Would rather have the figures though. Presumably there will now be no Leela, no Clara, Vicki, Victoria etc. My collection will never feel complete.

    This is a great figurine!!! Any signs of any other figures being sent out? Even fp seem to have run dry. Don’t mind as long as they’re still coming, but any info would be nice.

    Tbh it would be absolutely amazing if they made a Pting figure, or a Flux special edition figure set with Swarm, Azure, and the Passenger! That would honestly be so awesome!

      I like your idea of a 3-figure Flux box – ‘rejuvenated’ Swarm is on its was as a regular issue (218) but perhaps the box could have old Swarm, regular Azure and the Passenger?

      Hi Neil,

      Nice to see you back!

      The reins in particular look like they were a fiddle to do. Impressive figurine however so worth all the work! Nice to see a Sontaran with helmet on too.

      As others have said, it would be fantastic to see a Cheetah Person similarly astride a horse too!

    If they can do this, they can do a Cheetah Person on Horseback!

      No question squab. Ill be purchasing this version even though we dont get to see the face. They didnt quite get the single figures features quite right so opted out of that one. I liked the idea of a sontaran on horseback and like someone else has mentioned hopefully we get kara the cheetah person. They could have gone as far as on horseback boxset and included tom from mandragara or grendal kidnapping romana.

      This pleases all parties for those that dont like one version of skaak or those that like both.
