Peter Capaldi Figure Doctor Who Regenerates / 2014
DOCTOR WHO REGENERATES FOR 2014
Christmas Day 2013 ushered in a new era for Doctor Who as over 11 million viewers tuned in to see Matt Smith’s regeneration episode, welcoming Peter Capaldi into the esteemed role of the Doctor in the process.
Doctor Who fans around the world will now be eager to know what’s in store for Character Options’ popular 3.75-inch action figure collection. Since 2006, Character Options has been the global manufacturer of the official Doctor Who action figure range and with over 8 million action figures sold; the first official figure of a new Doctor is always hotly anticipated.
The exciting new collection for March 2014 will not disappoint. There are six stylish new 3.75- inch fully articulated action figures featuring a Zygon, a brand new Clara Oswald, Matt Smith’s Eleventh Doctor, a Weeping Angel (screaming), an Assault Dalek, an Imperial Guard Dalek and of course the newly regenerated Twelfth Doctor (Peter Capaldi).
The range will continue expanding in 2014, with a new series of figures planned to coincide with Series 8; Peter Capaldi’s first full series in the role.
The 8th series will make its way into collector’s hands from September. More news on the latest range will be unveiled shortly.

The Other
January 22nd, 2014 - 8:44pmOh dear, just as I was getting my hopes up for a great new Matt Smith we get that sculpt and paint again
🙁
And the first Clara was much better…
Ah well, the rest still look great and I’ll have to try and find one of the decently painted original 11th Doctors!
And that tweed/waist coat hybrid is unnaccurate, but interesting
🙂

January 23rd, 2014 - 12:07amYes since when did Matt Smith wear a waist coat with tweed?
Dalek the Supreme
January 23rd, 2014 - 3:50pmClara looks far more accurate, as for Smith, well, that waistcoat had BETTER NOT be on the final release!
Dalek the Supreme
January 23rd, 2014 - 3:51pmOk, I went back and looked at the Toy Fair photos, and the waistcoat is not there, so the Doctor figure on that picture is likely to be an earlier prototype.

January 22nd, 2014 - 6:42pmfor me 5 inch will always be the best but 3 inch is not that bad cant wait for more figures and one off 5 inch 🙂
the mr master
January 22nd, 2014 - 6:40pmAt first i was not happy with the new scale but now i am so excited and am really enjoying them. I cant wait for the new figures and everything.
So looks like march is gunna be big.. Hopefully 🙂

January 22nd, 2014 - 6:38pmI think this looks great, I really like the 3.75″ figures. Please remember everyone, that these are made for children to play with. Everyone keeps going on about 5″ figures and I would like to say just wait till SDCC, underground toys must be aware that a 5″ 12th Doctor figure would be a huge seller.
A 5″ Capaldi will happen, just be patient my friends.

January 22nd, 2014 - 6:50pmGreat Point

January 22nd, 2014 - 6:53pmI hope Underground Toys do a 5 Inch Clara the the series 6 figure CO didn’t do
RORY DOCTOR RIVER POND
January 22nd, 2014 - 7:06pmi think every doctor and companion should have a 5inch figure for the collectors as they will buy
RORY DOCTOR RIVER POND
January 22nd, 2014 - 6:36pmif i do end up buying, i will only buy as a collector so will only get capaldi when he is in his costume
so amy and tenth doc are the wave after this?
what new clara is there?
DrWhoFan1
January 22nd, 2014 - 6:47pmWhen complete I’m thinking it’s Day of The Doctor Clara as I remember the pattern on her dress so I’m presuming that she’ll have a jacket on and then will a bit of crafts work it’ll look like what she wore in Day of the Doctor. That’s my theory anyway, what were you thinking?
David FutureDoctor
January 22nd, 2014 - 6:26pmMy birthdays in march!!! capaldi for my birthday please 😀 really looking forward to this one.
Dalek Smith
January 22nd, 2014 - 6:25pmbooboo do you think we will get a 5″ Capaldi, for the collectors who don’t want to buy 3.75″?
booboo
January 22nd, 2014 - 7:31pmnot for a long time
Dalek Smith
January 22nd, 2014 - 6:22pmNot too sure on his facial expression. I’d have preferred a more stern face, like in Day of the Doctor.
Gallifrey Falls No More
January 22nd, 2014 - 6:22pmWhy is it so hard for them to make a 5″ series 7 doctor? The head sculpt, the body and the trousers. Borrow Colin Baker’s coat and we would have a Bells Of St John figure!
VespiformsSting
January 22nd, 2014 - 6:13pmTheres one thing if they wanted to do a Rowan Atkinson as the Doctor this wouldnt take much changing…..
Anonymous
January 22nd, 2014 - 5:54pmWhy don’t people realise that 5″ was stopped because retailers weren’t buying them I’m. Just because 3.75″ isn’t what you want dosent mean that 5″ will suddenly start becoming worth it for retailers
Gallifrey Falls No More
January 22nd, 2014 - 6:19pmThink how many people will buy the John Hurt figure. If they did a few series 7 figures for about £10-£15, a lot of people would get them.
tardistakeoff
January 22nd, 2014 - 6:28pmTo be honest, the reason that the 5 inch figures failed to sell was that they chose to make minor characters into action figures, and the poor quality control, they let themselves down but instead of getting better they used the gimmick of changing scale to try and make themselves relevant again, seriously character set themselves up to fail.
VespiformsSting
January 22nd, 2014 - 8:29pmI must have imagined buying my shelf full after shelf full of classic figures. I simply think they made the wrong stuff and certainly don’t take account of what appeals to which group….

January 22nd, 2014 - 5:47pmThe human figures in the 3.75″ range remind me of the old 80’s star wars figures where they have just a vague resemblance of the character. I hope UT release a 5 inch 12th Doctor set so we can see what he should look like.
dalek eternal
January 22nd, 2014 - 6:10pmthe original star wars figures were good these are nothing like original star wars these are terrible and are more comparable to the new star wars figures
Anonymous
January 22nd, 2014 - 6:40pmNo, trust me, the original Star Wars figures were pretty rubbish….look at this http://img1.etsystatic.com/013/0/6736740/il_340x270.466284185_30vy.jpg. This is apparently Harrison Ford.
Now the newer figure are better…but still pretty rubbish like all 3.75 scale human figures, the monsters etc are ok.
SeanMozzy
January 22nd, 2014 - 5:45pmHahaha this is awful! XD They need to bring back 5″ or hand over the license to someone else, it’s becoming a laughing stock
dalek eternal
January 22nd, 2014 - 6:11pmI agree
Andrew
January 22nd, 2014 - 5:39pmawful, they should cancel the line and go back to 5′, we need a 12 doctors set lol
James Evans
January 22nd, 2014 - 5:27pmLike the new figures.i saw on a photo that on a figure or set box that there are two more figure spaces left so hope to see handels and the 11th doctor with coat from the snowman and time of the doctor and wooden cyberman but not RARE!!!

January 22nd, 2014 - 5:25pmIt’s funny how this and the Character Building figures both have a raised eyebrow!
😉
VespiformsSting
January 22nd, 2014 - 9:51pmMaybe the melted down a consignment of old Spock figures from ebay……
bigfin20
January 22nd, 2014 - 5:23pmThat looks terrible.
I Froze Gallifrey
January 22nd, 2014 - 5:14pmWhen will Wave 2 be up on Forbidden Planet?
booboo
January 22nd, 2014 - 5:14pmno idea but we will let you know when they are
I Froze Gallifrey
January 22nd, 2014 - 5:23pmOk thanks booboo. What’s your favourite figure from Wave 2? Mine is either The Zygon or The Twelfth Doctor Regenerated.
tardistakeoff
January 22nd, 2014 - 6:36pmI swear it says they will be on shelves for march 2014, or is that about something else?
I Froze Gallifrey
January 22nd, 2014 - 6:41pmI meant when will they be up for pre order, not when they will be in stock.
VespiformsSting
January 22nd, 2014 - 5:10pmThat figurines eyebrows are amazing they should send it as an ambassador to the planet Delphon….

matt9982
January 22nd, 2014 - 5:09pmBooboo What does “More news on the lateset range will be unveiled shortly” ?
Does it refer to the March wave or the other stuff at the Toy Fair such as the Console room or 10 + Amy Figures?
booboo
January 22nd, 2014 - 5:11pmmore official images of the other figures i would think
matt9982
January 22nd, 2014 - 5:14pmOh great! Can’t wait for them! The best part of my year is when the next wave of figures are announced and released, sometimes even better than the series itself! 🙂
Dalek Spectre
January 22nd, 2014 - 5:03pmWhy give him a goofy face when in all the clips we have seen in him he has a serious face
Craig
January 22nd, 2014 - 4:53pmmeaningless, unless they release the 5″ version I am not interested.
the war doctor is coming out as 5″ so why not the 12th doctor too.
5″ or nothing!
Trenzalore
January 22nd, 2014 - 4:52pmFor a second there when I was scrolling down I though it would have his new costume on 😆 Oh well I can only dream for now.
It looks very good although weird to see him in matt’s costume

UDWF1
January 22nd, 2014 - 4:46pmI think they did a very good job of this, but some part of me really hopes that they do a 5″ Capaldi and maybe Clara too so I can actually display the 12th Doctor with the previous 11 (or 12)
ParadigmDalek1325
January 22nd, 2014 - 4:46pmMain figure to get: Regeneration figure! Well that’s what I generally plan to get.
The Big Friendly Button
