This is an official UK press release from Character/Toys r Us/Evolution PR

Exclusive toy range launches and includes a never before seen Eighth Doctor Figure!

Toys “R” Us has linked up with Character Options to bring to Doctor Who fans young and old a very special collector’s series of figures that will be available only in Toys “R” Us Stores in the UK.

The new collection of 11 Figures has launched and will be displayed in brand new resealable packaging that allows the figures to be enjoyed out of pack while also storable in pristine condition.

amy-pond-box7502

The new 5inch figure series has been created in response to the great demand from Doctor Who fans who are eager to see the return of the highly details larger format. It will include:

  • Clara Oswald (played By Jenna Coleman) – the most recent time travelling companion of The Doctor
  • Rose Tyler (played By Billie Piper) with K9
  • Amy Pond (played by Karen Gillan) in her famed police outfit
  • Three separate Eleventh Doctor figures (played by Matt Smith): One in purple Jacket , another donning a cowboy hat as in Doctor Who – A Christmas Carol, and finally a classically posed Eleventh Doctor with a his ubiquitous Sonic device
  • Four versions of the current and Twelfth Doctor (played by Peter Capaldi) are also part of the line-up. Known for being a rather dapper Time Lord, there is a choice of figure in White, Black, Purple or Polka Dot shirt.
  • And last but definitely not least a brand new Eighth Doctor figure (played by Paul McGann) and as seen in the episode Night of The Doctor. The Eighth Doctor has never before been seen in the 5 inch figure format and so this piece it bound to whip up a storm with fans.

What’s more, to add variety to this stunning Collector’s series, four 3.75 inch Wave 4 figures will also be available.

toys-r-us-shop

Al Dewar, Product Development Director, Character Options commented: “This collector’s series is really special.

The fans have been requesting a return to the 5.5 inch format for a long time and in producing this collection I feel we have brought to them exactly what they have been demanding. The most exciting part for me however, is the creation of the Eighth Doctor figure, which is often seen as the missing piece for the true Doctor Who collector.”

12th-doctor-purple7501

Mike Coogan, Marketing & eCommerce Director, Toy “R” Us further commented: “Toys “R” Us has a particular affinity with the Doctor Who fan and each year we like to bring to them something that they could not get anywhere else. This new series is exceptional and I believe one of the most comprehensive collector’s series to date – It will be an instant hit with all collectors.”

    sorry if this is a silly question Booboo, but would you inform us through a post if/when any of the 5.5″ stuff goes out of stock on TRU website, im not planning on ordering anything until 8 and 11 come out and i would like to get a warning all the ones already available that i want are gone

      not sure i can keep up with it

      will definitely post when the 8th and 11th are available though

      Must admit i would like to know the story behind the 8th Dotor

      I got the 11th Doctor (purple coat) on Saturday at Poole TRU. Not that the website mentions it’s in stock or anything… Best advice: keep checking your local store each day

    Why don’t they release the Raptor from Dinosaurs on a Spaceship in the new collector series? After all, it would add to the range, and the Primeval CGI models were used so they could just reuse that toy and release it in the Doctor Who packaging. It would add a ‘monster’ to the line and would really be apetising for kids. Lets be honest, we all had some sort of interest in Dinosaurs in youth, I still love them now!

    • 2doctors2000

      November 8th, 2015 - 6:12pm

      Plus many may see it as a new figure in the line as people may not remember the Primeval raptor or even considered that the same CGI model was used

      November 8th, 2015 - 8:37pm

      I honestly don’t see why not to be honest. More so than Stetson Doctor who is readily available on eBay.
      It crosses a common barrier as a dinosaur toy as well as a figure.
      And of course it’s cheap for Character.
      It’s better than some of the rereleases so far

    Just been my local one. They had loads of stock, only two black shirts and white shirts though so they were a must buy. One line of 3.75″, no Danny Cyberman though, I bought the Supreme and Doctor in Spacesuit there.
    The TARDIS was also there in mass, I’m amazed at how much was there. Everything bar 8 and the 11th Doctor with big screwdriver in the 5″.
    I haven’t been into Toys R Us and saw that much 5″ since 2012/11 time. They had more 5″ than 3.75″.
    Also, a reduced Asylum set as well, lovely to see a revitalised fresh looking few shelves not dead and drowned into a corner.

    Here’s a wishlist idea, Al said that if Missy is successful, CO might try another 2-variant limited edition figure thing again, so I propose…

    OSGOOD – 2 variants!

    VARIANT 1
    In Glasses & Lab Coat / Removable Scarf / Switchable Bow Tie & Non-Bow Tie Shirt Pieces / Inhaler / Blue Osgood Box

    VARIANT 2
    In Sonic Shades & Question-Mark Shirt under Brown Jumper / Inhaler / Red Osgood Box

    Heads can again be swappable and the packaging can feature pattern from their respective Osgood boxes, like Missy’s Device from that figures’ packaging.

    THOUGHTS??

    Ordered the Tardis and Clara and got it delivered today but wasn’t at home unfortunately. But, weirdly, TRU packaged them separately so the postman made an attempt to squeeze Clara through the letter box since it was only in a bubblewrap envelope.
    Well, he succeeded and I got a lovely crushed box delivered.
    Why couldn’t TRU put the 2 items in the same box ?

      nah, that’s bad karma. The figure is fine (well, looks fine, still in packaging, although one of the legs seem a bit bent but that’s not their fault).
      The Tardis came today in a huuuge box, Clara easily could have been put in there, donno why they decided not to do it.

    I think the next wave of 5 inch figures all need to be monsters/villains. But I do love all these figures, just feel like we need a monster wave been as the last new 5 inch monster figure from the new series was The Cybermats and The Peg Doll Soldier. Could be a mix of Series 6-8. Maybe
    Handbot, Minotaur, The Gunslinger, Snowman, 2013 Ice Warrior, 2013 Cyberman, Whisperman, 2013 Zygon, Half Faced Man, The Teller and The Foretolf Mummy. And each figure could come with either a Cherub or Black Cube.
