Doctor Who The Other (War) Doctor 5″ Figure

Available to order from www.forbiddenplanet.co.uk

The ‘Other Doctor’ is the Doctor’s dark chapter, an _hitherto unknown incarnation whose existence he has spent centuries repressing, a secret he wants no one to know of.

He is a relic of the past, part of the great Time War, when he spent centuries fighting alongside his fellow Time Lords against the Daleks and made the final decision to end it with a desperate act that cost that incarnation the right to use the name “Doctor”.


This haunted and battle-worn Other Doctor is finally forgiven after helping find a new solution to end the war, giving the Eleventh Doctor a new purpose as he heads into further adventures.

      they must be snowed under with getting the impossible set out as well

      they must have sold at least a couple of hundred of these just in one day

      they might just have a back log

      *quick. If there is any Mancunion Whovians get to Forbidden Planet before they sell out as the guy pushed the boxs back and not many were hiding behind the Impossible set. So be quick. This was just luck today. Or like their page on facebook. Really helpful and so friendly. I am just waiting to see if they have Ace in stock. Did not think. Thanks booboo for me in the end not giving up hope.

    although is a nice figure I don’t want to keep going for 5″ to 3.75 so I shall be sticking with the 3.75 and all of the 5″ I wont buy, I use to by them but I don’t want to buy them both because it will mess up how they are displayed, anyway enough about me, this figure is really nice

      I was so excited about being able to have my chance and now well I am furious that is so un fair really really annoyed right now new I should have gone sooner yet again missed my chance they better have re-stocks as I am not even joking I am not I repeat NOT! Paying like 30 pound for this figure. That is just pathetic. Wow! Anyone else furious. Who was either going to go Saturday or tomorrow and buy this. Wow!

      I understand. But my goodness what two days have 50 quid and wow just wow all gone in a flash. I will ring them. I’ll ask them, it’s stupid. Just when they get them in I miss the chance again.

      September 24th, 2014 - 9:00pm

      they had 100’s, and 100′ sold in 24 hours

      that’s what we are here for to inform the “masses” and give everyone a chance – we did tell everyone to be quick at the top of the post and we meant it

      they may add more – and if they do you we will be sure to tell everyone

    • Anthonydoctorwho fan

      September 24th, 2014 - 9:17pm

      I sore the be quick but seeing as not all the Who stock goes in the puff of smock in forbidden planet I just yet again just thought I will go tomorrow. Feel daft. But Seeing as they have just sold out do you think it might happen again. Surly Character could produce more seeing as some fans haven’t managed to buy one like myself. I just hope so. I commented on the FP Manchester page two days ago no reply. So I commented again but seeing as they are all the same website then I think it will still be sold out there. Livid. Might try looing, pray.

      Tbh I agree as only should be one per person but also not understanding that they don’t have them restocked in store its the same with classic sets at fp Cambridge as they now don’t restock them but still have them at fp London

    Still got mine in it’s box from when it was released, ready for my boys for Christmas. Glad I didn’t get forced into forking out £30+ for it on Ebay. Nice to know they have it back at a decent price if I was ever to need it, although how much longer they have them for remains to be seen.
