The Three Doctors Collectors Set 1972 – Pictures
The Three Doctors Collectors Set 1972
This item can be ordered from www.forbiddenplanet.co.uk. Please note this item is exclusive to Forbidden Planet international in the UK.
Don’t forget our interactive Doctor Who Classic Lists where you can see every classic 5″ figure ever made and save which one you own. There are also handy filers to see which figures have been made in each of The Doctors Era’s or see only companions, Masters etc.
A gel-like plasma creature arrives on Earth and hunts down the third Doctor, who calls on the Time Lords for help. The Time Lords themselves are in crisis as their energy is being drawn off into a black hole. They send the Doctor’s earlier selves to join him.
The first Doctor, caught in a time eddy and able only to advise, deduces that the creature is a time bridge. The third Doctor and Jo then give themselves up to it and are transported to a world of antimatter beyond the black hole.
On Earth, the second Doctor is forced to take refuge in the TARDIS along with the Brigadier and Sergeant Benton. On the advice of the first Doctor he switches off the ship’s force field, and the whole UNIT building is transported through the black hole.
Behind these events is Omega, a figure from Time Lord history whose solar engineering provided the power for time travel.
He has been trapped in the black hole ever since and now wants the Doctor to swap places with him, but it transpires that the corrosive properties of his domain have already destroyed his physical form, leaving only his will.
This Gel Guard was lit with a lamp under a glass table – it looks superb…
Contents:
The Brigadier In Peaked Cap with Pistol
Jo Grant (with alternate arms and removable gilet).
Gel Guard

The Dalek Predator
October 3rd, 2012 - 10:58pmDay Of the Daleks, Frontier in Space, The Daemons, Carnival of Monsters, The Three Doctors, Terror of the Autons, The Sea Devils and this last one in my opinion is very underrated, The Time Monster. Hope this helps.

CG
October 2nd, 2012 - 12:47pmAlmost defiantly these will look better in hand although I wouldn’t want to change the Brig, he looks awesome.
I think the gel guard should be a little oranger or redder and Jo’s face is unusual . . . . .
josh
October 2nd, 2012 - 8:50amcan you take the gillet of from joe?
booboo
October 2nd, 2012 - 9:02amapparently you can

McGann is the Doctor
January 10th, 2013 - 2:10pmI hate that one and Nicolas Courtney himself found it very uncomfy and was glad of the new one in Terror of the Autons.

McGann is the Doctor
January 10th, 2013 - 2:15pmDude, that set was cancelled.
It would have had the old Tardis, a Jon Pertwee Doctor and Bessie but for whatever reason it got cancelled ❗
Blake
September 30th, 2012 - 10:58amI don’t get the figures (apart from CB) but I’ve heard they might be releasing an 2nd doctors emperor dalek and then I will diffently get that
booboo
September 30th, 2012 - 11:18pmwont we all
Lord of who97
September 29th, 2012 - 9:35pmi think they should release the orange jacket 3rd doctor with the dark side of omegas mind
andrew
September 30th, 2012 - 8:47pmYeah, that would be cool, I think if demand wasn’t high for the gel guard, the doctor would be in this set. (which I would have preferred!)
The Dalek Predator
September 30th, 2012 - 11:10pmYeh! I would love an orange jacket third doctor
gary
September 29th, 2012 - 9:19pmProbably my favourite story and definately my favourite comapnions! I just can’t wait until January!!
The Doctor
September 29th, 2012 - 9:15pmIm not gonna get it. All i want is the Brigadier.
andrew
September 29th, 2012 - 6:00pmThis may be a bit out of the blue, but does anyone want a jacket less 5th doctor!? I dunno why, but CO did a lovely job of the pattern and texture on the jumper and I would love a figure of him just in that. I think it would make a great variant?
andrew
September 29th, 2012 - 4:28pmJust saw the UG tweet. The Gun can’t be holstered, oh well, but ti still looks good, doesn’t throw me off th figure at all!
McGann is The Doctor
September 29th, 2012 - 5:47pmBe careful not to lose that gun !
andrew
September 29th, 2012 - 6:02pmI have got a ferrero rocher box, its a greta little sized box which I keep many accessories in, if they’re not displayed with the figures, mainly sonic’s I keep with most of the doctors. but things like source maniulator, time sensor and Mona lisa, I keep in there, its great storage!
andrew
September 29th, 2012 - 6:03pmheres a picture of one, it makes greta little storage!http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?um=1&hl=en&sa=N&tbm=isch&tbnid=OLf-do4BcM85DM:&imgrefurl=http://www.recyclethis.co.uk/20091230/how-can-i-reuse-or-recycle-ferrero-rocher-boxes&docid=D_3EUey70Hb2YM&imgurl=http://www.recyclethis.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/ferrero-rocher-box.jpg&w=250&h=200&ei=2ClnUNmDEIOp0QWssoGgCw&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=351&sig=104859250043788447256&page=1&tbnh=130&tbnw=168&start=0&ndsp=21&ved=1t:429,r:5,s:0,i:152&tx=91&ty=24&biw=1366&bih=643

The Driver
September 29th, 2012 - 9:04amI love this set. It’s better than what I thought it’d be. I like the brigadier figure especially
McGann is The Doctor
September 29th, 2012 - 3:47pmThat’s the main reason I’m getting it !
Never saw the Three Doctors but I think the Gel Guard makes a surprisingly good figure and the Brigadier is perfect.
Blake
September 30th, 2012 - 10:53amYou should diffently see the three doctors
Schmoo
September 29th, 2012 - 8:55amAwesome! Definitely getting!

Mr Evil Fez
September 29th, 2012 - 8:28amHopefully they will do that soon.
I want Amy from AOTD and Rory from ATCM.
McGann is The Doctor
September 29th, 2012 - 5:48pmMy only regret there was no Doctor for this set, would have loved to get a red Third Doctor.
andrew
September 30th, 2012 - 8:48pmmhm, I hope they release him soon, a lot of people want one!
