In 2008, [[Character Options]] began releasing '''action figures of characters from the classic ''[[Doctor Who]]'' series in the 5" scale'''. As was customary for Character Options, the figures were not actually 5" tall. Instead the [[Dalek]] figure was 5" tall and all other figures are scaled to match it.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://doctorwhotoys.net/designworks3.htm|title=Behind the Scenes at Design Works: Part 3 A little history|date of source=|website name=doctorwhotoys.net|accessdate=22nd October 2011}}</ref> | In [[2008 (releases)|2008]], [[Character Options]] began releasing '''action figures of characters from the classic ''[[Doctor Who]]'' series in the 5" scale'''.

Figures were often released in batches, referred to as "Waves". Thus, a figure might be said to be in "Wave 1", "Wave 2", or the like. Note that as of 2016 the wave has been re-dubbed the 5.5" range, with all figures appearing after 2016 as part of the "5.5" range". | Figures were often released in batches, referred to as "Waves".

The initial assortment contained three former incarnations of [[the Doctor]] and an assortment of creatures and [[robot]]s. The focus was on the [[Fourth Doctor]]'s era. Another feature of this line was the inclusion of parts of a build a figure in each toy (namely the [[K1|K1 Robot]] and the [[Cyber-Controller]] from [[TV]]: ''[[The Tomb of the Cybermen (TV story)|The Tomb of the Cybermen]]''). A second wave of six figures was released in 2010, but without a build-it component. Other waves followed. | The initial assortment contained three former incarnations of [[the Doctor]] and an assortment of creatures and [[robot]]s. The focus was on the [[Fourth Doctor]]'s era.

Latest revision as of 19:17, 22 April 2024
This article needs to be updated.
This article needs figures released late 2011 and 2012.
These omissions are so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Check out the discussion page and revision history for further clues about what needs to be updated in this article.
In 2008, Character Options began releasing action figures of characters from the classic Doctor Who series in the 5" scale. As was customary for Character Options, the figures were not actually 5" tall. Instead the Dalek figure was 5" tall and all other figures are scaled to match it.[1] Figures were often released in batches, referred to as "Waves". Thus, a figure might be said to be in "Wave 1", "Wave 2", or the like. Note that as of 2016 the wave has been re-dubbed the 5.5" range, with all figures appearing after 2016 as part of the "5.5" range".
The initial assortment contained three former incarnations of the Doctor and an assortment of creatures and robots. The focus was on the Fourth Doctor's era. Another feature of this line was the inclusion of parts of a build a figure in each toy (namely the K1 Robot and the Cyber-Controller from TV: The Tomb of the Cybermen). A second wave of six figures was released in 2010, but without a build-it component. Other waves followed.

- The second wave composed of the Fifth Doctor and a Supreme Dalek from TV: Resurrection of the Daleks, the Ninth Doctor and an Imperial Dalek from TV: The Parting of the Ways, and the Seventh Doctor and a Renegade Dalek from TV: Remembrance of the Daleks.
