This article needs to be updated.
No series 5 or 6 sets listed.
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.
This article details the Doctor Who action figure sets released by Character Options for the modern revival series (2005 onwards). Many classic series sets have also been released.
