[[Character Options]] manufactured '''''Doctor Who'' action figures in the 5" scale''' which tied into the [[Series 3 (Doctor Who 2005)|2007 series]] of ''[[Doctor Who]]'', as well as ''[[Time Crash (TV story)|Time Crash]]'' and ''[[Voyage of the Damned (TV story)|Voyage of the Damned]]''.


As was customary for Character Options, the figures were not actually 5" tall. The [[Dalek]] figure was 5" tall. All others were 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>
Figures were often released in batches, referred to as "Waves". Thus, a figure might be said to be in "Wave 1", or "Wave 2" for example.
