[[Character Options]] manufactured '''''Doctor Who'' action figures in the 5" scale''' which tied into the [[Series 1 (Doctor Who 2005)|2005 series]] of ''[[Doctor Who]]'', as well as the [[2005]] [[Christmas Special]] ''[[The Christmas Invasion (TV story)|The Christmas Invasion]]''. | |||
Because this was the first in the 21st century line of action figures, it set the standard for those that followed. For instance, most figures are not really five inches tall. The [[Dalek]] is 5" tall and all other figures scaled to match the Dalek's height.<ref>[http://doctorwhotoys.net/designworks3.htm Scale notes from doctorwhotoys.net]</ref> | |||
