Tonner Character Figures™ were a series of Doctor Who and Torchwood 16" - 17" tall dolls firmly aimed at the collectible market, with an average price of close to USD 200. A part of the reason for the expense was not only their dimensions, but also the unusual degree of attention taken on each doll's clothing — a particular forté of the prestigious Tonner Doll Company.

Along with each figure came an equally-collectible box. In the case of the Doctor Who figures, the box was in the regeneration colours of orange and gold, and featured Gallifreyan script and the RTD-era logo.

The Doctor Who figures were released roughly around the broadcast of The End of Time.[1] This was somewhat odd timing for a series 3-era Martha Jones figure to make her debut. However, prototype dolls were seen as early as January 2009 at the International Dolls Expo.[2] This means that the dolls were under development no later than 2008 — when Jones was still very much an active character.
