A well known production image of multiple Dapol figures. From left to right; Tetrap, Mel, Fourth Doctor, Seventh Doctor, K9, Ace, Silver Dalek, and Imperial Dalek; all in the TARDIS.
Dapol was a model railway maker which secured the licence from the BBC to produce and market a range of Doctor Who toys. The licence ran from 1988 until 2002.
Its range included action figures of the Doctor, companions and enemies, as well as various TARDIS models. The company often released obviously flawed figures, such as a five sided TARDIS console instead of the normal six, a green K9, a Fourth Doctor with no hat or scarf, and an undersized Second Doctor with no articulation.
Under the terms of its licence Dapol also released special edition glassware products and adhesive transfers. In 1995 Dapol obtained a further licence to house and operate Doctor Who exhibitions.
