Character Options manufactured Doctor Who action figures in the 5" scale that tied into the 2011 series of Doctor Who. Though the line did not include representations of every character in the series, it did incorporate many of them, as detailed below.
As was usual for Character Options, the figures were not actually 5" tall. Instead the Dalek figure was 5" tall, and all others were scaled to match it.[1] 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.
Regular character figures
Eleventh Doctor
- The Ganger Doctor and normal Eleventh Doctor figures came packaged with the Flesh substance and a Flesh mask. An Eleventh Doctor with beard came in Wave 1C.
Amy Pond
- The single release Amelia Pond figure was labelled as part of Series 5's figure range, but was marketed with the Series 6 range.
