Character Options manufactured Doctor Who action figures in the 5" scale that tied into the 2011 series (series 6) 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. Certain variations of particular figures may appear in different ways, as shown below.

Note that not all figures released in this series were from the corresponding series of the television show. One example is the individual figure release of River Song, whose appearance is based on her appearance in series 5 of the revived show.

Regular character figures

Eleventh Doctor

  • The Stetson-wearing standard release came in Wave 1A. The Ganger Doctor and non-hatted standard Eleventh Doctor figures came in Wave 1B, packaged with the Flesh substance and a Flesh mask. The straitjacketed Eleventh Doctor also came in Wave 1B. A standard Eleventh Doctor release with a 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 Wave 1A of the Series 6 range.

River Song

  • The River Song and Pandorica chair release was released in the US a Comic Con exclusive, but the remaining stock was available in the UK via Forbidden Planet. The chair was compatible with the previously released 'Pandorica Collection' MP3 CD, so that five of them could be attached to the chair to assembled the Pandorica.
