This article needs a big cleanup.

It's unclear what's wrong with the article, because the editor who placed this tag here didn't enumerate the page's problems.

These problems might be so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Talk about it here or check the revision history or Manual of Style for more information.

With the Doctor Who series reboot in 2005, Character Options acquired the major toy licence.
Central to its releases was a series of 5" action figures depicting characters from the TV series. (It should be noted that the figures are not really 5" tall. This is in fact the height of the Dalek (who was produced first) and all other figures were scaled to match it.)[1].
