I don't even know how to search for this answer, as I don't know their names, but who are the characters on the wiki's background, the "doll"-looking characters to the left and right of article spaces? Are they Autons? PSH aka Kimera 757 (talk) contribs) 02:20, February 12, 2012 (UTC)

I think they're supposed to be licenced action figures with the heads swapped. Left is definitely the Fifth Doctor with Four's distinctive scarf, while the right is the Ainley Master, though I'm not sure whose torso that is... -- Tybort (talk page) 02:43, February 12, 2012 (UTC)

Nope, no head-swapping involved. That's just Davison from Castrovalva (part 1) and Ainley from Planet of Fire. That's just how the action figures come. They were put up to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the beginning of the Davison era, which happened in January.
