This line of action figures from Character Options was released to tie in with Series 1 of Doctor Who.

  • (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].)
  • The series includes figures based on The Christmas Invasion, which Character Options considers part of Series 1.

  • The Assault Dalek had a combination claw/welding torch manipulator arm as seen in DW: The Parting of the Ways. The figure features rolling wheels, turning head, elevating eyestalk and ball jointed arms. The eyestalk and arms are removable so as to be compatible with the Genesis Ark playset.
