This new face was "lined, but seemingly through years of smiling rather than age" and "not unpleasant" — ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Divided Loyalties (novel)}}) the same form he wore during his encounter with the [[First Doctor]], [[Steven Taylor]] and [[Dodo Chaplet]]. ([[TV]]: {{cite source|The Celestial Toymaker (TV story)}}) This definitive Toymaker was a tall and imposing man with deep-set, glittering [[Eye|eyes]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Celestial Toymaker (novelisation)}}) He dressed as a [[Chinese]] [[Mandarin (bureaucrat)|mandarin]], wearing a round [[black]] hat with [[Gold (colour)|gold]] thread and a [[Silver (colour)|silver]], [[red]] and [[blue]] collar over a [[dragon]]-patterned black robe encrusted with [[ruby|rubies]], [[emerald]]s, [[diamond]]s and [[pearl]]s. Within the accounts of this particular encounter, the Toymaker was dressed in the theatrical Chinese outfit in the context of being the Doctor's opponent in the [[Trilogic Game]], much as his other living toys changed their outfits to match the theme of a given game.

After Rallon managed to separate himself from the Toymaker, the Toymaker merged with [[the Observer]], Rallon's semi-independent [[Watcher (Logopolis)|Watcher]], allowing him to effectively [[Regeneration|regenerate]] into a new physical body to replace Rallon's original one, with Rallon's mind no longer part of him, though his new body's personality would be influenced by the personality of Rallon's possible incarnations. The [[Fifth Doctor]] expected that the Toymaker would "look the same" despite the minor changes in demeanour; ([[PROSE]]: {{cite source|Divided Loyalties (novel)}}) by one account, he was proved correct when the [[Sixth Doctor]] met the Toymaker in [[Blackpool]], with him still possessing the same "aristocratic before". ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Nightmare Fair (novelisation)}}) Another telling of the same encounter, however, depicted the Toymaker as now having a distinctly different voice and appearance, with a greying beard and soulful, melancholy eyes.

In the form encountered by the [[Fourteenth Doctor]], the Toymaker appeared as a blond man. He wore a number of different outfits based on his whims and the current situation, such as wearing a black [[top hat]], [[tailcoat]] and [[trousers]] with an [[Alabaster (colour)|alabaster]] [[bow tie]] and [[waistcoat]] as well as a plain [[white]] [[shirt]] when he danced in the streets of [[21st century London]]. His outfit as a shop proprietor in [[1925]] was made up of a [[Caramel (colour)|caramel]] [[brown]] [[leather]] [[apron]], a single-breasted waistcoat of [[Plum (colour)|plum]] and [[Sapphire (colour)|sapphire]] [[tartan]] with a [[fob watch]], a white and [[Ebony (colour)|ebony]] [[pinstripe]] shirt, [[Tan (colour)|tan]] trousers, and white and brown [[spectator shoes]]. He also wore a [[shako]] and [[frock coat]] in [[scarlet]] and ivory with gold trims, [[beige]] [[breeches]] and ebony black [[boot]]s with [[crimson]] laces when he terrorized [[UNIT United Kingdom|UNIT]], and then a black [[leather jacket]] with a [[khaki]] uniform and an ivory [[scarf]] as well as [[goggles]] when he took control of the galvanic beam.
