Doctor Who Vortex Edition Collector figures of The Fifteenth Doctor and Ruby Sunday from Character Options

Character Options have announced their new 5.5 inch Doctor Who collector figures of the Fifteenth Foctor and Roby. These are now badged as 'Vortex Edition' releases and are what Character are calling Generation 3 figures inclusive of improved decor and articulation with a move to pinless joints and improved ankle, waist, shoulder, and neck joints. Each figure comes with accessories with the Doctor inclusive of the landmine from 'Boom', his Sonic and Psychic Paper, while Ruby features her phone and bag. We also get a new window box packaging design.


These particular figures are exclusive to Character Online with a release date of the 17th of October. They are sold as a pair, but packed individually and then into a single outer sleeve. They will cost £39.99 which is £20 per figure. Postage in the UK is free when you spend over £20. They are currently listed on the Character Online website but are currently out of stock. We would assume they will be live to order on the 17th for immediate dispatch.


There will also be blister-carded single releases of the Doctor and Ruby in variant outfits heading to wider retailer outlets. It is reported the Doctor will feature tan shoes, green trousers, and a teal shirt. Ruby will come in a denim jacket with blue skort and a cream jumper.


We will have added all of these in to our extensive Doctor Who Collector Database



Character Options is delighted to announce a brand-new exclusive for its iconic Doctor Who Collection – the Doctor Who Fifteenth Doctor and Ruby Vortex Edition 5.5” Collector figures bundle pack


In this exclusive online version of these figures, there is the Fifteenth Doctor as played by Ncuti Gatwa in his tan coat with orange striped shirt, blue trousers and red and black trainers. The Doctor’s accessories include the blue sonic screwdriver, landmine from the episode, ‘Boom’ and ubiquitous Psychic Paper. Meanwhile the Ruby Sunday figure, as played by Millie Gibson, is presented as she looked in her debut story dressed in red jumper, tartan skorts as well as her black bomber jacket, and comes with her mobile phone, and shoulder bag accessories.


These Gen 3 figures feature a higher specification decoration for extra detail and features include internal pivots on the neck and ankles, ball jointed waist and shoulders as well as internal pins on the arms and legs.


This online exclusive set features specially designed packaging to allow the figures to be opened and played with or repacked for display. Each figure is individually boxed, and then beautifully sleeved together as a single purchase. A sturdy transit box is used to protect this unique set. The perfect piece of memorabilia to add to any Doctor Who collection.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
