Underground Toys, the exclusive U.S. importer of Character Options' popular Doctor Who action figures, announces a new figure exclusive: The 6th Doctor as seen in the episode "Caves of Androzani". Available exclusively in the U.S. at select Toys"R"Us stores, this figure depicts the newly regenerated 6th Doctor, as played by Colin Baker, still wearing the mud splashed outfit of his previous incarnation.


Doctor Who "Caves of Androzani" Synopsis:

The TARDIS arrives on Androzani Minor, the source of a life-prolonging drug refined from a substance called Spectrox. Production of the drug is controlled by Sharaz Jek, a madman in self imposed exile, who blames Morgus, a powerful industrialist on Androzani Major, for all his misfortunes. The two sides are pitched in a convoluted ongoing war which, unknown to Jek, gives Morgus a monopoly of Spectrox on his planet, Major. Jek becomes infatuated with Peri, and saves her and the Doctor from being executed on Morgus’s orders. However, the two travellers learn that they have contracted spectrox toxaemia, a fatal disease. The only antidote is the milk from a queen bat, which the Doctor must find in the deep caves on Minor. With moments to spare, the Doctor carries Peri back to the TARDIS, where he gives her all the milk he has collected. She recovers, but the Doctor has to regenerate to save his own.

My local TRUs have very few DR. Who figs...just a couple 9th Doctors kicking around....been that way forever. Anyone in the states see significant amounts of dr. who figs being stocked? Also, anywhere better than Newberry Comics to find these state-side?

Ditto here in Spotsylvania, Virginia. Haven't seen a Who figure stocked. But "Who" knows (har), they may soon. Recently my TRUs have been doing a good job of stocking more cool toys - NECA, McFarlane, Mezco, etc. As for stores to find Who figs at, I'm not a huge collector of 'em (have a few from the Comic-Cons), but a quick glance at some of our sponsors - BigBadToyStore, Urban Collector, etc - seem to have a pretty decent stock of them. I order about 90% of all my figures online - saves all the hassle of the hunt

I have never seen a single Who figure in my local TRU, but did see a couple of Judoon Troopers in a Los Angeles store once. I find them mostly in the comic book shops and high end collectible stores... where they're usually marked up pretty high.
