Time and Space Await For the Doctor and His Buildable TARDIS
Jun 03, 2011
Traveling in his tetchy old Type-40 TARDIS the Doctor has visited many eras and environments, from ancient history to deep space, alternate universes to the end of time itself. This autumn, the Doctor embarks on a new adventure with Underground Toys' Doctor Who Character Building Sets which take the Time Lord and his friends into a whole new dimension — buildable bricks, figures, and playsets!
Fans will be able to build their own Doctor Who world with all their favourite characters including the Doctor and Amy Pond or their famous foes such as the Daleks and the Weeping Angels. Underground Toys' Character Building range includes 3-dimensional minifigs, brought to life with sculpted facial features, while the playsets will be uniquely tailored to Doctor Who, recreating the places and adventures the Doctor and Amy experienced in the fifth season of the hit BBC America series. The Doctor's TARDIS, the Dalek starship (seen in "Victory of the Daleks"), and the catacombs of 51st-century Alfava Metraxis (seen in "The Time of Angels") are all constructable.

What makes Underground Toys' Doctor Who Character Building sets distinctive is the use of texture on some of the building blocks, whether the sleek and smooth edges of a spaceship or the rough edges of a rock face. This will be pivotal in recreating each environment, providing a natural look, but still allowing easy construction play. Builders can also mix and match the Doctor Who Character Building sets with sets built with other brick systems to enable the Doctor and Amy to travel into the many worlds in space and time the TARDIS can take them to, from medieval Europe to a busy city, from high seas piracy of the age of the sail to space adventures.
Said Matt Smith, the actor who portrays the Eleventh Doctor, of the Character Building sets: "It was very surreal and funny coming face to face with a miniature version of myself as the Doctor but I'm glad that the Doctor's trusty Sonic Screwdriver is in his hand, ready to fend off attacks from monsters!" Karen Gillan, who costars in Doctor Who as Amy Pond, added, "I absolutely love these miniature toys of The Doctor and Amy Pond despite the strange sensation of seeing myself immortalised in plastic and miniature and buildable… and dissectible. I'm loving Pond's flaming ginger mane and it's funny to think that The Doctor and Amy are small enough to travel around in someone's pocket!"All of time and space await builders big and small when they collect and construct all three of the Doctor Who Character Building Sets! Plus, Character Options will be releasing additional sets in the months to come that will continue to bring the worlds of Doctor Who to life, adding new settings and new characters.
