NEWS: Doctor Who Constructable Toys

Fans of the World's Greatest Sci-Fi Hero (and should-be Patron Saint of England) are in for a treat with the up-coming release of these new line, the Doctor Who Constuctable Toys.

Created by Character Options - the same company that handles the excellent 5'' figures - the Constructable range combine fun, ''Super-Deformed''-style figures with Lego-like blocks and pieces and allow children (and let's face it, a lot of adults, too) to recreate the Doctor's adventures. As well as including modern menaces such as the Weeping Angels, Cybermen and Silurians, the range includes a superb set of the Doctor in all his 11-incarnation glory (see below.)

Wave One, set for release around Easter this year, consists of 10 blind-bagged (yes!) Micro Figures, retailing at 1.99 GBP. The set in full is: The Doctor, The Doctor without Jacket, Amy Pond, two Weeping Angel variants, Dalek Drone, Dalek Strategist, Cyberman, Silurian General Restac and a Smiler. There are also three ''Army Builder'' packs, each containing five ''repeat'' figures (Daleks, Cybermen or Weeping Angels) and a number of play-sets including the TARDIS interior (with exclusive River Song and Rory figures), TARDIS exterior, Cyberconversion Chamber and more.

Wave Two - set for release in Autumn 2011 expands the range with more characters including additional Dalek variants, a Vampire girl (from Vampires of Venice), Roman Rory and Amy in her policewoman uniform.

No word yet on their availability outside of the UK, but many comic stores in the US carry the 5'' figures, so be sure to check in with your local specialist retailers later this year.
