Being from the US, I watched Doctor Who on PBS in re-runs. The show always fascinated me and when I started collecting Action Figures, Doctor Who seemed like a natural to collect. I like to get into the back story of my Action Figures. So below is a brief history of Doctor Who.

Doctor Who is an English Sci-fi TV show that is created by the BBC. The show shows the adventures of a mystifying extraterrestrial time-traveler identified as “the Doctor” who travels in his time and space ship that’s called the TARDIS. The TARDIS which usually appears from the outside to be a blue Fifties police box. It is the Doctor’s dimensionally transcendental time and space machine. The journey of a lifetime is certain with each voyage!
With his companions Dr Who explores time and space and solves many problems. He faces an assortment of Adversaries and correcting wrongs.

The show is listed in Guinness World Records as the longest-running Sci-fi TV program in the world and as the most thriving Sci-fi series ever. Innumerable nonfiction books, periodical articles, and websites have been dedicated to the show.

The series has written in cast changes of the main character by having him regenerate into a new incarnation of the same person. All through the numerous incarnations whose adventures have been recorded in detail, The Doctor has shown a range of character quirks, interests, and skills, a number of of which alter, or seem to be gone, from one regeneration to the next. There are, on the other hand, some basics which are universal to all the Doctors. The Doctor has a intelligent, if disorderly, mind. He is keenly fascinated with many subjects, particularly science, history, art and literature. He is voraciously inquisitive, to the degree that he has often endangered himself and his companions in his pursuit for understanding. He is a natural busybody who seems unable of walking away from other people’s troubles.

Some of the Doctors foes include the Daleks who are Genetic mutations housed in armored travel machines, the Daleks are the distillation of all that is wicked in the Cosmos. The Sontarans are a warring clone class from the planet Sontar. Don’t turn your back on them when they are around! And my favorite, the Cybermen. The Cybermen are steel giants with the power of 10 men. A hazard to the Doctor in two universes. Humankind faces an option to either be converted into Cybermen or be exterminated!

Doctor Who’s Companions have included Donna Noble. From runaway bride to space traveler, Donna is trading the nine to five world and is prepared to investigate the Universe. Just don’t presume that she and the Doctor are an couple! And, Captain Jack Harkness the debonair intergalactic rascal and toughened man of action. Also by his side, Rose Tyler who has been from South London to the last part of the earth. We believed she was trapped in a different universe. But she isn’t trapped any more.?

Doctor Who was first produced in early sixties and was meant to be a kid’s program that would combine an thrilling adventure in time and space with instructive subject matter on science and history. But, it quickly became all the rage with adults as well. And it seems like the end is nowhere in site for Doctor Who and his adventures. I like to enter this world with my Doctor Who Action Figures. Each action figure let’s me remember the wonderful stories from the Doctor Who TV Series.

Probably my favorite Doctor Who Action Figure is my Cyberman. Actually, I have several Cyberman Action Figures. They are just so classic Sci-fi and still give me a little scare.

The Cybermen are an imaginary race of cyborgs who are among the most unrelenting foes of Doctor Who. Cybermen were at first a natural species of humanoids created on Earth’s twin planet Mondas. They started embedding a lot of synthetic parts into their bodies as a way of self-conservation. This led to the race being callously rational and conniving. Their emotions are just exhibited when unadulterated hostility is needed.

The Cybermen were dreamt up by Dr. Kit Pedler and Gerry Davis in the mid-sixties. They initially appeared within the serial known as The Tenth Planet. That was the final serial to include William Hartnell as the 1st Doctor. They have since been included various times with their excessive attempts to stay alive through conquest.

Several of the Doctors adversaries are frightening however the Cybermen are foes who keep showing up without suffering the loss of their fright factor. They are sometimes also referred to as men of steel. Their metal structure makes them considerably stronger than the humans that they were created from, in all probability the power of 10 men. The Cybermen have hands like men and are very nimble-fingered and therefore in a position to make use of their power efficiently. The powerful metal frame also aids to safeguard them therefore they’ll confront their adversaries when attacking while not needing protection.

The Cybermen are aloof, brutal robots who seem just about unbreakable. They are determined to take over the universe and continue their own type. The Cybermen’s only weakness is gold rubbed into their respiratory system. Accountable for many a kid’s nightmares, the Cyberman continued their kind through changing individuals into Cyberman through a method referred to as cyber-conversion.

The name “Cyberman” is derived from cybernetics, a expression coined in Norbert Wiener’s 1940’s book Cybernetics or Control and Communication in the Animal and the Machine. Wiener used the term to refer to the management of advanced systems within the animal planet and in mechanical networks. In specific, self-regulating management systems. By the early sixties, doctors were studying surgically or mechanically augmenting people or animals to work machines in space. This resulted in the creation of the term “cyborg” which is short for “cybernetic organism”.

Cybermen are in all probability the most unrelenting opponent of Doctor Who. These are cyborgs that come from Mondas which is the Earth’s twin planet. Synthetic components were embedded in their bodies to be in a position to maintain themselves till they were turned to cyborgs. The Cybermen appeared in Doctor Who many times trying to rule the planet.

The Cybermen’s technology is nearly fully oriented towards arms. When first seen in The Tenth Planet they had massive energy weapons that connected to their chests. In The Moonbase, the Cybermen had two different varieties of weapons. One was an electrical release from their hands, that shocked the target. Additionally, they made use of a giant laser cannon.

Like their “real-life” counterparts, Cybermen Action Figures are very durable. The one thing I appreciate about the ones I have are how they can stand on their own two feet. Even my cat, who knocks down all my figures, hasn’t knocked these guys over. Or, maybe Dr Who the Cat is just afraid of my Cybermen Action Figure collection.

Dalek action figures are a must for any serious Doctor Who action figure collection. Those in the states might not be aware of who the Daleks are though. Here’s a brief Dalek history lesson…

The Daleks are a fictitious race of alien mutations from the UK sci-fi TV show Doctor Who. Daleks are beings from a planet called Skaro. They are incorporated inside a robot-tank-like mechanised shell. The resultant beings are a strong race resolute full subjugation and supremacy, absolutely without compassion, pity or self-reproach. Assorted plot lines present them as having sustained all emotion taken away excluding hatred, giving them with a want to purify the cosmos from all other lifeforms. Only rarely are they depicted as going through additional feelings, like fright, though emotions are uncommon.] Collectively they’re the biggest alien foes of the Time Lord and the Doctor. Daleks most known saying is “Exterminate!”, with every syllable one by one screeched in a mad electronic vocalisation.

The 1st Dalek toy was a Dalek that was battery powered. It came out in the early sixties. Additional toys & merchandise from assorted makers came out the next year, along with action figures of the Mechonoids. The Mechonoids were robot enemies of the Daleks. The Mechonoids were made with the anticipation that they’d get as hot as Daleks, however they weren’t as popular.
