Doctor Who Action Figure Review: The Fifth Doctor-Peter Davison

I review the fifth Doctor from the first wave of the Classics range while having a good old rant in the process!

Special thanks to Kindle for supplying the music.

Another great review and rant! Bit silly about that decision in my opinion. They could have asked a few of the fans or collectors to see if they wanted celery or not but atleast it came with the Time crash set version. I also noticed that on the 5th Doctor figure's card you can see the celery just behind where it says "The 5th Doctor"!

It was a stupid decision by CO, and that bit of celery on the packet just rubs it in our faces!

Excellent rant...sorry, review! I love the opening titles - very reminiscnet of the Early Years videos. However, I feel I must protest in the strongest possible terms about the below the belt Dapol insult! Surely every Doctor Who fan knows that Dapol's Tom Baker figure was based on the one iconic scene in 'Image of the Fendahl' in which he stands for two minutes at the console with no hat or scarf! Hooray for Dapol!

[batmanmarch]

I love Dapol too! When I was little I didn't care how they looked, they were Doctor Who figures and that was all that mattered! But for the context of my rant I thought it had to slip it in. If CO ever release a classic console room I will make sure to mention the five sided console and when McCoy is released I will note Dapols assortment of umbrella's in every colour imaginable (well at least Dapol's had an umbrella).

I love this music where did you get it from at the loudness

[batmanmarch]

The music is the Latin version of the them as used on the Doctor Who early years videos from the early ninties. The full track was kindly supplied to me by Kindle.

My 5th doctors head cant move at all and now he just looks to the side and i cant do anything about it.

every 5th doctor after the 11 doctors one has had celery

[mintwithahole]

The question you should be asking is why did he wear celery on his lapel in the first place! Great reviews by the way.

[RoninEXS]

Just the sigh at the end bit. You feel the annoyance. Awesome.

@batmanmarch

Matt, did you review the 'Time Crash' version of the Fifth Doctor?

[TheCastellan]

@batmanmarch

Did Peter wear really high pants? I always wondered what was that little bump or ridge in the middle of the sweater there. My grandpa wore pants where the waist part was like just below his chest, so I figured I'd ask. :)

don't you mean the caves of andorzoni 

[pupstudios1]

They're re-releasing him wearing his celery with the Master from Planet of Fire and in the Eleventh Doctors Collectors set with and without hat!
