Robot Santa - Christmas Invasion (2005)

Doctor Who handpainted figurine

A limited edition of only 150

We at Robert Harrop Designs have been creating collectable hand painted figurines for over 30 years and have gained a well earned reputation of high quality and accuracy of detail.  Our extensive portfolio includes Thunderbirds, Camberwick Green, Beano Dandy and 2000AD to name but a few.  A portfolio that is extremely nostalgic and very British, so it was no surprise that Doctor Who would be the next project that we wanted to embrace into our studios!

In partnership with the BBC, we have meticulously hand sculpted a range of 1:12 scale, hand cast and hand painted Doctor Who figurines, each made to strict Worldwide Limited Editions.

As a mark of provenance, each Limited Edition figurine will be numbered with a unique Edition Number and will come packaged in a presentation box with an Information Card and Certificate of Authenticity!

Robot Santa (Roboform)
from ‘Christmas Invasion’ (2005)

"The pilot fish.  The pilot fish mean that something, something, something is coming.”

The newly regenerated Doctor, suffering side effects from his regeneration, crash lands the TARDIS in London.  He exits to meet Jackie Tyler and Mickey, and collapses in front of them.  They take him to Jackie's flat where they put him to bed.  

Waiting for the Doctor to recover, Rose and Mickey decide to go out Christmas shopping where they are attacked by masked Santa robots.  While attempting to wake the Doctor they are attacked again by a lethal spinning Christmas tree. The Doctor wakes suddenly, using his sonic screwdriver to stop the tree.  He tells them that his regeneration has gone wrong and that the energy of his regeneration is luring an unseen foe to him.  The Doctor then passes out again.

The Tenth Doctor refers to the Robot Santas as Pilot Fish, small scavenger fish that swim alongside a larger predator, such as a shark. Attracted by the Doctor’s regeneration, in this analogy, the larger predators are revealed as the Sycorax.
