Doctor Who 4th Doctor Tom Baker Mini Bust

Doctor Who 4th Doctor Tom Baker Mini Bust
Imported from the UK! The Doctor Who Masterpiece Collection from Titan Merchandise recreates the many characters seen over the half-century history of the hit BBC series, Doctor Who! Tom Baker was the fourth actor to take on the role of the Doctor, the enigmatic Time Lord from the planet Gallifrey, and for seven years (the longest tenure of any Who actor), Baker defined the role for all time. Whether teamed with UNIT to battle the Krynoid or working with fellow Time Lord Romana to find the six pieces to the Key of Time, the fourth Doctor was a powerful force in the universe during his long tenure. A bohemian and an eccentric, Tom Baker's Doctor is brought to life in an astonishingly-detailed three-quarter length sculpt that stands 8" tall.
