- It’s Who-Time!
Today we’re talking custom Doctor Who figures: I’ll give you some tips/advice on how to make them plus alternative options if you’re less keen on customising yourself but still want to build your collection.
In short, it comes down to 2 categories: DIY or Buy. DIY involves kit/figure bashing, tooling, milliput and 3D prints. Buy simply entails buying customs off people who create them. I have a few recommendations.

Thank you for the praise, and linking to all my shops and channel! Some really great tips in this video!
You deserve the promotion!
Thanks for the shout out. Always love seeing what people do with my designs.
No worries! You do amazing work; keep it coming 🤗
Great stuff! I also keep any 'props' that come with similar scale figures - a lot of Japanese 'Artificial Human' type figures often come with spare limbs, and little greeblies like cell phones, tablets, and laptops. Scratch building gadgets (the sort that go 'ding!' when there's stuff) for 5.5" figures, is also fun. Having seen the pictures you showed, I'm sorely tempted to order some Voord and Sensorite figures. Rightly or wrongly, I always thought these guys were cool. I mean, if anything sinister were to be found hiding under a bed - it would be a Voord. Even the name is unsettling. Also, I always loved the story 'The Fishmen Of Kandalinga' from the first Doctor Who annual. It's short, clever, and creepy, and (Very) possibly written by David Whitaker.
Super video from the most laid back person I know 😂😂😂, can't wait for the next one 👍👍👍👍
Had that t shirt, love your chanel been waiting on this video for awhile thank you so much
I made the 3rd doctor from plant of the spiders and the custom that you done are amazing Well done
Does the third doctor head need a lot of modification to work for that custom?
WOW! And I thought I already had a wish list of figures I wanted! Those customs you showed had so may figures I never knew I wanted! Who would have thought of the Foamasi as being a good idea for a figure? I loved all the figures!
Clever boy, I love your figures. I have almost every figure released since the line started back in the mid 2000s. I want a Sarah Jane with her Namby Pamby outfit. Super jealous of your Yeti. You are talented.
KIT BASHING oh.. that sounds a bit wrong i mean FIGURE BASHING love your content man
I'd love to see your top 10 best classic who stories as you haven't really shared your opinions too much
That's nice of you to ask. I was thinking of doing something like that. My favourites are probably not the same as everyone else's to be fair. I'll get round to it eventually. Got a few other vids in the pipeline at the mo.
this is just whats needed, and i just found it ,,your done a great job on this one so interesting ,accouple of the links did not seam to lead were there meant ,but maybe just a bad day,
i do have a few i need to remove the heads from but how do i tell what type each one is ? Harry, gelth zombie,and a silurain if yourself or someone else is able to help out
would be very much appreciated
Thanks for watching. I've now updated the broken links; the video is 3 years old after all! You can tell which head type it is by simply pulling on the head and seeing what happens. If you see a peg appear under the neck or if it pops off, then you know there's a body peg that the head plugs onto. If it feels tough to get off and you can see an extended narrower bit of neck, then you know the head has a plug at its base. Off the top of my head, the Gelth has a plug at the base of its head, Harry doesn't and plugs onto the peg on the body. Not sure on the Silurian.
Do you have any recommendations of paint colours for the Yeti? I have just ordered one from 3D Rapid Print :)
I Made A First Doctor With Cow Boy Hat From The Gunfighters!
Great video, very informative! I've been having trouble separating the torso from the legs, is there a trick to it or do you just pull and hope nothing breaks? Thanks!
That’s a tricky part. Unfortunately, it’s not a simple boil and pull out. You’ll need to separate the front and back parts of torso section; prise them open with a Stanley knife. The difficulty is doing this without damaging other parts of the figure that you need. If you need pics, message me on Twitter.
I would love to make a 1:1 scale troll droll from terror of the Austin’s
Great tips and food for thought - any advice on the best glues to use? Plastic-friendly super glue or an epoxy-based glue?
Not an expert on glue. Usually I just use various versions of Loctite super glue. Gorilla epoxy resin glue I use for tougher job but that's more for props and costumes.
Amazingly Informative I love this
I by it all
WOW
Any advice for someone looking to start their collection? Would I be better off buying official stuff first and maybe do a custom figure purchase once a month or so once it starts building up? (I’m useless when it comes to art so there is no way in hell I’ll be trusting myself with custom on my own)
Thats Awesome bro. Love Doctor who Been a Fan from 1980 my local PBS tv showed Tom Baker first . being an 80's Kid Peter Davidson was my Doctor But love them all. your doing Great Work here . do alittle on Vintage Star Wras Figures. wish i could find The Dctor who figures Here in the States. all the best . hit me up wanna chat Doctor who :)
How can people dislike this?
I have no idea! It’s not designed to be offensive. Haters gonna hate I guess.
They will indeed! People find ways to be offended by anything these days!!! You are a legend my friend!
how much would it cost to have a yeti 3d printed?
It was £50 for me a year ago but it may have changed. Also depends on the amount of fill you want (i.e. how thick the plastic is). Probably, best to get quotes from a number of companies.
@@who-time thanks
can you use air dry clay on the figures cause ive just bought air dry clay cause i cant find milliput
You can order Milliput off Amazon for £6 a pop. www.amazon.co.uk/Milliput-Mill-Pack-Standard-Yellow/dp/B001OBBTMW
No idea about air dry clay. Never tried it.
I use polymer clay and that works fine for me
i'm gonna feature your channel it's too good to be true
Fantastic! I'm tweeting this out and placing a link on my deviant art page. Time-lord-rassilon on deviant art. That should get some more views here. Great job! Love the tips!
Cheers, glad you like it and want to promote it! Much appreciated.
Do you make customs to sell I'm looking from Barbra but carnt get them eny where
NDW Design will be selling a Barbara head soon on his Etsy. More details are on his Facebook group: facebook.com/groups/415772119725548/
Wish my paint drawer was as neat as that...
Rob! Like the promo?
Very kind of you, ta. :)
Ur deffo a who person when do u recon the next history of the daleks will be released???
How much roughly does Rob White charge for each figure?
Varies from £50-£100 per figure. Not cheap but it’s superb work.
Earned a sub from me 👍
How much dose the guy on Flickr charge for one figure
I was thinking of trying to contact him
@@normal-guy between £50-£100 per figure depending on which ones you choose.
Thx
A while ago someone commented on your wheel in space cyber man I'm the son and both figured have been fixed
@@normal-guy Good to hear! Sorry it didn’t work out. Take care in future & thanks for watching.
Could you do videos on actually customising the figures
I have one lined up for a Wheel in Space Cyberman on Monday actually. So keep an eye out for it.
Who-Time, cool thanks 👍
