I have these Doctor Who action figures and would like to know what they are.

The first looks somewhat like an Ice Warrior -- perhaps some variety?– Mac CooperCommented Apr 20, 2014 at 14:29

8The first image that alexwlchan posted is a Melkur from the episode "The Keeper of Traken", see bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/classic/episodeguide/keepertraken– HypnosiflCommented Apr 20, 2014 at 14:44

Fixed now. I've added them as pics from OPs G+ account and combined them into a single question.– ValorumCommented Apr 20, 2014 at 16:04

Hypnosifl and Alexwlchan answered first. I'd hate to grab their credit by giving an answer :)– Mac CooperCommented Apr 20, 2014 at 16:34

2@MacCooper - I plan to do exactly that. My answer is a veritable masterpiece of research and accuracy ;-)– ValorumCommented Apr 20, 2014 at 16:35

The "monsters" you've posted are a Melkur and a Sontaran Warrior.
The figures themselves were created by a company called DaPol to cash in on the 1996 Doctor Who film. You can find others in the same series here.
The first one looks like an ice warrior and the second looks like a Sontaran.

What is an "ice warrior"? (I didn't downvote you, btw.)– Rand al'Thor ♦Commented Dec 29, 2015 at 1:23

1@maguirenumber6 Well, that's embarrassing. Back in 2015, I clearly hadn't seen the Cold War episode yet, let alone The Empress of Mars from the new series :-)– Rand al'Thor ♦Commented Jun 26, 2017 at 9:42

It's OK. Anyone who didn't watch the show in the 1960s-70s wouldn't know about the Ice Warriors anyway. Commented Jun 26, 2017 at 11:09
