Ok, not the best episode, but still a favorite of mine. I wanted to share some pictures of the Kettlewell K1 Robot, part of the Doctor Who action figures Classic Series Wave 1, that I acquired compared to my other 28mm Docotor Who miniatures. I think he looks pretty spiffy as the super-sized version of K1 in the last episode of the series. See what you think.

More blather on my blog at the link beow. Cheers.

Like the giant robot. Your own paint jobs are great.

Pictors Studio is to thank for the nie paint jobs. They do great work.

Ah, yes, the robot that grows when disintegrated. A classic. Tom Baker's first storyline, wasn't it?

Fantastic!

Excellent model! Dreadful episode!

Captain Apathy01 Sep 2012 2:26 p.m. PST

Yes, it was Tom Baker's first full episode as the doctor.

Its true that the large robot is on the screen for a few minutes, but you have a full fight going on between it and UNIT.

A possible scenario would be how long can UNIT divert it from destroying the town and rescue Sarah Jane Smith before the Doctor and Harry show up with the bacteria/soap bucket.

I could never get into classic Doctor Who, but that Robot has a lot of charm.

And the episode has the advantage (as I recal) of a Scorpion AFV – easy enough to achive with a die cast off of ebay, I would have thought (and no less convinving than the Action Man one sixth scale item that a BBC technition pushed in front of the cameras for the actual episode!)
