The Collect & Build Figure

The Abominable Snowman - 1967's most iconic monster, reimagined

First introduced in The Abominable Snowmen (1967), the Yeti became such a beloved Doctor Who creature it returned the very next year. Now, for the first time, fans can own a fully articulated, large-scale replica.

Character Options rebuilt the sculpt from scratch — correcting scale issues in a previous version — to deliver the definitive 1967 Yeti: the Det Sen Monastery original, in full Tibetan glory.

  • Over 16.5 cm tall — the biggest Collect & Build figure yet

  • 14 Articulation Points for Posing and Play

  • Layered fur finish: base moulded colour, multiple sprays & washes

  • With hidden costume details including eyes and fangs

  • Completed only by collecting all five Vortex Edition sets

'This set of ‘Vortex' releases for 2026 are the most ambitious thing the Character Team have attempted in a very long time. Everyone that's worked on these fantastic Sets has pulled out all the stops. Plus, we've brought back the 'Collect & Build' format to bring collectors one of THE single most iconic Doctor WHO monsters, the Giant Yeti's from 1967's 'The Abominable Snowmen’.
