What is the least popular of the current batch of Doctor Who action figures? If the closing down sales in Woolworths were anything to go by it was the Destroyed Cassandra, a toy which rather looks like the sprue left over when you have finished an Airfix kit.

Sad to see Woolworths go. That Cassndra toy must surely count as one of the worst Doctor Who toy releases ever, up there with the green K-9 Dapol put out…
Harrogate Branch of Woolies had loads of them left too. This was the worst kind of Dr Who merchandise – some Dr Who fans are completists by nature and this piece of tat just exploited tha fact.
Looking at it, it could have made a great photo/ picture frame 😉
