On Thursday 27 August 2026, Master Replicas and BBC Studios announced the Second Doctor Limited Edition Set, the second release in the Doctor Focus series.
Like the First Doctor set, the Second Doctor collection consists of 15 cards supplied together in a special collector's pack. Each pack is guaranteed to contain the complete 15-card checklist, rather than using a randomised booster format.
The set focuses on the era of Patrick Troughton's Second Doctor and includes characters, locations and monsters associated with this period of the programme. The announced checklist includes:
Jamie McCrimmon
Zoe Heriot
The TARDIS
Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart
The Yeti
The Ice Warriors
The Cybermen
The Dalek Emperor
The War Lord
The remaining cards in the 15-card checklist cover additional characters and monsters from the Second Doctor's era.
A metal Vortex Card is also included as a chase variant within the Second Doctor collection. One in every ten collector's sets contains this card, giving it a stated production quantity of 100 worldwide.
The Vortex Card is not available separately and can only be obtained through the Second Doctor Limited Edition collector's sets. The stated production quantity of 100 makes this a substantially smaller release than the 1,000 complete collector's sets.
The Second Doctor cards continue the visual approach established by the First Doctor Limited Edition Set. The cards use original black-and-white imagery printed onto a silver foil design.
Production of the Second Doctor Limited Edition Set is restricted to 1,000 complete sets worldwide. Master Replicas stated that the collection would be available exclusively through its own distribution and would not receive general retail distribution.
The packaging for the Second Doctor Set remained consistent with that of the First Doctor Set. It consisted of a small box, comparable in dimensions to the cards themselves, featuring an image of the Second Doctor on the obverse and containing a complete base set of 15 cards.
In contrast to the First Doctor Set—where the exclusive Vortex cards were announced post-release and mailed separately to purchasers—the Second Doctor Vortex card was randomly inserted directly into the primary production run. Boxes containing this rare metallic Vortex card could be physically identified by a slight increase in weight and a lack of audible movement when handled. This immobility was caused by the metal card being sealed in its own protective plastic wrapper, which occupied the remaining negative space within the box and prevented the standard cards from shifting.
To honor the television production values of the 1960s, the design team implemented a beautiful, specialized printing method unique to this release:
Monochrome Foil Aesthetics: Every card in the 15-card registry features authentic, original black-and-white imagery seamlessly integrated into a striking, dual-toned white and silver foil card frame.
Worldwide Print Cap: Production was strictly limited to just 1,000 packs worldwide.
Retail Value & Exclusivity: Priced at £24.99, Master Replicas explicitly stated upon launch that these premium box sets are completely exclusive to MasterReplicas.com and will never be distributed to general retail newsagents or hobby storefronts.
