This promotion included free Doctor Who cards in every box, there were a total of 12. Ty-Phoo also offered a book and wallchart that cost £1 together or 20p for the wallchart alone.

» "Doctor Who - Dalek Invasion of Earth Transfers".
This set was produced by Letraset and was typical of many such transfer kits of the time. On the flip side of the cover there was a scene onto which the owner would place their transfers. This particular item cost 55p when new, easily affordable with most children's weekly pocket money.
