Fully accurate character options 15th doctor tardis and doctor variant concept

I’ve been working on concepts for a while now , only now I’ve decided to share them , hope everyone likes :)
Here’s some more 15 figure variants;) first being joy to the world , second legend of ruby sunday and finally the devils chord .Untitled Artwork.jpeg
 
That's just the TARDIS that was released by CO as the 13th Doctor's isn't it? Because sadly they didn't make it fully accurate as the lamp's not quite right and there are no notches on the corner posts.

The CO release is wildly inaccurate. As well as the items mentioned above the roof is wrong (effectively having 4 tiers instead of 3) and the post caps have their own post caps...
 
The roof isn't too bad (apart from the lamp) but the missing cut-outs are a glaring omission, and now I look closer they seem to be re-using 1st Doctor windows with the white frames and the pebbled lower panes. Oh and the lock and handle are in the wrong places.
 
The 1st Doctor-style windows appear to be down to the mock-up image being a tweaked photo of one of the 1st Doctor toys, and some of the details being wrong because of Character's policy for reusing parts where they can.

Here's a photo of the 13th Doctor TARDIS that Character mass-marketed:81+IVZs-aTL._AC_SL1500_.jpg
 
I see the re-used parts on that one mean it lost the extra-wide bottom stile - something that made it more accurate to a Metbox than it's predecessors. But the post notches are possibly the key idiosyncrasy on this version (at the very least it caused discussions here) so it just seem odd to not have them!

Edit: Taking a closer look at the assumed mock-up 15th Doctor version - and to my eye it looks like someone may have photoshopped/stretched the bottom stile to make it wider?
