Doctor Who fans can now get their hands on Peter Capaldi’s new Sonic Screwdriver

Doctor Who - Sonic Screwdriver

Four light modes. Four sound effects. Still can’t break a Deadlock Seal.

After messing about with those Sonic Sunglasses, The Twelfth Doctor FINALLY got a brand new Sonic Screwdriver in season nine’s ‘Hell Bent’.

And now Doctor Who fans can have a faithful recreation of Peter Capaldi’s second Sonic .

It’s the first Sonic Screwdriver to have FOUR light modes and FOUR sound effects, though we imagine it’ll still have trouble with those pesky Deadlock Seals.

“The Doctor has carried many Sonic Screwdrivers of various designs throughout his lifetimes, using the numerous settings on the multipurpose tool to open most locks, detect all manner of deadly rays, read bio-signs, and generate sonic waves of great power,” reads the blurb – and you can do the same (sort of).

It’s on sale now in North America, shipping from the BBC Shop US and Doctor Who Shop US for $29.98, and for $37.98 from the BBC Shop Canada and Doctor Who Shop Canada.

And don’t worry UK fans – it’ll be on British shelves in June and is available to pre-order now for £16.99.

If you order sharpish then you’ll get a free gift of an exclusive pack of three trading cards from the Twelfth Doctor’s limited edition.

Lego Dimensions is the Lego toys-to-life game that sees countless different universes (or dimensions, if you will) coming together for you to play with and through.

To help give you an idea of the possibilities, Warner Bros has released this comedy short to advertise the game…

So that’s The Doctor from Doctor Who, Doc Brown from Back to the Future and Dr Peter Venkman of Ghostbusters mashed (and crashed) together. The references are strong with this one.

The video coincides with the release of the latest batch of LEGO Dimensions toys (wave 3), which include the aforementioned characters, as well as DC villains like Joker and Harley Quinn.

Sonic screwdrivers at the ready, The Doctor may be joining Emmet, Wyldstyle and crew.

A Doctor Who movie might not be arriving anytime soon, but the TARDIS and its owner could soon be materialising on the big screen in a different (and awesome) form.
According to The Lego Movie Sequel director Rob Schrab, Warner Bros are in talks with the BBC to bring The Doctor into the fold alongside Emmet, Wyldstyle and crew.
Scharb revealed the Who news on Community creator Dan Harmon’s Harmontown Podcast (via io9).

Considering The Lego Movie was one big pop culture mash-up – Batman! Ninja Turtles! Han Solo and Chewie! – The Doctor would feel right at home in this world.

Peter Capaldi’s 12th Doctor featured in Lego Dimensions, while an official Lego set is due out on December 1 – just in time for you to re-enact the Christmas special.

The Lego Movie Sequel will arrive on May 18, 2018.

LEGO® Doctor Who Set to Materialise Later This Year

LEGO® Doctor Who Set to Materialise Later This Year

Doctor Who and LEGO® fans around the world received exciting news today as The LEGO Group announced that it would be producing a LEGODoctor Who set.

The concept for a Doctor Who set came from the LEGO® IDEAS website where fans can submit ideas for a set and vote for their favourite idea to be produced.

The BBC launched Doctor Who in 1963 and it is the world’s longest running sci-fi drama. Starring Peter Capaldi as the Doctor and Jenna Coleman as his companion, the hit BBC One show has become a global phenomenon with a loyal and passionate fan base.

The Doctor Who concept from fan Andrew Clark received the 10,000 votes requisite for The LEGO Group to consider it for production.

A licensing agreement between BBC Worldwide and The LEGO Group will see the new set available in all of The LEGO Group’s key markets before the end of the year.

Andrew’s winning design featured a range of Doctors, companions and monsters across the show’s history, but fans will have to wait until later this year to discover what will be produced.

Marcus Arthur, MD of BBC Worldwide UK said, “Both Doctor Who and LEGO enjoy a particularly close relationship with their fans and I can’t wait to see what LEGO produce.”

Emma Owen, UK spokesperson for LEGO Ideas commented: “We’re extremely excited to announce that a Doctor Who and a WALL-E set will be released as our next LEGO Ideas fan based sets, congratulations to the designers Andrew Clark and Angus MacLane!

“After receiving over 10,000 votes from the online community and having gone through rigorous toy testing from our expert panel, these awesome sets are on track to be on shelves later this year. The final set designs, pricing and availability are being worked out as we speak, so watch this space for the final details!”
