December 6th, 2019 - 12:55pmWARNING: You will not receive the Seven20 Sonic Screwdriver! My mate bought me one for Christmas last year & they sent him the UK Version. He applied for a Refund which was never received. The picture shown is wrong.

December 6th, 2019 - 1:05pmthat’s odd as all their stock is USA sourced, and if you order stuff online and its not as advertised you can send it back for refund and postage costs so they should not have put up with it.

December 6th, 2019 - 9:22pmWell I hate to call them liars, but my mate was sent the UK Version which I saw before he returned it to them & which they never gave a Refund for. I carefully checked the FUN.CO.UK (UK) Website after this & it clearly has no mention in the Product Description about it being the Seven20 Version. If you then look at the FUN.COM (USA) site it clearly mentions it is the Version with the Rotating Head.

December 7th, 2019 - 8:51amthe product codes and item dimensions are identical and we know the character one is much larger.
I am in contact with them over this as i know people have bought them, if you give me the order number i will take it up with them, no way would i send something back and then put up with not getting a refund (assuming their returns procedure was followed)

December 7th, 2019 - 11:00amWell that’s very kind of you Booboo. I did mention this awhile back on one of the Fun threads. I contacted my mate about this & as it’s nearly a year past he’s let it slide. He tell’s me that he no longer has the paperwork for it. Personally if it had been my Order I would have followed it up myself. I did nag at him for ages after Christmas last year, but other people do things in their own way!

December 7th, 2019 - 6:33pmFun have got back to me, as you have left the comment about them not giving a refund on a returned item they want to look at what happened but need more details. They are also looking into how it is the Character version is being supplied as they supplier is listed as Underground toys (seven20) who have never imported the Character version

December 7th, 2019 - 9:17pmAs I said, if it was £20 of my money I would have chased it up. So I can’t understand why he didn’t, considering he also sent it by Recorded Delivery? Can’t believe he didn’t make any effort on this, as he still had to go out & buy me the US Version elsewhere early in Jan 2019 after Christmas. I keep all my receipts & paperwork for any Dr Who Merch that I buy. Other people do things in their own way though, sometimes to their own detriment!

December 6th, 2019 - 11:54amTBH, replacing the Christmas Fairy with a fictional malevolent killer from the Dr Who universe doesn’t really feel appropriate … 😀

December 6th, 2019 - 12:33pmAt four or five years old, my daughter referred to the angel on the top of our tree as a Weeping Angel when it wasn’t a weeping one – just the usual kind. Which amused me!
