Doctor Who Experience Preview Merchandise

Doctor Who Experience Preview Merchandise

Thursday 17th February saw the first of three Doctor Who experience preview days before the official launch which took place on the 20th February. Part of the ticket price included various items of merchandise including limited edition prints and souvenirs.

The Souvenir brochure: Like the Doctor Who live equivalent this is a very high quality brochure with an introduction by “The Doctor”. Includes articles on the restoration of props, the Doctors Costumes and a brief history of the Doctors themselves.

The extras: A card holder, credit card sized ” i was one of the first” ticket and neck lanyard

The Cybermen Print: High quality print with certificate ( shown covering the image). Limited to 3500.

The Seal: Each of the main items has an embossed or printed special seal. The one below is embossed onto the Cyberman Print.

The Carrier Bag: The compulsory carrier bag, but this actually plays an important part in the Experience itself!

Exclusive Merchandise: A range of Exclusive Doctor Who experience merchandise will be available shortly.

The Shop:
A few views of the merchandise shop at The Experience showing just a small selection of the items on offer. Most of the series 5 figures had sold out even on the first day. I’m sure fresh stocks will be on sale shortly. The exclusive merchandise has yet to arrive.

dwexpmechextardis3 The Breif: The brief from BBC Worldwide was to create a retail extension of the Doctor Who brand experience.

The Doctor Who Experience promises to be a spectacular event, featuring an exhilarating walk-through adventure, where visitors can step into a full recreation of the Eleventh Doctor’s TARDIS, and an ‘out of this world’ exhibition featuring iconic Doctor Who props and costumes from its 47 year history.

This is the first ever fully immersive Doctor Who attraction – an unprecedented opportunity for fans to step through a crack in time and take part in their own Doctor Who adventure in the role of the Doctor’s companion. Their challenge will be to reunite the Doctor with the TARDIS whilst facing some of the best-loved and most-feared monsters from the hit series, including a Dalek spaceship and Weeping Angels.

The Wifi: The advertised Wifi works successfully giving you a whole load of extra information relating to the monsters and aliens at the Doctor Who Experience and discounts in the shop.

      The DVD’s are expensive, everything else is the sort of price you would expect to pay in a shop anyway – having been to Doctor Who live and have some experience in what people want – they would sell exclusives like T shirts, mugs etc and even previously released figures but in special packaging hand over fist in the shop.

      I dont think so, probably t shirts, mugs, pens – that sort of thing – however as this is a long term exhibition some exclusive figure sets in Experience packaging should have been thought of.

    Wouldint need to go to Doctor Who Experiance now, ive just seen it all from these pictures : D

    I wouldint actually mind going thou, but as far as i know you can only buy tickets online, i am the sort of person who does not trust buying online, cos in many ways it means having to give out like personnal information, credit card details etc, but if you can buy tickets at the Doctor Who Experiance itself that thats great.

    The Sun Newspaper has a pictuee of Matt taken yesterday at the event with his waxwork self which looks older then him…
