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.
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.
Left: Tardis shaped display unit to promote the Character console playset. It had a made up set on display in the top of the unit.
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 gallery: Our pictures from the Exhibition, there are no “experience” spoilers in the images but if you want to go unspoilt for the exhibits then dont look!

February 26th, 2011 - 4:27pmBooboo, What did you think of The Doctor Who Experience?
booboo
February 26th, 2011 - 4:31pmWe thought it was really good, like may others we though the Angel part was a bit rushed and it didn’t seem to do a lot and it was disappointing there was no exclusive merchandise in the shop but overall it was well worth it.

February 26th, 2011 - 2:38pm…another comment.

February 26th, 2011 - 2:37pmCarrying on from my previous comment
If you don’t want spoilers for The Doctor Who Experience then don’t read the rest of this comment!
For example with the Weeping Angel bit it was basically a hallway where there were weeping angels. So not only was that quick to walk/run (what would you do if there were weeping angels all around you? 😯 ) through the corridor but it was really dark really. So I could hardly see anything. I hardly saw any weeping angels. And also the TARDIS bit I felt was very short as well.
I’ll continue in…

August 13th, 2011 - 10:11pmI didn’t see anything in that bit. I knew it was weeping angels though coz all the don’t blink stuff.

February 26th, 2011 - 2:25pmI went to The Doctor Who Experience yesterdaty with my mum. We got the Gold tickets. The Experience itself wasn’t as I expected but I still really enjoyed it! 😀 We spent around 3 hours in there. Looking at all the exhibits and stuff.
If you don’t want spoilers if your going or not to The Doctor Who Experience then I’d suggest not looking at the rest of this comment!
I was also expecting the exprerience to be a bit longer but I still really enjoyed it! 😀 Some bits however I found too quick.
-I’ll need to carry on in a different…

February 24th, 2011 - 12:43amMy son and I visited on Monday and had a super time, Many thanks for the interactive section, Matt Smith was awesome and extremely funny trying to direct us through it, My son loved looking at the different Doctors costumes and we didn’t blink when faced with the Weeping Angels. Really enjoyed the whole experience and might even go again in the summer. A brilliant start to the half-term holidays. http://merchandise.thedoctorwhosite.co.uk/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif
