The Eleventh Doctor’s Sonic Screwdriver

The Eleventh Doctor’s Sonic Screwdriver

The Doctor’s multipurpose tool is a Gallifreyan device, with numerous settings, easily controlled at the press of his thumb. The Doctor has had many sonic screwdrivers of different designs throughout his life, and this latest one was created from within the TARDIS console itself after the previous one was destroyed during a confrontation with Prisoner Zero in the village of Leadworth. This new sonic is larger, with a luminous green light but continues to be an essential part of the Doctor’s equipment as he explores the universe. This faithful copy of the Doctor’s trusty Sonic Device has spring loaded extending action. Pressing the button on the side of the handle activates the LED and Sound FX which operates in CLOSED mode. Flip open the cap at the end of the Screwdriver to reveal an additional button that activates the light and sound effects when it is in full extension OPEN mode.

    Apparently the free batteries are just demo batteries and therefore dont work for long causing loss of sound – always try new batteries first peeps

    I bought this yesterday from Toys R Us. Got it home and found that the open jaw light and sound functions (using the hidden red button on the end) didn’t work. Took it back and got it exchanged. Today, the whole sound functions packed in. Took it back and exchaged again. Within an hour, this one developed the same fault as the first one! I decided to get a refund. Three round trips of 20 miles each for nothing.

    When you press the sound fx botton on the sonic 3 times it sounds like a laser and when you do it 4 times the light flickers and the sound stops and starts. There the hidden sounds. They mite be use later on in bthe series. 🙂

    Yes, When its extended there is a button right at the end under the cap which works the sound effects.

    I don’t know exactly how to cancel your order you should have had to create an account so you should be able to log back in and cancel it.

    Got this at Toys R Us for £14.99 today.. I chose this over the Twin Doctor’s Set despite there being both variants sets (exclusive and standard release) because the paint job oon the raggedy doctor is not good at the top under the tie…

    The Sonic is wonderful, it is chunky with a good paint finish and great sound fx with some weird (sounds like lazer star wars gun) occasionally and obviously the LED light

    I like the green tip as it resembles the the blown glass inside the new TARDIS column much like the porcelain effect on the old sonic screwdriver that was on the old TARDIS column.

    Nice one CO! 🙂

    the only internet site that is sellimng it that i can trust is forbidden planet, they have it for 13.50 with 3.00 postage. Not bad really but ill probably get it on monday next week as i ordered it yesterday – not a working day, – its bank holiday today not a working day, and then theyve got 4 days before the weekend to deliver it, i think it was royal mail first class, is saturday a delivery day? cant wait it looks awesome.
