Don't get your expectations up December 23, 2008 The Dr. Who Sonic Screwdriver is not very sturdy. The light and sounds are a little cheesy, but it's a kinda neat toy in its own right. It is definitely NOT for little kids, but more for Dr. Who collectors. The play value is limited. The "psychic paper" is comes with is just a little black fold-over vinyl wallet with nothing inside. The UV light on the other end of the screwdriver is fun to play with for a little bit, but it loses it's charm very quickly. It's nice to be able to have a toy from the Dr. Who series, especially if you're a big fan (like me!), but I think they could've done a better job if they just spent a little more time and money.
Vendor very prompt, excellent service. October 30, 2008 Good looking prop, not very functional as a pen. Tip broke first day of use.
my review October 15, 2008 The Dr. Who screwdrivers are great, well worth the money. It's the only tool you will ever need.
Wishing for more quality October 14, 2008 Don't get me wrong here--I love the sonic screwdriver as much as the next fan, but I really wish this toy was made a little better. Real buttons would be nice, and it would be cool if it wasn't so obvious that I was sliding flawed plastic through flawed plastic every time I extended the neck. Also, only one "button" works at a time, one when the head is extended, one when it's retracted. I feel like this product's design could have been improved a lot. Cool to have it, and I'm sure it's much closer to the true design than the flashlight, but I'm tempted to try and create one of my own that's made of more real parts.
Fantastic! September 29, 2008 After watching a few episodes of Doctor Who, how could you not want your own Sonic Screwdriver? Well, this one is decently priced and comes complete with psychic paper. It lights up blue and sounds perfect. It's the same size as the one on the show. It also has a pen built in. Batteries are included. If you're on the fence about getting one, just do it; you won't regret it.
