Unlocking your TARDIS is easy, just slide your smartphone into the slot up top, which then activates a pressure switch inside. Launch the app and enter your secret code. The light will blink, the TARDIS will make materializing sounds, and the door will pop open. Just like the real TARDIS.

A talking Dalek (action figure)

“You would make a good Dalek” and “Exterminate” are just some of the phrases that this little plush toy says when activated. Available from Amazon, this is quite a lovely desk gadget to have, who else better to defend your desk rather the most feared villain in Whoverse? Perhaps the Doctor himself.

Doctor Who spinning TARDIS watch

Who doesn’t love the Doc Who intro with the spinning TARDIS and the show’s awesome theme song. Well this watch will help you get that feeling everyday.

“The Doctor Who spinning TARDIS watch is a classic timepiece suitable for any Whovian: male, female, or Alpha Centauran,” says ThinkGeek.

What’s cool is that it features a black imitation leather band, a silver face with the swirling vortex of time-space, and Japanese quartz movement. As the time ticks away, the TARDIS spins around the watch face. Get it? Time, spin, time travel. See. You’re on your way to becoming the Doctor.

River Song’s journal

This is not a gadget per se but it is something that is part of the very fabric of Who. River Song stole our hearts when she shimmied into our lives in the Library. Her journal holds some of the biggest secrets of Who ever, she knows more about the doctor than we will ever know and it is TARDIS blue!
