Doctor Who content
Item | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
The Pterrible Pting |
Shoulder accessory | This tiny terror from Doctor Who can eat any inorganic material. Thankfully, however, it won’t eat any organic material (meaning you). |
Portable TARDIS |
Back accessory | Funny thing about this backpack... it’s much, much bigger on the inside. This item is from the Doctor Who collection. |
The Tenth Doctor |
Avatar bundle |
Two legs, two arms, two hands, BIG hair... and sideburns! This bundle is based on David Tennant's character in Doctor Who. |
The Thirteenth Doctor |
This bundle, made of a bit of adrenaline, a dash of outrage, and a hint of panic, is based on Jodie Whittaker's character in Doctor Who. |
