I'm trying to put together a Doctor Who themed gift basket for some friends, what should go in it?

Nov 14, 2012 2:20 PM

I will probably try and get an action figure of each of their favorite Doctors and of course jelly babies and jammie dodgers are a must but what else should I include?

They have replica Sonic Screwdrivers, consider getting one of those for their favorite doctor.

I remember that the Doctor has had random food cravings after he changes form, maybe prepare a dish that he's eaten?

A pair of Chucks could be good too

I like this poster:

A friend of mine got his girlfriend one of these and she loves it, and thanked him profusely for a couple of days.

A fez, and packed in a TARDIS blue bag perhaps. :)

I have also tapped the fine Doctor Who experts in our Doctor Who thread on Everything But Woot to help out.

Thinkgeek has a LOT of Doctor Who stuff. I'd suggest starting the search there.

And always take a banana to a party. Bananas are good.

@sunnyx0r: I agree with ThinkGeek. They have a ton of Doctor Who stuff. I like the little backpack clips myself

The basket should definitely be bigger on the inside than it is on the outside.

I am a Doctor Who fanatic. Personal favorites from my collection are:

TARDIS USB hub

11th Doctor's Sonic Screwdriver screwdriver

It Came Out of Nowhere- have about 6 including the new on silver

Sonic Scredriver Wii Remote

The TARDIS ornament is nice but very fragile. The TARDIS bobblehead is OK. The remote controller K9 is fun. The stylus for the Nintendo DS (I haven't taken mine out of the package) looks cool.

An Amazon Prime membership gets them free streaming of many old episodes.

TARDIS soap

Psychic Container - but don't get the one from Thinkgeek, it is not the Corsair's as shown, it is the Gallifreyan writing

The TARDIS towel and Salt and Pepper shakers are on my Christmas list for this year.

@inkycatz: Bless you for linking crafts! Doctor Who should be as much about creativity as merchandise.

You should look around for some old paperbacks or annuals, just for fun. I know they're not that good and won't represent the newer doctors (although I've seen some handsome Tennant-era hardcovers at Goodwill), but they have fun covers and will take up space. And annuals are just all-around cool.

I'll second the Exploding Tardis poster by "Van Gogh". It looks nice and only costs $4

How about a DVD or Blu-Ray of their favorite doctors?

I'll second the suggestion of the disappearing TARDIS Mug and cookie jar. The TARDIS Cookie jar is so fun because it makes the take off and landing sounds, but it's hard to sneak cookies.

Here's a page of TARDIS wall stickers: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_4_11?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=tardis+wall+sticker&sprefix=TARDIS+Wall%2Caps%2C185

Also picked up the MadMen take off T called MadMan With a Box from gimmicktees.com. They've got another Doctor T shirt up there right now.

@theoneill555 has perfect suggestions. In fact, everyone here does. I say money is no object for friends. Get them one of everything!

BTW, may I be your friend, too?

@lavikinga: waves Did you ever warm up to Matt Smith?

Did I mention that the TARDIS hub also makes the TARDIS noise when plugging in a device or when pushing the "call box sign" on the front and that the light on top lights up when plugged in?

@theoneill555: Yes, yes I did. It took a few episodes. By the time I hit "Let's Kill Hitler," I was on board. Cried when the Ponds left, but it was time for them to move on and thought this wrapped everything up fairly well. Cried like a fool by the time it was over.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
