About this deal

Is it just me or does this Seven20 one look more like a prototype picture than COs, which looks more like a proper photo? I still can’t see the logic in them being different, biggest difference I can see is that the screw-holes are on different sides.

Thirteenth Doctor Who Sonic Screwdriver for Plush Toys

We can’t make judgements just yet, because we haven’t actually seen the CO one in action yet, maybe it does have the spinning crystal (which I think it does), maybe it’s more accurate, maybe it looks better in hand, maybe it has more SFX and is a better toy than the Seven20 version, we can’t yet tell. It does look cool and I really want one (though I have to wait for a while). It’ll be interesting to see a comparison of this one and the CO version when both are released.Also thinking about this, there isn’t anything that said these will be a limited release and they’re bound to be popular so logic suggests that whilst getting hold of one in the UK might be a little pricey I don’t think it’ll be difficult…they’ll surely churn out quite a few of them From the promo photo above, it looks like Seven20 have managed to hide the screw holes making this one superior to CO. I can’t wait to see comparison videos on YouTube. The Friend…. No…. they are not the same product! VERY DIDFERENT when you see them in person. Also… notice the 2 buttons on this one?? Hmm? Character Options Only has the 1 button. Paint is different. And they’re are other things noticeable in person. I don’t think they hide the screw holes on purpose since it looks like the Doctor just makes this on the fly with what she has laying around. I don’t know. They look interesting. Still debating if I’m going to buy one today! I wonder if CO can sell their toys overseas? Probably, cause FPI doesn’t say anything about being UK only. If not, and both Seven20 and CO are restricted to their own countries, that’s going to be a problem for me and anyone else outside of the UK or US. seven20 will only have a licence to supply to USA retailers and i expect they tell retailers they can only sell to the USA, this is common with many ranges, some retailers have ignored that in the past though but something tells me they will a lot stricter now

This sonic screwdriver would later be inherited by The Fourteenth Doctor, who would make use of it during the 1966 Dalek invasion of Earth. GIFT FOR HIM, Couples Keychain, Dr. Doctor who Time Lord Companion Key Chain Handstamped Two Hearts Police Box Sonic Screwdriver Designer Arwel Wyn Jones talked through the new sonic; “It’s a privilege to have been asked to redesign the iconic sonic screwdriver for the Thirteenth Doctor and a new generation of audiences. I can’t wait for people to see how the Doctor acquires it!” It’s just a shame that it’s going to cost more for UK based fans, as we’ll only be able to get it either second hand or imported. As we know from watching the Doctor Who Series 11 Trailer, there’s a new female Doctor and of course she has a new Sonic Screwdriver. Have a replica of your very own with this Dr. Who: Thirteenth Doctor’s Sonic Screwdriver.the official images we have been sent by BBC Studios clearly show the CO and seven20 sonics are different in many different ways cyberman Bill, they both have the two buttons… they’re the same product. I’m not sure why you’re all trying to claim they’re the same thing. If you had seen them in hand as I have at SDCC (I was in the Hall H presentation), you’d know.

It shows there are loads of screw holes on the other side of this version of the sonic as well. I guess Seven20 just chose not to show them in the promo shots unlike CO. The US and UK toy versions of the Sonic Screwdriver have been created by Seven20 and Character Options, respectively. The new, electronic 8” collectible is a perfect replica of the Doctor’s device, features a light crystal and has two buttons which control the light and sound elements of the SonicProp designer Arwel Wyn Jones talked through the new sonic; “It’s a privilege to have been asked to redesign the iconic sonic screwdriver for the Thirteenth Doctor and a new generation of audiences. I can’t wait for people to see how the Doctor acquires it!” The new electronic 8” piece from Character Options is the perfect replica of the Doctor’s most trusted device; fully lighting up when activated and featuring brand new diagnostic sound FX. I would say this seems very unlikely but given the past links between CO/UT and the fact that UT has now become S20…it doesn’t seem THAT far fetched The Sonic Screwdriver is the ever present accessory of the legendary Time Lord, and since the regeneration at the end of 2017, Doctor Who fans across the globe have been awaiting the announcement of a replica collectible Sonic Screwdriver by Character Options. It makes me wonder if similar to how CO used to make all the classic figures that were sold under the UT name perhaps this is the same thing with CO making the sonics but S20 just using their own branding to sell it in the US?

Keep collections to yourself or inspire other shoppers! Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections—they may also appear in recommendations and other places.I just discovered that Seven20 is what Underground Toys became, which leads me to wonder if there is any truth in the sonics being the same? This Sonic was far simpler in appearance than the previous screwdriver with a simple steel body made from melted spoons, and a crystal on the tip that glowed amber while in use, taken from a Stenza transport chamber.
