"If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first create the universe."

--Carl Sagan

What do we consider to be the must-haves of Doctor Who prop building?

Obviously the TARDIS Police Box in varying scales and dimensions is quite popular. 

The Daleks are a fan favorite.

Cybermen make their presence known.

K9 is an affirmative.

The Tardis Console is desirable.

Sonics are cool.

Bessie would be a treat to own.

Some of us get by with just a Scarf.

Because the dimensions of our storage spaces are < ∞ a 1:1 Universe is difficult to obtain.

I know there are a few who have dedicated their collections to "one of each" of story related props.

Admit-ably is is nice to have something you can show to your friends and a hand held item is much easier to carry next door.

Despite the pacifism of the Doctor many people collect Sci-Fi weapons such as the Tissue Compression Eliminator ... etc.

I've tried to add to the http://tardisbuilders.com/index.php?action=proplist;sa=tree to give the builders options.

MASTER: I suppose what we're really asking, my dear, is, well
MISSY: Any requests?
why doesn't the Guide mention them? - Oh, it's not very accurate.
Oh? - I'm researching the new edition.

Well, I just found this thread & thought it deserved more responses...

Sitting here in lockdown, with lots of time on my hands, I thought I'd bump this thread & add my own bucket list top 5....

1)  TARDIS exterior (tick)
2)  TARDIS console (A wish still to be realized...but one day, my beauty...)
3)  Dalek  (tick times 2!)
4)  K-9 (tick)
5)  Scarf (tick times 5!)

These things sing Dr Who to me, just like a rainy Saturday afternoon....

Would love to see anyone elses top 5's or 10's if anyone else fancies a punt....


Regards,

Russell

1) TARDIS console (Check)
2) 4th Doctor Sonic Screwdriver (Check)
3) Non sonic screwdriver (and non weapon) hand prop from every classic Doctor (check, more than one for most)
4) Davros bust (Check)
5) K-9 (Not enough space, but maybe someday)

Honorable mention
A) All classic Doctor costumes ( 3 out of 8 )
B) Davros chair and dummy to mount bust to make a full size Davros figure (Not likely, never enough room for everything!!)
C) TARDIS toolkit with tool box (All tools complete!! Considering options for a replica box)
