Saxon kicks off series 7 of his toy reviews with a look at some of the Doctor Who merchandise which was produced by Character to fill the gap in the market left by the space between The Doctor, The Widow and The Wardrobe and Asylum of the Daleks…
Particularly the Personalise your Sonic Screwdriver set, and its alleged “expansion pack”, the Trans Temporal Sonic Screwdriver. Neither have appeared in the show despite many fans arguing that they will eventually.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
