4 out of 5 stars Best ever Xmas present - so far   January 2, 2008
 3 out of 4 found this review helpful

I bought this for my granddaughter aged 7. She loves it! I wouldn't have paid full price for it because the card is flimsy, the build is not secure and it's a real pain to move once constructed but for the amount I paid (12.99) it's excellent value. My granddaughter went back to it time and time again on Christmas Day. I'm glad I also bought figures for her otherwise it would have been a bit of a non-event, it should have included at least one figure for best value. Loved the sound effects.

For 12.99 this is a bargain! I agree that it can be a bit flimsy in it's construction but at such a cheap price and the smiles it generated on Christmas morning i'm more than happy!


5 out of 5 stars Superb playset - My 4 year old boys loves it!!!   December 28, 2007
 5 out of 6 found this review helpful

My four year old son received the Tardis Playset from "Father Christmas" and to quote his words exactly, "this is the best toy that Father Christmas has ever brought me". Praise indeed considering the amount of toys that have come his way during his short four years of life.

Seriously though, I was extremely pleased when I purchased this item for my son for Christmas at the then reduced price of 26. Having seen it in the shops I was already extremely impressed.

Once it was delivered I decided to have a look to see what other customers thought of the playset. My heart sank when I saw some of the poor Amazon customer reviews. Some said that the playset was too flimsy and broke easily while others suggested that it was impossible to move it once assembled without it falling apart. I was gutted and hoped that it wasnt as bad as it sounded.

Having now put it together for my son and seen first hand the enjoyment that he has got from it I have to say that I really had nothing to worry about. I have found no problems with the playset whatsoever. I have picked the playset up from underneath many times now when moving it around and have had no problems with it falling apart. I also found it a joy to put together and found the instructions extremely easy to follow.

Overall I have to strongly disagree with the complaints from other Amazon customers on this product as I have had no such problems. As far as myself and my son are concerned, it is an extremely well made and accurate representation of Doctor Who's Tardis and would make a superb gift to ANY Doctor Who mad child out there (especially for the bargain Amazon price of 12.99!!).



3 out of 5 stars Its the Tardis! Woo!   December 14, 2007

I would agree with most of the comments made by other reviewers. This an incredibly delciate and fiddly thing to assemble. Its also extremely fragile. I would not really recommend this as a child's plaything, it just wont stand up to the rigors of children's play. As a model kit or adult collectable, its fine. Character have done an exceptional job in realising Doctor Who in toy form, and the level of detail and care they put into their product is never more evident than here. I am really pleased with this, especially as its going for the bargain price of 12.99! I would rate it higher, but for Character's intended market its not that suitable.


4 out of 5 stars My son loved this toy!   October 6, 2007
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

I was amost put off buying this toy after reading the reviews but so glad I wasn't. My son got this for his seventh birthday and he was overjoyed. It has the buttons , lights and everything a mad doctor who fan would want. Agreed, it won't stand up to a lot of bashing and I'm not sure I'd pay the 40 that it's priced at in most places, but for under 27 it has to be the ultimate dr who gift!!
