LEGO Announces DOCTOR WHO Playset
Doctor Who and LEGO fans should be excited to learn that LEGO will be releasing an official Doctor Who set based on a fan model built by Andrew Clark. Every year, the toy company picks a few new ideas that are voted on that they turn into actual sets under their "Ideas Lego" banner. Previous examples are the Back to the Future Delorean and Ghostbusters Ecto-1. Here's some information from the press release:
Both Doctor Who and LEGO enjoy a particularly close relationship with their fans and I can’t wait to see what LEGO produce.” Emma Owen, UK spokesperson for LEGO Ideas added, “We’re extremely excited to announce that a Doctor Who and a WALL-E set will be released as our next LEGO Ideas fan based sets, congratulations to the designers Andrew Clark and Angus MacLane!
“After receiving over 10,000 votes from the online community and having gone through rigorous toy testing from our expert panel, these awesome sets are on track to be on shelves later this year. The final set designs, pricing and availability are being worked out as we speak, so watch this space for the final details!
