Cool Dr. Who Themed Gift Ideas for Your Sci-fi Geek

Carly Hart
Looking for the perfect gift for a "Dr. Who" fan? These gift ideas are fun and affordable options for the sci-fi loving "Dr. Who" fan on your Christmas list. Each item listed in this holiday gift guide costs under $50.00 and is available here in America.

Sonic Screwdriver

If only getting out of perilous situations were as easy as using Dr. Who's sonic screwdriver. This handy and collectible screwdriver is a nice gift for any "Dr. Who" fan. Currently, Think Geek is selling the sonic screwdriver for the 11th Doctor, Matt Smith. A nice prop, it would easily fit into a stocking, and the gift recipient can hang on to it for next Halloween when they can dress up as a new Doctor. Approximate cost: $25.00.

Dr. Who Cookie Jar

This Tardis Cookie Jar likely holds more cookies than meets the eye. The blue police box holds cookies or other goodies and, if you push down the lantern, it will make the Tardis noise that "Dr. Who" fans will recognize instantly. Your geeky gift recipient may even exclaim, as a Dalek would, "You must be exterminated!" as he or she reaches in to snag a snack. This item is available at Amazon.com. Approximate cost: $35.00

Dalek Alarm Clock

Also available at Amazon.com is a Dalek alarm clock. This LED alarm clock will wow your "Dr. Who" fan with four Dalek phrases, including "You would make a good Dalek" along with "You must be destroyed!" This cool clock might be better for older "Dr. Who" fans since being woken up with "Exterminate!" might be a little too much for a youngster. Approximate cost: $18.00.

Dr. Who Mouse Pad

Any "Dr. Who" fan would get the humor behind the Doctor2 Mouse Pad for sale at Zazzle.com. This black mouse pad will let everyone know that they love "Dr. Who" in a way that only a fan would understand. The black mouse pad features the word "I" followed by two red hearts, then "the Doctor" and retails for approximately $15.00.

Netflix

"Dr. Who" fans love to watch old episodes of their favorite show. They'll watch any "Dr. Who" episode that they can find, which makes Netflix an ideal gift for a "Dr. Who" fan. Past seasons are available via Netflix streaming, while some are still on DVD only. Streaming and/or one-at-a-time DVD plus streaming subscriptions can be given for less than $10 per month, plus tax.

Amazon.com carries a surprising selection of "Dr. Who" themed gifts, as does Think Geek. For best selection, you can shop www.doctorwhogear.co.uk, but just be aware that you will need to contact them directly to ascertain an accurate shipping charge and you'll need to allow extra time for shipping.
