Toys and Games Reviews of Doctor Who Sonic Screwdriver
Customer Review: A dollar a minute.
Summary: 3 Stars
While I love Doctor Who, and love the feeling of holding this screwdriver, I have one major complaint with this product. I paid twenty dollars for it (thats not the problem). THe problem is when you pay for this, you're going to get a minute of battery life for every dollar you spend. I dont know if this is a generic problem, but the battery life is pathetic at best, lasting about 20-25 minutes. If it werent for the fact that I'd have to replace the batteries every half hour, id give this and the psychic paper a perfect rating. If anyone has a solution to this problem, I would love nothing more than to hear it.
great prop, terrible battery life.

The Dr. Who Sonic Screwdriver is not very sturdy. The light and sounds are a little cheesy, but it's a kinda neat toy in its own right. It is definitely NOT for little kids, but more for Dr. Who collectors. The play value is limited. The "psychic paper" is comes with is just a little black fold-over vinyl wallet with nothing inside. The UV light on the other end of the screwdriver is fun to play with for a little bit, but it loses it's charm very quickly. It's nice to be able to have a toy from the Dr. Who series, especially if you're a big fan (like me!), but I think they could've done a better job if they just spent a little more time and money.Customer Review: Wishing for more quality

Don't get me wrong here--I love the sonic screwdriver as much as the next fan, but I really wish this toy was made a little better. Real buttons would be nice, and it would be cool if it wasn't so obvious that I was sliding flawed plastic through flawed plastic every time I extended the neck. Also, only one "button" works at a time, one when the head is extended, one when it's retracted. I feel like this product's design could have been improved a lot. Cool to have it, and I'm sure it's much closer to the true design than the flashlight, but I'm tempted to try and create one of my own that's made of more real parts.Customer Review: Great for collecters and Fans

I have had my Dr who sonic screwdriver for over a year and it has held up nicely. be careful of the screw cover it likes to come off in pockets sometimes. in has two sounds from the show and it be extended unlike other sonic screwdrivers out there. the ink tip won't last long but if you mail it to the address in the manual they will send a replacement that will like just as long as the first. I like the psychic paper wallet that comes with it even though its not paper but plastic you can use the UV ilk tip to write messages on it and use the screwdriver light to read it again and the wipe to write another messages.Customer Review: This thing makes me smile everyday!

Yeah, I'm a thirty-something kid still stuck in her childhood years... <Sigh...> But when I saw the Sonic Screwdriver for sale, I HAD TO HAVE IT! And I'm so glad I bought it! The sound on mine is pretty darn good, but I do wish the light was a bit brighter. The Psychic Paper erasable "pad" is a lot of fun too when you write messages in the invisible ink. I take it to work and write stuff about my co-workers when they tick me off - and they're none the wiser. If you're a true fan of the series and love stupid little gadgets that bring a smile to your face - this is a must have.
