One of the best parts of watching sci-fi is seeing the cool gadgets that we don’t actually have, but given time and ingenuity, might someday. Transporters, hyperdrives and The Doctor’s sonic screwdriver have all been at the top of my list for years. Now, thanks to scientists at the University of Dundee, the sonic screwdriver has become a reality. No, I haven’t been hitting the Romulan Ale. These guys have done it! Their sonic screwdriver is capable of turning objects around with sonic waves and they expect it to prove useful to medical doctors in treating patients. Now, if they can just get to work on jet packs and flying cars we’d all be happy.

This journal is a replica of the dream diary the 10th doctor kept when he used a Chameleon Arch to turn himself into the human John Smith. It’s full of artwork and notes The Doctor made while human and it even comes with a mini sonic screwdriver pen that features a blue light. Fill the journal with your own impossible dreams—which, if you go by my dreams last night, would involve boobs, aliens and Abe Lincoln.

QMx is offering Doctor Who fans an “extremely limited edition” example of the 11th Doctor’s Sonic Screwdriver. As part of the QMx Artisan Master Series, the prop has been completely handmade by Nick Robatto, who has been the prop maker for the show since it rebooted in 2005. Each Sonic Screwdriver takes two weeks to make and consists of 148 aluminum, copper, brass, resin and leather components. Like the example seen on screen, the prop also extends, opens and lights up. The custom-built, lighted display stand features text in the language of Gallifrey, as well as the edition number and Nick Robatto’s autograph.
If you want one of these props, you’ll want to sign up for the waiting list on the product page as soon as possible, as only 25 will be made at a whopping $4000 each.

Previous replicas of the sonic screwdriver used by the 11th Doctor were built as toys or flashlights—this diecast version, on the other hand, is actually built to turn screws.
It features real, reversible Philips and flat-head screwdriver tips and it even lights up and makes sounds when in use. When the project is done, a chamber in the screwdriver’s base can be used for tip storage.
