Re: Show your Dr. Who props!
I have bought (via a seller on eBay) one of the 4th Doctor Sonic Screwdriver working metal replicas, which was released as a limited edition run of 800 a few years ago, complete with its display case and original box. Fingers crossed, I am hoping to receive it next week.
One of these days, I’ll lay out all my Doctor Who replica pocket props, my miscellaneous pocket props, and my other related Doctor Who collectables and take some photos.
My Doctor Who LARP and Cosplay props
The Doctor’s affects – replicas and likenesses:
3-D movie glasses (3-D movie glasses, as worn in a cinema whilst watching a 3-D film. The Doctor uses these to observe alternate-dimension residue as well as other time-space phenomena that are not usually visible to the naked eye. Several pairs).
Abacus (Chinese counting device consisting of beads on a frame; one small, pocket-sized brass Abacus two dark green Jade Abacus, and one larger-size, wooden Abacus).
Banana (Bananas are a good source of potassium. This one is from the groves of Villengard. Bananas are good!)
Books; several different types:
"A Journal of Impossible Things" by Verity Newman (a replica of the fictional book from The End of Time episode 2),
"The Time Machine" by H G Wells (1931 limited edition by Random House, the same hardback edition as read by the 7th Dr in the 1996 TV movie series pilot),
"The Doctor's Dilemma" by George Bernard Shaw (the same paperback edition as read by the 7th Dr in "Delta and the Bannermen"),
"Melody Malone" (a replica of the novel that The Doctor reads whilst in New York with Amy and Rory).
Calling card (a homemade replica of the 7th Doctor’s calling card; not entirely screen-accurate, but suitable until I get around to making my own one).
Cricket ball (high quality, red English cricket ball).
Diary, The Doctor's (replica of The Doctor's diary, as used by the 11th Dr; blank pages inside to allow me to add what I want inside).
Etheric Beam Locator (also useful for detecting ion-charged emissions. But in reality, a Varian Klystron VA220 valve used in microwave transmission equipment; one of these was used as the 4th Dr's Etheric Beam Locator in Genesis of the Daleks).
Everlasting matches (waterproof/windproof matches and strikers, being used to mimic the everlasting matches used by the Doctor in some of the novels).
Handkerchief (fancy-looking, cotton handkerchief, in a Paisley style that is remarkably similar to the one carried by the 7th Dr).
Jammie Dodgers (2 replica Jammie Dodgers).
Jelly babies (several bags of the confectionary that is much favoured by The Doctor, as well as a pack of small paper bags).
Juggling balls (multi-coloured juggling balls).
Library card (screen-accurate replica of the Doctor’s Shoreditch Library card).
Loupes (jewellers loupes of varying magnifications, such as 2.5x, 5x, 10x and 12x).
Magnifying glasses (replicas of 1941 Hughes and Son magnifying glasses; two large and two small. They come in their own leather pouches. I also have a couple of more modern style magnifying glasses).
Marbles (a bag of glass marbles, various colours).

Nano Recorder (replica of the gun-type Nano Recorder as seen in the recent series).
Opera glasses, three types:
9th Doctor style Opera Glasses (three pairs; 1800s Fords Theater replica pair, 1941 W Ottway and Sons pair, and another pair of an unknown European origin),
11th Doctor style Opera Glasses (one pair; late 1800s / early 1900s French pair by La Mignonne),
Pen torches (a couple of pen torches that share a striking resemblance to the pen torch carried by the 4th Dr and seen amongst his affects in the story "Genesis of the Daleks". I also have four more pen torches that slightly resemble the 2nd Dr's Sonic Screwdriver).
Playing cards (playing cards).
Pocket watch on a chain (several pocket watches; three plain gold-coloured pocket watches with gold chains, one patterned gold-coloured pocket watch with chain, three “Victoria Penny” silver and copper coloured pocket watches, and several other silver-coloured pocket watches of differing styles).
Psychic paper inside a black passport wallet (a leather replica of the Doctor’s black passport wallet, containing a piece of psychic paper).
Recorder (a replica of the 2nd Doctor's recorder).
Stethoscope (medical instrument, commonly used to listen to heart and lungs, but equally useful for listening to other quiet sounds).
Sonic Screwdrivers, several types:
2nd Doctor Sonic Screwdriver (i.e., pen torches).

Several of the build your own Sonic Screwdriver sets,

TARDIS Food Machine 24 hour food ration - flavoured food bars (I obtained several of these from old Royal Air Force and Royal Navy survival packs. They are packets of 8 qty cubes of flavoured carbohydrate food, such as chocolate and fruit flavours. Vacuum sealed in laminate foil packets, they closely resemble the TARDIS Food Machine food blocks).
TARDIS key on a chain, three types:
3rd / 8th Dr type,
7th Dr type,
Yale-style type, as used by the 9th, 10th and 11th Drs.

Related affects:

Diary, River Song's (replica of River Song's diary, as seen in Silence in the Library; it contains replica pages of notes, photos, drawings and inserts; aged to give it the same appearance as the one in the story).
Other relevant collector's items:
Casio AE-21W Twin Graph ii digital watch (this vintage digial watch is the same make and model as used by SFX artist and props maker, Mike Tucker, for the 7th Doctor's digital pocket watch. I currently have two of these in a working order, which I am keeping as collectables).
Pocket watch on a chain, rabbit hunter design (I have two gold tone pocket watches of the rabbit hunter design. SFX artist and props maker, Mike Tucker, used one of these pocket watches for the case of the 7th Doctor's pocket watch. I also have the silver tone snake pocket watch chain that Mike also used).
Viners Studio salad serving spoons (two sets of salad serving spoons, including two fork spoons of the same type that were used to make the alien-looking spoons "pilfered" by the 7th Doctor in "Time and the Rani").
"Zoids" toy - Saicurtis (this is the same Zoids toy that was used for the construction of the 7th Doctor's very valuable piece of coin collection in "Battlefield". I have one toy built and two still in kit form and in their original boxes).
* * * * *
Non-related affects, but items that the Doctor might pick up on his travels:
ACME whistle with the inscription "TITANIC" (a replica of a whistle used aboard the "Titanic").
Bosuns call (a ship’s whistle. It makes a piercing noise that can be useful for distracting guards or for attracting attention from a distance away).

Compass (a brass coloured compass with an aiming wire in the lid and a retractable magnifying lens).
Crystal minerals (assorted uncut and umpolished crystal minerals, such as Rose Quartz, Citrine, and Amethyst).
Dosimeter (a dosimeter is a personnel Geiger counter. When charged, it can be used to detect levels of gamma radiation. This dosimeter is calibrated to register between 0 to 150 Roentgens. It is shaped like a pen and has a magnifying lens inside it, allowing the user to view the radiation reading. The dosimeter has a clip, allowing it to be attached to a jacket or shirt pocket).
Elcometer 101 (a magnetic gadget that is used to measure the thickness of paint on some metals; this same gadget doubled up as James Bond's bug detector in "From Russia with Love". I thought it might be the kind of gadget the Doctor may have picked up on his travels).
Emergency energy rations (emergency food supplements in tablet form. These food supplements contain the daily requirement of essential vitamins and minerals. The tablets are wrapped in polythene and encased in plastic tubes. 2 tubes containing seven tablets in each; 14 altogether).
Harmonica (two Horner Harmonicas, each with a nice, bluesy, mournful tone!).
Jacks (the classic children’s game; metal jacks are useful to sprinkle on the ground and trip up enemies).
Mini telescope-microscope (children's mini telescope-microscope, shaped like a pen).
Monocular (similar in style and design as the Opera glasses, except the Monocular has only one lens and not two. It comes in its own leather pouch).

Notepad (hand-made, hand-stitched and leather-bound, with a long piece of lace attached to wrap around the pad and keep it closed. It has a lovely old fashioned look).
Novels, Charles Dickens (a selection of pocket-sized copies of Charles Dickens' novels; Oliver Twist, Great Expectations, A Christmas Carol, as well as a copy of the short stories collection which included “The Signalman”).
Spinning top (child’s old fashioned, wooden spinning top; could be used by the Doctor to take simple gravity readings or similar).

Re: Show your Dr. Who props!
Many thanks once again to kursosawa for upgrading my converted 11th remote, had to make a few tweeks in the process but it's awesome!
The marbled emitter is amazing.

Re: Show your Dr. Who props!
Hey guys, I got a few new pieces to show:
Just added a nice wooden yo-yo painted yellow. I know there should be a brand on it but decided against it as I like it blank. There's my Klystron I never posted a shot of aside from the auction shot. My Casio Twin Graph electronics module and the watch I PLAN to put it in and a steampunk sonic. THAT is an Arcane Armory piece I plan to do a full review on. I just wanted to wait to get it to look a bit more aged first.
Here's a closer look at the watch casting:
It's a very fine detailed casting though the gold plating is a bit worn. I want to see if i can get the casing replated at some point.

Re: Show your Dr. Who props!
I got a steampunk sonic similar to that earlier in the year, not the same but similar I think.
I'll try and remember to post a picture sometime.

Re: Show your Dr. Who props!
Might be the same guy if you got yours off of Esty. The one this was based off of had brass scroll work on the grip instead of the leather wrap.
