Doctor Who Gift Ideas

Gifts for Doctor Who Fans

My middle niece (and goddaughter) is an avid Doctor Who fan which led me to looking for a variety of Doctor Who gift ideas in the lead up to last Christmas. I came across a number of cool gift ideas which is why I decided to help out anyone else who has to buy for a Doctor Who fan.

There are certainly a lot of different gift ideas to suit a range of different age groups as well as price ranges from Tardis coffee mugs, to figurines, Doctor Who t-shirts, books on the series ..... there really are a lot of ideas so let's start looking at them in detail. I've explained what I like about a few of the choices and then I've compiled a few more ideas further down so that you're covered whether you're buying for a younger fan or an older fan.

There are Doctor Who fans who fell in love with the Doctor decades ago and still say 'Exterminate, Exterminate' when talking Daleks, who apparently aren't very scary these days! Then there's the fans from the new Millennium who have the advantage of our far more advanced special effects, costume and props departments! On with the gift shopping and enjoy....

Where's The Doctor? - The Best Book Ever!

A Where's Waldo Style Doctor Who Book

This is a book I brought for my 13 year old Doctor Who fan for Christmas. She loves games as well so I thought she'd enjoy finding the Doctor and all the other characters in the book. I also had to get something that could be easily posted as we were celebrating Christmas in different countries.

Doctor Who: Where's the Doctor?
My mum said the reaction was fantastic as my niece had apparently declared that it was 'the best book ever.' I was really happy with that even though mum was a little annoyed as she'd gone to a lot of trouble to get a book that had actually been requested just to be usurped by me!

The fact that this book features the 11th Doctor along with his assistant Amy Pond was another factor in me choosing this for my niece as he's her favorite Doctor.

Doctor Who Tardis Gift Set

This cool gift set features what they're calling a tin tote which is basically a tin lunch box that looks like a Tardis. Now what I would've given to have this as my lunch box when I was still in school - I would've be the coolest kid at the lunch table!

Inside the box are four Doctor Who drinks coasters along with a Tardis designed travel mug.
This gift set was released at the San Diego Comic Con and are officially licensed collectibles.

Doctor Who Takes Afternoon Tea!

Now one of the gifts that I'm thinking of for my niece is a Tardis Mug along with her favorite hot chocolate and maybe a cookie jar - it was just unrealistic last Christmas because of postage.

I first saw the Tardis cookie jar and mug in a local shop, but it wasn't until I checked online that I discovered you could even get a Tardis tea-pot. These three gift ideas are absolutely fantastic and I know just the person who would love the Tardis tea pot as they collect tea pots and used to enjoy Doctor Who when they were younger.

This does rather beg the question - what type of cookies would the Doctor want in his cookie jar? My niece is sure to to tell me double choc chip as they're her favorite, but..

Doctor Who Board Games

I love giving my nieces board games as it gives them all something to play with together and they do enjoy playing board games. I love it when the extended family gets together as we usually manage to play a few board games - they're great for the kids to learn from as well as being a great bonding activity for us all.

I've found a couple of special edition Doctor Who board games which look great.

Doctor Who Micro Figures

The Eleven Doctors Collection

There are lots of different Doctor Who figurines available, but this particular collectors set is a nice gift idea as it features all eleven Doctors in a Tardis display box. It's relatively inexpensive (compared to some collector figures) which means that they can either be kept for display purposes only or can also be used in imaginative play.

Doctor Who The Eleven Doctors Micro-Figure Set
This set is now out of date of course as we have a 12th Doctor, but at the time this would have had pride of place on my niece's shelf and I still think it would be appreciated.
I haven't seen an undated set available at the time of writing, but I'm sure you'll be able to add the 12th Doctor when you find him........and let's face it we all know that eventually there will be a 13th and then 14th Doctor to add anyways.

Bathrobes for Geeks

Bathrobes that Geeks Will Love

These bathrobes are perfect for the geek in your life from superhero bathrobes to a Jedi bathrobe, Star Trek bathrobes and more. These bathrobes certainly wouldn't look out of place on any of the characters from The Big Bang Theory so fans of this show might enjoy some of these selections as well.

I think everyone deserves a nice bathrobe and if you can find one on someone's favorite character or hobby then you're off to a great start. I know many self confessed geeks who would love these bathrobes, the only problem comes with deciding which one they like the most!

Let's have a look at the bathrobes I've compiled for your favorite geek, although I should let you know that even non-geeks could enjoy some of these bath robes.

Superhero Bathrobes

Superheroes are loved by everyone, but the geek in your life will have quite a few of his own thoughts with regards to his favorite superhero. You only have to listen to an episode of The Big Bang Theory to realize that identifying your superhero is nothing, those television geeks take it to a whole new level!

For all of the superhero robes that I've been able to source check out this page - Superhero Bathrobes.

If you know their favorite superhero then you'll want to get them that particular robe, but I have to say that superheroes are only as good as the villains that they're up against which is why I love that I've managed to source a Joker bathrobe for anyone who enjoys Batman.

Feel The Force & Boldly Go Where No Man Has Gone Before

Star Wars and Star Trek Bathrobes

I enjoyed the Star Wars movies, but I loved the classic Star Trek television series and it appears that geeks are divided on the merits of each of this sci-fi franchises let alone the individual Star Wars movies and Star Trek series from original series through to Deep Space Nine.

Luckily it doesn't matter which you prefer you can get bathrobes to celebrate and if you don't like either we also have Doctor Who bathrobes available.

Star Trek Bathrobes

A Bathrobe That Can Boldly Go Where No Man Has Been Before!

If your inner geek is also a Trekkie (or you're buying for a Trekkie geek) then these bathrobes are perfect, all you have to decide is whether you're Captain Kirk, Spock or Scotty.......... yes you can get all of the different colors with these Star Trek bathrobes.

Star Trek Adult Captain Kirk Fleece Costume Bath Robe
These officially licensed Star Trek Bathrobes are available in the gold Command color (think Captain Kirk), the blue Science color (think Spock) and the red Security color (think Scotty).

They are all made of 100% polyester fleece (which means they're very warm and comfy) and have the Star Trek insignia on the chest.

Absolutely awesome gift idea for any fan of this classic sci-fi series.

Of course some people prefer the Next Generation Star Trek instead of the original series and if that's the case then we've got you covered! I've also found a woman's Star Trek robe, although to be honest the 'so-called' men's robes are, in my opinion, really unisex!

Star Wars Bathrobes

The Force is Strong with These Bathrobes!

If you're a Star Wars geek then you'll love the selection of bathrobes I've found for you here and there are certainly lots to choose from including a Jedi bathrobe, Chewbacca bathrobe, R2-D2 robe and many more. Let's explore the plethora of Star Wars bathrobes available to buy online.

With so many cool Star Wars bathrobes to choose from it's hard to know where to begin so we're going to go in alphabetical order starting with the infamous Darth Vader himself -

Star Wars Darth Vader Hooded Unisex Robe
This Darth Vader bathrobe would be great for my hubby as he has the 'Luke, I am your father,' routine down pat, but to be honest it would probably drive me nuts if he said that every morning.

Luckily his Yoda impersonation is just as good and I prefer it so a Yoda robe it might have to be!

Jedi Dressing Gown - Star Wars Bath Robes
This Jedi bathrobe is made from a soft 100% polyester and when you put the hood up it is so warm and snuggly you'll never want to take it off!

Even if it wasn't a Jedi robe a long and hooded robe is always a cozy choice especially in the middle of winter!

Star Wars R2D2 Hooded RobeStar Wars Stormtrooper Hooded RobeStar Wars Master Yoda Unisex Bathrobe

Doctor Who Bathrobes

The Ultimate Time Lord is Simply Known as The Doctor

If you prefer the British sci-fi television series to the big Star Wars and Star Trek franchises then you'll be happy to know that you can get bathrobes to celebrate this as well, after all it has been followed eagerly by fans around the world for fifty years!
