Toy of the Day: LEGO to Make a ‘Doctor Who’ Themed Set
Whovians rejoice!

Anyone can submit a pitch that includes photos and videos of the design, and you need 10,000 supporters to vote for your idea in order for it to move on to the next stage. A review board will then choose which of the top designs will become a legit product.
Past winners have included “Ghostbusters”, a “Back to the Future” DeLorean, and a Minecraft set.
The “Doctor Who and Companions” set was one 6 finalists from an early 2014 grouping where there were actually 3 winners.
The pitch includes 1 or 2 Doctors, a TARDIS, an interior console, K9, a Dalek, 2 companions, a Weeping Angel and a Cyberman.
LEGO also announced that a Wall-E themed set will be produced a the winner from the most recent batch of 8 nominees.
