- Always popular on CZcams are "Collection Tours" and so here is a presentation of my Doctor Who "Nostalgia Cabinet" containing select items of merchandise that means something to me in one way or another.
This collection represents about forty years of me buying and receiving Doctor Who related trinkets - I like it because we all should nurture our inner child!

![TARDIS Model Kit Build [Re-Upload]](/img/n.gif)
My abiding memory of the Denys Fisher Tardis was the smell of the cardboard. Many times I've thought about purchasing one just to see whether it would have that sweet, pulped paper smell. More than 40 years later I can still recall that smell and it sends me straight back to the late 70s. Great video, thank you :)
The TARDIS still seems to have that nostalgic aroma - and yes, it takes me back too. Thanks for watching and I'm glad you liked the video. Go on, buy a replacement TARDIS from eBay, you know you want to!
Great selection...I also had Daleks TARDIS and taking K9 all sadly lost in the mists of time .....all now collectors items ...AHH the memories.
I've lost so much over the years, but the real pain is not being able to see and appreciate it. Thanks to the spare cabinet, and my wife, we can now at least see some of my favourite items.
Woah! That's a super impressive collection! Nice one :D
Well, it pleases me no end and doesn't make my house look like a toy shop, so that's a bonus!
@@PBProps That's always a plus xD
That's an impressive collection vid :)
Cheers. It's not a massive collection by some collector's standards, but it makes me happy and I guess that's all that matters. Plus my wife and kids love it, so there's a bonus!
That's a lovely collection. I used to have some of my CO figures on display, but I had to move them, as I share my house with my brother, his partner, and their son. The little lad could not resist playing with the Daleks on the landing windowsill, and they were a magnet for his young cousins, too. I would arrange them from 'The Dead Planet' onwards, and then find them in a clump at one end of the windowsill. When I was a child (and it were all fields round 'ere, etc.,) I wouldn't have dared touch something that wasn't mine. So stupid me for thinking that they would be left alone now. I could probably put them back, now - I showed the little lad the scene of the Dalek in the scrapyard from 'Remembrance Of The Daleks', and it terrified him, (That didn't go down too well with his mum) so my models would probably be safe. Drastic measures.🤔😬😆😆😆
As kids grows older, they (hopefully) learn not to touch stuff - my kids were the same. It was partly down to my son that this display remained. As soon as I put it up, I wanted to pack it all away again, but he asked for it to stay, so there it is. He's also very well aware that all of this collection will one day be his, he's got some of it already in his room. I doubt my daughter will want any of it though.
I'm sure that you and your nephew can enjoy your stuff now, you could make it a thing, get him in on setting up the display. It might be a bit of fun!
Great memories held within that case, broken or otherwise they still hold fantastic nostalgia.
I think we had the Dr Who treats as I do recall that game on the back, I'm pretty sure of it now as I type, because the card tokens were in mothers sideboard for years...
Talking of eatables - I do recall keeping my Suchards? Easter egg box with light? Might have to get my brother on a search and rescue mission... thanks for time-warp trip down memory lane! 😀
Thanks. I think the couple of broken items that were in there when this was filmed are now repaired and back to almost as good as new. I'll probably also have a rearrange in there at some point too as that's much over due.
I don't recall a Suchards easter egg box with a light, though I do remember a TARDIS shaped one with a Dalek on the front. Unfortunately, where its gun discharge ray was placed was somewhat unfortunate - because when you opened it up, it looked like it was coming from the fifth Doctor's crotch...
@PBProps after a research mission, yes, that Easter egg with the oddly positioned Dalek Ray/whiz was the Suchard's one... and if memory recalls, it had rub down transfers too...
The later Dalek egg, without double-entendres, was with sound, no light... still works according to my brother, sadly no chocolate left!
Very nostalgic! I would have been overjoyed if Dinky or someone would have produced a die cast TARDIS with little plastic figures if the Doctor and Jo back in the 70's. Instead I resorted to having to make my own Police boxes from cardboard and using any figure I could find who vaguely looked like the characters. Under the dining room table became the interior of the 'Miniscope'. Thank heavens for Chracter Options!
I did pretty much the same; made little cardboard TARDISes in scale with the 3 3/4" toys that looked vaguely like they could be the Doctor. I had high hopes for Dapol in the 1980's, but the reality of the actual toys were a bitter disappointment. Still, they had charm.
This is great. Really appreciated the memories that go along with the various toys and models. Its an interesting parallel to Dr Who being a scale against which we measure our growing up. Long may both of those things continue!
Well thanks for watching and I'm really pleased that people have taken to this video as I really wasn't too sure about it, I thought it was too personal.
Actually really enjoyed this video, it got me fondly remembering my childhood memories connected to Doctor Who.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks. The whole reason for doing this was to hopefully distract from what's going on at the moment and get people thinking of fonder times. Glad that you enjoyed it.
@@PBProps I truly did enjoy it and your plan worked, thanks again.
I've had a particularly difficult week due to increased work pressures and this video did indeed take me back to happier, more innocent and enjoyable times.
"A man is a sum of his memories you know...."
@@markjohnson6394 Then the video did its job! Take care of yourself.
Love it, and the autographs at the start 😉
I thought you'd like the autographs - these were given to me by a great mate, not 'arf!
That was lovely. Thanks and stay well.
Thanks. You stay well too.
I adored this video. I used to have one of those ceramic police box money boxes when I was little. Sadly, it got smashed years later. I love your police box collection.
Well as the great man said, "It's nice to be adored." Thanks for watching. Also, shame about your ceramic money box, but I guess in this day and age, it's easy to find another.
The Denys Fisher TARDIS was my first TARDIS toy. Alas was destroyed when I was a kid as I left it out in the rain. The next two ones I owned was the Money box and one from an Easter Egg. Which was just the cardboard packaging the egg came in. haha But those were lost in time too.
That was a great in depth look at your collection and the stories behind why they mean something to you. As a collector we all have these personal stories and memories for certain items that we own. Would be wonderful to hear and see more of your collection.
I remember the Easter egg, the Davison one right with his special crotch zapper? I never got that, but I've seen them.
I guess that I should do more like this in terms of content, especially as it's fairly easy to do and doesn't require 8 to 12 weeks of building time first!
@@PBProps Yeah, That’s the Easter Egg. 5th Doctor was printed on the TARDIS.
Thanks for sharing - very interesting. I would like to know more about your design work.
Have a look around the channel, there's a few videos around that cover this. I'm glad that you found the video interesting.
Love your collection and yes back in the early days there wasn't much to buy,unlike so much now can get. I've been a fan for years got a into Doctor Who in early 1980's with Tom Baker on PBS TV. Thankful I got to know this show here in the U.S. I do have the Dapal Doctor Who Figures I enjoy still . I also spent 7 years back in early 1990's putting together the complete classic Era show
Thanks, the collection on show isn't everything, it's just what I've got the space for. As time moves on, I often think that I should just get rid of the rest. These days I feel like there's way too much stuff out there on the market and it all looks the same - which is a shame.
Great vid! :-) I also spotted a Playstation VR tucked under your TV lol
Thanks. And well spotted. That whole area needs a damned good sorting, but whenever I think about doing that, either my son or daughter are usually in the way playing some game or other.
Loved that. Can relate to the thrown away dalek story too well. Thanks for a great video in these weird times.
Thanks for watching. Hopefully it distracted you from the world for just over ten minutes.
Good to see that you're ok also I'm surprised you haven't called the Paradox with all of the fourth doctors
Everything's good here - pretty much normal for me as I've been in self imposed isolation for nearly two decades! Hope you're well!
PB Props I’m ok just glad to see ur still good also cannot wait for other content u provide
More like this would be great.
Fantastic display, I have a load of old Kenner Ghostbusters and Star Wars toys from my childhood stored away I’d love to have out like this but sadly haven’t the room.
Im curious as to which doctor you have on the bottom of the Trial of a Time Lord vhs tin? I have McCoy on mine.
More can be arranged. All my non Doctor Who childhood stuff is still at my folks' house. If we move to a place with a spare room, I'll put it out... I can dream.
As to the tin question, Patrick Troughton from "The Two Doctors."
Love this video! I still have the Denys Fisher Tardis but unfortunately wrote on the front door panel as an excited child... Amazing that you took that formative passion, and then created such amazing accurate models for us all to treasure.
You could always look at it this way; the fact that you added to your DF TARDIS is now part of its history, so it's something to look back on with fondness.
As to my passion for design etc from my childhood, I've just always loved toys and would make my own. I remember taking my 12" Darth Vader doll to the cinema to see Empire Strikes Back and I was gutted to notice that my doll was wrong - from the incorrect shape to the wrong colouring, it being all black when the face should have been black and grey. It just made me want to do things properly.
Really enjoyed this video. You have a really good way of making these videos and I always find them entertaining. I'm glad to see another die hard Tom Baker fan and I am finding after "new who" that going back to my childhood Doctors Tom Baker and John Pertwee really gives me so many happy memories in this strange time we are all faced with across the world. I saw your Character Options K1 Robot and it has made me truly sad that I sold mine last year when I needed some cash for other priorities...so I'm scouring eBay once again to get all the parts to build him up (got the head and legs so far...).
Definitely keep up the great content because this made my morning to watch. Would definitely like to see more of that great collection of yours.
Well thanks for that, I'll gladly take it as a glowing review - especially as I always having crushing doubts about every video that I make because I'm painfully aware of some of the limitations. There's always something that I need that I don't have - the current one is a tripod strong enough to hold the camera!
I'm also sorry to hear that you had to sell your K1, but at least you're on your way to pulling another together. If you ever get stuck finding the torso, drop me a line because I'm certain that I have a spare one in storage somewhere.
I'll try to continue to do more videos, but right now, for obvious reasons, laying my hands on the raw materials and supplies is a tad hard. Let's see how this will all pan out.
This is now my favourite video of yours
Cheers! I may well do more like this.
I've seen a orange dalek before can't think wear but rings a bell maybe comics?, love the little playmobile looks like something from trumpton lol.love it I got memories there just missing dapol and you got every manufacture of who goods
Kudos get your designed stuff in there and look forward to Tardis repair put df tom in front
Nice video cheered me up
Ben Flay an orange dalek appeared onscreen in series 5.
I'd rather keep the Denys Fisher Doctor where he is as there's not enough room in front of the TARDIS toy.
Very enjoyable, please keep the videos coming. I always look forward to your content
Thanks and I'm glad that you look forward to my content, that gives me a bit of a boost to hear!
Wow your collection is great!
Thank you, glad that you like it.
Absolutely amazing collection! And I think we can all relate to traveling and keeping our collections in boxes from time to time. And it becomes very exciting when we get to see them again. Cheers!
Thanks for watching and I'm really glad that you like my little display. One day, I will get to see the rest of it too!
I absolutely loved this video and it really cheered me up. Fantastic collection and yes, I'd love to see more 👍😎
I'm genuinely pleased that it cheered you up and yeah, I guess I'll do some more like this.
Of what you have shown you have a fantastic doctor who collection.
Thank you. I do wonder what will happen to the rest of my stuff, but I'm happy with my currently display as it's not too overbearing... just the way that I like it.
Christ man! Ive literally got 2 of the exact same cabinet which I also keep my DW stuff in! great collection!!
Clearly great minds think alike!
We like the same doctor haha i even have his scarf lol.
There's only one Doctor, isn't there? I have a scarf or two as well.
@@PBProps aaahhhhh i eanna get his suuuuuuper long burgundy one and just see how many of my freinds we can get wearing it XD itd be so stupid but so much fun to do.
Lovely! Sadly, your tale of the Earthquake Neighbours and the tragic damage to your Denys Fisher TARDIS puts me in mind of the beautiful transparent resin Dalek i had on display in my cabinet which, several years ago when the cabinet got shook by rampaging visiting kids, got knocked off its lit pedestal, and the appendages snapped and shattered. I tried to get them replaced, but the original maker has, i suspect, moved on, and i do not, unfortunately, currently have the skill or knowledge to replace them myself, but who knows. As we now live in a far more squeezy house, all my collectables are sadly boxed up for now, but last year i did get the chance to air them, when i lent some choice pieces to the Library across the road.
Ah that's too bad about your resin Dalek. Was this one of those copies of the CO Daleks that used to appear on eBay from time to time? All is probably not lost with the piece, I'm confident that it can be fixed. If I had two (somewhat expensive) pieces of equipment to hand, I'd offer to cast you up a new set. I'm sure what you have can be fixed.
@@PBProps I think it was that eBay fellow, but it was through one of the Bulletin Board forum sites. He was spoken highly of and regarded well. Kind of you to offer, btw. Theoretically, i have the knowledge to recast them myself, but experience, equipment, materials... these i lack. But who knows, i do love acquiring new skills. Perhaps opportunity will arise.
Thank you very much for your videos, btw. I very much enjoy them, have been following your posts since the Blogger days (and i really must finish putting that 7th Doctor's Fobwatch together one of these days!!!)
@@revdrjon Oh, you remember the blog days? Well thanks for sticking around.
That pocket watch I did back then, if you remember, as soon as I finished the second one, I found the actual original vintage pocket watch, but seeing as I'd made two already, I couldn't bring myself to make a third - even though it'd be totally accurate.
I'll get around to it soon enough.
@@PBProps I vaguely remember you finding a second? Apologies, it's been a while. But yes. Soon enough. I've got so many "soon enough" of my own... ;}P>
Yeah, technically the one in the blog was the second I'd put together, though I showed the horrible first one which was put together just for the sake of it a year or two before. The second one had a casing that at the time, was more accurate, but I knew it wasn't right. As soon as I finished that one, I did a quick search on the net and found the actual pocket watch, immediately bought it and have done nothing with it in the last decade!
I’d be very interested in seeing any of your collection as it is so varied and has a backstory
Sure, this is something that people seem to want, so I have no problem complying. Besides, it'll be fun to see all my old stuff.
If you are ever selling anything, please tell me.
Also, im so happy you kept this stuff in good condition.
I've generally kept everything in good condition because I was careful as a kid. Though from about 1998, everything I owned or bought since then has gone straight into storage - so it doesn't even get a chance to get damaged / faded/ worn etc!
I have a very similar cabinet. I still haven't gotten around to fixing my talking Dalek. I wanted to have the silver one. My neighbour had one before I knew they existed and when I heard him playing with it for a moment I forgot they were creations of fiction and was terrified that real Daleks had landed. I was given the red one. I've still got the box, it's a bit tatty but I love the art. The attachments are all reproductions though. I also had a Kojak walkie talkie for some reason but that's gone now. I always wanted a TARDIS tuner. Totally pointless device which I hope will be canonised one day.
I'm sure you'll get around to fixing your Dalek at some point, it doesn't take all that long either - I guess it's just a matter of doing it when you think about it. Like you, I always wanted the TARDIS Tuner. Frankly I have, to this day, no idea what it is supposed to do, I just like the look of it!
@@PBProps this blog entry is a gas. hypnogoria.blogspot.com/2017/10/the-orrible-ouse-of-terrible-old-tat-29.html?m=1 It has video of the thing in action. As A creator of electronic sound "things" I would love to have one as a "musical" instrument. The advert enhancement is a hoot also.
Thanks for the link. I guessed that it was a radio, but always wondered what the other function was supposed to be about. Now I know. Looking at it in action, it has vibes of the classic Star Trek Tricorder. I wonder if that was intentional.
@@PBProps I see that. Seeing as they went to the trouble of giving it roundels it does seem a bit of an odd choice to go for dark colours.silver or white would be more Tom TARDISy.
Dark colours always looks a bit more striking, I guess. Who knows what was going through their minds at the time.
I have that Tom Baker tin bank. My dad got it at what you might call a jumble sale for, I think around 4 dollars or, I think, 2.90 pounds. Very cool. I've always wanted one of those noise and sound Tardis toys, but by the time I'm able to get them, they quit making them. Oh, well.
If you're talking about the CO TARDIS toys, then I do believe that they still do make them, but you may have to hedge your bets with the secondary market - so that'll be a gamble. At least you have the Tom Baker tin, that's pretty special.
@@PBProps Yeah, stuff like the flight control tardis (I think that's what it's called) or the Tardis FX bank. I LOVE that big Tardis model you have in those Q&A videos of yours I've been watching.
I'd love a good, detailed 4th Doctor Tardis...but most of the toys I've seen are the newer post 2005 Doctors Tardises...
@@Spottedfeather The large TARDIS model was built from scraps when I was about 13 years old - it was the first "proper" scratch build that I ever did.
Great video.... but where’s the Dapol?
Ta. The Dapol stuff is in storage - somewhere, either here or off site. I'm yet to discover which.
Always interested in toy historical perspective
Me too. I thought I'd do something a little more personal with this video, rather than a simple "That's my Denys Fisher 4th Doctor dolly, there's a Product Enterprise Movie Dalek..." I like a bit of back story.
A large majority of Doctor Who merchandise that I have is mainly Character Options stuff and some Dapol and Product Enterprise but other than that it's mostly issues of DWM, DVDs, Big Finish CDs, Books, Graphic Novels and more recently the Standard Edition of the Season 12 Blu-Ray.
Sounds like you have quite the haul of goodies.
@@PBProps Took years of work but yes. The Product Enterprise and Dapol stuff was when I was very young. It was mostly given to my brother and I kind of inherited it as he grew out of Doctor Who by the time the New Series started.
Enjoyed that thanks
Thanks, glad you did enjoy it!
July 4th 2021 great
Thanking you kindly!
Is it wrong I’d like you to build the cabinet of Magnus Greel to display your items of nostalgia?
This is mutiny, Mr. Sin - mutiny! No, I think that's a reasonable idea, but I'd have to open it just to see the contents. Then of course there's the danger of time spillage involved...
I would love a Denys Fisher tardis. Something I always asked santa for but never got one
I guess there's always the secondary market, I've seen many on eBay over the years. But they are the coolest though.
you must be a big doctor who fan
I was many years ago. These days I just replicate the props and models.
@@PBProps can we talk about doctor who
I can't see why not.
@@PBProps HI i am writing own doctor who series for fun have you seen the spin off series class
No, I've not seen Class or any New Doctor Who since 2013 unfortunately. And the last time that I watched any Classic Doctor Who was in 1996. Sounds like you're going to have a lot of fun with writing your own series!
YOU FORGOT ABOUT THE 100 TRILLION TOM BAKERS FROM THE BIG FINISH COVERS YOU HAVE TO BUY HUNDREDS OF THE SAME FIGURE AND REPAINT THEM
Ah ha, you see - it's Big Finish. That doesn't count. But I know what you mean...
Hey! I know that due to this whole covid-19 situation you probably can’t do any large projects, but do you ever plan on doing an accurate hartnell box? I am going to modify a B&M TARDIS, while my main troughton box project is at my grandmothers and I don’t want to risk her health, to make a hartnell TARDIS.
It's on the list as a possibility - if you're talking about CO scale. I'd like to, it's just weather I'd ever get around to it. What I'd prefer to do is make larger versions.
PB Props I’m making one in CO scale, but I originally wanted to do one in 1/6th scale from those kits that were around. Sadly I can’t find one so a 1/13th (approx) scale one will have to do.
@@KapybaraKSP Building stuff yourself is always more rewarding, I feel. Once all the fuss is over, you could always do a 1/6th yourself as well.
PB Props yeah, I just need the parts! I was leaning towards the kit because it’s just a bit quicker for me and I LOVE the painting and texturing and assembling, it’s just cutting it out that is my weakest link.
Got a new sub from me
Thank you - and welcome aboard!
All the things what matter to you are doctor who lol I’m the same
Not quite, my family come first. Doctor Who for me is nostalgia, I tend to keep it in the background. I almost never watch it - which some people find odd, I don't know why.
Would that be a lot of TARDISI?
Scholars have been debating this for the last 57 years. It's better than TARDISeseses!
