Check out this sweet Dr. Who pinball video

I've never seen it before, but it looks really cool! The video is great in that it shows a ton of different angles:

It would be awesome to have on TPA, but I bet the license costs a bundle, especially since the new series took off. Maybe one day though!

While I never got Dr.Who, even as a child I thought it was garbage, that looks like a cool table to add to TPA.

used to play this table and quite loved it, despite not being familiar with the dr. who lore at all

Looks like a lot of actors on the table and backglass to license. But the table looks real good. Pretty different than anything we have already on TPA. Would be a great addition. I never watched the show, but I think I would enjoy that pin. I've never seen one in real life, but now I'm wishing I had.

I'm a big fan of the series, both old and new. Would love to see this one recreated!

Whoa ! I'd love to see this table. I used to watch in absolute terror from behind the sofa during the Jon Pertwee years. The Daleks used to freak me out so bad !

It'd probably be difficult to get, but this table was a favorite of mine back in the 1990s, before I was even really a Doctor Who fan.

In terms of gameplay the game it most closely resembles is Pin*Bot, which Barry Oursler also designed. The Time Expander toy is sort of an elaboration on Pin*Bot's head.

This is definitely on the top of my most wanted list. Yes the Time Expander is alot like Pin*Bot's head, but with 3 levels!! I don't know if it's because I hold so much nostalgia for the theme of this table, or if the layout is just the right mix of elements, but I cannot get enough of Dr.Who pinball.
And I've noticed that anytime I've seen it at pinball shows, there always seems to be a steady line of people waiting to play it. I'd love to hear from Farsight if this one would be possible some day?

There's a Doctor Who in great shape not far from me. It was one of the last machines at that place I really got into, but it's fantastic.

I just played one of these today. Pretty good shape, and only 25 cents a game! Definitely going to be going back there. I also found the place that I usually go for my real pinball fix just added a nice Bride of Pin*Bot next to their Pin*Bot. Then I found a third location that had a nice condition Scared Stiff and POTC. Pretty good day for pinball, I'd say.
