AbbyShot Customer at the Doctor Who Experience!

AbbyShot customers can be found all over the world doing exciting things, and normally AbbyShot is happy to hear about it... this time however, we're happy with a side of insanely jealous! Customer and Twitter friend James (@jamibu) recently visited the Doctor Who Experience in London and teased us with tantalizing bits of info through our Twitter account.

Not only did James visit the "Experience", he also wore his trusty AbbyShot Tenth Doctor's Coat! He went above the call of duty this week (probably after noticing how jealous we were) and shared with us some fantastic photos in a Picasa Album. And by some fantastic photos we mean... over 100 photos! Of course we had trouble picking out our favourites but here goes... Allons-y!

01-Doctor-Who-Experience-Sign
James approaches the Doctor Who fan's motherland!
(We're also glad that no one ran off with that sign!)
So what wonders await inside?

02-Doctor-and-Dalek.JPG
The Doctor meets a Dalek! Looks like the World War II Dalek, though sadly this Dalek is lacking his cup of tea.

03-Doctor-Who-RadioTimes.JPG
Ah, the First Doctor. These old Radio Times covers must have been a sight to behold!

04-Doctor-and-TARDIS.JPG
This must have been a complete and utter geek-out moment. The TARDIS alone looks absolutely fantastic, then you've got the Eleventh Doctor there plus the costumes of ALL previous Doctors around the room... wow. Just wow.

05-TARDIS-Interior.jpg
As James said in his own caption, it looks like a screenshot! The Tenth Doctor's Coat is back inside the TARDIS where it belongs. Looks like the "Experience" is bigger on the inside too...

06-Captain-Jack-Coat.JPG
James' friend admires the Captain Jack Harkness costume... we have to say, that IS a fine-looking coat ;)

07-Martha-Jones-Jacket.JPG
We enjoyed James' caption for this one: "Martha Jones' costume....or an AbbyShot mannequin?" That does look remarkably like a certain AbbyShot ladies jacket ;)

08-Face-of-Boe.JPG
Our final photo pick: The Doctor says goodbye to an old friend. As you can tell from this photo: How wonderfully interactive the Doctor Who Experience must be!

It would seem that the overall lesson here is: If you're anywhere near London, swing by the Doctor Who Experience! It looks like an amazing time. Here's James' 140-character-or-less Twitter review to summarize:

"Amazing seeing all the costumes and props, especially the TARDIS, and so much fun having foes like the Daleks brought to life!"

Hear, hear! Thanks SO much James for sharing these photos with us. If you'd like to see (plenty) more photos, James has uploaded the full album here on Picasa.

Need your own Doctor Who Coat for your adventures in time and space? Be sure to jump on our Tenth Doctor's Coat waiting list!

Have a great weekend (and watch out for those Daleks),

Wow! Thanks for posting such a detailed report!

And for the record, that's my fiancée blowing kisses to Captain Jack. Though she assures me she's just saying hello....

No, thank YOU James for sharing these fantastic photos with us and our readers! We can't make it to London right now for the "Experience", but your pics are the next best thing!

As for Captain Jack, your fiancée blowing him kisses can only mean trouble, I'd get her back into the TARDIS pronto ;)

Haha, well-played Mr. Strain! We may just have a jacket 'upgrade' for you later this year... ;)

Glad to hear it :D My 10 coat could do with some company ;)
