No 4 1/2 year old reviewer for the hit BBC television show Doctor Who should ever be un-prepared for what the universe throws her way. Luckily Lindalee Rose has her Sonic Screwdriver and now a kid-sized TARDIS of her very own to aide her in her adventures. Our good friend Brandon Gabriel and his team over at Midnight Oil Creative in Burbank, CA (who are all huge fans of Lindalee’s Doctor Who reviews on Beyond the Marquee) decided that something was missing from her web-series and decided to get together to build Lindalee her very own TT Type 40, Mark 3 (aka Time-Traveling Spacecraft) just like on the show. Midnight Oil Creative is a leader in motion-picture and home-entertainment marketing; designing and creating posters, in-theater displays, outdoor advertising, promotional and branding services, video game merchandising, interactive social media stunts and more for the Hollywood Entertainment industry, so who else better to construct a sturdy corrugated cardboard one-of-a-kind replica of the Doctor’s own blue Police Call Box than these guys? With the return of Doctor Who in just a few days for the much anticipated Christmas Special Lindalee cannot wait to review “the Snowmen” episode for all her fans! Click ahead to see the before and after pics of the TARDIS and let us know what you think of hers.

 Random TARDIS Facts:

– TARDIS stands for Time and Relative Dimension in Space

– A properly maintained and piloted TARDIS can transport its occupants to any point in time and any place in the universe

– TARDISes also possess a degree of sentience and provide their users with additional tools and abilities including a telepathically-based universal translation system.

– The interior of a TARDIS is much larger than its exterior, which can blend in with its surroundings using the ship’s “chameleon circuit”

– The TARDIS’s chameleon circuit on Doctor Who is faulty, leaving it stuck in the shape of a 1960s-style London police box after a visit to London in 1963

– At the time of the series’ debut in 1963, the police box was still a common fixture in British cities. It provided a direct telephone link to the local police station; the telephone was located behind a small, hinged door, making it possible to use it from the outside, while the box itself was used as a temporary office containing a desk.

– The type of police box that the TARDIS resembled was constructed of concrete. However, the props for the television series were originally made of wood, and later on of fibreglass, for easy transportation and construction on location as well as within the confines of a studio set.

– The production team conceived of the TARDIS travelling by dematerialising at one point and rematerialising elsewhere, although sometimes in the series it is shown also to be capable of conventional space travel.

– Before a TARDIS becomes fully functional, it must be primed with the biological imprint of a Time Lord, normally done by simply having a Time Lord operate the TARDIS for the first time. This imprint comes from the Rassilon Imprimatur, part of the biological make-up of Time Lords, which gives them both a symbiotic link to their TARDISes and the ability to withstand the physical stresses of time travel
