The TARDIS Purse is Designed for Female 'Doctor Who' Super Fans
Michael Hines — November 25, 2011 — Fashion
If I were a female 'Doctor Who' fan I would be all over the TARDIS purse. The TARDIS purse is a custom creation made by Etsy merchant Krukru Studio. The purse is designed to mimic the famous time-traveling phone booth from the hit British sci-fi show.
The TARDIS purse is handmade using felt and measures 13.8" tall and 7" wide. The bag sells for $180, a high price to pay for those of who aren't Who-heads. With all of the 'Doctor Who' crafts and merchandise popping up all over the Internet, you've got to wonder when the show will make its U.S. debut. It may only be a matter of time before the show lands on a major network in the U.S. I'd expect to see TARDIS everything come that day. You've been warned.
