# Sci-Fi Steampunk Creations These Steampunk Doctor Who Items are a Seamless Blend of Genres By Angela Rajic | Published 2014-03-03 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/steampunk-doctor-who References: [mightymega](http://mightymega.com/2014/02/27/doctor-who-fan-builds-steampunk-tardis-dalek/) & [technabob](http://technabob.com/blog/2014/02/26/steampunk-tardis-and-dalek/) Playmobil Collector's Club blogger Emma J created these amazing steampunk Doctor Who products. The steampunk TARDIS (the sace ship/time machine used by the Doctor) is all gears and wood and metal, while the steampunk Dalek (the Doctor's greatest enemy on the show) is a steam-powered, gear-infused killing machine. These steampunk Doctor Who items are exceptionally well designed and look exactly like their original counterparts infused with an excellently rendered industrial aesthetic. The steampunk-inspired TARDIS and Dalek would fit quite well in the brown, wood paneled control room used by the fourth Doctor in the 70s and 80s. These fan-created pieces are a great tribute to the [longest running science fiction show](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buildabridge-mini-bridge) on television and showcase and great deal of artistic creativity and skill. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 45% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Steampunk-aesthetic Products:** There is an opportunity to create other steampunk-inspired products for fans of different franchises or markets. - **Fan-designed Products:** There is an opportunity to tap into consumers’ creativity by encouraging them to design and share their own fandom-themed products. - **Mixing Genres:** There is an opportunity to create new and unique products by blending elements from different genres or categories. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fan Merchandise:** This industry could further encourage its customers to design and share their own fan-inspired products. - **Home Decor:** This industry could create steampunk-inspired decor items like furniture, lighting, or wall art. - **Costume Design:** This industry could incorporate steampunk elements into their costume designs, potentially inspiring a new trend in fashion. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Steampunk Desktop Appliances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3in1-desk.md) - [DIY Wooden Watchmaking Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tfo-clockwork.md) - [Sci-Fi Film Franchise Drinkware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/picard-tea-cup-set.md) - [Cubic Sci-Fi Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-trek-borg-cube-advent-calendar.md) - [Sci-Fi-Inspired Storage Drives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-trek-discovery-flash-drives.md) - [Sci-Fi-Inspired Dynamic Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spacetime-transformation-lamp.md) - [Tubular Illuminating Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spacetime-blade.md) - [Retro Cinema Collectibles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lightup-delorean-popcorn.md) - [Sci-Fi Media Playsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buildabridge-mini-bridge.md)
