No, your eyes do not deceive you: this is a legitimate TARDIS backpack. Recently, the TARDIS has become a target for crafters looking to pay tribute to the iconic [British](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcdonalds-collection) sci-fi show 'Doctor Who.' One such crafter is Lee, of the [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dropshop) shop MadBoyWithBox. Lee is the creator of this awesome TARDIS backpack, designed to pay tribute to the show in a functional and fun way.

Like the real TARDIS, this backpack is bigger on the inside than it looks and measures 7” by 11”. The TARDIS backpack can be used as both a book bag and as a purse of sorts thanks to its adjustable straps. Lee is selling the TARDIS bag for $174.76 and it’s available now.
