Doctor Who Season 8: New Sonic Devices for Strax, Jenny and Vastra

Posted on the 21 December 2013 by Geekasms @geekasms

Blue Peter ran a contest to design sonic devices for Strax, Jenny and Vastra for the upcoming 8th season of Doctor Who.  The contest was open for children from ages 6-15 to to submit their designs.  Over 3600 entries were received and these are the three winners, chosen by a panel of judges that included Steven Moffat:

Strax’s Sonic Lorgnette

Vastra’s Sonic Hat Pin

Jenny’s Sonic Gauntlet

I love how thought out the winning designs are, with my favorite being Vastra’s Hat Pin.

Our friends over at Blogtor Who have uploaded a video of the presentation of the winners where you can see them describe how they came up with the ideas.  Cool stuff from some amazing kids.
