Masters Laser Screwdriver

Laser Screwdriver

 

While the Doctor has his sonic screwdriver, the Master has his laser screwdriver.

Although similar in name, the laser screwdriver is used more often than not as a weapon rather than as a tool as with the Doctors sonic screwdriver.

This replica of the masters laser screwdriver measures 21.5cm in length and is designed in imitation brass and silver. The laser screwdriver is longer and heavier than it's sonic screwdriver counterpart and comes with additional features.

These features include a spring loading which allows the laser screwdriver to expand as well as two different sound affects and two LED lights.

The laser screwdriver requires 3 x LR44 batteries to operate and these are included with the device.
