Police Box by: Simon Stockley "This model of the original MK2 Police Box was based on actual British police box blue prints that I found on a TARDIS web site years ago. For production purposes, the BBC modified this design slightly for the first Dr Who series and they have been modifying it ever since. For a history of the police box and the evolution of the TARDIS design, I strongly suggest looking at The TARDIS Library site: http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/~trekker/policeboxes/realboxes.html" There you have it. I have devised a simple animated gif from this image where the lightening bolts go on and off. Very Tomb of the Cybermen Episode One.
