FarSight Studios has created another Kickstarter, this time to produce an officially licensed digital port of the 1992 Bally Doctor Who pinball table for The Pinball Arcade.

FarSight previously produced Kickstarters for digital ports of the T2, Addams Family, Star Trek: The Next Generation and The Twilight Zone pinball tables so to cover their licensing fees, but also the actor's likenesses and voices that are featured. This Kickstarter is to cover the licensing fees of Doctor Who and the actor's likenesses and voices featured in it.
The Pinball Arcade features digital recreations of real-life pinball tables by Gottlieb, Bally, Stern and Williams. Most of the tables already featured in the game didn't need to be crowd-funded due to their low license costs, but because other tables feature movie licensees and likenesses of actors, it wouldn't be considered financially viable to acquire the rights themselves, which is why they choose to raise the funds for them through Kickstarter. The studio's aim is to preserve these classic and recent arcade machines for people to play whereever, which is why I personally believe this is a Kickstarter worth checking out. The Pinball Arcade is on PS4, PS3, Vita, Xbox One, 360, Wii U, iOS, 3DS, Ouya and Kindle Fire, and if this Kickstarter is successful, as a reward people will get a copy of the Doctor Who table for their platform of The Pinball Arcade (though possibly not for the PS3, Vita, and 360 versions).
