Realistically? I'd go with zero. They didn't make one for 12th or 13th so I think they're stopping with 11's. I'd love to see one though.

Agree with the poster above - it seems unlikely. They did Tennants and Smiths and then did some small tweaks to Smiths to release it as an early version of Capaldi’s and that’s it. No sign of the later seasons of Capaldi or whatever-her-name-is.
Combine that with the steady decline in ratings throughout both of the last two Doctor's runs and I’m not sure the appeal is there for them.
Finally, they do seem to have a pretty long development time on their products. 14 is supposed to be a brief run before the new guy steps in so by the time they could get a product to market, it would be years after the fact.
I’d guess that IF they are gonna do a new one (and that’s a big IF) , they’d be working on a replica of the new guys sonic and hoping he sticks around long enough and is popular enough to make it worth their while.
The one thing that might make a -4 sonic possible is if Tennant maintains his extreme popularity but the new guy flops and the series continues to fade. At that point a 14 sonic may be a nostalgia piece as the last gasp of life in a dying franchise.
Hopefully that doesn’t happen and the new actor and old showrunner together can revive interest (sorry - I’m terrible with names)

Bump.
For anyone who missed out on the Character Options vac metal 14th screwdriver, the market is flooded with inexpensive KOs. I picked one up after seeing the below video, and it's a great option. If I hadn't known going in, I wouldn't have any idea it was a fake. I got mine for under $30 shipped off ebay.
My copy has the KO packaging and slight differences around the emitter, but they corrected the LED colors, the "crackle" printing, and the tolerances compared with the copy in the review. It feels good and works well.
There's also chromed KO 12th doctor sonics around too, for about $50. Supposedly those have some unfortunate light bleed and less accurate electronics , but I may pick one up eventually.
