Shell was the hardest thing to get together - too... many... grey plates. The 'bot itself underneath was ridiculously simple! Trick was to put the caster wheel at the front to get that authentic Dalek turning action. Thinking about an R2D2 next, although I've not got many white plates. Might have to hit Bricklink.

That shell must have taken for ever to get it to fit properly. I must say it looks very good. That shell must have taken for ever to get it to fit properly.

I live in New Zealand - and we get it here - my kids now watch the new Dr Who. But somehow you cant beat the classic Dr Who... I remember the Dalek's Exterminate screams coming from the Black ad white TV when I was a wee child and I used to be so scared ... and then you have to wait until the next episode to find out what happened... Hey did you watch the episode where the Doctor came in from behind the Dalek and put a robe over it so it cant see! Iwonder if the Hitechnic Infrared sensor would have helped 'see' through the robe. LOL @ ‘reverse the polarity of the neutron flow’!

Love my NXT - hate it's dinosaur-like peabrain memory. Had a really good speech sample, but it was quite long and I got twitchy about memory size.

I don't think they send it anymore, it was in the fall of 2006 I think it was when they aired one of the seasons. I live in Norway, and I think I’ve seen one of the episodes that bot is in.

No way this one can cope with stairs! It’s definitely an old-school Dalek rather than one of the new ones. No way this one can cope with stairs!

Ex-term-i-nate!" Absolutely brilliant! It makes my K9 look pathetic. My question is... can the Doctor escape by running up stairs or not? Does it have the "El-e-vate!" command? Mind you, for that you might need to 'reverse the polarity of the neutron flow'! “Ex-term-i-nate! Ex-term-i-nate!”
