At least he should have nice muscles after pushing his Dalek around all day. Built for around $1,149, this full-sized Dalek uses an electric wheelchair as its base, and in addition to pushing, can also be controlled via remote.
While master Rob Bosher is a far cry from David Tennant, he's built in a voice modulator so his creation doesn't just look like a Dalek and walk like one, it also talks like one too.

Wow, I thought I'd be the first person to ask what the fuck that is. He couldn't have at least built a working R2D2 or something that people would recognize? Hell, even the fucking robot from Lost in Space!

In Britain (the guy who built it is British), Doctor Who and Daleks are as well known and recognizable as R2D2 and definitely moreso than Lost in Space. It's another of those weird cases where something so ubiquitus to British pop-culture never really made it across the pond for whatever reason.

Fuck you random internet dude, only build shit for yourself that I know and care about. That's like talking about Magic when poker is clearly a more popular game.

And Daleks are so goofy looking too, definitely should have picked a cooler sci-fi robot to build.

Dr. Who has a sizeable U.S. fanbase, these people are just all uncultured!
I lovde the recent run with David Tennant, can't say I care anymore now that he's gone.
And where's TARDISman in this debate?

Waters of Mars aired last night (in the US). We've got two specials left with him and then we're dealing with a 24-year old actor playing as The Doctor.
