The most recent addition to the legion of remote controlled Daleks - the 18" behemoth - as selling for a (unnecessarily large) price of £99 before Christmas.
Yet Play.com are flogging the cat-scarer £79, and I've heard rumours of Tesco's selling it off for just £50!
And if you can get it for that price, it's definitely worth having.
The scale is virtually perfect, and it is sturdier than its little 12" brother.
However while it can act as a sentry and respond to voice commands, the aspect of this toy that really impresses is how it responds to touch.
So beware your babies or pets getting too close for comfort, lest your Dalek sentry takes issue and bark's a final warning!

Doctor Who Classics
Doctor Who and the Iron Legion was the very first comic strip to feature in the old Doctor Who Weekly (later Doctor Who Magazine) and for lucky North American readers, it's back shortly in the form of Doctor Who Classics.
While British readers have had the chance to relive the Fourth Doctor's adventure against an oppressive army of Roman robots from an alternate timeline for some time now thanks to the graphic novels from Panini, Pat Mills, John Wagner and artist Dave Gibbons superb work is shortly available for Americans and Canadians, in both comic book and compilation form in 2008.
Volume 1 features the first 5 installments of Iron Legion, with Volume 2 tying up the first adventure and leading into City of the Damned.
