  2. I cannot lie, Tim, it was a wrench to take a knife to his lovely bonded polycarbide and butter icing outer shell. But it was well worth it. I was told it was the best tasting Dalek ever!

    He was chocolate with Malteser bumps and licorice trim, mint stick neck slats and plunger, marshmallow eyestalk discs. He got a late addition of candles as his headlights upon presentation.

    Next year I want a Cyberman one!
