As the new Airfix Daleks hit the shops – just in time for Christmas – we’ve got some photos direct from Airfix.

The good people at Airfix tell us that their Daleks in Manhattan model kit is now hitting the shops. The long-awaited kit should be a hit this Christmas, assuming the stocks are available. (You may recall that we’ve been tracking the development of the Airfix Daleks for around a year now.)

A look at the photos show just how wonderful this kit is. Very nice detailing and just a few accuracy flaws to drive the most pedantic Dalek fans mad putting them right – such as the single eye (the Kaled mutant has two, it’s just that one is very deformed, closed and off to one side) and the solid gun barrel. Those minor flaws aside, this is a very nice addition to anyone’s Dalek collection.

We’ve got some nice photos below – you can see high resolution versions of these on the Dalek Links Facebook group.
