| Can anyone tell me about the Mini RC Dalek Battle Pack? In particular, is it just a smaller version of the big RC Daleks? Or do they say different things?
I have a small army of Cybermen and a larger army of Daleks (many sizes) already, but if this pack is different enough I'll want it too.
Thank you! |

| I recently bought this from Forbidden Planet New York City and the quality control is unreliable. The one I bought had a gold Dalek that had wheels with uneven speeds and the other one they had on hand had a gold Dalek that didn't work at all. I ended up taking store credit.
The Daleks only have two (maybe three) lines that they both say. One occurs at random and when they turn on, and another when they're hit by another Dalek.
It's called the battle pack because two people can take the Daleks and try to exterminate each other.
The controls are the same as the 12" variants except there are no buttons for speech but a firing button at the middle.
Edit: Reading around the web, it seems the gold Daleks are duds... |

| I bought another one of these from ToyRocket and both of them don't work! All they do is say "Seek, locate, destroy". 
I noticed WhoNA has over a hundred of these. I'd advise to test them out before shipping them because this is three out of three that they don't work properly!

| | We would have to charge you a $75 testing fee to take off all the little twisty wires. |

| Plus installing the batteries too. 
But yes, with my difficulties and reading around the web, these things are duds.
