Quote - Why was everyone afraid of the Daleks? Anyone can just push them around or drop something over their eye stalk.
Yes.. the first few generations of Daleks were easily push aboutable. But its difficult to push something about that can float as with the later generations.
And I think the developement of the blue lensed eye stalks included x-ray and/or heat sensitive vision.
Also... the later generations were a whole lot harder (certainly to the touch) cos they were made of metal and real plastic as opposed to cardboard, egg boxes and sticky backed plastic.
Scarey? Of course they are! Ask anyone who was a kid when they first appeared and who used to run around wearing their duffle coats back to front with the hood up, one arm extended, bumping into things whilst growling (albeit muffled)... "EGGSTERMINATE..!!!
