British Proto-Dalek

The British Proto-Daleks were robotic Proto-Daleks which were manufactured by British weapons factories for use in World War I and to aid the New Dalek Paradigm in completing the final stage of the Dalek Project, contemporary to the German Proto-Daleks. (COMIC: The Dalek Project)

Appearance
Proto-Daleks were manufactured during the Great War, and thus looked like a real Dalek casing had it been designed using early 1900sera technology. The British variants, like their German counterparts, used miniature tank treads for mobility, the eyestalks were much bulkier and camera-like, and were armed with a contemporary machine guns in place of the typical gunstick. The casing were was painted in dull, military colours, predominantly khaki for the British. They also sported manipulator arms similar to those used by true Daleks, but they were mounted on a pivot rather than a balljoint.

The British Proto-Daleks were distinguished from their German counterparts in that they had only three sense globes on each panel of the base unit — with two bulky midsection rings replacing the upper set of spheres. The eyestalk was thick and cylindrical, while the dome's luminosity dischargers were shaped like smaller glass hemispheres, and the mesh neck supporting the done itself had two thin metal bands wrapped around it. In addition, they sported Union Flag on their back mid section.

Despite the sharp physical differences, both Proto-Dalek variants possessed identical attributes: they were impervious to bullets. Despite being claimed to withstand mortars, grenades and light artillery, a German soldier destroyed a German Proto-Dalek with a hand grenade and heavy artilleries and shell bombardment destroyed several Proto-Daleks. They were also not immune to real Dalek weaponry. (COMIC: The Dalek Project)
