The Mk1 Mekon is a dalekoid type robot that is similiar to a Dalek
The 'ball' type arms will fit a Dalek, dozens of arm options will soon be available, keep an eye on Kickstarter etc
Most of the real world robots I'm involved in designing are based on people or animals, the Mk1 Mekon is an exception. Some of the parts are interchangable with a Dalek, thought this would be of interest to Dalek builders. The mk1 Mekon is optimized for mass production, the kits are going affordable with build times measured in hours rather than days!
Ps this isn't an advert, just letting Dalek fans know that the Real Steel Mekons are on thier way...and yes I'm a hard core Dr Who / sci fi fan
Design notes
The Mekons are 72cm wide at the base so will easily fit thru 99% of internal doors...unlike a Dalek!
The base doubles up as a Davros style cyber chair for the Mk1 Chrystabot android.
TLOS 'the movie' versions are designed for human propulsion
The standard Mekons are a PC based robotics platform
Their primary role in the Pansensis ecosystem is that of supervisor
... I'll post a pic when I get a chance
