Dalek maker and prop designer Julian Vince is selling some of his rare items from his Doctor Who collection – and the latest item on offer is one of four “Roboman” costumes, as seen in the documentaries More Than Thirty Years in the TARDIS and Dalekmania.
More Than Thirty Years in the TARDIS Roboman costume – created by Julian Vince
Julian is at pains to emphasise that although this item, recently discovered among his collection, is authentic in that it is “screen used”, but it is emphatically not a prop from the 1960s film, The Dalek Invasion of Earth.
The costume is one of a number of rare Doctor Who-related items Julian is selling – contact him by email at Juliangenesis21@gmail.com if you are interested.
It’s worth bookmarking his Facebook page – Daleks, Daleks Everywhere to keep track of items he is offering for sale.
Working in British comics publishing since the 1980s, his credits include editor of titles such as Doctor Who Magazine and Overkill for Marvel UK, Babylon 5 Magazine, Star Trek Magazine, and its successor, Star Trek Explorer, and more. He also edited the comics anthology STRIP Magazine and edited several audio comics for ROK Comics; and has edited several comic collections and graphic novels, including volumes of “Charley’s War” and “Dan Dare”, and Hancock: The Lad Himself, by Stephen Walsh and Keith Page.
He’s the writer of comics such as Pilgrim: Secrets and Lies for B7 Comics; “Crucible”, a creator-owned project with 2000AD artist Smuzz; and “Death Duty” and “Skow Dogs”, with Dave Hailwood.
