Dalek Collector gains Guinness World Record

The 2012 Guinness World Records features the man with the largest collection of Daleks in the world.

Rob Hull, a 49 year old from Doncaster in South Yorkshire, is recognised for having the largest collection of the deadly assassins from Skaro, with a total of 571 models, collected over 20 years.

The collection contains Daleks large and small including a 1.8 metre (6ft) lifesize replica model. He brought his first Dalek at 29 and has been collecting them ever since, despite not being a fan of Doctor Who.

Hull's wife Dawn is not celebrating the record.


Doctor Who, is already the holder of two Guinness World Records, having been named the Worlds Most successful sci-fi series in 2009 as well as being the Longest running sci-fi series. Last year Doctor Who Magazine was named as the world's Longest Running Magazine Based on a Television Series.
