Show of your true love for all things Doctor Who with this Dalek Hoodie. Put it on, and you’ll be instantly transformed into one of the most violent races in the universe.

The sweater takes inspiration for the [villainous Daleks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saint-mxxxxxx) from the popular Doctor Who franchise. The graphics include all the little necessary balls, and the plunger and whisk attachment; not to mention the fake lights on the head to complete the look.

The [gray hoodie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deep-sea-diver) is comfortable and warm with just the right amount of deadly power that’ll make you look and feel like the Doctor’s nemesis.

This is the ideal gift for a Doctor Who fan, a cosplayer or anyone who enjoys costume parties and fan conventions.
