They don't seem to have the same air of menace; the softer lines and overall bulkier appearance just add up to something that's really difficult to take seriously.
They've always looked like upturned 30 gallon trash buckets to me. Do they at least kill the Doctor right away, as soon as they see him? That would impress me.
I was ten the first time I saw the Daleks on TV, and they scared the shit out of me. If they don't look even vaguely scary to me, they've lost it completely.
Re the Doctor - No, they still have a bad tendency to monologue before shooting.
