History

This section's awfully stubby.

Their involvement in the Second Nestene invasion of Earth should be added.

In the 21st century, a group of around twenty Daffodil Man Autons once attacked the street in which Clifford and Jo Jones' lived. Clifford tried to contact UNIT, but failed, and Jo defeated the Autons by jacking their signals with electro hip-hop music created by the twins.

When the Twelfth Doctor and Clara Oswald were lured to the Toyroom by the Toymaker after it began to deteriorate, the Doctor was able to summon an army of toys to fight against the Toymaker; one of these toys included an Auton.
