While the basic appearance of Daleks remained the same throughout their history, there were several changes and alterations to Davros' original design of the Mark Three travel machine. Variants of the "basic" Dalek design were produced both by Davros and the Dalek Emperor/Dalek Supreme (these last two representing the major power holders in the Dalek hierarchy). Both factions of Dalek used a Dalek drone for basic combat.
The Time Lords studied and recorded the variants of the Daleks in their Dalek Combat Training Manual, published during the Last Great Time War. (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"])
History[[edit] | [edit source]]
Davros's prototypes[[edit] | [edit source]]
The Mark I was the name given by Davros to a Travel Machine prototype, the casing of the first Dalek that he created. It was an experimental life support unit modeled after his own chair. Besides the transplanted Thal brain, it included a life support matrix, an optical stalk, feeding tubes and was activated by a power conduit with only 92% distribution. (AUDIO: Guilt [+]Loading...["Guilt (audio story)"]) According to the Dalek Combat Training Manual, Davros abandoned this prototype and then his next model before settling upon the Mark III travel machine. (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"])
![](/w/images/Tardis_Images/thumb/6/69/The_Genesis.jpg/285px-The_Genesis.jpg)
According to another account, Davros' chair was the Mark I, and his initial designs were the Mark IIs. (PROSE: The History of the Daleks [+]Loading...["The History of the Daleks (short story)"]) Another account had Davros present an early prototype machine before he had constructed his own advanced chair, after which he unveiled Dalek One. (PROSE: Davros Genesis [+]Loading...["Davros Genesis (short story)"]) In any case, the Daleks were later perfected by Davros in the Mark III Travel Machine. (TV: Genesis of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Genesis of the Daleks (TV story)"])
Early in his design work Davros created Spider Daleks, which walked on a set of spider-like legs, rather than gliding across the ground. These were succeeded by Daleks known as "Strider Daleks". (PROSE: War of the Daleks [+]Loading...["War of the Daleks (novel)"])
Early history[[edit] | [edit source]]
The Dalek Emperor and Dalek Supremes were marked by having several designs that differed significantly from other Daleks. They also created altered designs under their own command.
Dalek Puppet Emperors also existed. (PROSE: Meet the Doctor [+]Loading...["Meet the Doctor (DWAN 2006 short story)"])
Designated by the Time Lords as the "Type I Dalek", (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"]) the early Dalek War Machines were distinguished from later casing models in that they had no solar slats on their middle sections. (TV: The Daleks [+]Loading...["The Daleks (TV story)"]) During the early Empire led by the Golden Emperor, Dalek variants included the War Leader Dalek, the red Storm-Blast Dalek, (COMIC: City of the Daleks [+]Loading...["City of the Daleks (comic story)"]) the Astrodalek, (COMIC: The Rogue Planet [+]Loading...["The Rogue Planet (comic story)"]) Dalek transport officials, Dalek miners and Dalek metalworkers. (PROSE: Hostage! [+]Loading...["Hostage! (short story)"])
Identified by the Thirteenth Doctor, reconnaissance scouts were the first Daleks out of Skaro. One Reconnaissance Dalek landed on Earth where, after it was first defeated, reconstructed a unique bronze casing. (TV: Resolution [+]Loading...["Resolution (TV story)"])
Coming in various colours, a War Machine variant with asymmetrical dome sections were encountered by the Second Doctor during his travels with his grandchildren John and Gillian. (PROSE: Daleks Invade Zaos [+]Loading...["Daleks Invade Zaos (short story)"], COMIC: Attack of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Attack of the Daleks (comic story)"])
Following the 2150s Dalek invasion of Earth, Earth was occupied by the Dalek Earthforce composed of a black Supreme Controller, a Dalek saucer commander with a black dome and alternating black and silver base unit panels, and silver drones. Their casings were distinguished from the earlier War Machines by their solar energy collection discs and enlarged Dalek fenders, (TV: The Dalek Invasion of Earth [+]Loading...["The Dalek Invasion of Earth (TV story)"]) designated by the Time Lords as the "Type II Dalek". (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"]) During the occupation, at least one Blue Chrono-Dalek was at the disposal of the Red Dalek. The Blue Chrono-Dalek was capable of acting alone and following the Daleks' enemies through time. (TV: Susan and the Daleks [+]Loading...["Susan and the Daleks (TV story)"])
By the Mechonoid Incident, silver Daleks led by the Black Dalek Leader dispensed with the disc and the enlarged fenders as they sported slats on their middle section, (TV: The Chase [+]Loading...["The Chase (TV story)"]) designated by the Time Lords as the "Type III Dalek". (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"]) A group of silver Daleks designated as Pursuer-Daleks were tasked with pursuing the First Doctor through time. They were supported by a variant of the earlier War Machine model distinguished by their dark domes. (TV: The Chase [+]Loading...["The Chase (TV story)"], AUDIO: The Daleks [+]Loading...["The Daleks (audio story)"])
A subordinate Dalek distinguished by its red dome supported "a red Dalek leader" during the conflict against the Space Security Service. (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"])
The Dalek Emperor who oversaw Operation Human Factor was housed in an immense silver casing (TV: The Evil of the Daleks [+]Loading...["The Evil of the Daleks (TV story)"]) and was designated by the Time Lords as "The Emperor Type I". (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"])
Designated as the "Type IV Dalek" by the Time Lords, grey Dalek drones appeared like the early prototypes created by Davros and came in various shades over the years. (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"])
As observed by Landinalakallinian, Dalek Captains commanded Dalek battalions, each battalion being comprised of two equal-sized companies commanded by a Dalek Lieutenant. Dalek Captains and Lieutenants did not seem to be distinguishable from exterior appearance, with the Gallifreyan professor suggesting that they relied on forms of radio identification signals to identify each other instead of more obvious rank markings. (PROSE: The Dalek Problem [+]Loading...["The Dalek Problem (novel)"])
During the Second Dalek War against humanity, the Supreme Dalek was supported by a Dalek Inquisitor General, designated by the humans as Dalek X. (PROSE: Prisoner of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Prisoner of the Daleks (novel)"]) Bombardier Daleks served in the war. (PROSE: Lucifer Rising [+]Loading...["Lucifer Rising (novel)"])
Designated the "Type V Dalek" by the Time Lords (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"]) were silver Daleks who participated in the Exxilon Gambit. These Daleks sported black sense globes rather than the blue ones of earlier silver Daleks. When their armament circuits were rendered useless by the Great City of the Exxilons, they made use of substitute weaponry. (TV: Death to the Daleks [+]Loading...["Death to the Daleks (TV story)"])
In the aftermath of the Dalek-Movellan War, the Supreme Dalek was assisted by subordinate ranks including an Alpha Dalek, Beta Dalek, Gamma Dalek, Delta Dalek and Epsilon Dalek. (PROSE: Resurrection of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Resurrection of the Daleks (novelisation)"], Revelation of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Revelation of the Daleks (novelisation)"])
The Dalek Time Controller was a time travelling Dalek which also operated under the title Dalek Litigator. (PROSE: The Dalek Generation [+]Loading...["The Dalek Generation (novel)"], AUDIO: Patient Zero [+]Loading...["Patient Zero (audio story)"]) Following its loss, it was replaced by the Dalek Time Strategist. (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"])
Designated as the "Type VIII Dalek" by the Time Lords, the refined bronze Dalek drones were believed to have been created for the Last Great Time War. (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"]) At the command of the Dalek Emperor, the Cult of Skaro were created. (TV: Doomsday [+]Loading...["Doomsday (TV story)"])
2254 invasion[[edit] | [edit source]]
In what may have just been a simulation created by the energies of the Land of Fiction, (PROSE: Head Games [+]Loading...["Head Games (novel)"]) Davros led the Daleks in an invasion of Earth in the year 2254, allied with a mobile and armed bronze Dalek Emperor. They were supported by the Battle Commander Daleks, a group of twelve Daleks who directed the Dalek war efforts. Dalek variants which participated in the invasion included Super Daleks, Elite Battle Daleks, red Daleks in hoverbouts which were designated as Flying Daleks. In addition, distinct Super Guardian Daleks served to secure the foothold in major cities including London, Paris, New York and Tokyo. Back on Skaro, Redesigned Daleks were present among the ranks. (GAME: Dalek Attack [+]Loading...["Dalek Attack (video game)"])
Imperial-Renegade Civil War[[edit] | [edit source]]
Following his awakening from cryogenics and an encounter with the Dalek Supreme, Davros set up a base of operations on Necros and began creating Daleks of human origin. As the name suggested, these Dalek variants were created using humans, rather than Kaled mutants. This process also employed a Glass Dalek. The casings of these Necros Daleks were distinguished from the opposing grey Daleks by their white-and-gold livery, (TV: Revelation of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Revelation of the Daleks (TV story)"]) designated as "Type VI Dalek" by the Time Lords. (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"])
In the conflict against Davros, Psyche Daleks served the Supreme Dalek. (COMIC: Emperor of the Daleks! [+]Loading...["Emperor of the Daleks! (comic story)"])
![](/w/images/Tardis_Images/thumb/1/15/Dalek_scout_one.jpg/285px-Dalek_scout_one.jpg)
Davros later refined his Daleks into the Imperial Daleks, (TV: Remembrance of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)"]) designated as the "Type VII Dalek". (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"]) Naming himself Emperor, Davros operated a unique casing. (TV: Remembrance of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)"])
Both Davros and the Dalek Emperor were known to use Special Weapons Dalek variants in combat situations: Davros used one during the Shoreditch Incident, whilst the Dalek Emperor utilised several in various campaigns.

Restoration Empire[[edit] | [edit source]]
Following an Imperial Dalek victory in the Imperial-Renegade Dalek Civil War was the Restoration Empire, which may have only came into existence due to divergences in time. With refined "Type VIII"-shaped casings, this Empire was led by a new golden Emperor who established a Dalek Time Squad made up of Time-Sensitive Daleks. Supported by Dalek drones who were coloured like the earlier silver Daleks, (PROSE: The Restoration Empire [+]Loading...["The Restoration Empire (short story)"]) subordinate to a grey Dalek. (COMIC: Defender of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Defender of the Daleks (comic story)"]) The Dalek Prime Strategist was an old Dalek who was distinguished by his aged Dalek War Machine casing. The Dalek Time Commander was a silver Dalek distinguished by its silver sense globes. The Scientist Dalek's silver casing was distinguished by a red dome and livery. Dalek Executioners were repurposed Special Weapons Daleks that now operated conventional casings distinguished by a black dome and livery with a red eye lens and claw manipulator. (PROSE: The Restoration Empire [+]Loading...["The Restoration Empire (short story)"])
Last Great Time War[[edit] | [edit source]]
The Dalek Emperor in the Last Great Time War was housed in an immense bronze casing (TV: The Parting of the Ways [+]Loading...["The Parting of the Ways (TV story)"]) and was designated by the Time Lords as "The Emperor Type II". (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"])
The Nightmare Child was the first and only specimen of a new type of Dalek created by Davros during the first year of the Time War. (PROSE: The Third Wise Man [+]Loading...["The Third Wise Man (short story)"])
A new breed of Dalek fielded in the Time War, Berserker Daleks were deployed on simpler tasks, which required nothing more than extermination of a population, as they were incapable of strategy due to their lower intelligence. (AUDIO: Rewind [+]Loading...["Rewind (audio story)"])
Dalek hunter drones were designed for reconnaissance activities in the Time War. According to Norvid, most hunter drones were not equipped with weaponry, although hunter drones of the Hunter class possessed two gunsticks, (AUDIO: The Conscript [+]Loading...["The Conscript (audio story)"]) and the hunter drones active during the Dalek invasion of the Obsidian Nebula also possessed weaponry. (AUDIO: The Lady of Obsidian [+]Loading...["The Lady of Obsidian (audio story)"]) A Hunter Dalek designated Hunter Dalek 4-3, was ordered by the Dalek Emperor to pursue the associates of Romana II. (AUDIO: Dissolution [+]Loading...["Dissolution (audio story)"])
Prime Dalek was a rank in the Dalek hierarchy which the War Doctor was unfamiliar with when he first heard it during the Time War. (AUDIO: The Thousand Worlds [+]Loading...["The Thousand Worlds (audio story)"])
Whilst in the Neverwhen, the Daleks evolved through several variants including Special Weapons, spider degradations, and Diamond Daleks. (AUDIO: The Neverwhen [+]Loading...["The Neverwhen (audio story)"])
The Disruptor Dalek was capable of displacing those it shot through space and time. It appeared as a big, grey and black Dalek, with its top resembling a glass ball. (AUDIO: The Lady of Obsidian [+]Loading...["The Lady of Obsidian (audio story)"])
The Eternity Circle were a council of five Daleks distinguished by their blue casings with silver domes and globes. They created the Predator Dalek, intended for the War Doctor to become its Dalek Mutant, and Temporal Weapon Daleks armed with Temporal Cannons that could erase their targets from time. (PROSE: Engines of War [+]Loading...["Engines of War (novel)"])
A unique unit during the conflict was the Dalek Time Strategist, the successor to the Dalek Time Controller, its casing a purple coloured variation of the red Dalek Supreme model that first appeared in the Second Dalek War. (AUDIO: The Shadow Vortex [+]Loading...["The Shadow Vortex (audio story)"])
Distinguished by its black casing with a red eye lens and multiple appendages from its weapons platform, the Overseer was a unique Dalek designed as an expert in genetic manipulation, the mutant itself being a mixture of other species. It was exterminated by its subordinates after failing in its mission. (AUDIO: Planet of the Ogrons [+]Loading...["Planet of the Ogrons (audio story)"])
Post-Time War[[edit] | [edit source]]
Following the Last Great Time War several new Dalek variants were created, both embryos, not technically a variant, but rather an attempt to recreate the original Dalek mutation. (TV: Daleks in Manhattan [+]Loading...["Daleks in Manhattan (TV story)"])
Following Dalek Caan's intervention, a new Supreme Dalek was created, along with Vault Dalek to guard and maintain the vault of the Crucible. (TV: The Stolen Earth [+]Loading...["The Stolen Earth (TV story)"])
After the fall of the New Dalek Empire, a trio of bronze Dalek drones, (PROSE: Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe [+]Loading...["Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe (short story)"]) found themselves stranded in 1941. They concocted a plan to have the Eleventh Doctor identify them as Daleks to the Progenitor, an ancient Dalek instrument containing "pure Dalek DNA". This involved two of the Daleks being disguised as green Ironsides, ostensibly robots created for the British war effort in World War II. Once this plan succeeded, the Progenitor created five new specimens, with five larger and colour-coded cases: a white Supreme, orange Scientist, blue Strategist and red Drone Dalek along with the unique yellow Eternal Dalek. Naming themselves the New Dalek Paradigm, these five proceeded to destroy their "inferior" forebears, and fled to their "own time" through a time corridor to start anew a restored Dalek legacy. (TV: Victory of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Victory of the Daleks (TV story)"]) In one instance, a Chief Strategist oversaw subordinate Strategist Daleks, to whom it appeared identical. (COMIC: The Only Good Dalek [+]Loading...["The Only Good Dalek (comic story)"])
In a alternate timeline which was negated by the Doctor, the New Paradigm was led by a blue Emperor Dalek. (GAME: City of the Daleks [+]Loading...["City of the Daleks (video game)"]) Later, whilst collecting the Eternity Clock, the Doctor fought a purple Dalek Emperor. (GAME: The Eternity Clock [+]Loading...["The Eternity Clock (video game)"])
In the Total Collapse Event Incident, the Daleks, having been all but erased from history, were reduced to afterimages, the Stone Daleks, before the Eleventh Doctor rebooted the universe in Big Bang Two. (TV: The Big Bang [+]Loading...["The Big Bang (TV story)"])
While the New Paradigm initially mass-produced its new design of casing, (GAME: City of the Daleks [+]Loading...["City of the Daleks (video game)"], COMIC: The Only Good Dalek [+]Loading...["The Only Good Dalek (comic story)"]) the many defeats that the Eleventh Doctor would go on to inflict upon this design caused other species to lose their fear of the Daleks. Reorganising their command structure, the resurrected Dalek Empire reestablished the Parliament of the Daleks under the leadership of the Prime Minister of the Daleks who changed the Paradigm's first style of casing to a seldom seen "officer-class" and returned the active infantry to the designs used in the Last Great Time War. The five founders, retaining their original casing design, were reduced to a token presence in the Parliament with several Red Drones overseeing their bronze subordinates. (TV: Asylum of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Asylum of the Daleks (TV story)"], PROSE: Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe [+]Loading...["Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe (short story)"]) The thousand of bronze Daleks in the Parliament were designated Dalek governors. (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"])
As part of the Dalek Project, the Daleks saw that Proto-Daleks were constructed by the British and the Germans during the First World War, resulting in distinct British Proto-Daleks and German Proto-Daleks. The Daleks themselves fielded Aqua-Dalek units underwater. In 2017, human archeologists assembled a Dalek casing which the Eleventh Doctor named a Quasimodo Dalek.

In time, the Paradigm casings seemed to vanish from the post-War empire. Instead, bronze casings remained the standard design of drones, while Black Dalek and the red Supreme casings re-emerged as officer classes. Older casings designs like the Dalek War Machine and Imperial Special Weapons Dalek also returned.

On Skaro in the far future, the First Doctor saw Daleks patrolling Zone X. (COMIC: The Test of Time [+]Loading...["The Test of Time (comic story)"])
Splinter groups[[edit] | [edit source]]
The first generation of humanised Daleks appeared as basic silver Daleks, designated "test Daleks", who rebelled against their counterparts as well as the black-domed Emperor's Personal Guard. (TV: The Evil of the Daleks [+]Loading...["The Evil of the Daleks (TV story)"]) The casings of the humanised Daleks that lived on Kyrol came in a diverse range of colours. Alpha, of the original generation, changed his casing to serve as Red Dalek leader. His second was a Black Dalek, named Makkith. Below them were the Blue Daleks, the only other humanised Daleks to be armed with gunsticks. The majority of the humanised Daleks, however, were distinct from the Skarosian Daleks in that their weapons platforms sported only a manipulator arm, with a vacant space where the gunstick would be; these disarmed Daleks were, however, able to use their psychokinetic energy to defend themselves. Green Daleks such as Adellus functioned as scientists, while other Daleks were coloured Yellow, Orange and Purple. (COMIC: Children of the Revolution [+]Loading...["Children of the Revolution (comic story)"])
The Orcini New Daleks were intended by their pacifist creator, Gonzo Orcini, to be a refined version of the "Old Daleks" created by Davros. Their hierarchy included Third Class Dalek Leader and First Class Dalek Leader. (PROSE: War and Peace [+]Loading...["War and Peace (short story)"])
Mutant Daleks were created on Red Rocket Rising by the human Professor Martez. They were exterminated by the original Daleks. (AUDIO: Blood of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Blood of the Daleks (audio story)"])
Having been resurrected with traces of human DNA, the Reconnaissance Dalek used Leo Rugazzi to create a New Dalek Army, which were ostensibly "Defence Drones" to protect the United Kingdom. They attempted to conquer Earth only to be exterminated by the Death Squad Daleks. (TV: Revolution of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Revolution of the Daleks (TV story)"])
Parallel universes[[edit] | [edit source]]
In a parallel universe, the Thaleks were a species that conquered half of Mutter's Spiral. Their war cry was "Annihilate!". (AUDIO: Auld Mortality [+]Loading...["Auld Mortality (audio story)"])
The Alliance Daleks, so-named by the Earth Alliance to distinguish them from the Enemy Daleks during the Enemy-Alliance Dalek War, were Daleks from a parallel universe, who were created by the Mentor. They crossed over to N-Space at the end of the Second Great Dalek Occupation. (AUDIO: Project Infinity [+]Loading...["Project Infinity (audio story)"])
In one of the infinite parallel universes of "possible space", the Daleks were half-insectoid, half-humanoid mutants in casings that had a spider-like appearance, able to fold and unfold. (COMIC: Fire and Brimstone [+]Loading...["Fire and Brimstone (comic story)"]) These Daleks were also carnivorous, able to devour those they killed. (PROSE: The Chronicles of Doctor Who?

Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]
Merchandise[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Dapol, which produced a range of toys based on the classic series of Doctor Who, released an original Christmas-themed Dalek (W008-XMAS), which had a green body with a golden dome, eyepiece, gunstick, and manipulator arm, with a red neck grille, slats and sense globes.
- For the Video Gift Set release of The Five Doctors, an exclusive Dapol action figure was made similar to the blue Madame Tussauds Dalek colour scheme.
- Dapol released a set of six "Millennium Daleks" to commemorate the millennium. Sparkly with a golden neck grille, slats and sense globes, the six Daleks' main casings were respectively coloured blue (W008-M1), red (W008-M2), green (W008-M3), purple (W008-M4), black (W008-M5) and silver (W008-M6).
- Released by Character Options for the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who, the "British Icon Dalek" was a dark blue "Type VIII Dalek" variant with white livery and the Union Flag pattern on its front from the dome section down to the lower section, with 2013 in place of the ID tag.
- The "Dalek Patrol Ship" sets released in 2014 by Character Options included an exclusive 3.75-inch bronze "Dalek pilot" figurine bearing a black dome and alternating black "skirt" panels identical to the colour scheme of the Dalek saucer commander originally seen in The Dalek Invasion of Earth.
- In addition, Character Options released a "Dalek security patrol ship". This "stealth" version included a Dalek pilot coloured predominantly black with a red dome and silver slats and sense globes.
- In 2014, Character Options released a Dalek Invasion of Earth set with the colours of the Black Supreme and Silver Dalek drone applied to the bronze Dalek model.[1]
Other matters[[edit] | [edit source]]
- In the film Dr. Who and the Daleks, a Black Dalek, supported by a Red Dalek, led blue Dalek drones. In Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D., a Gold Dalek, supported by a Black Dalek and a Red Dalek, led silver Dalek drones.
- The Redesigned Daleks seen in Dalek Attack were originally created by Raymond Cusick (who had designed the original Dalek casings for The Daleks in 1963) for the Doctor Who Magazine Tenth Anniversary Special in 1989. The in-universe context presented for the schematics, "The New Daleks" written by John Freeman, was that Cusicks' drawings were Davros' direct blueprints for a new and stronger race of Daleks which may destroy the current one if ever built.
- Upon completing the game The Last Dalek, the player achieves a rank depending on their progress. From lowest to highest; Standard Dalek, Imperial Dalek, Supreme Dalek, Dalek Prime, Dalek Ultima, Dalek Emperor. Distinctly, the rank of "Dalek Ultima" is not derived from any story.
- The online game Dalek Hack features a bronze-type casing divided into three sections, the top dome and grating section, the middle weapons platform and the bottom base unit. For customisation, a choice of six colours can be applied to each of the sections: a Black Dalek with gold livery matching that of the Dalek Inquisitor General with the colours of the following Daleks reflecting the five archetypes of the New Dalek Paradigm, being Red, Blue, Yellow, Orange and White.
- The cover of Gallifrey: War Room 1: Allegiance featured new Time War-era Dalek models rendered by James Johnson,[2] the Dalek Commander and the Reconnaissance Dalek. Ahead of release, Johnson released a closer look at his designs.[3] He clarified that the accompanying text wasn't in any way official, and that he added it "just for fun".[4]
