* Dalek X's colour scheme is vastly similar to the colour scheme of the [[Dalek Supreme (Planet of the Daleks)|Supreme Dalek]] from ''[[Planet of the Daleks (TV story)|Planet of the Daleks]]'', though lacking a [[gold]] [[dome]]. This is known because it is based on the [[Character Options]] black and gold RC Dalek from the battle pack released in 2005.

=== Audio release ===
* The story was released as an audiobook on 5x CD read by [[Nicholas Briggs]]. He uses his voice modulator to read Dalek dialogue in a Dalek voice. This became standard practice for any future audiobook featuring the Daleks. with Briggs lending his voice to all Dalek dialogue, even if he was not the main narrator.
** Previously, the audiobooks of ''[[Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks (novelisation)|Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks]]'', ''[[Doctor Who and the Space War (novelisation)|Doctor Who and the Space War]]'' and the [[1995 (releases)|1995]] release of ''[[Doctor Who and the Planet of the Daleks (novelisation)|Doctor Who and the Planet of the Daleks]]'' had not adopted this practice but it would next be used in the [[Audiobooks of novelisations|audio release]] of ''[[Doctor Who and the Dalek Invasion of Earth (novelisation)|Doctor Who and the Dalek Invasion of Earth]]''.
** However, the same practice had already been adopted for the [[Cyberman|Cybermen]], as the audio release of ''[[Doctor Who and the Cybermen (novelisation)|Doctor Who and the Cybermen]]'' predated ''Prisoner of the Daleks'' by just over a month.
=== Outside UK release ===
* It was released in [[Brazil]] by Suma de Letras in 2015 as ''O Prisioneiro dos Daleks''.
* It was released in [[Russia]] by AST in 2016 as ''Пленник далеков''.
* It was released in [[Germany]] by Cross Cult in 2020 as ''Gefangener der Daleks''.
* It was released in [[China]] by New Star Press in 2020 as ''戴立克之囚''.
* It was released in [[Spain]] by Dolmen Editorial in 2021 as ''Prisionero de los Daleks''.
