A look at what could have been the Supreme Dalek in 2008!

 

The Supreme Dalek created for the Season Four finale went through many design variations in its development. Concept artist Peter McKinstry worked extremely quickly during January of 2008 to produce a range of options for showrunner Russell T. Davies to consider.

Doctor Who Figurine Collection Time Lords Set #1

Available to order from www.forbiddenplanet.com

 

“I’m a Time Lord. I walk in eternity.”

Based on the Doctor’s encounters with other members of their Gallifreyan race, the Doctor Who Time Lords sets will give fans an opportunity to collect some of the most memorable masters of the space-time continuum.

Each of the five sets will contain two Time Lords, faithfully recreated as hand-painted polyresin figurines at 1:21 scale (approximately 3.5 inches tall), complete with an in-depth companion magazine – highlighting the history, costumes, and stories behind these characters from the longest-running science fiction show on television!

The first Doctor Who Time Lords box set reunites two old friends – The Curator (Tom Baker) and the second incarnation of Romana (Lalla Ward).

The Curator was a mysterious Time Lord played by Tom Baker, the iconic actor behind the Fourth Doctor. In his brief meeting with Matt Smith’s Doctor, he hinted that he might be another incarnation of the Doctor – who knows? Who knows. The figurine captures the older Time Lord’s pensive air, one arm leaning on a cane and the other stroking his chin.

Romana (or Romanadvoratrelundar) was a rare Time Lord companion on the Doctor’s adventures, and (even rarer) his academic superior. Initially haughty, she and the Doctor soon warmed to each other. The figurine depicts Romana in her second incarnation, played by Lalla Ward, clad in her voluminous scarf and coat (echoing the Doctor’s own iconic outfit).

The Curator & Romana Box Set is going to be solicited in the January Diamond PREVIEWS catalogue, and will be available direct from HeroCollector.com or your favourite retailer in March 2020.

The box set joins Hero Collector’s ongoing range of 1:21 scale Doctor Who figurines, which explore aliens, monsters, robots, humans and Doctors from over five decades of classic science fiction TV.

Here we have a rare Rolykins with his electrode unit!

 

The unit featured a double-pronged aerial wrapped in a coil of electro-magnetic wire, bolted to a large, parabolic dish. When in operation, the dish spun, delivering focussed EM radiation towards where the Daleks have detected an anomaly in the rock. The device could operate at varying power levels and, with no immediate effect, the force was increased.

The use of the Electrode Unit successfully overrode the control systems hidden behind the wall and it triggered a 'conveyor' to descend, allowing the Daleks to infiltrate the Mechonoid city. Once again the Daleks used science to gain an advantage.

A look at what the Supreme Dalek may have looked like!

 

The Supreme Dalek created for the Season Four finale went through many design variations in its development. Concept artist Peter McKinstry worked extremely quickly during January of 2008 to produce a range of options for showrunner Russell T. Davies to consider.

McKinstry was keen to have the new Dalek leader lock into a throne to increase its stature and echo the design of the Dalek Emperor for the 1967 story 'The Evil of the Daleks', although this idea was ultimately dropped in the attempts to scale back the cost of the new prop.

 

For the final version, McKinstry's took inspiration from the 1960s design of the Soviet satellite Sputnik and focussed on having a spherical head with antenna protruding. The head was intended to be like a fish-bowl with hexagonal texturing allowing the insides to be glimpsed. This was slowly rationalised to make the head a more normal dome, and the antennae were beefed up to become thick supporting blocks styled like the shoulder slats.

 

I liked this version that was never made for The Stolen Earth episode June, 2008!
