NEWS: Well, it doesn't mention the Peter Cushing Dr Who movies of 1965 /66 on the box ...or indeed Peter Cushing, but apparently, this doesn't matter.. strange for a dedicated huge fan following, that usually only deals in canons and specifics? Anyway, here goes:
PRESS RELEASE FROM THE COMPANY, Character Options : Character Options have announced an exclusive new #Dalek set, featuring the Daleks from the 1965 First Doctor adventure, The Chase.
Al Dewar, #CharacterOptions’ Head of Product Development, explains why these Daleks are a special collectible for Doctor Who fans: “Firstly it’s the final adventure for the last of the original #TARDIS companions, Ian and Barbara, but it also features the first and last appearance of a race of robotic creatures the #Mechanoids. Dalek aficionados will also know that it marks the appearance of some rather 'special guest' Dalek props that were seen in Episodes 3 and 5. At the time of filming the BBC were short of Dalek props having only three left. New Daleks were commissioned, but to fill the gap, they hired three Dalek props from the ‘#DoctorWho and The Daleks’ movie.” Er, that would be, 'DR WHO and the Daleks', then . . 😏

SO, THE 'JUNGLES OF MECHHANUS' set . . . . are two unaltered props glimpsed several times as part of the Dalek patrols pursuing the TARDIS crew through the Jungle, in the episode. They are distinctively different, with light covers and skirt bases along with unique metallic colours, this set brings the fans and collectors a one-off unique TV Dalek #ActionFigure never produced before.
AH, RIGHT! Amazing! . . . great to see, Cushing's 'Dr Who' and the films, finally receive some connection and credit... no wait....😵😧😒😏
