This “clash” of DW eras is amazing. I’m just hoping it was an April Fool joke.

The official website never confirmed all the Daleks from the shows history would be in it. What it said was “ut which design? The answer is ALL OF THEM!” – that could mean anything.

If we were really to get every design you’d be looking at a very, very long list and if it were true would that mean we’d get the cr@ppy voiced ones from Day of the Daleks? Yeah, I don’t think so.

It’s more likely it’ll be ones from the RTD era and Moffat era for obvious reasons, but I would loved to see a return for the 60s Daleks.

Yikes, I meant “wasn’t”.

I think we will get RTD, Moffat & some from the “classic” series, such as this battered example.

Now THAT is a Dalek!

@Mike Humphreys I agree with you on that.

@Borusa
Look in the picture above, that’s a classic series Dalek, not RTD or Moffat. Whether it will move, or just be an abandoned old design is another matter.

@TWWL
That was just taken for Moffat’s Twitter page after Matt Smith said he likes the 60s Daleks the best. Again, it’s not evidence to show that all the Daleks will be returning, and if they were I think they’d keep a little more secret.

Sorry to sound negative and blunt, but people are jumping to conclusions, this site in particular with a previous article claiming the official website had confirmed the return of all the Daleks, which isn’t true until we definitely see it.

@TWWL
Also remember yesterday was April Fool’s Day, so that picture could have also been taken as a hoax to make people think all incarnations of the Daleks are back.

@Borusa
Sure, but from what has been said, it certainly seems like we may see a few different Daleks; if it ends up that we don’t, it’s no big deal, but it’s nice to speculate.

in the background i can make out a 2005-2010 model dusty/stone dalek?

@Borusa
Even so, the five “sneaky” photos (which were not released on April 1st) certainly showed a Classic Dalek. It’s possible, of course, that this was an attempt to mislead us and get us talking, but it seems more likely that at least one Classic model is returning.

@Rosalie
I couldn’t see a classic Dalek…

@Me
One of the images showed a black Dalek base in the Classic style.

I would be really happy to see the return of EVERY Dalek, but surely Davros must return! I would love to see that!

@Tom Versey I think the Daleks work better without Davros. They become very second nature to the plot when Davros is pulled out.

I did like Julian Bleach as Davros and it would be great to think he survived the destruction of the Dalek Crucible.

I mean, if his Command Ship can fly into the jaws of the Nightmare Child and Dalek Caan can come back and save him, there must be any number of ways he could have survived.

Having said that, I agree with Steve. When Davros is with his Daleks, there’s a power struggle.

Davros sometimes has the upper hand and the Daleks seem to bend to his will, making them feel weaker, like the Ironsides were to the Teletubby Daleks.

Otherwise, the Daleks almost kept Davros as their pet at the end of Series 4, which greatly weakened his image.

So when the Daleks and Davros are together, there’s always this power struggle happening between, distracting the Daleks from doing what they do.

I like Davros, but I also liked not having him in every Dalek episode. He’d gotten to be too much on the old series, since he was in every single one starting with “Genesis of the Daleks”. By the time he returned on the new series, I was ready to see him again, and it was a delight! So I agree that the Daleks can become secondary when there’s a story with him in it. That’s not always a bad thing, but it means it must be done sparingly because it limits the sort of stories you can do.

I very much want to see a Classic Dalek or two on the new series. That would be awesome. ;-)

@Tom Versey
i love davros and would like to see him return again :)

@David

i guarantee you sir, this is no april fools joke :)
