Doctor Who Action Figure Set: "Genesis of the Daleks"

Forbidden Planet's latest Doctor Who action figures collectors set is based on the characters from 1975's "Genesis of the Daleks". The set consists of the Fourth Doctor, Davros and two Daleks.

The Time Lords send the Doctor and his companions to the planet Skaro at a point early in its history to stop the development of the Daleks so that they become less of a threat to the Universe.

However, Skaro is currently in the grip of a long war of attrition between the Kaleds and the Thals. The Kaleds' chief scientist, Davros, deformed and crippled by radiation, has been experimenting to discover the final form into which his race will mutate. He has devised a protective travel machine in which they can continue to survive. This is instantly recognised by the Doctor as a Dalek.

Escaping from the bunker where Davros and his Elite are based, the Doctor and Harry persuade the Kaled leaders to put the Dalek experiments on hold. Davros retaliates by conspiring with the Thals to destroy his own people with a rocket. He then activates his Daleks and orders them to wipe out the Thals. Once this is complete the Daleks seize control, killing the remainder of the Elite and ultimately Davros himself. Thal survivors detonate explosives at the entrance to the bunker, sealing the Daleks inside, but for how long?

In this fantastic set we present Davros and 2 'Genesis' variant Daleks along with the Fourth Doctor in his dufflecoat.

Stock is expected at Forbidden Planet's warehose on 15th April 2011. It can be pre-ordered online now at the price of £34.99.
