Doctor Who B&M 2022 History of the Daleks Set 11
The five new Doctor Who classic lines will be available in November 2022 at B&M stores nationwide.
This action figure set includes:
- Genesis Dalek Drone B
- Genesis Dalek Drone C
Please note the official image is of the SAME Dalek, Please see box image Below for differences in ears, gun arm ball joint and oval.
Official Image:
The Dalek figures here represent two of the four Daleks used in this story. It might be expected that a story concerning the origins of the Daleks would mean that they would be refurbished to match that of the original 60’s Daleks, however because this story was so drastically different, and set in an unending war zone, the Daleks were a shiny gun metal grey.
A VERY rough mock-up of the differences between the 2 Daleks
This was in keeping with the militaristic tones of the story. Although it is one of the simpler colour schemes in the Dalek’s history, the ‘Genesis’ Daleks have gone on to be one of the most iconic.
Speaking of this wave of releases Al Dewar, Creative Director at Character Options, said: “This range has some real gems in it, including some not so easy to spot ones. The three figure sets are very cool and there’s at least one standout figure in each set, including a new Ninth Doctor with new components and an updated Rose V1. We also have a brand-new Angel variant as well as a physically new version of Yaz. Collectors will delight in looking for both variants of the Angel figure.
“With the Dalek sets – this time we have two absolute standout pieces with ‘Genesis of the Daleks’ and my personal favourite Dalek story ‘Destiny of the Daleks’. For me it has everything and I love the look of the battered war worn Daleks. Following that and much to my own delight, is a new First Doctor figure in the form of David Bradley’s Doctor paired with a very unique looking TARDIS based more on the TARDIS look in the BBC 2013 anniversary drama story which covered the creation of the TV series.
“Lastly to go hand in hand with the Dalek sets is a great special release featuring Davros and a very special Dalek … all I can say is fans will not want to miss out on that one!”

February 4th, 2023 - 3:17pmStill 2 of these sets in the Kirkcaldy retail park store.

December 23rd, 2022 - 7:42pmThere’s still absolutely loads of these at Anglia Retail Park Ipswich. Wish I could post a pic. It’s impressive!
BADWOLFY
December 7th, 2022 - 7:57pmThey’ve got a large stock of these at Anglia Retail Park B&M in Ipswich. There were loads last week and there’s still loads today! Not sure when they arrived as I’m late to the party on this one. Wasn’t expecting a release so soon after Planet/Death Dalek sets so I didn’t check!
David Minter
December 1st, 2022 - 8:35pmFor US buyers, WhoNA has a stock of 9 of these. They in non-mint packaging, however.

December 1st, 2022 - 5:40pmAbsolutely hate the box design on these new Dalek packs!
Alydon2007
December 1st, 2022 - 6:16pmAgreed… I disliked the new packaging so much that I’m no longer collecting them, and am off-loading the 10 sets I got so far…
But when you think about it, these are marketed as “collectors editions”, and the packaging is – I would argue – an integral part of that, especially if you are displaying them in the box. Imagine if Hatchette had changed the design of their DOCTOR WHO – THE COMPLETE HISTORY series halfway through the run…

June 2nd, 2023 - 7:46amSame here. Utterly hideous design. And they stick out like a sore thumb compared to the first 8 sets. One consolation is that from this year the history sets will be solid cased.

November 14th, 2022 - 9:36pmWhen the seller’s had the chance to buy them from their local B&M, plus delivery time?
Daniel Simmonds
November 9th, 2022 - 2:48amNow feature on the B&M website but not available to purchase online, in store only.
booboo
November 9th, 2022 - 9:52amtaken off now, probably a test, although people seems to have missed the “in store only” part
John
November 9th, 2022 - 2:17pmThe others all said in store only when they went on test online didn’t they?
The Werewolf
October 30th, 2022 - 10:25pmThe only Genesis Dalek I have is the one from the Toys R Us 2 pack and it is missing its gun arm so happy to get this set and the Davros 2 pack.
Anthony Fagn
November 1st, 2022 - 9:18amYet another Genesis release and oh look ANOTHER one this time with Davros. Why this particular dalek gets made several times over is beyond me. The story itself is over rated. Give me seeds of doom or talons of weng chiang anyday…
Alan
October 27th, 2022 - 4:14pmI really like how these look. The only downside is that the Genesis Daleks I already own are going to look like imitations compared to these.
The ergon
October 27th, 2022 - 4:26pmNever settle for second best Alan.

October 26th, 2022 - 2:38pmThis will be good to get because the only classic daleks I have are from history of the daleks set 5 because I was only able to find that set but I am getting history of the daleks set 10 for Christmas
Ryan Rosamilia
October 26th, 2022 - 8:52pmCan you get these in the United States
?
booboo
October 27th, 2022 - 9:20amThere is no distributor in the USA at the moment sadly
Drwhofan12
October 27th, 2022 - 9:18amI’m from the uk and I’m going to pick up history of the daleks set 9 today I’m getting set 10 for Christmas
David Minter
October 29th, 2022 - 11:34pmAs a fellow US buyer, your best bet is to check out WhoNA.com. They usually get in a small stock of about 10 or 20 of each set. I check that site every day after they start appearing in the UK. So, I check here everyday to see if they’ve been released, then check WhoNA.com every day afterwards. 🙂
Spike Hellyer
October 30th, 2022 - 10:43amThe only thing that I am not sure about with this set is that they look like re releases and they are both identical so I see no point in buying this set
Toast
October 30th, 2022 - 8:51pmThey have some differences
John b. o
October 25th, 2022 - 6:28pmlets hope B+M online ALL of these new figures!!
John
October 30th, 2022 - 9:20pmThey can’t. The Daleks share a code so can’t be differentiated for sale.
WhoBags
October 25th, 2022 - 5:48pmThere’s a CO video on YouTube and the sets look more gun metal grey. The Davros set in particular is pretty stunning. Don’t know why they’ve turned the comments off though.
booboo
October 25th, 2022 - 5:53pmThey always do, and the video has been on here for a while
Anon
October 25th, 2022 - 6:26pmThe comments are disabled because of Youtube’s COPPA Made for Kids rule. Or at least that’s what I speculate.
Cuddiemonkie
October 25th, 2022 - 5:35pmHoping that the electronic tardis is easy to pick up or will be available to order online. I was hoping that this would be a character exclusive because you can more or less guarantee to purchase one.
Missed out on the Hartnell tardis and was so didapointed. Distribution not great for some of these sets. Seems to be hit or miss.
Jamie
October 26th, 2022 - 8:57pmI’d Love The Daleks Sets To Arrive In The UK By Early November
Cuddiemonkie
October 25th, 2022 - 5:00pmWhy is this set 2
It clearly says genesis of the daleks set 2
Is this another error?
booboo
October 25th, 2022 - 5:02pmsounds like it
masterdoctorten
October 25th, 2022 - 5:23pmBecause the Davros set says Genesis of the Daleks – they are treating that as Set 1
booboo
October 25th, 2022 - 5:26pmThere was supposed to be another set, i think things just got confused
Stiki
October 25th, 2022 - 4:56pmNo Ovals on the Gun/ Arm Box? Perhaps these are meant to represent the Goons seen at the end of the Story?
Toast
October 26th, 2022 - 10:01amIn the video one of them seems to have an oval
booboo
October 26th, 2022 - 10:04amThey have used the same Dalek Again for the promos, there are some differences between the 2 including the oval
pupbenny
October 25th, 2022 - 4:13pmThey’ve chosen a really odd colour for these, why are they brown? They don’t look like the distinctive grey of the Genesis Daleks at all. I can’t tell, but looking at the first image it seems like they’re both exactly the same? If so, that’s a shame as they’re missing a trick not having one of them have a silver gun, like they’ve released previously.
Also just realised the irony of me complaining about the gun being dark not silver (on one of them anyway) when I was complaining about the opposite for the Death To The Daleks set lol.
HS
October 29th, 2022 - 2:55pmThey’re not brown mate, that’s just the lighting. If you look at the review and presentation videos on YouTube you can see the actual colour and its great.
booboo
October 29th, 2022 - 3:09pmwe only have the official images sent to us to go by, you shouldn’t have to look at youtube videos to see the correct colour.
David Minter
October 25th, 2022 - 2:36pmLooks like CO is going to stay with the cheaper packaging, removing the “window” from the History boxes and use a formed plastic over the items in the back of the box. I don’t know, but it would seem to me to be more expensive to tool specific covers and shape them to the individual items in the boxes than to just stick with one large sheet of plastic.
HS
October 26th, 2022 - 7:39pmThe Creation of the Daleks set will have the window box style and have a backdrop too.
Drwhofan12
October 25th, 2022 - 1:35pmNo picture of this one in the box ?
Drwhofan12
February 1st, 2023 - 2:29pmAbout to picking this one or set 12 uo
Drwhofan12
February 1st, 2023 - 5:17pmDidn’t have any
The ergon
October 25th, 2022 - 1:20pmAre these more screen accurate booboo? i m sure they looked that shade in those dimly lit corridors in Genesis but they were standard grey on their original release.
booboo
October 25th, 2022 - 1:27pmmy screen must be a bit off they actually look more brown to me
Judooning
October 25th, 2022 - 12:00pmDoes anyone think they look more chocolate brown than gun metal grey? I still like the look of them however.
The Outcast
October 25th, 2022 - 12:30pmYeah, I thought that too. Indeed, I’d say the Dalek colours seem a fair bit more off this time round. But that might just be in this promo photos, in hand they might look a lot better, since the inbox Davros and Dalek pack Dalek seems to look a lot better.
HS
October 26th, 2022 - 7:41pmYeah it is the lighting. Theres a review of it on youtube and you can see the actual colour better there.
