Dalek Attack Saucers
« on: December 30, 2020, 07:01:48 PM »
Heads-up for anybody in the USA.  I got these toy UFOs at the Dollar Tree.  I think they will make great Dalek attack saucers.  They are a little more than 13cm in diameter & about 8cm tall. 
This is my boomstick!

That's a great find!  Hoping that Canadian Dollar Trees follow suit

Wow, those would be perfect for 15mm also.  Thanks!  I didn’t even know Daleks had saucers.

PS.  If they are made in China, then soon they’ll appear everywhere.  I can’t wait to see how they’re primed and painted though.  Those shiny molded plastics don't always take primers well.

They look like they could be good for 15mm Steampunk, VSF, or even underwater shelters!
Just remember "If the Enemy is in range, so are YOU!

the early/original (1960s) Daleks had saucers.
They also had small one-man/Dalek flying disks with a handrail around them....
