Previously on my channel I've posted videos of my scratchbuilt Dalek miniatures I like to build from craft store materials. But alongside making my own, I also enjoy modifying the toy Daleks that come from from Doctor Who's line of merchandise. The ones in this video are not technically all of the customs I've ever made, but the ones I left out were too uninteresting to be worth including: The ones with only the most minor of paint details or component swaps.
I generally try not to spend crazy amounts of money on any single Dalek, so my go-to practice is to buy them secondhand or damaged from Ebay and then fix it up as needed. If there's a variant I would like to have, but it's rare or expensive, I just buy one that's cheaper and repaint it into the one I wanted. More economically responsible, and also more fun! It gives the toy Daleks in my collection a personal touch that they would lack if I'd simply bought them.
Doing it this way also helps me feel slightly less silly for having so many of them, since now I can call it an arts/crafts hobby instead of a highly specific shopping addiction.
