This time I could really need some help from everybody here. Doctor Who is one of my two main projects, but I have a design problem here and I can´t decide which version is better ...
About this creation

This is my version of a Dalek. It is reduced to a very simple model, but I wanted it to fit the scale of a minifig. I was glad when I found the black technic bush which I could use as the sucker.

Then I stumbled upon this rare Suction Cup Gun and as its name indicates, it contains the perfect sucker.

Now I can use the technic bush as the eye and the cup as the sucker. Here you can see both versions compared. My problem is, that I think the Cup Gun sucker is far too big for the Dalek. Google the word 'Dalek' to compare. Which version is better? The Cup-Gun-version (1) or the technic-bush-version (2)?
I would appreciate your opinion.

The Cult of Skaro added some individual Daleks to the brilliant story of Doctor Who: Dalek Sec, Dalek Thay, Dalek Caan and Dalek Jast. Dalek Sec ist the leader (the black one). The others generally look identical, but I decided to slightly vary the color of their middle section.

Ok. When there are Daleks on the loose, there must be Davros around.

I think the LEGO® orc face is a nice alternative to a decal, though I´ll make one, since I need decals for the doctor´s suit (...) anyway.

Davros talking to some regular Daleks. As you can see, the middle section color again is different from those of the cult, but identical for every regular Dalek.

This is it for now. My goal is to do a Doctor Who brickfilm soon (or asap). Right now I´m working on the TARDIS interior (from the Russell-T-Davies-area, the Moffat version is a bit too colorful, but also not uninteresting).
Once again: I´m really looking foreward to read which Dalek version you like better (if you like one of them at all). Then it´s easier for me to decide to buy 10.000 more Cup Guns ;o)

If you haven't chosen yet I would say use the technic piece as the suction cup to keep the daleks all the same |

i think you should forget the suction cup. it is too big for the dalek. however, i do think you should put one bush for the eye and one for the suction.
Yes, I decided to go with the bush. I'm working right now on a small dio for episode 3 (season 5) with the new colourful Daleks and on one with the weeping angels. |

This is nice to hear, Alpha. Since I´m a huge fan myself, I´ll continue doing Doctor Who MOCs. Which ones I can´t say for now. Let´s wait and see. |

Thank you all for your votes and comments. Tomorrow I´ll upload pics of a new Doctor Who Episodevignette.
This time it´s from season 5.
My season 1 - 4 TARDIS INTERIOR is almost finished, too. I can tell you it IS bigger on the inside. Give me a few more weeks. |

I love the Tardis you made. It makes my lego tardis look like a blue box with a door. I'm always trying to improove my tardis but i always end up where i started. Could you give me any tips on how to make a tardis like yours? |

gorgums, thank you for your comment and your vote.
With the right decals, it´s going to be David Tennant, because I´m working on his TARDIS interior, but I love Matt Smith since the Vincent episode. Great actor. I envy you, haha. |
