What are Slyther Monsters?

- The Dalek Invasion of Earth introduces a very interesting aspect of Skaro lore - the Slythers. These monstrous creatures are allegedly native to Skaro, and the Supreme Controller Dalek of the Earth occupation appeared to keep at least one of these creatures as a pet. In this video, we are going to take a look at the in-universe lore of the Slyther, as well as some interesting behind-the-scenes facts about Doctor Who's 'first' monster

It's like the Daleks consider Skarosian life as pure and not deserving of extinction.
Davros was also the first leader on Skaro to grant native fauna rights.
Considering how deadly and bloodthirsty Skarosian life is I bet the Daleks find them cute. Daleks look a Slythers killing humans in the same way we'd look at a cat trying to bap something in a video.
Always liked the Slyther monsters, shame it wasn't re-created in the 2nd Movie.
1:35 thank you for including this image, you just made my day.
Let's not bother him, he's on vacation.
It would be nice to see a Slyther return. With the new budget and the new effects of today it could have looked amazing. I would also like to see the Varga plants make a return.
Skaro fauna does interest me a lot! I know some dinosaur like creatures show up in a few comics, Slythers as Dalek pets though? It makes me curious that Daleks would tolerate such creatures existing.
I honestly wouldn't mind learning more bout Skaro's native radiated life forms before the planet became a radioactive desert; we rarely get to hear, if ever, about that time in Skaro's history these days which I personally think is a missed opportunity for good New Who stories.
Also I'll fully admit that humans using Slythers as boogiemen while Daleks uses Slythers as pets has a very strange but funny irony to it.
Love always seeing more Skaro life. Awesome video Dalek Bumps!
I like the Slyther monster. At first I wasn't keen on it but since first watching "The Dalek Invasion of Earth" it's grown on me. Years later when I listened to the Six Doctor tie-in story "Masters of Earth", I was quite surprised to know the Slythers make a comeback. I have a question I would like to ask you, if that is okay?
I wonder if Slither's are deliberately designed to look like huge overgrown Dalek mutant? Perhaps the ultimate Kaled form (irradiated) was evolved in the same way the kaled's were.
If I were a Supreme Dalek then I'd totally keep a Terrorkon as a pet.
as long as he had a few Marsh Daleks to keep an eye on them.
Funny you mention the slyhter being not robotic as the draft for the invasion of earth movie has it being metalic with gleaming eyes
Do you have a Theory as to why the Varga Plants Go from Being a Cactus to a Venus Fly Trap? Whether that be from some kind of Evolution or perhaps diferent types of Species of Varga?
I love seeing alien monsters.
Faxxx 🎉🎉
I love the idea of the slyther, but it can't be denied that it looks like a bloke in a sack. I don't even mind the fact thar it has an amorphous shape or anything, it's the shuffling around teeny baby steps at a time that lets it down. Be nice if it came back, though.
You know if the Daleks found it a viable tactic to capture and transport Terrorkons to other planets, they definitely would.
I Love the dalek and their pessoas, thwy should re introduce these Daleks and the pets back só we could see their paper
In the first dalek story, I love the swamp creatures which pears it's eyes and rises from the misty water, like star fish manta ray with many legs
Watching the story again recently I was caught off guard how much it creeped me out
No idea of the name
Have a soft spot for the giant clams in genesis because of the silliness
Daleks need pets too.
I was watching your dalek sec videos and I was thinking, what if sec used one of the other cult members instead of himself to turn into the hybrid. That way he remains in power but the cult members cannot mutiny.

Hi. Nobody seems to be dividing the Dal Machine Dalek empire from the Kaled Travel Vehicle empire in their Doctor Who descriptions of the Daleks. There are differences , although both machine filled bodies were easily jumped into by a doctor or human. There are Dal empire Daleks that behave much like the future Daleks of Davros, Cherry red and blue ones in the TV21 magazine. If a writer for Dr. Who could get all of the Dalek logic together, then all the precious memories of British Dr. Who watchers would not be betrayed by seeming changes to yesterdays beloved meaning (even if old Dr Who makes someone 'sad' this is still sanctity). Ex: if those Cherry and Blue Daleks were not the past copying its own future (to its own temporal error ?) then perhaps those are the "Hybrid", the Dal's would be willing to create a hybrid like that, very scientifically obsessed and alive in an unknown dimension(they made many versions of Dalek freely back then). Dal is more 'Hellenistic' and Kaled is more 'Roman'
out of curiosity where do you guys get your dalek figures, im struggling to find any good ones on Amazon and some stores.
@@gunmasterx1164 the only retailer that gets regular stocks of new Dalek figures is B&M, a new wave releases every 4-6 months but they get snapped up quickly
Otherwise eBay is a good place to look, though there are lots of scalpers who sell the sets for hugely inflated prices
@@dalekbumps thanks
What’s the bg music please fellow Dalek enjoyers?
@@spangyboi the soundtrack is "Lone Trooper" from the Command and Conquer: Tiberian Sun OST
@@dalekbumps thank you, also been a subscriber for a while now, loving the Dalek lore tidbits (on screen and behind the scenes!)
@@spangyboi thanks! I'm glad to hear it, I really enjoy making these little lore videos so that's great to hear 😊
also I realised I made a mistake in my first reply, the soundtrack isn't "Killing Machine", it's "Lone Trooper" (Killing Machine is the soundtrack of the video I'm working on right now, for some reason I got the two tracks confused even though they're nothing alike 😂)
Both tracks are from the C&C Tiberian Sun soundtrack, which I use in a lot of my videos as it has a '90s-era techno-dystopian feel that really fits the Daleks imo
@@dalekbumps my man’s the GOAT 🥰
“Daleks are not pets”
This is pure anti clam propaganda. The superior guard animal of skaro 😄
