It struck me recently that the Daleks still look almost exactly the same as they did over fifty years ago, with the sole exception that today's Daleks come in a variety of colors.
1964:
2015:
While I'm perfectly happy with the status quo, I am curious: Did the Doctor Who creators ever consider significantly redesigning the appearance of the Dalek race, rather than simply adding a few colors, rare variations or one-off hybrids?
If the question isn't clear enough, the difference between today's Cybermen and "Mondasian" Cybermen would be a good example of what I'd call a "significant redesign". The 2005 Dalek redesign definitely doesn't count; I would never have realized it happened at all if it weren't for the articles written about it.
