About this deal

In the revival series, some Cybermen who have interacted with the Doctor have been portrayed by actor Paul Kasey.

Jon Green pointed out further evidence of the lasting legacy of the photo shoots featuring the hybrid costumes. mark braces, these were in fact made for the fifth dr but were worn by the the sixth in " vengeance on varos". Further into the decade, a Cyberman was a resident of the hidden trap street in London which housed lost aliens on Earth under the protection of Mayor Me. As with the rest of the inhabitants, it appeared cloaked in human form through use of the lurkworms. It was observed by the Twelfth Doctor and Clara Oswald as it had maintenance performed on it by an Ood. ( TV: Face the Raven)Aside from these changes, variations in design between rank-and-file Cybermen and their leaders have been seen. In The Wheel in Space and The Invasion (both 1968), the Cyber Director was depicted as an immobile mechanism. The Cyber Leader in " The Next Doctor" sports a transparent brain casing. This helmet was made for the 1976 Tom Baker story “Deadly Assassin” it is constructed from heavy fibreglass and decorated with metal studs and is braded around the ear cups, the inside of the helmet is lined with a terry towelling material. The Cyberships leftover from the invasion were examined and exploited by humans, allowing them to make advances in space travel, leading Sarah Jane Smith to describe the return of Mondas as "both the greatest disaster and most astonishing blessing ever to have happened to the human race." ( PROSE: The Power of the Daleks) The costume which Jon Pertwee wears on the cover is the same as he would wear in Death to the Daleks. This may be a complete coincidence as he'd also worn it for a story many month earlier, but it seems reasonable to date this image to the end of October 1973. One thing we do know is that it can't have been taken any later than the 9th November because this was the time at which the Dalek props were repainted silver for the forthcoming TV appearance on Exxilon. The small tubing seen running to the top and bottom of the chest unit was not seen on the televised stories.There The original tubes were a light weight mesh.

The damaged Cyber-Scout that the Ninth Doctor encountered in 1925 Berlin. ( AUDIO: Monsters in Metropolis) A mainstay of Doctor Who since the 1960s, the Cybermen have also appeared in related programs and spin-off media, including novels, audiobooks, comic books, and video games. Cybermen stories were produced in officially licensed Doctor Who products between 1989 and 2005, when the TV show was off the air, with writers either filling historical gaps or depicting new encounters between them and the Doctor. The species also appeared in the Doctor Who TV spin-off, Torchwood, appearing in the fourth episode, " Cyberwoman" (2006). Tynan, Alexandra; Cook, Benjamin (November 2016). "The Cybermum". Doctor Who Magazine. No.504. Tunbridge Wells: Panini UK Ltd. pp.15–17. Raston Warrior Robots counted Cybermen among the many beings they could kill. Although equipped only with javelins and blades, the technology of the robots allowed them to easily destroy several Cybermen. ( TV: The Five Doctors)The cybermats appeared in the video game " Blood of the Cybermen" [40] where instead of killing, they turned individuals into cyberslaves. The slaves have mostly human bodies, but have Cyberman heads and arms. The Cybermen see the cyberslaves as inferior, and delete them once they have served their purpose. It seems fair to assume that in some corner of the costume department there was a rail filled with silver suits, and nearby there were various helmets and chest units on shelves. With so many costumes having been used in Tomb of the Cyberman, and a great deal more made in Invasion, there would have been quite some choice. Their armour is often depicted as flexible and resistant to bullets, but can be penetrated by gold arrows and projectiles made of gold. The Cybus Cybermen are bullet-proof and are very resilient, but are not indestructible – they are vulnerable to high explosives, electromagnetic pulses, specialised weaponry and Dalek weapons. Also in this year, two years before the return of Mondas, the Sixth Doctor left a damaged Cyber-Leader from the far future on Mondas, where it was considered faulty by its ancestors and taken to be reprocessed. ( AUDIO: The Reaping) The chest unit pictured in this shot does not belong to either the head or the body. The chest unit is from The Invasion, which was made a season later than the other bits, and would have been built around August 1968. In fact, not even the helmet would be correctly dated to 1967 because The Wheel in Space was not in production until April 1968.

Scout crafts were sent to find Earth's location. The first expedition to find Earth crash-landed in the mountains of Austria around 1873. However, due to the extensive damage sustained during the landing, they failed to report the location of Earth to Cyber-Control on Mondas, which was 200 light-years away. The Eighth Doctor made sure that all Cyber-Technology from the expedition was destroyed. ( AUDIO: The Silver Turk) This costume also shows repairs had been carried out. The original rods connecting the body and the knees had gone and instead a length of flexible metal hose had been used. Strangest of all, the replacement link positions on the body were the balls used in the Moonbase/Tomb costumes. It makes you wonder what state other costumes were in if such spares were freely available. Mr Ware came up with the goods! He fished out a photograph from the archive which suddenly gave a hint towards what was going on. There were still things to be unravelled but it was a step in the right direction.By the end of the Cyber-Wars, the Cybermen had gained the ability to instantly adapt to anything that posed a threat to damaging their bodies; thus most methods of killing them became obsolete after one use, and this instant immunity was shared through the Cyberiad. The only guaranteed method of destroying the Cybermen was to completely destroy the planet they were on at the time. ( TV: Nightmare in Silver) These Cybermen could also learn a person's identity in seconds using a scanner in their chest plate. They could also self destruct, releasing spores to upgrade a corpse into a Cyberman as well, albeit allowing some to retain their free will. ( TV: Death in Heaven) Those flaws were corrected when the Fifth Doctor, who had arrived on Mondas with Nyssa, had an biological analysis done on him. In the scan, they discovered an extra brain lobe that only Time Lords had. This feature was then recreated in the Cybermen, rectifying those flaws. Horrified at his unwitting part in the creation of the Cybermen, the Doctor destroyed the Committee, which by now had become the first Cyber-Planner and was now bent on converting all Mondasians, by pouring wine into their Nutrient Vats, and reprogramming a swarm of Cybermats to feed off their electricity, killing them. His efforts were, ultimately, in vain as eventually all of the Mondasians underwent forced cyber-conversion. ( AUDIO: Spare Parts) The Cybermen as they emerge from the sewers onto the streets in their first invasion of Earth as seen in The Invasion (1968) When Tom Baker took over, the last two TV appearances had been six years previously. The Wheel in Space and The Invasion costume designs introduced slimmer connecting rods on the arms and legs. The Invasion even had a completely new style of chest unit. By the end of the Troughton era, the Cyberman had moved on quite a lot from their Moonbase appearance.

Early Mondasian Cybermen had a quavering voice which put inflected syllables in a seemingly random, sing-song manner. Their suits were not entirely metallic, the face and hands being instead covered in a sort of hardened medical gauze. ( TV: The Tenth Planet) Those on the colony ship, like Bill Potts, spoke like this as well. ( TV: The Doctor Falls) The name "Cyberman" comes from cybernetics, a term used in Norbert Wiener's book Cybernetics or Control and Communication in the Animal and the Machine (MIT Press, 1948). Wiener used the term in reference to the control of complex systems, particularly self-regulating control systems, in the animal world and in mechanical networks. By 1960, doctors were researching surgical or mechanical augmentation of humans and animals to operate machinery in space, leading to the portmanteau "cyborg", for "cybernetic organism". When I mentioned this curious Cyberman to my fellow researcher Jon Green, he came up with something else of interest which I'd forgotten. Although it wasn't necessarily directly connected, it was clearly part of the same story of these dormant costumes.Jon Pertwee had made his debut in the first week of January and the Radio Times had promoted it with a front cover at that time. Ambassadors of Death didn't start production until late-January 1970 and Doctor Who had such a tight turnaround that sets and costumes were rarely ready more than a week or two before shooting began. It was extremely unlikely that the Ambassador costume had been prepared in 1969 ready to go before the cameras at the end of January 1970. The Cybermen did not face the Third Doctor ( Jon Pertwee) during his era, but one is shown as part of an exhibit in Carnival of Monsters (1973). The Third Doctor would however face Cybermen in the 20th anniversary special The Five Doctors (1983). The First Doctor met an advance force of Mondans near Snowcap Base in Antarctica. This force was to prepare for Mondas' return to the Sol system and to drain Earth's energy for the Cybermen. Mondas absorbed too much energy and was destroyed, as were the Cybermen on Earth who depended on Mondas for power. ( TV: The Tenth Planet) The Fourth Doctor ( Tom Baker) is next to encounter a group of Cybermen in Revenge of the Cybermen (1975). These Cybermen are depicted as the wandering remnants of a fallen empire, ravaged by the so-called Cyber-Wars against victorious humanity, which had exploited the Cybermen's weakness to gold. These Cybermen attempt to restore the glory of their race by destroying the gold-rich asteroid Voga. Above left is the Denys Fisher Cyberman toy which was part of the same set as the the "Red Top" Dalek. It does not have have flat discs on its joints or pipes down its chest like the latest Revenge Cybermen. The wellingtons over the trousers and the cross-hatch on the chest unit make it obvious that, just like with the "Red Top" Dalek, the photos from that same issue of the Radio Times were the reference material used to create this toy!
