I want to have the designer’s cyber-babies!!

Reminds me of the robot from Metropolis. Not sure about the bell-bottom legs and silver doc martins. The internal wiring and tubing looks great though! Can’t wait to see them in action. Resistance is useless!

So Threepio and The Thing had a child? I didn’t even know they were dating!
The bulky limbs give it a muscular look, which makes an interesting contrast to the svelte Cybermen seen not long ago in the DWM comic. RTD subverts fanboy expectations once more - imagine what CGI could do with the Cybermats?

I remember the other thing it reminds me of: The Rocketeer

I love that the design is sleek and has a more mechanical feel. Does anyone wish to speculate if this new model of Cyberman has any weakness to gold?

Yeah not bad… I’m glad they’ve retained the cybermen’s fascinating tear-drop motif and their obsession with portable sound-gear (headphones).

Um, no it wouldn’t. The Shada story is hardly news as it was made almost three years ago. You can actually view it on the BBC website:

Although I like the new Cyber-look, I think it too closely resembles Marvel Comics IRON MAN. MY personal favorite looks were ‘Revenge of the Cybermen’ and ‘Earthshock’.
