The Cybermen, small in number, set out to conquer other organic beings, turning whole races into Cybermen, and constantly tried to upgrade themselves to stronger, deadlier versions. Despite being their first appearance, The Tenth Planet doesn’t show the origins of the Cybermen. That comes much later (sort of), but also - obviously - before. The joys of a show about time travel! In their debut, the Cybermen’s home-world of Mondas – Earth’s twin – had returned to our solar system, after aeons spent drifting in space. During their time away, Mondasian lifespans had grown shorter, so they devised spare parts for their bodies, until they could be almost completely replaced – and so the Cybermen were born. Originating from Earth’s twin planet Mondas, the Cybermen were originally just like us in appearance, wholly organic humanoids who began to experiment in ways of self-preservation when they realised their planet’s resources were dying and their lifespans were shortening. Mondasian scientists, with machinery years ahead of Earth technology, began to implant artificial parts into bodies, until these parts started to replace vital organs. With cybernetic parts added to their brains, they started to lose their humanoid emotions and became cold, calculating and logic led cyborgs. In trying to save their race, they had become monsters. The final story of Doctor Who's tenth season returned a classic design to the screen – the Mondasian Cybermen!

Product Enterprise produced various talking Cybermen including an all over matt silver finish, a Chrome effect Cyberman and Cyberleader and a Stealth Cyberman. The Cybermen are one of the Doctor’s most fearsome, persistent, and iconic enemies. Debuting 55 years ago, the emotionless metallic monstrosities have repeatedly clashed with the Doctor. Their appearance has changed over the years, as have their tactics, and even their weaknesses - but every time they appeared, they’ve had the same goal: the total conversion of all organic life into Cybermen! After being warned about the Lone Cyberman, the Doctor and her friends came face-to-face with it at the Villa Diodati. The pure nightmare fuel that is the Lone Cyberman - real name Ashad - had only been partly converted, with his human face still partially exposed. Despite being part human, Ashad hated all organic life and wanted to restore the Cybermen to their former glory. All he needed to make that happen? For the Doctor to surrender the Cyberium, an AI that contained every scrap of data about the Cybermen!Scificollector produced a superb 5″ figure with stand which is shown below (centre) along with the Cards Inc bust, Corgi, Micro universe, Time squad, keyring and Money box versions. Many other variations and novelties have been made. Shown below are the Character 12″ Cyberman and Controller, Bubble bath, room guard and voice changer helmet.

This two-part adventure re-introduced the Cybermen as non-extraterrestrial beings from a parallel universe on an alternate Earth, created by Cybus Industries headed by the sinister John Lumic, closely associated with the government. Lumic’s scheme was to convert the population of London into Cybermen, literally upgrading humanity by placing human brains into metal exoskeletons to create an army of powerful, unstoppable machines. The original Cybermen from previous stories were entire humans placed in cybernetic suits – the difference with these new Cybermen was that only the brain was transferred. 2011 12th Cyber Legion Cyberman Accompanied by a detailed magazine that details the appearances and impact of the Mondasian Cybermen. When the Cybermen next reared their handle barred heads, they weren’t working alone – in fact, they formed part of an alliance. The plan was to trap the Doctor in the Pandorica, the perfect prison, so that he wouldn’t destroy the universe when his TARDIS exploded. A single Cyberman was left to guard the Pandorica but was destroyed by a resurrected Rory. The alliance succeeded and the Doctor was indeed imprisoned. But their victory proved to be short-lived… because that was when things started to go really, really wrong! After an on-screen absence of 18 years, barring the occasional charity special, the Cybermen would make their long-awaited return in the 2006 story Rise of the Cybermen, and all that was on fans’ minds was what their latest upgrade would look like! How could you make the Cybermen both frightening and imposing for the 21st century? The answer was to cover them head to toe in body armour, to feature them en masse as relentless, marching, unstoppable killers. The Matt Smith years saw the return of the Cybermen from Mondas, or at least a mixture of Mondas and Cybus technology, as their appearance was near identical to their previous design bar the removal of the Cybus logo from their chests. In the story A Good Man Goes To War, a new army of Cybermen were seen monitoring Demon’s Run from their ship. This slightly modified Cyberman design was later seen in Closing Time and 2013’s Nightmare In Silver. 2013 Upgraded Cyber War CybermanUnlike the subtle changes to the Daleks over the history of the programme, the Cybermen have undergone several major re-designs over the years, but the retention of the silver colour scheme, round eyeholes and the iconic handlebars on the helmet is present on every design. The Figures Crossing the void between universes, the Cybus Cybermen appeared all over our Earth as ghostly figures. When they revealed themselves, it seemed as though the Cybermen had conquered the world in a single stroke. However, they had followed an unknown object through the void; a sphere that they didn’t build. The Doctor was horrified to learn who really created it. For the first time in the show’s history, the Cybermen faced off against another iconic enemy, the Daleks!

Underground Toys. Many variation of Cybermen are now available thanks to the commitment the classic series by Underground Toys. Shown below are just 2 sets, The Silver Nemesis set and 6th Doctor with Stealth Cyberman Their first story was also the First Doctor’s last, as this was the adventure that introduced regeneration… as well as the Second Doctor. The next figure portrays a Cyberman from the 1969 story The Invasion, the fourth and final time the Second Doctor encounters their race. Again, the costumes had been modified from their previous appearance a year earlier, this time adding ‘ear muff’ type shapes to the sides of their helmets and one-piece silver wet suits to their bodies. In this story, the Doctor discovers the Cybermen have been hiding in late 20th century Earth, working with partially cyber-enhanced human Tobias Vaughn to bring their invasion fleet to destroy Earth. With the help of the newly formed UNIT, led by Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart, their plans are once again thwarted. 1975 Vogan War Cyberman You’d think being driven by logic, the Cybermen would have worked out that plots from space stations don’t end well for them, but no. The target: the “planet of gold”, Voga. The space station: Nerva. In this story, it was revealed the Cybermen were fatally vulnerable to gold, so they planned to destroy Voga. This key weakness would be vital in several of the Doctor’s following encounters with the Cybermen.The final story of Doctor Who’s tenth season returned a classic design to the screen – the Mondasian Cybermen! More primitive and yet just as terrifying as their modern, armoured counterparts, the original Cybermen featured circuitry and tubing, a mask of surgical-style cloth, and exposed hands of all-too-human flesh… This 13.5” hand-painted resin statuette captures every morbid detail of the iconic monster design, straight from The Doctor Falls! When the Doctor next encountered the Cybermen, they’d opted for a more covert form of invasion. Targeting the weather control station on the Moon, they infected the station’s crew with a virus, softening up the base to make it easier to conquer. Their target was the Gravitron, the device that controlled the Earth’s weather. With it, they intended to destroy the surface of the Earth – and everyone on it. Unfortunately for the Cybermen, the Doctor was on hand to put a stop to their scheme. When it came to the story to mark the silver anniversary of the show, there couldn’t be a more appropriate enemy than the silver titans of terror. The Cybermen were caught in a race for control of the Nemesis statue, which returned to Earth every 25 years. Standing in their way were a group of Nazis, a time-travelling aristocrat from the 17th Century, as well as the Doctor and Ace. The race was on…
