A big improvement on the JNT cuddly Cybermen IMHO. Third series confirmed.

When I first saw this new design I thought 'robocop'. Didn't think all that much of it at first but after it sinking in for a few hours it's definitely growing on me.

What's with the big 'C' on their chests?! Is this from the Superman design school of costumes?!

Now THAT'S what I call a Cyberman! Let's hope the voice matches the image.

Is David Banks gonna be involved?

Oooo I'm all excited again! How long til Christmas?

I think it might be plot related, based on a set report I read on OG- but I'm relativley spoiler-free and am only guessing.

Just realised... it's 'C' for Chrissie Watts!

(Sorry Adam, EastEnders reference - the actress is guesting in eps 5/6.)

C is for Chest. They were put together in Airfix kit form. They've probably got a big B on their bottoms as well.

My guess is it's some sort of locking nut, I'll lay money that somewhere in the story a large mechanical screwdriver type thing is inserted in it to take one to pieces.
