: There could still have been ancient diagrams of the prime Eye available long after the Eye itself was lost, so smaller versions of it could have been created that way. And the Time Lords have shown some control of the TARDIS regardless of the Doctor in the past, as shown in "The War Games", when they prevent it from fleeing from them, and when they restore its ability to travel of its own accord at the end of "The Three Doctors." Or maybe they contacted the Doctor and asked him if he'd like his mini-Eye linked up to the main Eye, and he agreed. However, that still doesn't entirely explain why the Master couldn't have used such a mini-Eye for his purposes in TDA.

:: Who says you can't ignore the TV movie? There were plenty of fans in the early 90s who did—and plenty in the late 70s who ignored TDA, for that matter. Fans don't engage in fanwanking because it's required, but because it's part of the fun. The new series has established that there was an 8th Doctor and that he looked like actor Paul McGann, but that could still be true if the movie didn't happen, or happened in an alternate universe, or happened but was then undone by changes in history, or whatever, right? (Of course as far as writing articles for this wiki is concerned you can't ignore the TV movie, but then you can't ignore the EDAs either, so the answer in the EDAs is the answer. Anyway, the point is that this wiki's policy only goes as far as this wiki's articles; there's no official policy for the Whoniverse at large.) | :: Who says you can't ignore the TV movie?

:: Anyway, if there were ancient diagrams of the Eye giving enough details that they could, and regularly did, create smaller versions of it, people would hardly consider it a myth, would they? --[[Special:Contributions/173.228.85.35|173.228.85.35]] 05:19, August 25, 2011 (UTC) | :: Anyway, if there were ancient diagrams of the Eye giving enough details that they could, and regularly did, create smaller versions of it, people would hardly consider it a myth, would they? --[[Special:Contributions/173.228.85.35|173.228.85.35]] 05:19, August 25, 2011 (UTC) | ||

:: Instructions for how to create the Eye might still exist, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the Eye itself does. Even if it did, its location had been lost. So who could say Rassilon had even gotten around to creating it? [[Special:Contributions/82.2.136.93|82.2.136.93]] 20:45, August 25, 2011 (UTC) |
