In the new trailer it shows a cyberman picking up it's own head, now with the head containing the brain which is the most important thing for the cyberman to still be alive does this mean the cybermen have created a way to keep themselves indistructable in a way?? More proof is the cyberman without an arm. -- [[User:Michael Downey|Michael Downey]] 16:55, April 6, 2010 (UTC) | In the new trailer it shows a cyberman picking up it's own head, now with the head containing the brain which is the most important thing for the cyberman to still be alive does this mean the cybermen have created a way to keep themselves indistructable in a way??

Yes we don't know all do it, but the principle of it works which COULD mean it is the same way for the original cybermen. We don't know the purpose for how and why the original where created therefore if they where for an army purpose the whole thing goes against itself and makes the whole point of converting humans pointless. -- [[User:Michael Downey|Michael Downey]] 12:11, April 7, 2010 (UTC) | Yes we don't know all do it, but the principle of it works which COULD mean it is the same way for the original cybermen.

It doesn't matter that the suits could walk on their own, because making the suits walk was not the goal.

Michael, how does it defeat the purpose? The purpose of the exo-skeleton is to protect/save humans, i.e. their brains/consciousness, having certain amount of AI only means better protection. Can you imagine if certain part of the exo-skeleton malfunctioned or if the brain had a concussion and is in coma? The suit being able to protect itself/(the brain) or seek medical help is certainly more advantageous than just lying there in the middle of a battleground. You just forgot that the Cybus Cybermen's exo-skeletons are not military units, they are medical aids -- they developed military parts to ensure the patient survives...the purpose was never to build an army of Cybermen nor create a new race.--[[Special:Contributions/203.168.176.42|203.168.176.42]] 19:56, July 16, 2010 (UTC) | |||

Please DO NOT add to this discussion.
In the new trailer it shows a cyberman picking up it's own head, now with the head containing the brain which is the most important thing for the cyberman to still be alive does this mean the cybermen have created a way to keep themselves indistructable in a way?? More proof is the cyberman without an arm. -- Michael Downey 16:55, April 6, 2010 (UTC)
You can have Cybus Cybermen with no brain, as seen in in Age of Steel. Maybe it's just a shell? Cannon881 17:08, April 6, 2010 (UTC)
It's also possible it's not a cyberman, but something in the shape of a cyberman. the twelfth doctor 18:12, April 6, 2010 (UTC)
Actually, you see a cyberman picking up A head, not necessarily its own

Juse realised something, the cybermen (shells) in series 2 work but surely if they created a way for them to work and they don't need humans what is the point of them converting humans if the cybersuit works on its own. I know to make humans never sick etc but surely the main prupose was to use the brain of a human to make the suit work but if their working without anything human it surely defeats the object of the whole thing all together. -- Michael Downey 12:04, April 7, 2010 (UTC)
Lumic didn't mean to create an army, he just wanted people to be immortal. If he had, then yeah, he would have used autonomous suits. Besides, we don't know if ALL Cybermen suits could do it. Cannon881 12:08, April 7, 2010 (UTC)
Yes we don't know all do it, but the principle of it works which COULD mean it is the same way for the original cybermen.
