Confirmed Infomation
The Cybershade has been confirmed by BBC as it it shown on the website how to build a cybershade mask and and on the BBC Channel it showed them driving carriages.
Possible Infomation
The Sun Newspaper and The Telegraph has reported that the Doctor will come face to face with a new type of Cybermen this Christmas. Rumoured to be called either Cyber Mutants or Cybershades.
A spokesperson from the BBC said. "Like we did with the Daleks, we've taken the original robot and made it a bit more sinister. The Cybershade is a mutant with some of the looks of the Cybermen - but it is a much darker creation. Fans always want something new. Just wheeling out Cybermen again would be tame."
Children In Need
An Exclusive Preview showed the Cybershade hissing and running. It has a bronze diamond head and a yeti-like coat. From a picture from the BBC Doctor Who advent calendar, the cybershade's 'fur' looks more like rags.
A later preview showed a Cybershade sitting upright and driving a horse and cart, this would suggest that Cybershades have a humanoid body as opposed to a dog like body the Children In Need preview showed them with, as there they run like dogs.
Behind the scenes
Cybershades were mentioned by Russell T Davies in to Benjamin Cook, and published in his book Doctor Who: The Writer's Tale, it is believed (given the description) that they are the other Cybus Cybermen-beings that will feature in The Next Doctor.[1]
