'''Martian Sphinx''' is the ultimate weapon of war, a giant robot with formidable fire power. It lay dormant with all but its face beneath the surface for many generations. It was regarded as a curiosity until revived by Dr. Who, who interpreted a series of carved hieroglyphs in the underground cave system as activation codes for the robot. It was reactivated in time to destroy the Daleks who were planning to use the planet as a launch base in an attack on the Blue Planet (aka Earth).
