Cyberman (Blood of the Cybermen): Difference between revisions

* It was not stated whether these Cybermen were of the [[Cyberman|Mondasian]] or [[Cyberman (Pete's World)|Cybus]] kind. They greatly resemble the Cybus Cybermen (but with a stylised logo of a Cyberman's head instead of the Cybus logo) and are said to be brains in metal shells ala the Cybus creations. However, a "Who Fact" on Cybermen in the game refers solely to the Mondasian Cybermen, while another on Cyber-Biology refers first to Cybermen and then "the Cybermen created by [[John Lumic]]" as if they're a different group; the Cybermats, their awareness of the fact that the Doctor is a [[Time Lord]], and his reference to "races" conquered by them further indicate that they are the Mondasian versions. However, the Cybus Cybermen also seemed aware of the Doctor and who he was when they joined [[The Alliance|the Alliance]] and also have a vast fleet of ships, indicating that they have captured and converted more species. Furthermore, their[[ Electro Attack| Electro Attack]] more greatly resembles the Mondasian one seen in [[The Moonbase|''The Moonbase'']] and ''[[The Tomb of the Cybermen]]'' than the Cybus one, as it is a ranged attack.  

** Cybermen resembling the Cybus kind but acting like Mondasians would also appear in ''[[The Pandorica Opens (TV story)|The Pandorica Opens]]'' (but with the Cybus logo) and ''[[A Good Man Goes to War]]'' (without), and [[Peter Hoare]] confirms the latter are "different Cybermen" to the Cybus race. <ref>[http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/dw/videos/p00hghnb Key Scene Commentary 2]</ref> The Cybermen from two or all of these three stories may be the same Cybermen.
