Time for a Cybermen redesign?

[Ar-Pharazon]

That new shot might have been a little more scary if there weren't people milling about.

But there's just something about the original.

I like the Cybermen on the tube

And speaking of Cybermen...

I think I saw them when they did that!

But yeah the cybermen need a redesign. Something akin to the online flash series 'Real time'? Those cybermen look pretty cool as well as being really creepy

I'm not entirely sure what you mean. The Cybermen have only shown up one time in the modern who, as a head in the first series episode "Dalek." There is a group of Cybusmen, is that who you are talking about? If so, it's time for them to go. I'd be happy to see actual Cybermen back in Doctor Who.

This is precisely the sort of nonsense that has diminished my interest in TrekBBS over the years. Well, "geekdom" in its entirety actually.

Here, here. Bitching about the newish "Cybus" Cybermen is heading into incredibly sad, non-ironic Star Trek vs. Star Wars space/ground combat territory.

I would be please if they ditched the Cybus chest emblem and changed the existing Cybermen costumes a bit, but that's about it.

Bitching about things is what nerds do best! It's been like that since forever.

Anyways, here's the cgi 'real time' cyberman from the BBC website.

I really liked the Cybermen in The Flood-- so creepy and alien-- but of course the whole point behind that design was that they couldn't be men in suits.

^
I'm not sure. They looked a bit too silly

 

[Cutter John]

Tweeked Capt Pickirks pic a bit.

hmm that design could pose a slight issue with male actors inside...

 

[Cutter John]

^ Well, it was sort of a quick and dirty Photoshop. The original looked just a bit too whisper thin to me. But yeah, defiantly could use a bit more strategically placed 'equipment'.

Hey that looks awesome! just a tweak can go a long way.

Although the eyes could be a bit darker.
And I agree with, Marc, the lower area could use development

 

[Cutter John]

Who's yer daddy?

 

[Capt_Pickirk]

Maybe a bit more like this??

 

[Cutter John]

There ya go.

 

[Capt_Pickirk]

meh. ta da. not really any good but whatever

Here's an excellent Cyberman design that's a cross between a 1970s/1980s Cyberman and a 2000s Cyberman:

Hmm needs the bar across the head,not just the vertical bits and the hands look more like a Sontaran's.

Here's the same concept artist's ( Niklas Jansson) take on the Daleks:

I like how he has a ? for the bumps.

They're etheric beam locators!
