Cyberleader / Cyberman ‘Silver Nemesis’ Picture

Cyberleader and Cyberman from ‘Silver Nemesis’ 2 Pack

Exclusive to Forbidden Planet! You can order this set Here while stocks last

The Seventh Doctor and Ace visit Windsor, England in 1988, where three factions – the Cybermen, a group of Neo-Nazis and a 17th Century time travelling sorceress named Lady Peinforte – are each attempting to capture a weapon made of a living metal, Validium, created as the ultimate defence for Gallifrey. The weapon is now in the form of a statue of Lady Peinforte and has three components that must be brought together in order to be activated.

In order to foil an earlier attempt to control it, the Doctor launched the weapon inside an asteroid, into a 25 year orbit over 300 years ago. The asteroid now crashes back to Earth near Windsor Castle. The Doctor plays the three rival groups off against one other until eventually he appears to surrender the statue to the Cybermen. However, this is just another carefully-laid trap by the Doctor and the Cybermen warships are totally wiped out when they attempt to control the weapon.

In this exclusive figure set we present the Cyber Leader and Cyberman each with a Cybergun from the 1988 story Silver Nemesis.

    Ah dear, still no progress in getting these. But ya never know, when it is the Banks will actually be open, and it wont be a school day, and Ill get there before they close at 4:30, and Ill get me a Debt Card which will allow me to buy stuff of the internet. YAH BAY-BAY!!! 🙂

    But until that miraculous day comes, its a bit of a wait…………..
    The Silver Nemesis, out on DVD this August, getting it aswell as

    WOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHH……….

    Im still waiting.

    I gotta say those guns theyre holding look great, when I get the Cybermen Double-pack I am going to have to either give the Revenge of the Cybermen to my cousin or throw it in the bin, I HATE that episode. And I hate the Cybermen in that episode. For me, the Cybermen never really came back after the Invasion until 1982. And yes, that means Carnival of Monsters doesnt count as a “Cybermen coming back” episode!

    But I anticipate having lots of 80s Cyybermen, with such boundless excitement.

    Nope. Still havent got this yet. But Keep trying! I will eventually get this set some time in the future. But for now, it seems I am yet to succeed. But never give up! LIsten to what Neil Diamond sometimes says: “Hang on TO THAT DREAM!!”

    Im still getting these you know. It may not be today and it may not be tommorow, but sooner or later, they will be mine, and all that seperates me from having them is time. And whenever I get them, I shall also have bought a little bit of a “Cyber Army”. Yes, the gloroius Cybermen of Character Options shall rise.

    (Reads the previous dozen comments) Quite right, I was just thinking the same thing myself. With toy manufacturers, often they have to think of clever little ways to actually make a profit, and selling FP exclusives is by all means the way to do it, theyre double the price.

    And it would also be correct to say that this set, of which I without a moments hesitation will be paying 25 QUID for, is now ON fp.com So I dont see why everyones so worked up about this sets possibley limited availability.

    Forbidden Planet exclusives are never announced as being Exclusives to FP until they are released, remember the 7th Doctor Fiugres? People were all saying “Please let they not be exclusive to Forbidden Planet” and eventually they were advertised on the Forbidden Planet website, same thing just happened here.

    The thing I dont agree with FPEXCs is how single figures, like the COA Sixth Doctor are £15 thats WAY too much! Make it £12, er… £10! And as for

    Its set to GMT now, he left it before as a lot of comments come from outside the UK so it didn’t seen to matter that much. We seem to get a lot of visitors from Australia here.

    @booboo why is there a time difference of 5 hours and 3 minutes for example I posted at 10.00 o’clock, but it says a different time why?

    I know a lot of people think there expensive but the problem is that without them a lot of figures might not see the light of day.

    Exclusives are good, for the manufactors to make more money to make more figures and for die hard collectors despite that this just look like the Earthshock cyberman

    Personally I think some sort of campaign should be set up against Forbidden Planet. Their prices are stupid amounts. We used to pay £8 a figure a couple of years ago, now it’s £15 a figure. Back in the day though, you would theoretically pay £16 for two figures. But then they decide that you should pay £25 instead. It’s daylight robbery and really should stop.

    Oh yeah! 🙂 I literally just found out about this less than half a minute ago! See, this is why I like Money, it makes me happy how I get things with it. And I like other things ofcourse, there be more causes for joy than personal gainage and items of desire.

    Like…….I would be happy to melt a minty aero chocolate bar in my mouth, or to help a tortoise across the road (gathered that it doesnt bite me), or to marvel at how nice my house looksafter a good honest half an hour of cleaning it, or to fell the relief of scrubbing the unpleasant liquid known as sweat off of my torso on the way to school during a summer morning.

    I was thinking yesterday about the Earthshock Cybermen and possible future Cybermen action figures from CO. I always thought a Cyber-Leader from Earthshock should be in a Fifth Doctor adventure set, along with Adric (who no one would purchase otherwise) and the Ainley Master and a cricket bat and cricket Ball.

    Infact while I was re-watching on eof my favourite Sixth Doctor episodes, (Colin is the Doctor aswell!) being Mark Of The Rani which is a great episode besides the dull setting and the vicious Luddites, I figured there should be an “Attack Of The Cybermen set” with Lytton (who was a memorable and effective character) because he is potentially a great recurring character for fan fictions, the
    Cyber-controller (yet another!), Peri in that rather interesting costume and ofcourse (no Cryons please) the Sixth Doctor.
    BUT THIS IS GREAT AND IM GETTING THIS EVEN IF IT IS AN FP EXCLUSIVE AND DOUBLE THE PRICE WITH NO GUARANTEE OF ARRIVING WITHIN HALF A YEARS TIME, BECAUSE I MUST HAVE IT!!!!!!

    Drwhotoys.net are hinting that this is an SDCC exclusive, but having read the article I’m not too sure. After the demand for the Earthshock Cyberman , they’d be mad not to put this set on general release.
