October 3rd, 2016 - 10:27pmI’ve got the first issue today
The Flying Shark
September 30th, 2016 - 7:00pmGot this last Saturday, got Cover 1.
Weeping Angel
September 25th, 2016 - 8:17pmDid anyone else notice that the next issue is £5.99 even though its not a special issue with a poster or whatever – i hope that isnt the magazines normal price!
Philip
September 28th, 2016 - 10:13pmI was charged £5.99 at Sainsburys for each issue as I got all 4. I noticed the cover price is £4.99 so the assistant refunded me the difference. This was either a Sainsburys error or a wrong bar code for a special issue.

October 16th, 2016 - 2:08pmThats interesting as when i went to sainsburys i had to wait a week to get it even though they had it in the back because of a pricing error

September 23rd, 2016 - 12:10pmI bought my copy today. And I got the cover I wanted…even though my shop only had two to choose from. I got the classic Tenth Planet and Moonbase Cybermen…My favourite versions of the Cybermen. The Cybermen were at their most effective in black and white.

September 22nd, 2016 - 3:00pmNow i’ve studied the Revenge cover. It’s the heads that are the problem. They are too small for the size of the body.
The Monitor
September 23rd, 2016 - 8:02pmLet’s hope it is these covers, because for 25 years the Revenge Cyberman has been my favourite ( I know others who think the same) – the right balance between old and new design. The only ones that have come close are the Nightmare Cyberman and the Silver (for shiny-ness and deep voice)
Tim M
September 21st, 2016 - 3:10pmI really like these covers. Cybermen were always great foes of the Doctor’s. What is everyone’s top 5 Cybermen stories. Mine are 1) The Tomb of the Cybermen. 2) Earthshock. 3) The Moonbase. 4) The Invasion 5) The Tenth Planet.
Demdike@CultLabs
September 21st, 2016 - 7:09pmEarthshock, The Invasion, The Tenth Planet, Tomb of the Cybermen, The Next Doctor. (Sorry, but i love the Cybermen tramping about the snowy grave yard)
CG
September 22nd, 2016 - 7:32amOh my God! I completely forgot about the Next Doctor – love that too!
Mine would be Earthshock, Tomb of the Cybermen, Attack, Revenge and probably Invasion.
The Monitor
September 23rd, 2016 - 8:00pmRevenge, Nightmare in Silver, The Invasion, Earthshock, Silver
The Monitor
September 23rd, 2016 - 8:04pmThe Tomb of the Cybermen is a greater story than any I have listed above, but perhaps others show Cybermen at their best. Of course there is that classic scene of the emergence, unfortunately the voices are not clear to everyone.
Tim M
October 1st, 2016 - 2:30pmI didn’t feel ‘The Invasion’ showed the Cybermen at their best, even though it is a superb story. Like ‘Tomb of the Cybermen’, ‘The Invasion’ has an equally classic scene of Cybermen stepping down from St Paul’s. But for a story that lasts 8 episodes, the Cybermen hardly feature prominently until the last episode.
Demdike@CultLabs
September 21st, 2016 - 11:55amCover 2 has just fallen through my letterbox.
Revenge of the Cybermen.

September 20th, 2016 - 10:45amHow are the covers sorted to Subscriber’s?
Anonymous
September 20th, 2016 - 3:12pmthey give you cover 1
Gareth Pugh
September 21st, 2016 - 9:25amWhen they’ve done multi-covers in the past few years, my mate and I (we both subscribe) always get different ones. I’m not so sure they have a definite policy of only sending subscribers design #1?
When The Doctor Was Me
September 21st, 2016 - 10:16amI never get cover 1 as a subscriber. I got the Tennant cover for issue 485 and the the angels take manhatten cover for issue 452.
When The Doctor Was Me
September 21st, 2016 - 11:06amIn fact mine has just come in the post and i got cover 4. Which is great as its the one i wanted!
The Contessa
September 21st, 2016 - 5:01pmThey must be random. I subscribe and have received cover 3. Would have preferred cover 2 though!
DoctorFan
September 21st, 2016 - 8:27pmI always get cover one wether I like it or not
Jay Glover
September 20th, 2016 - 7:20amCover Two Looks the best
Matthew
September 20th, 2016 - 4:48amI’m still only buying one copy.
I hope I get cover three but as a subscriber I’ll probably end up with cover four.
The Legend Doctor
September 20th, 2016 - 12:17amWait what? I thought the cybermen first appeared in 1963? like The Daleks?

September 23rd, 2016 - 10:48amWhat made you think that?
Doctor Who started 23rd November 1963, and was on a weekly basis. By January 1964 Doctor Who was only partly into it’s second story, ‘The Daleks’.
Also, I thought everyone knew the Cybermen first appeared in Hartnell’s final story, he didn’t play the Doctor for less than 2 months!
The Legend Doctor
September 23rd, 2016 - 8:14pmOops silly me
Jordan Scott
September 19th, 2016 - 11:52pmA cover to celebrate The Power of the Daleks being animated and it’s 50th anniversary would be nice!
Doctor Who Archive
September 20th, 2016 - 4:41amThey could have two covers for the Power of the Daleks and two for the Cybermen.
Stike
September 20th, 2016 - 7:12amI suspect November’s issue will have a power of the daleks cover
DOCTORWHOFAN1
September 20th, 2016 - 5:53pmI hope thy do covers for 10 years since Torchwood in October and the Sarah Jane Adventures in January
Gareth Pugh
September 20th, 2016 - 10:52pmI think that’s what we might be getting. If you look at the ‘Coming Soon’ section of the last issue if DWM, issue 506 (the one out in November) is at the higher price of £5.99 again. When they’ve charged that for a couple of issues recently, they’ve included a poster and some art cards. I’m wondering if they might be doing something like that using some of the animation from Power as a bit of a celebration of the release?
Gareth Pugh
September 20th, 2016 - 10:53pmSorry my reply there was to Stike’s post!
Gareth Pugh
September 20th, 2016 - 10:56pmOf course, on the other hand, that could just be an increase in the normal price. Editor Tom Spilsbury has warned on the Gallifrey Base forum a few weeks back that Panini’s head office in Italy have instructed them to increase prices shortly and that as a result it won’t be £4.99 for much longer. We’ll see soon.
Gareth Pugh
September 20th, 2016 - 11:00pmDoctorWhoFan1, I don’t know but I think they might be inclined to give the October release’s cover over to Class, given that it’s launching then. But a TW10 article inside would be a good idea…
DoctorFan
September 21st, 2016 - 8:29pmI got my Copy today and yes indeed issue 504 is for the power of the daleks animation

September 19th, 2016 - 11:18pmI’ll just buy them all. I love collectable covers
Anonymous
September 21st, 2016 - 6:44pm£20 on the same thing? Ridiculous
booboo
September 21st, 2016 - 7:06pmpeople spend a lot more on the “same thing” just because its different
Bryan
September 19th, 2016 - 9:48pmBlimey, I didnt realise these were CGI , i assumed they were models like using the Character Options figures in dioramas.
Might look better printed up. fingers Xd
I do hope this isnt just a retread of the Cyberman Essential edition, although I realise there has to be some cross pollination, due to DWM/Panini and not much new to say that hasnt been said before. Hopefully The Wheel in space DVD gets announced as the next Animation fingers XXd 🙂
Prof Horner
September 19th, 2016 - 9:28pmI have always loved the Invasion cybermen and so I think this is the best cover. No doubt we will be told all about the exciting news about The power of the daleks . I can not wait !
Anonymous
September 19th, 2016 - 8:00pm2nd cover is my favourite but I’m a subscriber so I’ll get cover 1
WouldYouLikeAJellyBaby?
September 19th, 2016 - 7:12pmThese look really tacky and cheap in my opinion. Also am I the only one who thinks that the Cybemen on each cover ressemble their Eaglemoss Figurine Collection counterparts?
Anonymous
September 19th, 2016 - 8:14pmI suspect the same person did the renders.
Anonymous
September 19th, 2016 - 8:19pmWouldn’t be surprised if the renders where done by themindrobber
Tom Baker Plush
September 19th, 2016 - 9:36pmMind Robber’s renders are normally far superior to this. I expect these were done by someone else
Anonymous
September 20th, 2016 - 3:02pmThis is themindrobber’s work, it’s been posted on their Facebook. Certainly not up to the usual stand though I think.
WouldYouLikeAJellyBaby?
September 20th, 2016 - 10:32pmDespitw having said that the cover art doesn’t look very good, I actually really like the cover art with The Tenth Planet and The Moonbase designs on the front. I may pick that up.
The Super Whovian
September 19th, 2016 - 6:22pmSo is anyone else celebrating their anniversary as well as DWM and Titan? Are Big Finish doing anything? Any collectables apart from the Harrop 10th planet cybermen?
whonose1963
September 19th, 2016 - 7:28pmI believe the box set compiling the Cyberman series was Big Finish’s tribute, but that was released a while ago. I’m not aware of any other commemoration, but I do hope for one.
Demdike@CultLabs
September 19th, 2016 - 5:12pmThe worst covers DWM has had in ages. They look sort of cartoon like rather than metallic. When you consider all the great Dalek ones they produced in recent years it’s a poor showing.
Hopefully there might be a different exclusive subscribers cover.
Asher H
September 19th, 2016 - 5:12pmOne of the first two for me. Although I do love the most recent ones
Tom Baker Plush
September 19th, 2016 - 4:31pmThe 3D renders look really dodgy imo. None of the proportions look right which makes them seem a bit chubby
Omega63
September 19th, 2016 - 3:59pmGot to be the first one for me if I had to choose! 😀
matparks08
September 19th, 2016 - 3:51pmwow…love these, very different….Happy Golden anniversary Cybermen……;-)
Dalekparadigm2
September 19th, 2016 - 5:39pmThe irony… Cybermen are allergic to gold XD
Demdike@CultLabs
September 19th, 2016 - 6:02pmSo many refurbs to them, you’d have thought they’d have got round that by now.
