Orbiting a quiet backwater planet, the massed forces of the universe’s deadliest species gather, drawn to a mysterious message that echoes out to the stars – and amongst them, the Doctor.

December 6th, 2013 - 7:16amBut he is holding it in the TARDIS and in the last pic
Dalek the Supreme
December 6th, 2013 - 1:03amThe Moffat Paradox, they were meant to be the new Daleks, but there was a vicious backlash against the new design, and in his efforts to please the fans, Moffat made them an officer class. Also, City of the Daleks and the rest of the Adventure Games are of debatable canon.
Dalek the Supreme
December 6th, 2013 - 1:01amAnonymous, the New Paradigm Daleks were meant to be pure Daleks in larger more powerful casings. Unfortunately backwards thinking fans lashed out at the change and they became an officer class.
The Moffat Paradox
December 6th, 2013 - 12:03amExactly and in Asylum Of The Daleks I thought it was ridiculous that they still had Time War Daleks even if they are supposed to be probably Paradigm Daleks inside.
Moffatt’s talked about them being an “officer class.” So why as in the online game “City Of The Daleks” are there no Time War design Daleks and red Paradigm drones acting as the foot soldiers instead? Which is what you would have expected from what’s been built up about them and what the different colours are supposed to designate.
(Incidentally as you’ll probably know they also created an Emperor in the game and not a “Parliament” and “Prime Minister”.)
Still having the Time War design post Time War and “Victory Of The Daleks confuses the issue and the best way to gain their acceptance would be to show that as yet unseen “awesome strength and power”.
If the Paradigm design is not supposed to be a decisive upgrade (A bit like in nuclear weapons upgrading from Polaris to Trident) just like the latest design of Cybermen what’s the point of coming up with them in Victory?
What was that then in Victory about “behold the restoration of the Daleks. The resurrection of the Master Race?”
(They should also have Davros back as their adviser.)
“All hail the new Daleks!! All hail the new Daleks!!

December 5th, 2013 - 10:40pmIn that case I hope you have lots of doggy Cyber bags too, not to mention strong arms! As for being superior, remember who holds the leash.
Cyber10Dalek
December 5th, 2013 - 9:59pmIt is unclear as of yet but they are thought to be a weeping angel’s arms since they are appearing
Cyber10Dalek
December 5th, 2013 - 9:49pmBut he carries it with him whenever we see a teaser image from the episode. In the Tardis on the snowy street etc etc

December 5th, 2013 - 9:48pmWell, of course, Cybermen are the superior life form and have lots of territories to mark!
the astroanut of death
December 5th, 2013 - 9:37pmproably it is just on the posters because it looks good
Cyber10Dalek
December 5th, 2013 - 9:35pmDoes anyone have a theory on why the Cyber-head we keep seeing might be important? Its a possibility considering that the Doctor carries it around whenever we see a poster/image

Obsie
December 5th, 2013 - 8:21pmOh dear, I think you’re forgetting how many tentacles they have. You’re going to be stopping at lots and lots of trees if you leave it that long.
100000BC
December 5th, 2013 - 7:58pmOh OK! And I’ll need to take it for Cyberwalkies once every few weeks.
Obsie
December 5th, 2013 - 7:53pmGet a Cyberdome for it to live in. Also a Cybersqueeky to wile away the hours.
Obsie
December 5th, 2013 - 7:46pmSorry, I meant Cyberatians!
Obsie
December 5th, 2013 - 7:43pmI’ve found that Cyberations make very good guard hounds.

December 5th, 2013 - 7:38pmHmm, am I supposed to get it something to play with? A Cybone? and shall I get a Cybasket?

December 5th, 2013 - 7:34pmDon’t get a cyberrussel they are impossible to house train 😉
Obsie
December 5th, 2013 - 7:29pmYou could always go for a Cyberdor, perhaps a bit too placid, A Cyberollie would ok, since they’re good at rounding things up!
100000BC
December 5th, 2013 - 7:11pmWhat breed of cyberhead should I get?
Obsie
December 5th, 2013 - 6:39pmThat’s quite true. Never mind a dangerous dog act, we should have a dangerous tentacle cyber head act!
DALEKSKITTLES
December 5th, 2013 - 6:33pmYou never know there might be 🙂 there’s actually so many possibilitys! We don’t know for sure if the paradigm daleks are in this one! They were on the radio times one 🙂
Dalek the Supreme
December 5th, 2013 - 6:14pmI suppose you’re right, though I would have liked to see something in the storyline to suggest it.
Dalek the Supreme
December 5th, 2013 - 6:13pmMoffat had intended them to be the replacements of the bronze Daleks, but the fan backlash against a radically different but undeniably Dalek design convinced him to turn them into an officer class.
