Instructions: Take the role of one of the Doctors to retrieve the key components whilst battling deadly foes and race back to the TARDIS to complete the repairs and be declared the winner!

Nightmares in Silver Cybermen Collection

Box set of 10 metal miniatures by Warlord Games from their Doctor Who Into the Time Vortex Game. Supplied unpainted.

Ideal for display or use in the Doctor Who – Exterminate Miniatures Game.

The Cybermen, eternally popular (and very persistent!) villains, are second only to the Daleks in people’s minds when they think of classic Doctor Who monsters. This latest release, to mark 50 years since their first on screen appearance, is a 10 figure pack featuring the key designs from over the decades.

Unlike the subtle changes to the Daleks over the history of the programme, the Cybermen have undergone several major re-designs over the years, but the retention of the silver colour scheme, round eyeholes, and the iconic handlebars on the helmet is present on every design.
