It's implied that all Cybermen from Series 6 onwards are from our universe lacking the Cybus Industries logo and instead having the circular designed chest piece. However, it's also implied in Series 7's Nightmare in Silver that the Mondasian and Parallel Earth Cybermen had met one another and allied themselves fighting in the Great Cyber Wars together. So from Series 7 onwards excluding Series 10 we Areias fact seeing both types of Cybermen, a nice tie off for the Parallel Earth Cybermen.

I feel it likely started with the Series 5 and 6 Cybermen, since it wouldn’t make any sense for the Mondasians to somehow invent the exact same design as their Cybus counterparts. Seeing Cybus designs flying Mondasian style starships in Series 5 and 6 makes me think that the Cybus Cybermen met their Mondasian counterparts in the space-time vortex after the events of “The Next Doctor.”

I like how doctor who has so much rich history and detail behind it, that is what happens when you have a very flexible show with 50 years of content and many writers, but Gallifrey was done badly, I used to imagine it like Middle Earth from Lord of the Rings, a magical mysterious planet with rich history, but the show handled it badly and made it feel empty and cheap which is why I am glad they destroyed Gallifrey, because it was already ruined and the timecards felt weak, but now we know the doctor is from another mysterious world with proper timecard like beings. Now that new mysterious world doesn't feel boring and empty like Gallifrey, because we know nothing about it, if the show ever explores it, they would have to do it properly or it will be ruined like Gallifrey.

I really loved how they carried over the original Mondasian design into the modern day. A lot of tv series that started in the late 20th century try to make up for the technical limitations of the time by revamping costumes into intricate and updated designs or simply using cgi. The doctor who team was like “you know how the original cybermen looked like guys in fabric costumes with cardboard boxes strapped to their chests? Well that’s how the cybermen look canonically. Here’s one now to prove it.”

The obvious tragedy of the Cybermen is that they were probably always Dr Who's most grisly concept, but increasingly sidelined as robots. And there are a mere handful of stories that explore what they actually mean in terms of humanity. But there is still scope. You see it in modern politics and the psychopathy of that. And the inability to design societies around humans rather than machines.

IIRC the Lumic Cybermen were reverse-engineered/re-developed from corpses of the Modasian Cybermen, found by Lumic. Ironically, he improved on the design: Only the brain was used compared to full-body conversion (even through they later did this during the Battle of Canary Wharf and beyond), and he eliminated their weakness to gold.

Fantastic episode of "The Story Of" guys!!! Gave me a lot of information I didn't already know (particularly at the beginning of the video about the very start of the Cybermen). 20:35. Lol.😂😂 I'd LOVE to see a Sarah Jane story of. That would be great as I haven't seen much of the classic era and my knowledge is limited.

It's implied that all Cybermen from Series 6 onwards are from our universe lacking the Cybus Industries and instead having the circular chest piece. However, it's also implied in Series 7 Nightmare in Silver that the Mondasian and Parallel Earth Cybermen had met one another and allied themselves fighting in the Great Cyber Wars together. So from Series 7 onwards including Series 10 we are seeing both types of Cybermen, a nice tie of for the Parallel Earth Cybermen.

also small tangent, I dont think in World Enough and Time and The Doctor Falls, I don't think the Master upstages the Cybermen. If anything, they're upstaged by the cybermen and are honestly a great addition to the episode.

I believe nightmare in silver comes after all stories as those Cybermen were more powerful than their predecessors and had super speed, therefore the blew up the planet as nothing could stop them. I believe Ascension and TTC come before the Cybermen that appear in Dark Water and Nightmare in Silver is when the Cybermen finally died as we've never seen the versions from that episode which had superspeed and basically invincible. Honestly its all confusing but that's basically how I see it

This could explain why the main universe Cybermen look the way they do in the later modern Who era... They are STILL the deadliest foes of the Doctor... The only ones that we could REALLY become!
