It fascinates me, that these ancient looking hulks, decaying and rusting back into the ooze, have a written, KNOWN history. For all they appear to be something from pre-history, the fact is, it is entirely possible to follow back the history and source of every scrap of rusting iron. Every plate and rivet, back to the…

If the Bolo trying to wipe out your attacking force appears to be dead, start running. You just might make it.

There are more than one comments along the lines of "I'm going to punch the first person who points Glass at me", (go back through a few of the Glass articles on IO9 or the Register, and you will see them), which, according to the very link you posted, fits the definition of 'Luddite' near exactly, as they were famed…

I'm more disgusted with the luddites hating on something when all they've seen of it are a handful of promo clips (never the best way to judge the merits of ANYTHING), and a few 'celebrities' who probably don't understand what it is they're trying to use in any case.

I want a piece of that action. I use mapmyride on my bike a lot - I want to have the speedo in there too. Handlebar mounted phone is a pain in the butt. Turn by turn navigation, minimap, and a +10HP, +30STM, -5MAN hovering over every cup of coffee...

You do know that jet fighter pilots have been using glass style huds for decades right? Hell, even Topgun (the tom cruise movie from when he was still cool), mentions them!

I think that's kind of the point really. When a Time Lord wants to hide, what does he/she end up carrying? Plus, pocket watches are an old favorite for time travel shenanigans in any setting.

The Top Gear toyota is the definitive toyota. Despite everything they did to it (including have it wash out to sea, and implode it along with the building it was sitting on), it still runs. They are the Chuck Norris of cars.

The earliest Bolo tank game was released in 1982, Keith Laumer wrote the first Bolo tank story in the 70's. The 1982 Bolo tank game was inspired by Laumers Bolos.

There was a story involving Berserker-like Aliens, and one heavily damaged Mk33 Bolo.

And you can't even write off a DEAD bolo. Sometimes, they come back again.

Hate to say it, but, the Concordiat of Man's Bolos would wipe the floor with anything short of word-killer robots/superbeings and would even give THOSE a bad day.

Essentially yes. IIRC it wasn't modified much, aside from strap-on wings, hence is crashing and killing the pilot.

Bolo tanks. Giant, sentient, often ancient, in some cases surviving buried under volcanoes for millions of years (It woke up angry, and promptly threatened the archeologists trying to investigate it despite being, essentially, a layer of corroded minerals), and utterly, completely, dedicated to protecting humankind…

I may be mistaken. probably. But i expect these cybermen:

The mechanical 'dropper' for Project Orion was adapted from coca cola bottling machinery. Would have looked boring on screen...

iirc it coincided with a dusty exhibit of 'dead' cybermen. Resembled the cylon in the Galactica museum...

It's mentioned in one of the lines in the trailer.

An amusement park. With a cyberman attraction.

Machine gun.
