Depending on how many copies they have of 1.2, 1.3 & 1.4 then perhaps the easiest way of repressing is just doing disk one to x amount and mixing it in with the other episodes as a 'new' box set.
I never could get on with Cyberman and Dalek Empire though. Too unremittingly grim.
And having the same main lead actor was a misstep as well I reckon.

Great news, I've been hoping for this. And a very appealing price. Will be getting this!

Not for me but glad for all those who've wanted them back on CD
Sets and interesting benchmark though, can't be too much longer till we have the best of the 1st 50 MR Reprinted and Repackaged this way surely?
Edit
Although its also an easy solve for BF to something to mark the 50th Anniversery

I presume the reason there was no series 3 was because of lack of sales. With renewed interest in these wonderful releases, perhaps we will at last gat a new series of Cyberman.

I'm actually hoping this will lead to some kind of Dalek Empire rerelease. I thought Cybermen was just ok, but I LOVE Dalek Empire.

Already have the originals. It's the material created for this release that intrigues me. I'd like the option to buy it as a DL at least without having to buy everything again.

So, the new Cyberman - The Complete Series 1 & 2 will be £25 on CD or £20 to download but the original Cyberman 2 is still £25 to download? How does that work? Why would anyone buy it if it's included on the new set that is coming out?
I assume Cyberman - The Complete Series 1 & 2 means it includes Cyberman 1.1 through 1.4 and Cyberman 2, right? So unless you want the original series 1 CDs, might as well just wait for the new re-pressed series out in May, I'm thinking.
Also, the story says, "To mark the new release, the first episode of the series Cyberman: Scorpius will be made available to download for free to all Big Finish newsletter subscribers until May 31st 2016." I haven't received a newsletter with a download code, yet. Has anyone else?

I haven't received a newsletter with a download code, yet. Has anyone else? Yeah, I only have 1.1 Scorpius (from a purchase years ago, I haven't seen the newsletter yet either) so I was all set to start taking advantage of the new 2.99 download price for the other three parts of Series 1, and just get Cyberman 2 some other day. Then I saw the price on the download for Complete Series 1 & 2 was only 20.00! So what if it means I'll be rebuying 1.1, it's still the cheapest way to do it. So that's what I'm going with. My guess is that since it's listed as a "Web Special Price" this is a pre-order discount, and the price will most likely go up to something like £30 after May 31.

The newsletter with the Cyberman 1.1 freebie link has not been sent yet, according to whoever from BF answered me on their Facebook page.

I'm actually hoping this will lead to some kind of Dalek Empire rerelease. elkawho: You'd be willing to buy all 18 Dalek Empire episodes again, just in order to listen to a bonus disc worth of interviews and/or music suite? I'm earnestly curious about your conviction.

Hmm...that's quite a bargain, although I have little interest in the more obscure spin-offs this is great news and at that price it's moved onto my 'maybe' list, I wonder if this and the S.P/T.C.O.M vinyl re-release are setting a pattern for new re-releases...Unbound or Dalek Empire boxsets maybe?
