Howling:Regeneration cube?

I remember back in March, that there was word of a "Gallifreyan Regeneration Cube" set that was going to be released around Christmas time. Speculation was at the time that the Cube was a means of resurrecting a Time Lord, and this would presumably be how the Doctor avoided the 13-regeneration limit in the season finale. Well, the season finale was come and gone, and the Regeneration Cube hasn't been heard of for a while. No word if the Cube will feature in the Christmas special. Does anyone have any idea of what this "Cube" really was? -- Bold  Clone  22:44, November 21, 2011 (UTC)

I think the point has been mooted by the events of Let's Kill Hitler. We know regenerations can be taken from one time lord and given to another, and that's what happened there -- she gave him all of hers. Making the shaky assumption that we have seen all of her regenerations (Day of the Moon and Let's Kill Hitler) and that she had the Gallifreyan twelve regenerations (another shaky assumption), knock out this one and the 10th Doctor's meta-critical non-regeneration and that gives him a total of twenty-one lives. Add in the assumption that he might have wound up with another cycle or two in the Last Great Time War and that River's irregular Time Lord status has 507 regenerations and regeneration cubes are a moot point. Where did you hear of them anyway? Boblipton talk to me 01:45, November 22, 2011 (UTC)
