Provenance

Where it came from

The Auton Soldier card, numbered 353 and designated as a rare creature card, originates from the Doctor Who trading card game released during the mid-2000s. These cards were produced to coincide with the revival of the long-running British science fiction series, aiming to capture the aesthetic and narrative elements of the modern era of the show. The Autons, plastic-based sentient beings controlled by the Nestene Consciousness, were chosen for the game to represent the iconic, uncanny threat they posed in the series' debut episode of the 2005 revival.

The artwork for this card was provided by illustrator Greg Opalinski, whose work is characterized by a precise, digital style often found in collectible card games of that period. Opalinski focused on the unsettling, rigid posture of the Auton, aiming to convey its artificial nature through stark lighting and industrial textures. Upon release, the set was well-received by fans of the franchise for its faithful representation of the show's lore, though the game itself remained a niche product within the broader competitive card gaming market.
