Where it came from
Vrestin, Menoptra Leader, is a trading card featured in the Doctor Who CCG (Collectible Card Game) released by Magpie Games in the early 2000s. The card depicts the character Vrestin from the 1965 serial 'The Web Planet,' a landmark story in the show's early history that introduced the insectoid Menoptra species. The card was designed to integrate characters from classic Doctor Who episodes into the game's strategic mechanics, allowing players to utilize the unique traits of the Menoptra.
The artwork for the card captures the elaborate, high-concept costume design typical of the 1960s production era, which relied on practical effects and expressive masks. The card was produced during a period when fans were seeing a renewed interest in classic serials through DVD releases, and its inclusion in the set was intended to offer deeper narrative variety for players familiar with the First Doctor's travels. It remains a representative piece of mid-2000s franchise merchandising that focused on deep-cut lore.
