CLASSIC IMAGE: BROTHERS AND WARRIORS!


Captain Apollo couldn't have a better wingman on the 'Armistice' patrol than his fresh out of the Academy brother Zac, who scored higher skills ratings than even the formidable leader of Blue Squadron himself.

FACE-FRONT 'GALACTICA'!


A detailed angle of our classic, beloved Battlestar that we never got to see in the original series (and presumably captured when the model was auctioned off a while back) showcasing the face-like front of the mighty Galactica, still one of the best spacecraft vehicles ever created for US TV.

'MERRY CHRISTMAS!' (2025)


Our three favourite Galactican heroes pose for an early publicity shot in or after Saga of a Star World, likely taken mid to late 1978. Their search for Earth continues with heroism and insight.

We wish all our worldwide readers a safe, happy and very Merry Christmas, and a prosperous 2026!

BEHIND THE SCENES: A CYLON ARMADA!


Another great, sadly unused effects shot image from Saga of a Star World, this time showcasing an armada of Cylon Raiders coming in for the kill on Colonial targets. Interestingly, bar one model on a Blue Screen support pole, the other craft images are all seemingly cut out images assembled together on a glass sheet backing. I would love to have seen this shot completed!

CLASSIC ART: A LOOK AT MANKIND'S PAST FUTURE...


Another iconic piece of conceptual art by the legendary Ralph McQuarrie representing the lush, futuristic realms of an alien world in the Colonies, we assume the ultimately doomed Caprica, from 1977/78. It was used for promotional purposes by ABC TV, sadly in B/W form, during their early push for what was originally Star Worlds, then the singular Galactica.
