DELETED SCENE: PEGASUS HEROES...

In their cool combat outfits, Sheba and Bojay, out to secure the fuel dumps within the Cylon City on Gamoray, prepare for action, in this rare image- a scene I don't actually recall seeing on-air, from part two of The Living Legend.

With thanks to the Sheba's World website for the image.

CLASSIC IMAGE: BASESTAR BUDDIES!

A photo blow-up of a Cylon Basestar looms large behind an early promotional image of Dirk Benedict and Richard Hatch for Saga of a Star World.

A lovely shot of Richard Hatch and Jane Seymour playing the attractive, but ultimately doomed pairing of Apollo and Serina in Saga of a Star World.

FIRST REVIEW OF THE 'GALACTICA' MOVIE BLU-RAY...

Christopher Mills at his hugely popular SPACE 1970 blogsite has got the US Blu-ray release of the theatrical release and is overall very happy with it. Check out the review here: space1970: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (1978) Capsule Blu-ray Review

A helpful source at UNIVERSAL has informed me that UK fans might see the release by the end of the year.

So far, the release is only available from BESTBUY, of which I've been hearing bad things about their overall service States-side: Battlestar Galactica (Bby) - Blu-ray Disc

With thanks to Blu-ray.com for the front and back sleeves.

CLASSIC IMAGE: 'GALACTICA IS HERE!'

Though the magazine was available in several select magazine chains for a year or so, I didn't really discover that marvellous US sci-fi magazine STARLOG 'till around 1978, and it was happily one that had BATTLESTAR GALACTICA on the cover- the mighty vessel and a trio of Cylon Raiders in combat, patched together in those early design composite days before Photoshop ruled the world. Still, it was good enough to catch my eye, and, regrettably for my dad, his wallet- a special treat from him to me (my eight year old self) working with him at his shop that day!

CLASSIC IMAGE: DESPERATE TIMES...

Starbuck and Boomer survey the newly assembled Colonial Fleet and discover some horrific truths about the conditions now being faced by the Twelve Colony world survivors. A memorable scene from Saga of a Star World.

The theatrical version of Saga of a Star World is now available on US Blu-ray. Get it here:
Battlestar Galactica (Bby) - Blu-ray Disc

CLASSIC ART: AMBUSH!

Female shuttle pilots turned Colonial viper pilot warriors come under surprise attack from Cylons, outside the ancient Kobol temple site, in the terrific cover by Walt Simonson for the MARVEL COMICS adaptation of Lost Planet of the Gods.

CLASSIC IMAGE: "SHE MISSED ONE. THE CYLON DIDN'T!"

In the Pegasus's cramped Life Station area, Cassiopeia and the Battlestar's medical doctors tend to the injured Sheba, watched by a concerned Starbuck, Apollo and Commander Cain, in a tense scene from The Living Legend part two.

CLASSIC IMAGE: IN THE VIPER TUBE

A Viper sits in its launch bay, ready to blast into the stars and battle, in a terrific model sequence that appeared regularly in the weekly series.

AT LAST! CLASSIC 'GALACTICA' ARRIVES ON BLU-RAY!

Finally! Saga of a Star World's theatrical version is available on US Blu-ray this May 14th. Get it here: Battlestar Galactica (Bby) - Blu-ray Disc

Reports indicate that if the movie sells well in the format, a full episodic series release could be on the cards.
