BEHIND THE SCENES: RECON MAN!


From The Long Patrol, a lovely sketch from the series costume designer Jean-Pierre Dorleac for what would become Starbuck's Recon Viper One costume, an item which sold in auction a few years back, and notably carried along with a signature from Dirk Benedict himself!

CLASSIC MERCHANDISE: ARRIVING ON DVD!


A terrific full page advert from the US Premiere film magazine of 2004 for the then eagerly awaited DVD release, which would be packed with special features to make it a must-have purchase. The Cylons once again proved themselves as a cool marketing tool for the classic series.

BEHIND THE SCENES: OFF-DUTY 'RED EYE'!


Before being pulled back on a special harness to simulate the effect of Apollo's blaster bolt, actor/stuntman Rex Cutter takes a breather inside the battle damaged Cylon 'Red Eye' suit, in this moment behind the scenes from The Lost Warrior.

CLASSIC IMAGE: 'WE MOVE ANYWHERE'!


They move anywhere. One of the great and memorable ships of the Rag-Tag Fleet seen in the pilot episode of Galactica and in stock footage through the series- the Colonial Movers vehicle, whose filmed model would be sold off in auction a few years back. Love the colouring and detail of the ship.
