Re-live the heroic adventures of the crew of the mighty GALACTICA, fleeing the Cylon tyranny, in its epic search for the lost Thirteenth Tribe on Earth.

CLASSIC ART: GRUESOME ALLIANCE!
Another terrific piece of poster art from the colour MARVEL Super Special of 1978, for the original pilot/movie of Saga of a Star World, capturing the creepy menace of the Ovion miners of Carillon, counterbalanced with the technological might and firepower of a Cylon raider vehicle. Superb art from Bruce Patterson.

CLASSIC IMAGE: DUTY IN A TIME OF CRISIS!
With a rag-tag fleet of 220 ships needing inspection, all of them filled to the brim with starving, angry, ill holocaust survivors, work as a Colonial Warrior is not currently as easy as shooting tin-plated Cylons, as Lt. Boomer discovers during a tense sequence in Saga of a Star World.

CLASSIC IMAGE: DESPERATE TIMES!
The situation is grimmer than ever for our heroes trying hard to put out the raging fires within the Cylon kamikaze-bombed Galactica. And the emotional and physical strain is showing too, as the critically injured Adama's condition soon worsens, despite being capably tended to by both Med Tech Cassiopeia and Dr. Salik, in this scene from Fire in Space.

CLASSIC MERCHANDISE: MODEL MAGIC!
Surely one of the best selling aspects of Classic Galactica merchandise (and Buck Rogers too) back in the day- the superb space vehicles created by ILM/ Universal Heartland available in model kit form via Monogram, as compiled for this great comic advert. In the UK, I had the Cylon Basestar, and it looked awesome.
