CLASSIC ART: 'LAUNCH FIGHTERS!"

A superb early storyboard for Galactica's pilot episode showing a vast array of Colonial Fighters launched from the mighty Battlestar against the oncoming surprise attack by the Cylons. In the final version of the episode we got a looking down side shot of only three vipers launching outwards.

CLASSIC IMAGE: STARBUCK GOES SIGHT SEEING!

He may be imprisoned on a far off prison colony bizarrely still holding people hostage for the crimes of their ancestors, but that doesn't stop the fun-seeking Starbuck from enjoying the fine company of the enchanting gypsy-esque criminal Adultress 58 (Arlene Matrel - aka Tasha Martel), in these fun publicity images for one of the earliest shot Galactica series episodes, The Long Patrol.

CLASSIC IMAGE: CHEERING ON THEIR GREATEST HEROES!

An innocent man once again, Starbuck rejoins his loyal-to-the-end friend and Triad game partner Apollo, where he is also cheered on by sports fans across the Colonial fleet, as well as his dearest friends, in this warm-hearted character scene that the Classic Galactica series always did best, closing Murder on the Rising Star.

CLASSIC IMAGE: SPACE WARFARE!

I don't think any fan of Classic Galactica ever got fed up with seeing the sleek Colonial Viper craft in epic space conflict with the deadly Cylon Raiders, and this great T-shirt image composition (I assume from 1978/79) certainly kicks-in the nostalgia in all the right ways!
