CLASSIC ART: RENDEZVOUS WITH DESTINY!

The mighty Battlestar Galactica, and the rest of the Colonial Fleet, gathers for a doom-laden rendezvous with the Cylon Empire, as seen in this defining conceptual art from Ralph McQuarrie, for Saga of a Star World.

CLASSIC MERCHANDISE: APOLLO - THE T-SHIRT!

A nice composite image of Richard Hatch as Captain Apollo- a classic TV hero forever- for a modern T-shirt range celebrating the Classic GALACTICA series.

CLASSIC MERCHANDISE: DISCO INFERNO!

The mid-seventies was disco-time, and even sci-fi films and television series were cashing in on the act. First was STAR WARS, then came GALACTICA. I'd like to see some Cylons trying to boogie-on down the dance floor to this Stu Phillips re-arranged groove!

CLASSIC IMAGE: GOING DOWN...

Apollo and Starbuck go on a little investigation of the Ovion Casino's out of bounds lower levels, soon making a scary discovery, in this scene from Saga of a Star World.

CLASSIC IMAGE: TRAVELLING WARRIORS!

In a still presumably from Gun on Ice Planet Zero, Colonel Tigh and Boomer get a chance to have a dramatic-looking photo taken near the distinctive solar system chart, located on the Galactica bridge.

CLASSIC ART: GALACTIC LADIES MAN!

That darn Starbuck, he always manages to get the girls - whichever galaxy they're from! - as depicted on this lovely DYNAMITE COMICS cover art from sci-fi and fantasy favourite Dave Dorman.

CLASSIC MERCHANDISE: BIG G CEREAL CARDS (1978)

All-action effects scene card from the 1978 cereal set.

Another nostalgic piece of merchandise that I wish had made it further overseas beyond the US and Australia: a 16 piece set of 1978 cards/stickers for the BIG G General Mills cereals range. Information reveals at least four were create-a-scene cards, 2 or more were cards, 4 or more were stickers and the remainder being cut-outs.

Cylon and Ovion cut-out.

Starbuck and Boomer cut-out

Boxey and Muffey cut-out.

Apollo and Adama cut-out.

Cylon Raider sticker.
