In case anyone didn't know. the one in the middle was used in the Major Matt Mason toy line of the late 60s (probably developed as a separate toy but used in MMM). The two on the ends are Battlestar Galactica reissues of the body from the late 70s.

I had the BG versions and liked them, though I recall thinking the Cylon need some more chrome armor. Big Jim had a "laser" hero figure, too, in Europe.

thanks for clarifying those details- a member i bought the colonial warrior figure from suggested i post a side by side comparison pic here. apparently, captain lazer, the only 12"major matt mason figure, enjoys enough of a cult following that there is a website dedicated just to him!

and it seems like the cylon often comes up for sale without the torso armor, which can easily shake loose-it only sits on the shoulders and attaches around the chest light. i'd like to see the big jim laser figure if you have an image handy!
