    I agree. I think the Starbuck sculpt needs some work. And the Colonial pilot uniforms need some work. It is not just the jackets, the shirts are missing the pleats or whatnot... as a matter of fact, the Klingon shirt, done in the right material, would have just the right look.

    But I have confidence BBP will get these kinks worked out. Most of the prototypes in the line look fantastic!

      I actually like the head sculpts from the prototype pictures. The head sculpt for Starbuck is MUCH better than the 12" Starbuck figure released by Majestic a few years back. Although Majestic nailed Adama and Apollo, the Starbuck left a lot to be desired. Unfortunately they folded before producing Cain, Athena, Lucifer, Boomer, etc. Hope all of these come to fruition and we get to see a Mego-style Baltar, Athena, and Boomer. Wonderful time for Classic (the only) Battlestar series fans, especially with the new movie coming out next year....

        The figures look great. A lot of work goes into these.

        In the off chance Adama's accessory doesn't include a removable beard I'm going to have to buy 2 figures and sculpt one on. Galactica 80 rears its ugly head when you least expect it.
        If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

                Look at an unpainted sculpt. It actually looks very good, it's just that the paint apps sucked on it. I've seen customizers on here post their Starbucks that used a shrunken-down version of that sculpt and people loved it and said it blew away the Majestic Studios version, when it was the exact same sculpt.

                    All four will be mine, for sure! But not sure who after that I'll buy.

                    Can't wait to see some Pa Cartwright customs.

                      with all the scullpting for additional parts on the armor for the Cylon; I love the fact that under it all, there is a pair of classic Mego hero boots with the tips painted silver. awesome.

                        Yeah, I laughed when I saw that, but totally in a good way.

                            Love it! Can't wait for them to come.

                            One question, is it just me or does the Cylon look like he just finished a VERY big meal.

                                I thought the same about the Cylon but who am I to criticize? It's just awesome this line is being made.
