    I use to have a few parts/figures. But they are long gone now. I do sell repro laser guns for the figures.

      I had most of series 1 but sold them off long ago.....I have been considering picking it up again....but don't really have any set up at this point for displaying 3.75 figures.....i also often consider picking up the Buck Rogers line but don't for the same reason

        Have to say I've never seen them on a card,I picked up a loose Daggit for a buck last year at a flea market.

          I always thought the art was splendidly done on those cards.. You can buy repo stickers on line, with different numberings, etc..

          One of my favorite vehicles, the LandRam, was my 'holy grail' for a while, but knowing that buying a Canadian one will set you back nearly a Grand is pretty depressing.

          WHY couldn't that have been released here in the States..???

          I know it was too expensive to manufacture, but the proposed Electronic Galactica would have been pretty awesome as well.

            Bob, I'm putting you on my buddy list. I've been looking for a repro BSG gun guy for a while now on eBay with no luck. Good to see someone has them!

              i thought mattel could have done better on the 3 3/4 inch figures. they came out of the card with pretty loose joints. starbuck didnt look himself, and where was apollo and boomer!
              adama, baltar, daggit, and lucifer looked good.

                I've never owned one, but always thought they were pretty cool.

                  A few years ago, I bought all four of the ships/vehicles at a local flea market. All are MIB. When I undid the flap to inspect the contents, I noticed that they all are the "misslie firing" versions. Yup, they're still in my collection. I don't actively search out BSG stuff, but when I find something like that.......

                    Still my favorite Mattel BSG piece from 1978.

                      I don't have MOC but I do collect loose.

                      I have always had a love-hate relationship with BSG mattel. My first one was Imperious leader which my parents bought for me thinking it was the Greedo I wanted. Still enjoyed it. Always hated there wasn't Apollo. THAT'S LIKE NOT MAKING HAN SOLO! How do you do that? Anyway, I have the loose figures except for Baltar and of course "Pig Man".
                      Wanted:- 12" Robin Shoes; Mego Batcave, Mego Die-cast Batman-loose, Mattel-BSG Gold Cylon loose.

                        I have them all, still on card, including both Daggits.

                        They're just buried in my Roswell-like storage bunker (garage) of ancient plastic totems.

                        Regards,

                          Love the card art for these. I have a bunch of my originals from when I was a kid and went on a spree getting cheap used ones for the kids to use. (They discovered the show on RTV). I don't have any MOC, though.
                          It's all good!
