    I'm looking forward to a decent Baltar!

      Well in a photo from SDCC I saw Athena on the card next to the Lucifer prototype.

        Wasn't the Disco Alien Singer shown at Comic Con or at least mentioned? I have absolutely no interest in that figure and I'd rather see a major character like Boomer or Tigh.

            Happy Dance!!!! Would love to see this line go for many waves to get characters like the Borellian Nomen or Jolly, but I would be thrilled to get a Boomer and Tigh figure. Also as an idea could you do a Galalctica Bridge set and have it come with a Daggit figure like the Tardis set is going to come with K-9?
            It's all good!

                *Cough* Deitra *Cough*

                I would love to see a nice Ovion sculpt done - even "deluxe" it would be 11 new molds. (1) Head, (2,3,4,5) Hand pairs - one set smaller to utilize the child body arms from talky tina, etc, (6,7) new torso front and back to accommodate arms, (8,9) torso covering clam-shell front and back sculpted up like the carapace to fit over the bodysuit, and (10,11) specialized feet. Do the four armed jumper in a green fabric with caramel colored fuzz at the ankles, wrists, knees, elbows and trunk (under the clam-shell) in a style similar to the Dr Who Morbius suit, finish with a gold mesh vest and you're set for the next potential army builder.

                That's 2 less unique molds than the Cylon took at 13 by my count, and if they left the feet in stocking bottom it would cut it down to 9 molds (or split the middle at 10 with an ambidextrous foot design)- with far less paint apps.

                I'd like to see Lucifer, Imperious Leader, Android Sisters, Boomer, Tigh, Cass, Athena, Baltar, (and yes, even Deitra) too though.
                I think the bridge playset (or launch hangar bay, or hallway) with Mufett is a brilliant idea.

                  I think it would be great for BifBangPow! to join forces with Zica! Zica has those friggin awesome female bodies, BBP has the license! Together creating an awesome Wave 2 set!

                    Great news to hear major characters are coming. The ladies would nice and I would add Sheba to that list. A Count Iblis would be cool because then I'd get an extra one and try to do a custom of John Steed.

                      I know that the next figures have to get better and I have taken the plunge to support BBP.
                      This toyline has so much potential. I can't help myself from buying them. Actually buying MULTIPLES of them.
                      I need Robots & ALIENS. The number of interesting aliens in this series just gives us so much potential.
                      Ovion (two colors) ,Imperious Leader, Android Sisters, Lucifer, Boray, Count Iblis (2 heads)


                      I will continue to support BBP and hope that this will all come together better on future releases.
                      It means to much to all of us...

                            Could you imagine though? The tooling would be the pricey bit... It's too bad the Imperial/batmobile days are gone when you could do something like this as three flimsy plastic bits and a metal axle with wheels.

                            Or heck even one molded cockpit piece and the wings and body out of engineered laminated print board like the POTA Forbidden Zone playset. It'd weigh less than the pilot!

                              Yes! Count Iblis was a great story arc. It made such a big impression on me as a kid.

                              Any other uses for a Patrick Macnee head would be gravy.
