I liked the Cylon Centurion and Cylon Commander figures from the Trendmasters line. I agree that Starbuck and the Imperious Leader figures were awful.

I had one of these as a kid, and set it down on the ground in front of me while watching episodes of the show. Wish I had it now.

I only got into BSG in 1999. I definitely would have enjoyed these figures, and I don't think Starbuck looks that bad.

I’m really surprised Universal hasn’t done a reboot/requel to the original series.

In regards to nightmares thats odd because in science fiction you should always expect aliens and extra terrestrials.

At first I thought it was my tv, but after fiddling with the rabbit ears, I realized it was the makeup. Loved it.

I thought they looked cool. I still do, no CGI crap

Years ago I found 3 scripts from BG that were never made. Whar would be cool would be some talented fan-film makers could locate them and produce fan-made videos of them.. good luck on the quest

Not at all and we still muck about with that song, it's kind of like a thing with us, probably sounds a bit weird but it's as if it never left our head, just kept rattling around in there😆!!!💚

they cobbled pieces of galactica 1980 which i personally dug more than the 2nd half of the original series when they had to get rid of the cylons and replace them with modern space nazis

💚!

Um, would the editing done for "Conquest of the Earth" insult even someone who actually ENJOYED "Galactica 1980"?

When she hits that low note tho... 😮

Sorry I am late to the party, but just recently, I have begun to re-collect Battlestar merch. My original collection was lost during a move. Recently, I purchased a Revell original Viper model kit and I'm not sure whether to open it and assemble/paint and display or leave it in the box? Any advice would be appreciated.

That surprises me. I was a little kid in '78, and this didn't scare me (and I was scared pretty easily)

I know what; I had totally forgotten this from my childhood. I remember seeing this on BSG when it originally ran, and yeah, I too was a bit creeped out from it. But how long has it been now? Again, until today, I had totally forgotten about this character from the show... thanks for bringing back and reminding of this nightmare. 🤣😂👍

Yup

I was 9 when I saw BSG. I was not scared or marred in any way.

I think I still have one of the vipers today. This was so much fun as a kid to play with

I was 9, when I saw this and I was wondering how they did it! Thought the sisters were really neat. The later scene where the people get off the elevator in the ovian incubation room and you realize what humans are used for Freaked me out!

This is the very first time I've ever seen the actresses who played the singers. Thanks for the upload.

I didn't think the show "focused" on them that much. 😂 i certainly wasn't bothered by their looks. Also, weren't they called the tucana species ?

Love these bits of Galactica history. Please keep them coming

They fascinated me rather than scared me as a kid. I was about five when i first watched it. If i recall correctly, the novelisation referred to them as the Tucana sisters. I'm not sure if Tucana was the dance troupe name or the race, though.

i was a kid im not 50 when i went though it i miss the old univeral studios... man this brings back memories

To be honest as a 7 year old watching these for the first time they scared the 💩 out of me. I used to cover my eyes when they came on. Obviously now looking back they're tame, but they got me as a kid.

Their name is a parody....of the old trio "the Andrew's sisters"...😂😂😂

Spooky.😳 I remember seeing aired.

What? We don't get to hear the song? Gip.

I have a color / silent Super-8 reel that contains footage of the Battle for Galactica tour.

I loved the makeup work as a kid. Better in many ways to the Star Wars Cantina creature makeup. Example, the wolf mask in the Cantine scene I thought was off the shelf rubber mask cheese as a kid. So, for me, the more original looking aliens, the better in any movie or science fiction series.

0:32 - Dunno what happened when I was there in March/April of 1988. But it was closed. I was pretty bummed. I assumed they had finally closed it down.

they freaked me out back in the day !

I think we had one piece this ride in the workshop when I worked at USH. Along with E.T.'s head.

The Cylons marching through the swamp after Starbuck crashed gave me nightmares off and on for years.

That's crazy!

I remember hearing the animatronic masks would sometimes malfunction during filming, causing the eyes to cross. I wonder if the Android Sisters were inspired by a similar looking singing group that appeared in an episode of the short-lived 1977-78 sci-fi spoof "Quark"?

0:37 bro stole Chewbacca’s bandolier.

Seriously? After the cantina scene in Star Wars which us kids loved there were some of us traumatized by this in BG? That's crazy. I was about 7 and thought it was cool.

INTERGALACTIC Disco SUPREMES!!!

I remember vividly me and my mom laughing hard when we saw those singers after watching a rerun of the show back in early 80’s. V’s lizards were a lot creepier. 😂

I'm going to have nightmares tonight. Horrible looking characters, horrible song.

Well, not too unusual for the time. There was also the theme song to The Last Dinosaur. It was a Shirley Bassey sound alike time. Heh. To me they looked like the woman from the Sesame Street cartoon short where the woman in the VW bug can't get her car started so she puts the letter "R" in the motor. The site gag was that she was a tall woman with big hair unfolding out of that little car. I thought "Hey, its that lady!"

Those aliens were brillient! Scifi is supposed to hit you with things you never imagined. Who could have thought of three, four eyed Diana Ross?'

Shame no ones done action figures of those beauties. Can you imagine if Majestic did a 3 pack?

i went on this!

Great stuff!! Thanks for the analysis! Can’t get enough! Especially when it’s info that’s not found on IMDb. Keep up the good work!!

I'd like to hear the instrumental version of that.

I always thought the faces were a trick of camera. Were those masks? or camera trickery?

Not totally connected to the video, but Officer Bonnie Clark was smoking plant vapor in the 70's! I don't know about any other Sci-Fi talking about vaping plants.
