Battlestar Galactica originals go to auction: Starbuck Viper and Cylon Raider

November 15, 2005 As unabashed fans of applied technology, Gizmag’s 80,000 daily readers number among them many sience fiction fans and many who would have first fueled their sci-fi imagination with Battlestar Galactica (ABC-TV, 1978-79). Accordingly, we feel it is our duty to inform you that two of the ORIGINAL filming miniatures from the classic science-fiction series of the late 1970s are due to fall under the auctioneers hammer on eBay on December 16 and the pair are expected to fetch more than US$50,000. The craft in question are the Starbuck Viper and Cylon Raider, each representing the apex of technology as realized by the Colonials and their arch-enemies, the Cylons. Both of these filming miniatures were created by John Dykstra and the crew of Apogee Effects.
