I'm pretty sure they are, because they both have $150 price tags on them.

[JMW326]

If you look close one of the tags in front say Resin

[Artistix]

Some of them look very nice.

I don't know if I'd say that looks a lot like Starbuck...but she is still cool.
Racetrack's head isn't too bad either.
Boomer....hmmm. The bust looks good though.
Dualla....hmmmm.
Apollo & Helo are kinda good looking figures.
Number 3 is looking sassy...I dig that attire & hope we see some more figures of her.

Always good to see more figures of Michelle Forbes. I think this holds more resemblance than the Ro figure.

[JMW326]

I think I may have to pass on some of the non uniformed characters. If they make Athena or Boomer in the flight suit ot blue uniform I will get one but I am not impressed with civilian Sharon at all. I am pretty sure they mislabled the racetrac head and that is actualy Cat. Cat was advertised earlier and that is who it looks like. So I will be getting Starbuck, Duella,Cain, Cat (or Racetrac).

[Artistix]

Yeah, that Boomer figures is pretty bad. Reminds me of those generic looking Faith figures DST recently released.

Well, we have our first look at some accesories for Tyrol. The T1 prototype from SDCC had them included.

Also, it looks like they gave him his longer hair from season 3. He looks better.
Does anyone know where his guns are from? At first I thought one of them might be from the season 3 mid-finale: http://www.galactica.....0/310 (1).htm, but it doesn't look right.

[JMW326]

I think the guns may be from when they crashed on Kobol. Not realy sure though and I dont care where they from becuase they look pretty cool. I have never cared if figures come with episode specific acessories just that they come with a lot of them

[Samwise Gamgee]

Hey, good call. http://www.galactica...02/bscap251.htm
Though I was more wondering who used the gun at all. After looking at a few photos, it looks like the marines use the gun on the left the most. I'm not sure about the other one, it seems like that other short gun I linked to before but I don't know.

[knightone]

Yeah, the rifle is the Beretta Storm, which is what the Marines aboard Galactica use.

Diamond has announced another variant bust of Six, this time in her season 2 blue dress to debut at Wizard World Chicago. They will also have T1 prototypes of Six available.

T1 Six has made it to ebay, but the size of the box compared to Chief's gives the impression of no accessories. Though, I can't really think of anything she could come with. I look forward to painted production pics of these.

Wow, Helo made such a drastic change for the better! And they have full belts with holsters! Aside from Lee's new face, this line just got much better for me.
Lastly, the cards on display say January '08 for wave 2.

[JMW326]

Thank you for those pics. I was excited about these before but they look even better now. Helo does look much better now. I cant see the problem with Apollo though. I think he looks great.

[FHC]

I have said that I would not be collecting any of these, but I'm breaking down here! Ok who has them for sale? Can someone get me the cliff notes on what has been released so far and whats coming out so I can catch up? LOL

[JMW326]

The first wave is suppossed to be coming in October. Newforce has the best prices I have been able to find and that is were I have my preorder. They have several different version of the set available.

[FHC]

So this would cover them all then?

Everybody but the Chief. DST is the only one selling him for some reason. ?

[JMW326]

oh yeah, I forgot about chief. I put in my preorder with DST for him a while back. They still show him as available too.

[Artistix]

Helo is excellent!



Apollo is ok, doesn't look as nice here as last time (or in person!! ) but it may just be the angle of the shots.

SDCC


Quite like the look of the rest. Six is a bit of a mixed bag, but good.

They look much better with articulation. Especially Anders.

[Samwise Gamgee]

Hmm...It appears the Centurion might be in wave 2 after all. The core wave 2 assortment of Starbuck, Kat, and Centurion has been solicited in the online previews here:

^^You know Appollo's figure makes him look more like Bashir!
