I have the Original Series Apollo, Silver Centurion and Gold Centurion and think (hope) that I will be getting Starbuck for Christmas. I know that Majestic is planning to do the new show but I have not seen anything other than the Cylon yet. Overall these are pretty nice figures.

I have Starbuck, Apollo, Silver and Gold Cylons, and Adama from the original BSG. I believe Boomer and Athena are supposed to be available soon, if not now, and the Starbuck/Apollo boxed set with white uniforms is already available from Time and Space toys now, but i dont have them yet.

Not sure what pic you may have seen, but the Adama does looks ok, but his face isnt quite as full as Lorne Greenes was , and the pictured figure on the box looks better than the figure does. The prices on these figures are getting rediculous though, i bought the first figures in the series for $29.99 through toysrus.com (Apollo,Silver Cylon). Thought that was a little high but i paid it anyway. The second series(Adama,Starbuck) were $39.99 through Toysrus.com and were no better quality than the first series, so i grumbled a bit and then found them a few bucks cheper, no much though at Walmart.com. The gold Cylon was a Tower.com exclusive, got it on sale i think for a couple bucks below the $29.99 regular price. I see that the wave 3 will be at least $39.99 each but Timeandspacetoys.com have them for 36.99 preorder. Wave 3 should have already been out though.Timeandspacetoys.com also has the exclusive white uniformed Starbuck and Apollo in a boxed set for 109.00, which is pretty dang high by my standards. 54.50 a piece for these figures is too much IMO, but what are you going to do? wait for someone to sell cheap on ebay probably.

Yeah, not suprising on the Time & Space guys not getting back to you DrHoward. I e-mailed them after SDCC(San Diego Comicon) last year to try and get some other figures for JMW326 and myself and haven't heard back yet
Maybe if we're lucky, Sideshow or DST will pick up this line. Not sure about the rest of you, but I need a Caprica Six to go with my Cylon's

Thanks for the replies, Donster! I'm sorry you had the same problems with Time & Space as I've had. Hope you got your figures anyway! I don't know why I expected better from them...
I'd still love to see 12" from BSG though! But to be honest, I'd prefer for Sideshow or DST to make the crew in their blue uniforms. For some reason, I'm just not that jazzed over the flight suits.

I've had many, many successful transactions with T&ST. I think I only had one time where they weren't responsive to e-mails, but overall I feel comfortable recommending them.
Maybe I'll e-mail them this weekend about the status of my Lee Apollo 12" order and see if they respond.

This was their response this afternoon:
Hi Dan:
It's been delayed a few times now. I may know more after the International Toy Fair in two weeks as we will likely see the manufacturer there.
Sorry I don't have any more info....

As for Majestic... I picked up an Appolo with Tower clearanced them for about $10.
Honestly, as someone who collects alot of 1/6 scale figures, I thought $10 was about right. Actually that might be a bit harsh, but I certainly didn't think they were worth the $50 price tag.
I was pretty excited abut the SDCC exclusive, but when I actually saw it, I could convert that to a sale. It was allright, but, again, I just didn't think it was worth the price.
I'd def say $100 > was too much for any exclusive they made. Heck I have one or two Medicom figs and I think they are overpriced.
A decent 12" figure shouldn't run more than $30 to $40. A preimum figure shouldn't top $75 IMO.
