March 4, 2009 : A Timely Battlestar Galactica Update

Wow! This past Friday’s “Someone to Watch Over Me” hit all the right notes, didn’t it?! It just goes to show you how everything can start coming together once the end is in sight, as evidenced by Starbuck and Slick’s stunning piano performance in the closing moments of the episode. I get the same feeling when our action figure assortments finally receive all their relevant accessories and start feeling like their really part of the Battlestar Galactica universe. So enjoy these updated shots of President Laura Roslin and Admiral Bill Adama as we prepare to ride out the remaining episodes, loving every minute of it!

Laura features new glasses, which REALLY nail the likeness down and deliver the quintessential President Roslin look. Those tiny frames actually have extremely thin layers of clear plastic to replicate the lenses, which should go a long way toward cementing Jean St. Jean as one of the premiere sculptors of our day. It’s definitively NOT easy to replicate glasses at this scale, but these removable gems are perfect! Also shown here are the alternate glasses for Admiral Adama and the debut of the free case-topper we’re including with every sealed case - a mustache-sporting Commander Adama! Look for these on store shelves this spring and cross your fingers that our intrepid crew will survive the coming episodes!
