Battlestar Galactica Ships
|
The
ships that Mattel produced for Battlestar Galactica were
miniature versions. You couldn't use any of the action
figures with these ships, but that didn't make them any
less cool. Each ship had a miniature, articulted pilot
to put in the cockpit and some great detailing. The first
series of ships came with spring based missile launchers.
After a choking incident involving one of the missiles
Mattel recalled the products and released peace bonded
versions of the toys. There were two sets of peace bonded
ships. One set still had spring loaded missiles that you
could lock in place and pretend to fire. Some clever kids
discovered you could take the toy apart, file down part
of the missile, and still shoot it though, so Mattel issued
versions of the toys with glued in missiles. |

Cylon Raider
A miniature Cylon pilot is included with
the raider and fits in the cockpit. The wings open up
to reveal two missile launchers.

Colonial Viper
All of the Colonial ships come with a
miniature Colonial Warrior to pilot the ship. The Viper's
wings swivel up and down and the nose piece of the ship
detaches.

Colonial Stellar Probe
This is actually one of the neatest ships.
Virtually every part can be reassebled to create a rocket,
a satellite, or a Viper like ship.

Colonial Scarab
The Scarab kind of looks cool, but isn't
as much fun as the others. The only interchangeability
in this toy is that you can swap the cockpit assembly
with the rocket assembly.This toy had could fire darts
from three different areas.
