Sideshow Collectables is now selling a Life-size Cylon, as seen in the re-imagined Sci-Fi Channel series ‘Battlestar Galactica’. Standing 7-feet tall, Cylon features “the haunting visor lights of the robotic soldier synchronized to the menacing, eerie hum of the Cylon Centurion.” The life-size figure features a 100% fiberglass body with a Hammered Duo-Tone Finish. Each Cylon is hand-made (which explains why orders take 8-12 weeks to complete) exclusively by Fred Barton Productions, and officially licensed through Universal Studios. Buy your own 300-pound Cylon for only $7900.00! What a bargain.
I’m not a Battlestar fan. It’s not that I don’t like the show, but instead that I haven’t had a chance to watch it (despite all my friends highly recommending it to me). I always wanted to pick up Sideshow’s Terminator T-800 Endoskeleton 1:1 Scale Replica, but like most people - $5950 is too much for me to spend on a geek decoration (but who knows… maybe someday). Check out more photos of the new Life-size Cylon figure after the jump.

I never really got into BG either, but wow, that is one nice-looking cylon. When I make my first million, I am going to fill my house with odd and wonderful “collectibles” like this. And maybe a human skeleton.
I’m just kidding about the skeleton! Probably.

I as well have heard nothing about good things about this show, but never caught it on or felt compelled enough to press two buttons and tivo.
This is actually the first time I’m seeing the new Cylon design. Very SW PT Super BD, aren’t they?

I wasn’t prone to watching BSG either, but I picked up the miniseries and was hooked so hard and so fast, take a few hours and watch the miniseries, your local blockbuster will have it or it gets repeated on scifi all the time. so worth it!

Liz, you don’t have to be rich to collect human skeletons. Just own a chainsaw, and run a truckstop in an isolated place…

umm - let me know when they make a full size silicone anatomically correct replica of Six and her light up spine… then you’re talking.

I worked at a SPFX shop several years ago and we’d done up a really good (we all though so anyway) display/demo for the producers and Brian Singer when he was slated to direct BSG. The producers loved our stuff, he didn’t. Then they went to cgi and moved the whole production to Canada. Well, we all wanted to really hate the series when it finally came out, but couldn’t… It’s brilliant. I haven’t seen all of them, but the ones I have seen are amazing… Oh well… Ya can’t win them all.
OH, btw… The paint job on this thing sux! I’d make them repaint it before sinking $8000 into it. It’s almost embarrassing.

It would certainly scare burglars away. :-) But that would be a rather expensive solution. I like the series too.

Why does that thing have that ingrown-head with ‘”Scream3″ mouth, that wasp-waist with child-bearing hips, and girly Jack Skellington hands with fragile little pen-knife fingers??? Such a stupid design. Those toasters are the only really awful thing about this great show (aside from the season finale last year). How I wish they’d used the Cylons from the first series or eliminated the toasters alltogether…. they have no useful purpose in the new story whatsoever anyway. And they look totally fake because the CG is so bad. There I said it.

You’re right, Juan. The CG in the show for the Cylon robots (the space FX, however, are great) isn’t very convincing. I’d rather they just use human actors acting a little inhuman than have the robots on the show. The re-design didn’t impress me, either.
