Here as fig I've been working on for a while inbetween Joes... Apollo in his ceremonial gear. He's just about finished except for some minor detailing to the cuffs and boots. Just want to get some first impressions. The head is a placeholder until I can find a better likeness.

The SW figures are perfect candidates for BSG pilots. What with the leg holsters, boots and the overall..hmm..likeness of the designs between BSG and Star Wars :shifty: Very nice try, maybe the colours are a bit off in the pic but I think it needs to be more white. For a "battle dress" consider Yavin ceremony Luke. I saw that in a customising project for the Celebration IV. An idea of mine for the Apollo head is Dirk Pitt from Sahara:

Not an exact match but close enough for me. Plus you get an "Eastern" body for extra for your SpecOps troops. It has an extra head to use anyway. I hope I'll have one up for critique soon (I've been planning this for over a year). I have to get a Dremel for the head though...

Looks good. I've always hoped for a 1/18 modern toyline of BSG. If it looked anything like this I'd buy it.
