The final season of “Battlestar Galactica” is in full effect on Sci Fi, so it’s as good a time as any to jump headfirst into the merchandising heap. But take note, nugget: You need to represent with the right stuff.
The poster
Battlestar Galactica ‘Propaganda’ 5-Poster Set
($29.95 at nbcuniversalstore.com)
These “Galactica”-themed propaganda posters distill wartime fear and fist pumping into the perfect inspirational imagery this side of Rosie the Riveter. Or Six in a string bikini.
The action figure
Six Action Figure
($14.99 at urban-collector.com)
Yeah, about Six. Of all the characters on “Galactica,” it’s tough to get this sultry Cylon out of our head. (Just ask one Dr. Gaius Baltar.) At least with this detailed figure of Six, you can keep an eye on her by your computer monitor while she monitors your every computing move. Don’t let her talk you into hacking any networks.
The alternate
Commander Lee Adama and C.A.G. Kara Thrace
($6.99 at bigbadtoystore.com)
If that Six figure in her little red number is too provocative for your workspace, opt for this Minimates set of Lee “Apollo” Adama and Kara “Starbuck” Thrace. Small in stature but big on coolness.
The T-shirt
Battlestar Galactica ‘Da Vinci’ T-shirt
($24 at nbcuniversalstore.com)
Sure, it’s the umpteenth homage to Leonardo da Vinci’s “Vitruvian Man.” But if you’re going to wear a “Battlestar” shirt, better to go with art over artifice.
The replica
Battlestar Galactica Commander Pin
($19.99 at emerchandise.com)
Wear this replica commander pin. Command respect. Lead by example. So say we all.
