Grea tinfo, I will definately need extra weapon sets, and uniforms. I know the HT uniforms are going to be smaller then Dragon and SS figures, but how would they look on the larger bodies? right now my entire collection is SS and Dragon (with the Amok Times Galactica Guys) I wold hate to have to switch everything now.

Edit, I know you want to do sets, but here is something to think about. The Tan part of the Warrior's Uniform (tunic and pants) are actually the same for the Battle suit and Dress Uniform. The shirt was just untucked for the dress uniform (and the leather belt added) You can set up 3 packages. The Tans (or blues for Bridge crew) The jacket (for those who want just the jacket) and then the Dress Cape. necklace and belt. Mixing and matching will get you those Uniforms.

Plus the majority of the bridge crew wore tans minus the jackets, background chracters, yes, but filler

My exact problem too.



Will any of the uniforms or accessories be sold seperately?

HT should be bigger than Dragon, not smaller. Dragon bodies are shorter and slimmer than HT true types.

Until I have them in hand to try on a dragon body to answer that, I don't know yet.

If you guys are gonna get nerdy enough to want background characters in the jacketless tan uniforms then god bless you. laugh.

What you say about the Dress uniforms is true (they also had different boots).

It would make sense to sell them the way you suggest.
Equipment, boots, weapons, and accesories we will sell seperately.

With the sizing thing, if I'm remembering the history of this project correctly WST originally thought the Majestic bodies were Dragon analogs when they are in fact Sideshow analogs. Despite the continued use of the Dragon name for the scale, the so-called "Dragon" heads aren't actually Dragon size, they are correctly scaled to fit the Majestic/Sideshow figures which is why they are bigger than the HT sculpts. They were done in that scale so people could reuse the Majestic parts on the original body. So for this project, when you hear "Dragon" don't think Dragon scale, think Sideshow scale.

No, they are literally made "Dragon" size. The Majestic Sideshow-sized clothes will fit Dragon bodies just fine and I consider the Dragon bodies to be better articulated. Back when I wasn't sure if we were gonna be able to make costumes, I wanted to make sure as long as we were making better heads they wouldn't have to go on figures with no wrist articulation.

Oh, I can get quite Nerdy, I do have a complete Colonial Warrior's costume and working on the Dress Uniform as well (you are absolutely right about the boots. The dress ones are brown versions of the blue Uniform boots)

Great news. Can't wait to get my Apollo and Starbuck heads!

Re: WGP's Classic Battlestar Galactica thread (TAKING CHARACTER INTEREST LISTS)

Awesome news, will place my order ASAP!

Also a little sad that these are coming the same time as Indy...may have to let one or both of those go for now. How long of a window do we have to order these? No way I can swing both this month.

As long as I have you on a list for what you are interested in I am not worried about spacing out payments for the various heads.

Pulling things out of storage can be like Christmas!

After spending some quality time reacquainting myself with the Majestic figures, I am really interested in seeing WGP's uniforms as well.

Just because updates are nice, here are the cast Dragon heads with necks shortened by Dorgmal ready to get shipped out in a big box to Sean this weekend, for him to split up and ship to everyone.

Dormal also just showed us these neck adaptors he made we will be sending instead or drilling, so you put these on the body and just glue the heads onto them.
