With all the excitement regarding the latest Marvel series, this news nugget slipped through the cracks.
Art Asylum has released packaging shots of the upcoming Previews exclusive Battlestar Galactica Mini-Flyers.
The battle damaged Cylon Raider will be piloted by the Red Stripe Cylon, while the battle damaged Viper will be piloted by an equally battle damaged Starbuck.
No word on when these will be available, though best guess would be later this year.

…He was released, with the TRU exclusive Viper MVII (in stores now). The “PX” exclusives are “battle-damaged” versions of the TRU releases with different figures.
Now, as for the PX exclusives. I’m a bit disappointed that DST chose to place an obvious army-builder (Red-Stripe Cylon) with a ship that most will only need one of (“Scar”…if it still is to be Scar and just not a random damaged Raider). Of course, I was equally disappointed to acquire 8 “Gold Command Cylons” (which never existed in this series) from the TRU release. It would have made more sense to have switched the figures (red-stripe w/Raider, gold w/ damaged Raider), or just have a standard Cylon with the TRU Raider; Red-Stripe could have then been paired with a Colonial Marine as an exclusive for troop-building. I hope there’s a few more surprises in store for this line…I still need a Mk II Viper (and Raptor if possible) before they close the lid!

ah, thanks!!!
and i know what you mean about the Mk II
I actually pre-ordered it all those years ago, back when there was no Galactica line to speak of, was mortified when i got the email telling me it would never be made
