Newly found 1978 Battle of Galactica photos found

Post by GoldCylon » Fri Aug 07, 2009 11:04 pm

I recently have found the extreme pleasure of meeting two people that were part of the Battle of Galactica from the very begging. Janek Kaliczak, and Robin Bolin. Janek was in change of lighting and also some of the laser work, and also the unofficial Uni photographer. His photos were used as the promos that Universal ran for the show.
Robin Bolin was one of the original ten Warriors hired by Universal to be the Hero Warrior on the set of the Battle of Galactica. This was a inside a building event that the tram drove into the building as you were just captured by the evil Cylon Empire. The Hero Apollo arrived in time to prevent the attack on the human, and the laser battle begins. Apollo fights the Cylons as the human escape the Cylon attack.
The two terrific guys supplied me with vintage photos that have been hidden away since they were taken, but now with their permission I have posted these photos. So take a look back and see what these two guys have given use to treasure again. Thanks Janek, and Robin.

The Janek photos have been posted a while, but the Robin photos are new, and I just wanted to give credit to both guys at the same time.

All three of your links go to page 21? (Seems there are only 21 pages?)

Sorry. I was logged on when I captured the links. I'll adjust the links back.

They are probably posted in the new Gallery. But you'll have to dig for them in the BOG section.
