Thank you for bringing some light in the mystery of the additional spyholes of the Vulpa-helmet. Please share every reference photos you have if you like... I'm very curious to see them as well... :wink:

I bet the same "customized" version of Vulpa's helmet was also used for a short sequence of the "Knight Rider"-episode "Halloween Knight":

By the way: Do you have any more informations or pictures of the original Imperious Leader-costume? It was used for a short time for some promotional photos during the "Battle of Galactica"-tram tour at Universal Studios like these here...

Note how sloppy the holes for the hands were cutted in the first picture. It hurts to see how careless they've dealt with their original props and costumes... :sad:

LOL! These pictures were taken LONG before home computers were readily available...and I have never taken the time to scan them yet.

So, it's a matter of going through photo albums (anyone remember those? LOL).

I think you guys will get a kick out of seeing them though. :wink:

When did he work there? It would be great to see any photos he has. Have you shown him the BOG photo gallery section, and the videos I posted?

I can't recall how many years he was in that show...but he was there until it closed. He has some great videotapes he made that shows behind the scenes antics the guys used to do. I will have to ask if he still has those tapes.

I remember, at one time they were using original Warrior tunics. He brought one of those home too. LOL That was when I first discovered the patch was blue, not black as I originally thought.

Great to hear that your brother was envolved with the tram tour.

It would be great if you could post the videos on YouTube or somewhere else... :salute:
