Anyone buy a replica CYLON from there people?

I haven't heard of anyone buying one of those yet. The undersuit is off, but I can't speak for the rest of the suit, only because of the lack of detailed photo's

Great news!! Well, as for the original Cylon voice vocoder it looks like the deal is a go!!! It is just a matter of time between shipping prices and taxes and other nonsense from overseas shipping before I get this monster. I will keep everyone posted on the details!!

I was sent a patch for the (Cylonix) vocoder for use with windows but I can't seem to figure out how to use it. I am sure that it is decent for what it can do but I sure would like to hear some samples of it

Well Chris congrats on the buy, but I hope you don't have the same problem trying to figure out how to use the vocorder.

Hey Chris,
Big congrats on that. Do let us know when you have it as we need more DVD tracks of CYLONesque phrases.

I keep reading more about BSG.org, and they are very slow about shipping stuff out, and also don't reply to most email request. I think unless you have a LOT of time on your hands to wait for something from them, it might be best to avoid using them as a source of purchase.

I sent them 2 emails about a month ago. Nothing. Nada. Was inquiring about the screen accuracy of the CYLON to no avail.

Dale, I couldn't agree with you more!! I have been saying this for years.

I think, IMHO, the major difference is with stormtrooper armor you are pretty much set to wear it with little difficulty.
The hardest part, as has been noted many times in this forum, is the Cylon "shirt" and "overalls".

I am hoping once I get my suit done, I can "hook up" with the guys from CIV and we can attend events together! I realize their amor is Scott's and not 100% accurate, but it's better than nothing.
Personally I will be going with Jim's armor. I am hoping he can also find a swatch of the custom-dyed fabric he had made so I can replicate it out here.

It would be AWESOME to have a phalanx of Centurions at a future event!

That is great ChrisD, very cool to detail out your work, a wonderful reference.
