The Bronze colored Cylon was seen two times. The name of Vulpa was used in "Gun on Ice Planet Zero" and then with no name in the final episode "The Hand of God"

Young lords had the bronze CYlon. Hand of God was gold...right?

What's about the Command Centurion in "Living Legend"?
The true color of him is hard to see in that lighting...

I'm really thinking iving Legend Centurion was Gold. I say this because I polished up and installed a repro scanner on the original Gold guy for Dale. The cut of the face section looks the same.

Just this morning I was watching 'The Hand of God' again to look at the color of the command cylon... definitely a bronze color moreso than gold, though I see possible lighter colored pieces on him. And what about parts that have turned up in people's collections like boots and gauntlet nozzle that have faded copper paint on them?

Skullbeast sent me an email last night about the "Young Lords" so I went and watched in. This image isn't the best because of lighting, but the about two second clip I could clear see the following as the image has pointed out. A Bronze Cylon, and a Gold Cylon in the same frame. I also pointed out a few other items.

Huh... interesting. Now I gotta go check it on my 55" TV screen! Maybe we need a copper cylon emoticon too?

The Gold Cylon is on the auction block right now at
http://www.propworx.com/ I sent it down to Anaheim about 3 weeks ago, while the Bronze Cylon aka Vulpa "Gun from Ice Planet Zero" is at the Seattle SciFi Museum.

That Castle has been around since the 30's, and since it is was the only Castle on Uni property at the time of filming I will have to agree with you. That Castle was over in the far corner of the property, but since has been torn down. I guess it hadn't been used in years, and was more of a storage pit than a filming location.

That's to bad I remember that castle from the tour and I did not think they would ever destroy it. I did have a thought that it might have been destroyed in the fire but either way it's gone.
I remember they were storing alot of the big parts from Gun on ice planet zero right next to the castle those are probably gone now too.
That interior looks familiar as well maybe from some Errol Flinn movies, also saw Robin hood men in tights yesterday on the tube (Flat Screen now) and it's the same scene especialy the stair case next to the arch
