Wish I had the money! *Dream*
But I'd really like to know where this odd stand-up collar came from.
They must have re-used the costume in another production. I hope we can find it someday...

Could it have been altered for use in Battle of Galactica?

I don't think so.
The aninmatronic figure wore a completely different costume and the one used for TV commercial was the unaltered, screen-used robe.

Still no idea.
I also never got a reply from Profiles for some additional photos.
If they'd replied, I could have asked them.

Could it be an Impy robe from Battle of Galactica - the old Universal Ride?
I may appear unoccupied to you, but at the molecular level, I'm really quite busy.
