A speical Cylon guest might attend

Post by GoldCylon » Tue Oct 13, 2009 2:34 am

I recently spoke with a know Cylon...yes well he is human, but Eric Melson is his name. Eric played the Cylon in Richard Hatch's 2nd Coming film. Eric would love to attend, and said he will try, but makes no promises. He said it is time to break the Cylon out again, and that he wasn't wore it in 6 years. I invited him onto the forum, and mentioned that there would be plenty of fans lined up to asked at least 1 question. So I hope Eric expects the challenge of a few fellow Cylon fans, and he can make the trek to the Comic Con 2010, and 2011.

Great news! Thanks for working on this GoldCylon.

It would be great to see Eric's Cylon again... wow... 6 years?! I wonder if it is at least on a display (not packed up in storage tubs)?

Eric told me it is in storage, but it sounded more like he needed to work out to fit into it since he last wore it. Lets see how things come along I am exchanging emails with him daily and will keep those need to know items in the forum.

Very cool. Totally understand how it can be hard to fit. I wish I could wear a C-3PO costume... but that will never happen :(

Could you ask Eric about his Cylon's scanner... how is it constructed? Bulbs/LEDs, how is is powered, etc.

I'll see if he is willing to sign up on here. I mentioned to him the question would start up if he OK'd me to mention he might attend Comic Con with us.

I am totally stunned! :shock: That is a great "upgade" and a believable look for the Cylon. It looks more stronger and more versatile than the TOS version but staying true to the simular style. Very clean and well put together...

I really like the new boots... but I'm not to sure about the changes to the helmet... I'd have to see it in person to really tell. I like the "classic" helmet better at this point.
