any idea where I can get the red piece of plastic with the holes in for the led's that fits in the cylon helmet.

You can try to PM member C.O.R.A and see if he may have any still.

thanks. I have just sent him a message.

Was there a company in the US called universal armour or something similar in the late 1990's that made cylon costumes as well as other props.

well I have managed to get a undersuit, its not great but atleast it will be better than nothing. With any luck my armour pieces should arrive soon and I can get started.

Great news!

got the armour from hand straub today. One step closer to getting a cylon that looks like its spent 30 years in a swamp.

Going for a swim in the swamps on Antilla no less...

Can't wait to see the first photos of this very promising build!

Cool - I actually think a "lived in" Cylon is going to be awesome!

some photos of my project

Your user name is a perfect fit for this armor. Good job.

A+ work, Rusty!

thanks. Glueing the back pack together was interesting. In the end I reinsorced it on the inside by melting the plastic edges together with a soldering iron in several places.

Any idea who originally moulded the cylon head. It doesn't look like a cora or hand straub one.

Agreed it is not HS or CORA. My first reaction was Krop - based on the mowhawk shape... however I don't think it is. The eye scanner inset (black area) is a different shape than Krop's - and they come pre-plated.

Hummmmm
You have a mystery helmet! COOL
How is it made? Solid 1 piece... plastic/fiberglass, etc.? Maybe more clues and someone can help you ID it.

Whoever made it, you are building it AWESOME!
