Different BSG Viper "Starhound"
I poking around in Fee-bay looking for a deal(yeah right) and came across the BSG Viper Starhound. I have never seen this BSG Viper version before. Anyone have anything more on this Viper?
Here is the link. http://cgi.ebay.com/Colonial-Starho...=item2eb0c78c5e |

Well, at first I thought it was the old starfighter seen in the original series episode "The Long Patrol" but I was mistaken... after looking it up online, the ship seen in that episode was referred to as a "sixth millenium starfighter" and I grabbed a pic of it below, so it clearly wasn't that. Might have to do some more research to find this thing...
Later! OL JR

It's probably to be found somewhere in all this...
http://feggula.0dollarwebspace.com/...zers/index.html Either that, or maybe it was a prototype for a filming model-- maybe a Viper concept that didn't get picked for the filming of the series... I dunno... Course maybe it's still out there on the web waiting to be found... Later! OL JR

Got me thinking!
Well that was interesting! Starhound seems to be the designation for most Vipers.
Well looks like I have a Viper to build. Too many Vipers, not enough time! Good find OL JR! |

Your welcome...
If you find out anything else about this model, please post! I'm betting it's one of those 'role playing' game models or fanfiction stuff or something like that... it MIGHT be a filming model prototype, but I'm kinda doubting it... Years ago I got some books about different star ship designs from Star Trek... many were different ships seen on-screen like the Excelsior, the Defiant, the Stargazer, the Reliant, etc... but there were many others in there never seen on screen, mostly from/for role playing games I guess... maybe some based on film model concepts, some just 'out of the blue' I guess... Later! OL JR

Not a filming model, but definitely some sort of non canon design. From all the shows there were a very limited number of on screen ships. This particular model appears to be a variant that never made an appearance.

It is either just made up or a concept that never got on screen. From some of the stuff I've read about BSG and other sci-fi shows. The budget forces them to use a lot more stock footage than they would like...

Anyone would be NUTZ to order one of these! Unless, there are some of you who seceretly want one of these unique models and you want to donate money that you don't have to purchase one of these models for the sole purpose of "CLONING" a flying model rocket. Me Thinks! |
