A friend of mine on another board has started producing action figures from the Buck Rogers franchise, and believe me, you will drool over these suckers!
Right now, it's just that particular line, but if that is popular enough, hopefully, he will look into getting a license for classic BSG.
There are a lot of people on that forum bugging him to get it, so who knows? Maybe he will.
The thing is, in order for a line to succeed, there has to be a certain amount of profit involved.
I got one of his basic headless male figures for customizing purposes, and the thing is GREAT!!!!
Beautifully articulated, nicely buff, and it comes with three extra sets of hands.
The thing is, I am hoping that there are enough fans out there for a BSG line to be successful.
I'm going to get his permission to post a link here, and you can all take a gander at the goodies that he's offering.
I'm already down for a Buck and Tigerman.
Next I will get a hold of Hawk, and maybe Twiki.
What say you, my brothers and sisters?

I'd love to see what he's doing. I have the Majestic Figures , and was looking forward to the seemingly canceled second wave. I have even done a Lt Edan figure, using a custom painted head and the Majestic figure gear. Not sure I'd get many of the Buck Figures, as much as I've enjoyed that series, it's more of a guilty pleasure, instead of somethign I'd look for. Hawk might have to make a crossover though

ok, these are Old MEGO scale figures. about 8 inches. Nice detailing on it, I've seen some of the figures on other sites.
Just not a scale I'm into.

I can't see anything all I get is "This is the default page" If you see this page it means:
•hosting for this domain is not configured or •there's no such domain registered

Try typing it into the search box.
I have the feeling that the period at the end of the sentence is what's giving you trouble.

He wants the license too, but right now, he's more focused on getting Buck out the door.
I've seen pictures of Buck and the attention to detail is FANTASTIC! The clothes, the accessories, the sculpts; EVERYTHING!
I'm looking forward to this line, believe it or not. I used to love Buck Rogers in its first season. The second season, with the exception of Hawk in the cast, sucked.

I had seen these available from some merchants a while back, very well done. I was hoping to see more of them from the BR line, but BSG would be a nice addition.
