Battlestar Galactica tease at the Sci Fi digital press event

by Keith McDuffee, posted Jun 29th 2007 9:59AM

battlestar galactica teaser costumesAs part of the tour of the Battlestar Galactica sets (something I'll report on in more detail later), we were given a look at some of the uniforms shown on the show -- officers uniforms, a flight suit, a burned flight suit and several of Number 6's dresses. Yowch!

All of us couldn't help but stare at what stood off to the right, though. Clearly hidden from us with a sheet such that we'd see very little were three as-of-yet unseen uniforms from the series. We weren't shown any more than what you see to the right here, nor were we told if they were a part of the "Razor" movie or the upcoming final season.

What could be on these uniforms that would give something so big away? Someone on the tour did have an interesting theory as to what they might be.

Take a closer look at the image and pay particular attention to the middle, blue sleeve. Does it look familiar at all to you? No? Does the sleeves on this man bare any resemblance at all to it perhaps?

Let's take it a step further. Look at this posed photo, then compare it to the arrangement behind the curtain. With the exception of the black gloves on the uniform to the left, could this be what they're inferring? And if so, what's this all supposed to mean? Are we going to find out that the people of Earth are ... nah, really?

I stand corrected. Back to the speculation.

@bsgfan -- We saw them building the Demetrius set, which is just a ship already within the fleet:

RE: Those uniforms
Maybe a Spoiler - There will be a new ship coming along called the Demetrius, maybe the uniforms are for that ships crew?

Dorv, you are right on track IMO.

Probably spoilers so read at your own peril:

Facts we know
-The two hour movie this fall (Razor) will deal with Cain and the Pegasus.
-Cain's history is going to be explored even mentioning her role in the 1st cylon war
-Old School Cylons (as seen in the museum in the mini) will be present in the flashbacks

So therefore, using the old school uniforms as Colonial standard is right in line. I say BRING ON THE CAPES AND THE EGYPTIAN HEADDRESS HELMETS!

I think that the most likely explanation is that they will call back the TOS by using the same uniforms in some of the flashbacks. Nothing more, nothing less.

I know this is really off the wall, and the one on the far left I have no explanation for, but the other two - Blue and Gray - Civil War uniforms??? We can't assume the fleet will reach earth in our modern times, so maybe they arrive just in time for the Civil War. Yeah, I know, crazy, but you never know.

Yeah, I'm thinking that we're gonna at some point be shown the past... when everything looked a lot like the props and costumes from the original...

Without getting too spoilery here I am aware that 'Razor' includes several time jumps into the past and I'm thinking the costumes hidden (mostly) from view were used in the film. Did colonial uniforms always appear as they do now? I doubt it. Look at how our own military uniforms have changed over the years.
