Behance user Leolux IV has made some super cool and retro pulp magazine covers for familiar modern Sci-Fi shows and movies. I can easily imagine these as actual pulp covers had these shows and movies arrived decades earlier.
I love what he did with these. The Star Trek one with Carol Marcus is the best! I hope he makes more. I would collect the hell out of these if they were real.
Gaius Baltar would love this Cylon Centurion ring from PaulMichaelDesign. These awesome rings are available in Sterillium sterling silver, 14K white gold, palladium and platinum. You can even get an 18K yellow gold command centurion. Each has a natural diamond cut ruby for the eye.
This is one frakkin’ beautiful ring!
This Custom Built Light Up Battlestar Galactica is frakkin’ awesome. It was created by OtherWorldModels and is a custom built and painted new-series Moebius Models Battlestar Galactica model kit. However, he put in some amazing upgrades.
Like full hull plating decals, detailed and lit hanger bays, other photo-etched detail pieces, and upgraded guns. Because Galactica needs her guns. I love how those engines glow. You would be proud to have this ship on your desk.
The 1970s was an awesome time for Sci-Fi. We had Star wars, Battlestar Galactica, Logan’s Run… I could go on all day. Jeff Quigley obviously loves himself some 1970s Sci-Fi, so he created these amazing retro 70s Sci-Fi posters.
There’s a Cylon Centurion, The Six Million Dollar Man as a Cyborg, Twiki from Buck Rogers represents an Android and even Knight Rider as a Vigilante. I love the retro style and colors. These could have easily been promotional posters for these shows back in the day.
If you are a Battlestar Galactica fan, new or old, you are going to love this book. It takes you behind the scenes with the series’ creators. This book is worth the asking price for the images alone. This is the kind of book that I could sit with for hours. Learn about the special effects, storylines, exclusive interviews and more.
Basically Battlestar Galactica Vault: The Complete History of the Series 1978-2012 is a complete visual history of the show’s evolution, from the original 1978 series all the way up to Caprica and Blood & Chrome. This is a must have for serious fans. Check out a video below to check it out.
Etsy seller muckychris is truly an enlightened soul. I know this because he sells all kinds of cool Geeky Zen Buddha Statues. Check out a sampling below. They are sure to help you reach your zen place and might even bring you some luck sitting on your desk. You can get Yoda, Boba Fett, Cylons, Batman, Groot and many more.
These are fun geeky decorations and they are only $7.99. Plus every order comes with a free Millenium Falcon keychain. Shut up and take my money! These figures are fun and several would look great together.
Look at the images below. Do these model of Sci-Fi ships look like paper to you? No way. They look like professional replicas. However, every single one of them is a papercraft creation. They were made by Japanese craftsman uhu02. I am just blown away by the level of detail and the fact that they don’t even look like paper.
He has created an X-Wing, a TIE Interceptor, Viper Mk2, 2001’s Orion and many more! This man is a true artist with paper.
January 2nd was National Science Fiction day. NBC actually did something cool to celebrate. They created this recut trailer for the original Battlestar Galactica. It is awesome. It makes me want to dust this series off and watch the whole thing again.
If they released this trailer today for a new show on NBC, do you have any idea how much money they would make? Let’s get back to making some amazing Sci-Fi on TV guys. This trailer made my day. The original BSG had everything. Robots, space battles, overacting, Robot dogs and more. I miss you original Battlestar Galactica.

Megan Lara’s series Ladies of Battlestar Galactica (For Quantum Mechanix) shows the women from the show in the style of various classic works of art. For instance Starbuck is drawn in the style of Polish Art Deco painter Tamara de Lempicka. Sharon “Athena” Agathon is in the Art Nouveau style of Austrian symbolist painter Gustav Klimt.
They all look amazing and dare I say it? It paints them all in a new light. It is the perfect combination of geeky and classy.
It’s that time of year again and you have to find some good gifts for friends, family and for yourself. Well, we all love Sci-Fi so we have compiled a list of some classic DVD and Blu-Ray sets that you can give this holiday season.
Some of these are not new, while others are. There’s a little something here for everyone. All are classics that we like to watch again and again. So this year give the gift of Sci-Fi or fantasy. Happy holidays from Sci-Fi Design.
