COLLECTOR'S EDITION SET OF 12" CLASSIC BATTLESTAR GALACTICA FIGURES LIMITED TO ONLY 500 PIECES.

(January 6, 2006) - Online retailer Time and Space Toys (www.timeandspacetoys.com) has partnered, with toy manufacturer Majestic Studios, to be the exclusive retailer of a special edition boxed set of 12" collectible figures from the classic 1978 BATTLESTAR GALACTICA TV series produced by Universal Studios. The figures, limited to only 500 sets of Lt. Starbuck and Captain Apollo, are based on the "Experiment in Terra" episode in which the two popular characters are enlisted by the "light of truth and good" that radiates from the "Ship of Lights" to save planet Terra from global destruction.

In this episode, the characters' uniforms and accessories, from their Viper helmets down to their boots, miraculously turn white when in the presence of this protecting white aura. The figures in the boxed set will display an amazing attention to detail with each uniform, including guns and gear reproduced in pure white.

The deluxe packaging features an embossed white on white flapped window box in a clear acetate sleeve. The sets are individually numbered and come with a 'Certificate of Authenticity' personally autographed by actor Richard Hatch, who portrayed the lead central character, Captain Apollo.

"We are proud to offer Battlestar Galactica fans such an elegant product and are confident that it will hit a bright spot in their collections," says Time & Space Toys president Kevin Kriess. "We continue to remain on the forefront of today's hot properties by partnering with innovative and bold companies such as Majestic Studios." The "Experiment in Terra" two-pack has a projected release date of March 2006.
