Just thought I would see if anyone had one of these stashed away they wanted to sell before I checked on ebay.

Monogram???
Get the one issued by Moebius models.
They just released it a couple months ago in 1/32 Scale.

Yeah I will get that but I'm looking for the actual galactica model from the original series.

That IS the original series Viper (BSG circa 1978)...
It's the 35th Anniversary Edition.
Here's the BSG re-imagined series Viper Mk II (very subtle differences)

Revell released a 30th Anniversary Viper, but they are hard to find.
It's basically the same kit from the 70's except it comes with clear pieces and not as detailed as the Moebius kit.

Sorry, I never knew they made one of those. My mistake.
Just checked eBay... Holy Crap! They are expensive!
Happy hunting.
I only had the Colonial Viper & the Cylon Raider kits as a kid.

Lol. I know the price is crazy!!! I just thought I would see if any kit builders had one stored away somewhere. I know moebius makes a 1:4105 scale version of that and the Pegasus which are about 13 inches long. This monogram kit is around 20 inches.

If you can wait, Moebius is also releasing a scale model of the OS Galactica and should be out here pretty soon.

I'm thinking of going the pre built route. As they make the new bsg pre-built and pre-painted. I emailed them and they said its in the pipeline to make a finished os bsg and a finished Pegasus. I just wanted a large kit that's why I was looking for the monogram kit.
