	== Notes ==		== Notes ==
	* In ''[[Galactica 1980]]'', which is a [[separate continuity]] of the [[Original Series]], Boxey is the nickname of [[Troy (1980)\|Troy]] as well as the various tie-in novels such ''[[The Living Legend (Book)\|The Living Legend]]'' and ''[[Galactica Discovers Earth (Book)\|Galactica Discovers Earth]]''. Nevertheless, the "Troy" name is not considered as part of the [[Original Series]] continuity in this article.
	* Boxey's last appearance is in "[[Greetings From Earth]]".
	* Boxey is one of the few characters to have a direct analog—without major alteration; he even has a similar hairstyle—in the [[Battlestar Galactica (RDM)\|re-imagined series]]. The re-imagined Boxey is also an orphan who is taken under [[Sharon Valerii]]'s wing in the [[Miniseries]]. However, except for one additional appearance in "[[Bastille Day]]," and a handful of deleted scenes, the character was quickly dropped.

			=== Character Conception and Portrayal ===
			According to ''[[So Say We All: The Complete, Uncensored, Unauthorized Oral History of Battlestar Galactica]]'', the character of Boxey, portrayed by six-year-old actor [[Noah Hathaway]], was a significant part of Captain Apollo's emotional arc.<ref>{{cite book/sswa\|75}}</ref> After the death of his mother, [[Serina]], Boxey is effectively adopted by Apollo. Actor [[Richard Hatch]] was a strong advocate for keeping the character in the series, believing that the father-son dynamic would allow him to explore a more vulnerable and sensitive side of Apollo, moving beyond the "stern, strict commanding presence."<ref>{{cite book/sswa\|76}}</ref> Creator [[Glen A. Larson]] agreed, seeing the value in keeping the child as a core part of the story.<ref>{{cite book/sswa\|76}}</ref>

			A key element of Boxey's story was his companion, the robotic daggit [[Muffit II]], which was created to replace his pet that was killed during the Cylon attack on Caprica.<ref>{{cite book/sswa\|77}}</ref> On set, Muffit was played by [[Evolution\|Evie]], a chimpanzee in a suit, and Noah Hathaway developed a close bond with the animal, considering her his "best friend" during filming.<ref>{{cite book/sswa\|79-80}}</ref>

			=== Re-imagined Series Perspective ===
			Boxey is one of the few characters to have a direct analog—without major alteration; he even has a similar hairstyle—in the [[Battlestar Galactica (RDM)\|Re-imagined Series]]. The [[Boxey (RDM)\|re-imagined Boxey]] is also an orphan who is taken under [[Sharon Valerii]]'s wing in the [[Miniseries]]. However, except for one additional appearance in "[[Bastille Day]]," and a handful of [[List of Deleted Scenes - Season 1 (RDM)\|deleted scenes]], the character was quickly dropped.

			=== Additional Details ===
			* In ''[[Galactica 1980]]'', which is a [[separate continuity]] of the [[Original Series]], Boxey is the nickname of [[Troy (1980)\|Troy]]. This is included in the various tie-in novels such ''[[The Living Legend (Book)\|The Living Legend]]'' and ''[[Galactica Discovers Earth (Book)\|Galactica Discovers Earth]].'' Nevertheless, the "Troy" name is not considered as part of the [[Original Series]] continuity in this article.
			* Boxey's last appearance is in "[[Greetings From Earth]]," sharing that distinction with [[Athena (TOS)\|Athena]].
