'''Earth Cylon Centurions''' are the models of mechanical [[Cylon (RDM)|Cylon]]s discovered on [[Earth (RDM)|Earth]]. Some 2,000 years before the [[Cylon Attack|Fall of the Twelve Colonies]], they rebelled against their [[Thirteenth Tribe (RDM)|humanoid masters]] and instigated a nuclear war that left Earth inhospitable to life ([[Sometimes a Great Notion]]). It is unknown if any units of this type survived the conflict, but on-screen evidence suggests that this is not the case. These are the oldest mechanical Cylons that have been seen in re-imagined series continuity, pre-dating the [[Cylon Prototype|U-87 prototype]] created by [[Daniel Graystone]] by two millenia. | |||
==Appearance== | |||
*They appear to be metallic in nature, like the [[Cylon Centurion|Centurions]] of the [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)|Twelve Colonies]], but the design is markedly different. The visual effects department was inspired by the helmet of Japanese samurai.<ref>Anatomy of an Ancient Cylon: [http://darthmojo.wordpress.com/2009/06/12/bsg-vfx-anatomy-ancient-cylon/]</ref> | |||
