Notes

  • Dave Moss, curator of Battlestar Galactica Memorabilia, reviews this item as coming with a "really cool Cylon mask" but remarks "It's just a shame the outfit does not look like the rest of the Cylon."[1]
  • The costume along with the Muffey costume was featured in Retrocrush's "THE WEB'S BIGGEST GALLERY OF CLASSIC HALLOWEEN COSTUMES".[2]
  • The costume has been sold on eBay for as much as $125.98[5] and $99.99.[6]
