Why Pre-Order? (And Why Waiting Is Actually Part of the Fun)

High-end collectibles like Official Props, Hot Toys and Sideshow statues aren't mass-produced tat you grab off a shelf. These are limited, painstakingly crafted pieces—and that means the queue forms before they exist.

Pre-order or miss out. It's that simple. Don't pre-order? You'll be watching fellow Battlestar Galactica collectors secure theirs while you're left searching the aftermarket. We've seen it happen. It's not pretty.

The wait is usually around six months—sometimes more, sometimes less—but here's the thing: life gets busy, time flies, and one day a parcel just arrives. A glorious, unexpected treat that past-you had the foresight to order. Future-you will absolutely high-five past-you for this decision.

Ordered from us specifically? Even better.

The Currency and Cards of the Colonial Fleet.

Beyond the legendary Vipers, Colonial Blasters and Cylon Raiders, the world of Battlestar Galactica (1978) was brought to life through its everyday details. From the distinctive Cubits, the currency of the Twelve Colonies, to the Pyramid playing cards enjoyed aboard the Battlestar Galactica, these screen-used props helped create one of television's most believable science-fiction universes.

Factory Entertainment faithfully recreates these iconic props as a superb Limited Edition Prop Replica Set, meticulously reproduced from surviving original production props. Every detail has been carefully preserved, from the Galactica seal embossed onto each Cubit to the stylised "G" and "L" markings found on the reverse, while the complete Pyramid deck faithfully recreates the artwork seen on screen.

The set includes twelve solid metal Cubits—six marked with the letter "G" and six with "L"—each finished with a durable electroplated coating for an authentic appearance and satisfying weight. Accompanying them is a complete 52-card Pyramid deck, printed on premium casino-grade linen-textured card stock, closely matching both the appearance and handling of the original screen-used cards.

Presented in a premium presentation gift box and accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity booklet, this officially licensed collectible is a remarkable display piece and an essential addition for any fan of the classic Battlestar Galactica series.
