I always thought those Battlestar Galactica ships were X-wing knockoffs. Actually, they look like what you'd get if you crossed an X-wing with an Imperial Shuttle.

Looking around the internet at images, I found this and thought it was pretty funny. Actually pretty sad, but true.

I find your lack of faith disturbing.

You don't know the power of the dark side.

Yeah, the r/c to sci-fi conversions go like this: Traxxas is Battlestar Galactica, the RC10 is the X-wing fighter. That would leave Tyco as the Starship Enterprise.


Okay, I've filled my yearly nerd quota in one thread, in one day, and it's only August. I'm going to bed now. What am I even talking about? I'm an admin on a vintage radio control buggy board! Where's my pocket protector and wrist watch calculator? I've got to hide my lunch money. :shock:

Is that the Enterprise C or the Enterprise D?
