I had seen something about this new card set. I have the other one from Rittenhouse when that came out last year. Great cards! I can't wait to get this new set.
BTW, I saw this little blurb on that scifihobby site "That Mark Hamill was offered the role of Cmdr. Adama but turned it down."
Had anyone ever heard this before? I haven't. Not only that, but wouldn't Mark Hamill have been a bit too young to play Cmdr. Adama? After all, this was in 1978 and just a couple of years before, he was playing a 20 year old Luke Skywalker! Perhaps they meant Cpt. Apollo or Starbuck?

Charybdis,
My guess is that they have their story wrong. Richard Hatch auditioned for Luke Skywalker and I think made it through at least the first round of auditions. I bet that's how the story started.
I think Mark Hamill was kind of busy at that time, filming the greatest movie ever made...and no, I'm not talking about Corvette Summer!

I just saw a full page Ad for the new BSG trading cards in the latest copy of a Comics Buyers Guide (page 207 to be exact). The ad showed cards with a picture of Jane, Anne, Dirk and Hatch. But the odd thing is.....Hatch was wearing a blue bridge officers uniform on his card....i dont remeber that ever happening on the show.....
Any one got a clue? Maybe he wore it to a con or something?

It's what Apollo wore when he got married.
