I thought I would share these here with all of you. These are Battlestar miniatures customizations made with parts from Ravenstar and Armory Toys along with pieces from various other places. I call them Thunderstars or Test Bed Battlestars depending on how I want to use them. Some may ask how I ever came to such an odd crossover decision, but just compare a Viper and Raptor to Thunderbird 4 and work from there. I never did get around to other pod variations for #2 and yes I know that is a very big turret.

Thunderbirds is a British mid-1960s science fiction television show devised by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson and made by AP Films using a form of marionette puppetry dubbed "Supermarionation". The series followed the adventures of International Rescue, an organisation created to help those in grave danger using technically advanced equipment and machinery. The series focused on the head of the organisation, ex-astronaut Jeff Tracy, and his five sons who piloted the "Thunderbird" machines. Perennially popular, the series is still shown today and has inspired a number of subsequent television programmes and films.
