SDCC Hot Wheels Battlestar Galactica Colonial Viper

Posted on April 30, 2013 at 1:02 pm by Joe Moore under Battlestar Galactica Toy News, Matchbox and Hot Wheels Toy News, San Diego Comic Con

The second Mattel San Diego Comic-Con 2013 Exclusive to be revealed today is a second Hot Wheels vehicle. They will have a Hot Wheels Battlestar Galactica Colonial Viper.

In the desperate search for the fabled thirteenth colony, surviving pilots from the Twelve Colonies fly these single-person crafts, ever watchful for enemy Cylons. You’ve waited for many yahrens… now you can celebrate the 35th Anniversary of the original 1978 TV show with this finely detailed replica Battlestar Galactica Colonial Viper! In 1:64 scale with VUM finish and die-cast body and chassis, this fighter plane comes on a commemorative blister card that evokes the original Mattel packaging and fits seamlessly into your vintage collection.

This product will be available for pre-order at MattyCollector.com on June 4, 2013, to be picked up at San Diego Comic-Con (details to come). It will also be available for purchase at the show.

Read on to see a few images.

    I am waiting for the DC Superman reveal so I cannot get it... Only way I'll go for a DC figure is if it's General Zod

    What is the DC reveal? Hopefully it is someone important like Granny Goodness, Doomsday, etc and not some lame ass villain like Zod.

  7. CMIII's Avatar CMIII says

    04-29-2013, 09:24 PM

    Kain seriously.. Granny Goodness is about as needed as paper at a Paper mill and while I agree Doomsday would be nice I doubt it. If I was to bet it'll be either Superman changing from suite to costume or General Zod mostly because the Superman Movie will be out and the Villain is General Zod

    I've never had much trouble with Mattel's line. I guess that's cause I compare it to Hasbro's.

    If there's any company that's worse than Hasblo it has to be Mattel imo. The countless reuses of the same body, sh#tty accessories, bland paint job with little or no shading, and on and on. But it's what we're stuck with so... God I miss Toybiz.

    I'd buy that Cylon Raider if it were regular retail. But I don't collect Hot Wheels so I'm not paying scalper prices for it.

    These companies lose out on millions of sales by making everything exclusive or limited edition. Oh well, they don't need my money so moving on.

    Agreed. While I'm no longer a "Hot Wheels Collector" per se, I still enjoy picking up the nostalgia-driven vehicles they've put out like the A-Team van, the BTTF Time Machine and the Flintstone-mobile (never could find KITT at retail, though). But in no way am I going to brave the secondary market for this.

    I just don't like BG enough to make it worth the effort.

    You can always do the online pre-order and pick them up. I heard the line wasn't too bad last year. In 2010, it was horrible.

    Well I'm sure they do something to the Cylon Raider and Viper to so they can jack up the price but everything they've done for SDCC has made it to mass retail in a simpler version to meet the $1 price tag of a regular hot wheel. I assume this will be no different.

    I missed out on a lot of those but the ones I do find I find in bunches like the Mystery Machine and Ecto-1.

    I agree I won't look for these on the secondary market but I might ask a friend to hook me up.

    So wait, they want people to preorder an item they won't even show them?

    How about offer a spoiler warning with a link to click on instead?

    Oh wait, that would make sense, and Mattel does not deal in sense.

    The look itself is pretty cool.

    HOWEVER, why the **** is this an exclusive SDCC figure? SDCC figures are supposed to be ones we cannot get in stores because they are obscure. Being that Man of Steel comes out, there is no reason why it should not have been an oversized Doomsday. Not to mention a figure people HAVE BEEN DEMANDING FOR A FEW YEARS NOW!!! But instead, they waste an exclusive slot on a retail type figure just so they can charge double the price for it.

    this guy is disapointing. the cowl is a joke, lack of accessories(DCUC SDCC Figures are usually loaded). This is an unlimited figure that couldnt make retail. lame.

    as much as I disagree with Dr. Kain in this Case I agree. I do love Shazam! and everything Captain Marvel Family. They really should have gone the Superman Family Route. Doomsday does need to be an Oversized at some point if Mattel would just stop dragging their feet ad do it 90% of Club members would be happy. I know you love Mad Hatter and Ras Al Ghul. I want General Zod and Kryptonite Man. For Shazam why not do Isis, Osiris, IBAC, or Sivana.

    You wouldn't get that nice a box at retail. . .

    But yeah, this is a disappointing year for Mattel's SDCC offerings. I'm not interested in anything they've shown yet. Come on Hasbro!

    I would believe it if that was how Mattel would explain it. "Yeah, the figure is not so special, but just look at the cardboard box we're putting it in!"

    IMO, his hood should look more like Kobra's or even Desaad's. For how this thing sits, it must be removable.
