Re: How many of y'all own one or more (Galactica Geek-O-meter)
To my shame looking at that list. None of that.
Just the DVD boxset and the two Galactica books.

I have plenty of #1.
A home made/adapted #2
A Tan #3
Definitely #4
Wish, but could never dish out the $$$ for #5
#6 would be nice, but sadly none. Although a friend had a "snow jacket" from GOIPZ, and supposedly also used by Dirk in G1980's Return of Starbuck. So I did get to wear that at least once.
#7... is on the list if I win the lottery, along with a 1/1 Mach 5.
And this can be combined with the uniforms, or maybe a #8... I have a warrior flight helmet. Looks nice on the shelf!

Re: How many of y'all own one or more (Galactica Geek-O-meter)
Umm, I have:
1: box of stuff
4: Blasters, holsters etc.
5: Full cylon costume with lights and sounds.
6: the spacesuit worn by Kent in G80 (reused from 'Fire in Space' the Apollo hero costume), some screen used cubits, a patch.
Plus a load of repro props, patches, viper helmet, All metal Cylon sword with steel blade.
Some other stuff, lots of signed photos collected in person. the entire collection of paperbacks... etc, etc.
Edit: From looking at the other replies I think I am a geek!

Re: How many of y'all own one or more (Galactica Geek-O-meter)
Chris..
Since you started this and set the benchmarks, how many of those categories can you say "yes" to? Just wondering...
As for myself, I've only got some of the models (Viper, Battlestar), the original paperback books,he series of hardback mvels that Richard Hatch co-wrote and the DVDs for the original series and G80.
PS - You should have DVDs on that list as a category...

Bryan, I sort of figured that anyone on this site HAS the DVD's...
As for myself,
1) Models aplenty, Vipers especially, Joyride Viper, Cylon...
2) Working on my new daily wearable one right now.
3) Tan tunic, of course.
4) Gun(s) & belt/holster- a must.
5) No Cylon costume, but I been around MANY.
6) Sadly, no screen-used stuff.
7) I have a full sized Viper- it flies even. Then I wake up. Like David, when I get rich.
8) Novelization of Saga, old-style photo-novels, official scrapbook, stills, Marvel comic reprint, Cylon Apocalypse graphic novel, 2 Kerin edits, etc.
So, I'm not quite a 10 on the geek-O-meter, but I'm trying!

Re: How many of y'all own one or more (Galactica Geek-O-meter)
I forgot to mention that I have the Joyride display models and figures (all of them). I also have the Platinum metal die cast TOS BSG ships. I also have the 12" figures of Apollo, Starbuck and Adama. I also have a first draft script of Saga of a Star World as well. Not like many would appreciate it these days, but I do have a personally autographed picture of Richard Hatch that a friend got for me when I was sick during a con.

Re: How many of y'all own one or more (Galactica Geek-O-meter)
Not for lack of desire for these things, but purely lack of cash and opportunity!!
However..
I won B&W promo photos.
Have audio recordings of eps, DVDs and the commercial videos and DVDs
I have most of the Thurston books, the photo novel (3 versions) some of the
comics, a lot of scrap book articles of the era.
had penfriends (pre internet, remeber) acquired as being an 'associate attendee' of one of the first BSG Cons
and that killer geek ace
write fanfic :-) :-)
Cheers,
Lara

Re: How many of y'all own one or more (Galactica Geek-O-meter)
Well, I have 7 out of the 8 sort of...
The only thing I do not have is anything screen-used. Those are hard to come by!
As for the 'sort of' part, I do have a cylon helmet but not the rest of the armor suit (yet) and I do have a sort of full size mock up cockpit I use for my Battlestar Callisto short fan films...

1) Yes, more than I can count.
2) Yes.
3) Tan, for the jecket.
4) Both (also have the new Sidi Joel Roberts boots, dyed up to match).
5) Just the helmet.
6) I think I might have a couple of original cubits that I bought back in the 80's. Not entirely sure, though.
7) Nope. No room and not enough $$$.
8) Yes, also too much to quantify.

Lets see, I have the 12 inch Figures, and 3 unassembled 1/72 scale Vipers, (and plans to convert one into a Scarlet class) and a 1/72 scale Colonial Shuttle (gonna pick up some Revel Raiders since they are close enough to 1/72 scale to fit in lol) So that covers #1
Definately have a Warriors Jacket, With Pegasus markings.
I have a set of tans, but they don't quite fit well enough to wear, but I'm going to get a custom set done (wife also has a blue set of blues.)
I have 2 complete gunbelts and 4 lasers myself and the wie has a laser and gunbelt.
No Cylon or screen used items
I wish I had the space for a 1:1 scale Viper. I have it works out so I could build the one Viper, and conversion pieces so it can also be a Scarlet class Viper as well lol
I have most of the classic and the Hatch novels as well as a sampling of the comic books as well
guess I'm a Galactica Geek lol

My tan tunic I made in '79 still fits me! Holy frack! It's snug, but not snug enough to warrant a whole new one. Thank the LOK.

I have all the novelisations and the Photostory.
A few published fanzines too.
Cylon DVD Head Set.
And membership at quite a few BSG clubs or lists. . . that's got to raise the mercurion on the geekometre and really belongs on the list!

I suppose writing Galactica stories would be a high level of geekdom.
Fail that proof of no social life

Re: How many of y'all own one or more (Galactica Geek-O-meter)
Nothing fancy. Cubits and Adama's medallion from the derailed DeSanto version.
OK, the latter isn't really a screen prop but I like it.
All my best,
Russell
