There are 2 parts required. One once the other quadruple.

The Galactica is a tough one though & it would come down to how accurate you want it to be. Charles Adams plans are a great start but they have been noted as lacking in some areas. Charles himself had stated the plans were now somewhat dated with the new information that had been found from working on the Custom Replicas build & the access to the original model. That information has not been passed on in the plans to date. Unfortunaely these things matter to me as I am just getting my scratch building feet & need plans to be as accurate as possible. I have a set of Charles's plans & highly recomend them as they are the best you will get at the moment. You would easilly be able to correct or add whats missing with your eye for detail. The G has a special place for me(as all that try to or have built it) & want it to be as accurate as possible considering what its going to cost to build it. I am happy to share any parts that I aquire that can be cast. I have a good mate that has spent thousands on kits that he is allowing me to mold which will jointly create an impressive inventory. I would also check out Custom Replicas as they have a comercial product of parts & pieces available http://www.customreplicas.com/Galactica.htm. The work done by Custom Replicas & Charles Adams is invaluable to a Galactica build. A few of our friends & heros also contributed to the work of that project. Great thanks goes to them & all who have helped reverse engineer this model to allow others not so talented to have a go with the chance of succeeding. Big thanks also to Sean Sides, Sean Corsini, Jim Creveling & all that have worked on their G's searching through thosands of kits to find part id's. I can personally say all these people are great artists & very generous contributors to the Scale Arts. Without the work these people have done I wouldn't even consider trying this at home.

As for plans, I would need those but if they are not easily searchable then Im going to have to ask someone . I only have a few of the kits necessary, however if you're willing to share what you have I'd be grateful for that. I would offer compensation for time and materials as well.. I grew up watching the show too, but if I can get 90% accuracy then I'll be excited. At anyrate, thats interesting that CustomReplicas has a "parts" kit available for the G. It might be worth looking into..

I can second the info on Charles plans. I have both sets myself, and there great. The second set is a work of art. It has the templates for every part of the body shell. I told Charles, that it's like " Paint by numbers in 3D " . I can't wait to finally start on my build. I've been collecting kits for over 12 years or so. I still need alot of kits. I'm hoping to get some parts from Jase, hint , hint, There are some kits, I'll probably never find. Like the D51, and Sealab. There are a few I've found, but can't afford, LOL. I'm still looking though. I have 50 or 60 kits I believe, just for this build. I still need 80 or 90,
I think I'll have to get parts cast for several kits. As I still like to eat and pay the bills while I model, Thanks Jase for offering to cast these rare parts. It's a great service to the builders. Cheers,
