The True History of the Cylons
The Darth Mojo blog has posted an excellent history
of the Battlestar Galactica Cylons, revealing where the really came
from. "There are those who believe that the Cylons were created by
man. Some believe that they were created by a race of highly advanced
lizards who used them as foot soldiers in the war to exterminate
humanity." Not so, says Darth Mojo, they really came from designer
and illustrator Andrew
Probert, based on idea from Star Wars designer Ralph McQuarrie. The
article includes lots of illustrations showing early ideas and proposals
for the
original robots as well as a never before seen look at what Probert
might have designed if he'd been in charge of updating their look.
