T-Minus 2 Days Until the “33 Auctions”

It’s almost the time for the launch of the “33 Auctions”, 4 monthly auctions, separated by 33 days each, that will be the last of the Battlestar auctions.  Each auction will include items from the Battlestar movie “The Plan,” out on DVD today, as well as items from the entire series.  Propworx latest BSG auction on eBay will kick off 2 days from now (tick tick).  So close!  So set your schedules accordingly and get ready for your last chance to purchase original props and costumes from the greatest Sci Fi series of all time.

In an attempt to make your mouse-clicking fingers tingle in anticipation, we thought we would give you a preview of a couple items that could be yours!

Of course, there are secrets we must keep for now.  We hardly want to be known as the “bearers of spoilers”.  “The Plan” tells the story of the Miniseries through Season Two of BSG from the Cylons‘ point of view.  It resolves many unanswered questions that have no doubt given BSG fans sleepless nights since the series ended.  Get ready to sleep like a baby again–”The Plan” is being released today on Blu-Ray and DVD!  Many of the items up for bid in this first week of auctions are directly related to the new twists that unfold in “The Plan.”  Keep an eye out, they are among the 200 items that will be launching Thursday.

In the meantime (without giving anything away), here are two items we are proud to be offering:

BATHROOM DOOR FROM GALACTICA

Bid on one of the doors from Galactica’s unisex bathroom!  It was used in the Miniseries and throughout all four seasons of the series, as well as being a prominent element in a very important scene in “The Plan.”  The door itself is a sheet metal covered wooden door with a sliding latch.  It is one of only four remaining.  Why not try for the whole set?!!  This piece is not only iconic and a great conversation piece, but impressive in its size and design.

COACH’S CLIPBOARD AND GAME PLANS

The C-Bucs and their coach were involved in “high altitude training” at the exact moment of the Cylon attack on Caprica, and thus, survived.  How fortunate for them…or was it?!!!  “The Plan” gives a detailed account of this pyramid team turned resistance fighters in the weeks following the Cylon occupation.  This prop, used specifically in “The Plan,” is Coach’s plastic clipboard featuring a Buccaneers logo on the back.  It includes one full-color page of eight plans for plays.  Since the C-Bucs play such a prominent role in “The Plan,” there are many new items used by the team that will be offered in the auctions.  This happens to be one of our favorites–very striking and in excellent condition.  Also, to the delight of our “nerd sides”, the game plans themselves appear to be an homage to the classic Nintendo game, “Tecmo Bowl”.
