The Hard Six

Season after season we have watched our “Six” grow from a very tall, beautiful, earnest Cylon into a very tall, beautiful…uh, well we watched her remain the same and we love her for it. We count on her predictability. We know her so well. Almost to the point where we could go shopping for her–if ever asked to do such a job. And if we did, we would definitively head straight for the skimpy, tight, backless, red dress section and start grabbing. Then we would obviously make our way to the halter tops. And finally, if time permits, a quick stop in the pointy boots area. That should about do it.

I cannot tell you how many days I have said to myself, “Can’t I just for ONCE see ‘Six’ in something a little different? Sleazier? With chains? Perhaps with longer hair?! Or darker even? I know, why not feather it?! And while we’re changing the hair, let’s change her man! Let’s give her someone else to sleep with. Enough of this Baltar business!” Now, I know I am not alone in thinking these things. You too? Knew it.

Well, someone must’ve heard us when creating “The Plan”. The solution came in the form of “Tough SIx”. (Who the folks around here refer to as “Hard Six”. Because of our affinity for Craps…and double entendre.) She is still our Tricia Helfer, with the same knockout face and body. The difference is this time, we don’t have to see her in bed with the suave and handsome Baltar. We get to see her in a torrid love affair with, um, a more distinguished partner. A wiser lover. Enjoying the company of a seasoned gentleman. Oh alright, she is having an affair with Cavil and it is borderline disturbing. But different and exciting nonetheless. And her hair is indeed, darker, longer and more feathered, just like we wanted. The woman even wears a leather bra and chains, what a difference!

Last week, we had the first of Tough Six’s outfits up in our auction. The outfit consisted of a sleeveless black button-down vest, leather black bra with silver studded cups, burgundy jeans with black acid wash, a leather choker-style collar with silver chains and stiletto-heeled ankle boots with straps. The item had 13 bidders, and ended up going for $1,055.50. I know the rest of you with your eye on that auction were greatly disappointed to miss out on owning it. I myself was eyeing that chain choker with envy and am sad to see it go. Well, because seeing you disappointed is the last thing I would ever want, I thought I would give you a preview of the two, that’s right TWO “Tough Six” outfits we have coming up in the next round of auctions. So you will still have your chance to get a piece of this unique side of “Six”.

The first is a black sheer mesh and lace strapless negligee with matching sheer lace panties. As if this skimpy ensemble wasn’t exciting enough already, included as an accessory is a black lace choker with three silver chains. There is no size information available, but judging from the looks of it, I would call it “teeny tiny”.

The second outfit is a shirt and leather jacket ensemble. A long-sleeved brick red sheer cotton shirt by Hugo Boss with button-down front. Size 36. The jacket is by Kenneth Cole Reaction with four front flap-style pockets. It is a size medium.

Keep watching the countdown clock.  Your day to own these items is rapidly approaching.

Happy bidding!
