Battlestar Galactica Colonial Blaster Prop Replica

Description

Battlestar Galactica Colonial Blaster Original Prop Replica – Screen-Accurate Collectible

The Original Colonial Blaster Props
Unlike many sci-fi props, there was no single definitive Colonial Blaster used during filming. Instead, multiple versions existed, each with unique variations. Originally kit-bashed by the prop team, these hand-crafted blasters were assembled using found parts from off-the-shelf model kits of the era.

The hero props featured a functional light-up barrel powered by a flashbulb system, which required a bulky external battery pack. Wires ran down the actor’s sleeve into the handle—an innovative practical effect for 1970s television. Due to the limitations of broadcast resolution at the time, the original blasters were rough and flawed, with visible bubbles, warping, asymmetry, and soft or uneven details.

The Factory Entertainment Replica Blaster
To create the most accurate and collectible Colonial Blaster replica, the team at Factory Entertainment conducted extensive research, examining surviving props, production photos, and archival footage. While the quirks of the originals are nostalgic, this replica intentionally refines and enhances the design for modern collectors.

A brand-new 3D model was built from the ground up using reference materials. Asymmetry and visual distortions were corrected, and missing or incomplete details were faithfully restored. The final result is a premium, screen-accurate Colonial Blaster replica with modern upgrades.

Crafted from durable, high-quality resin with hand-painted detailing, the blaster features a metal barrel and integrated electronic light and sound effects—all housed within the prop itself, with no external wires required.

Each replica includes a certificate of authenticity, making this a must-have for serious sci-fi collectors and Battlestar Galactica fans.
