Battlestar Pinball
I think the extra points on this are all due to the fact that this piece has Ralph McQuarrie concept art on it, seriously that is cool.
The human adventure is just beginning…
Star Trek : The Motion Picture holds a special place in my heart but the rack toys don’t hold a candle to the cool stuff companies like AHI put out for the original series.
