Finally got around to watching this show. Just fantastic writing and lots of great storylines. While I would love to see new non-licensed titles, I think this could make a great pinball theme. There could be some great callouts. Heck, perhaps I'll just build one of my own.
I can imagine several great modes: The Final Five, Gaeta's mutiny, New Caprica Rebellion, One-eyed-Tigh, the list could go on and on.
5-10 years ago, it may have been the perfect time while the show was still airing, but I think the ship has sailed on this one

Yup, would have made a great theme. But, with that show long since over, commercially it wouldn't have much of a market. So, if someone wanted to do a one-off custom for themselves, it would be fantastic. Sadly, not much otherwise...
I've thought about doing it myself, but time just doesn't permit...

yeah i was kind of pissed this one ended; was really good. Helix currently airing is from the same guy, and I like it ok but it's not going to be popular, too off center 
It would have been a great theme. I'm still trying to understand why they made the Galactica look like a giant dustbuster 
Quoted from dothedoo:It would have been a great theme. I'm still trying to understand why they made the Galactica look like a giant dustbuster
Because it was modeled after the original Galactica from the original series (1978). That came out before the Dustbuster (1979)...

Better late than never! One of my favorite series ever. If you are into boardgames at all the Battlestar Galactica game from Fantasy Flight games is an awesome deduction/back stabbing game for 4+ people. Kinda complicated but worth the effort if you are a fan of the show.
4 years of the newer installment. , 2 years of the older show and not 1 pinball .... PEACOCK is going to run new material. NOW , is the time !! 12 colonies sounds like targets in an area of playfield. Starbucks artwork drawn on wall in her apt. sounds like artwork for back board . Jump to hyperspace sounds like a high point multiball mode. Menacing older series cylon centurion speech directives could introduce higher scoring opportunities . A launch of viper craft down launch tube sounds like a target lane somewhere on board that captures ball till video screen shoots viper out side of ship then ball ejects up onto wire run down to flippers .. Hey Stern or Jersey Jack ... this sounds easy
