More than a passing resemblance?  It was a conscious effort to capitalise on
SW's popularity.  Production notes from the development of the series bear this
out.  Not that this is *necessarily* a bad thing, mind you.  I actually kinda
like BG (although I'm not a huge fan, that's probably only because I really
never watched it as a kid).

I agree, though, the Cylons did look better than that Technic thing.
