Airwolf, Battlestar Galactica, and Sixth Scale Factory Entertainment SDCC 2026 Booth Images
Factory Entertainment had a packed booth at San Diego Comic-Con this year, and Tommy Vargas was kind enough to walk me through the highlights they had on display, giving us a closer look at the company’s expanding lineup of classic sci-fi collectibles that span both Airwolf, Battlestar Galactica, and their sixth scale figure lines. Starting with Airwolf, the big reveal was the first prototype of the iconic helicopter itself in a collab with Ramen Toy, and this thing is shaping up to be something truly special with planned working lights, sounds, and electronic features that should make it a centerpiece display item for fans of the show. What makes it even more exciting is that Factory Entertainment is developing 3.75-inch Airwolf figures designed to actually fit inside the vehicle, which means we’re not just looking at a standalone replica but the foundation of a full-scale play and display ecosystem that collectors of that era of television are going to lose their minds over. On the Battlestar Galactica side, there’s a lot happening at once, and the momentum behind this line is clearly building fast. Wave 1 of the 3.75-inch figures has been performing so well that Factory Entertainment announced preorders will close on July 31, so if you’ve been on the fence, the window is closing quickly. Wave 2 was also previewed at the booth, and it expands the roster with characters pulled from both the original and reimagined series, including a Cylon Centurion that’s specifically designed for troop building, which is exactly the kind of move that gets army builders fired up. The sixth-scale Battlestar Galactica line is growing too, with newly revealed Commander Adama and Cylon Centurion figures joining the previously announced Starbuck and Apollo, and there’s also a unique customizable figure concept rounding out the premium offerings that adds an interesting wrinkle to how collectors can engage with the line. Factory Entertainment is clearly going deep on these licenses, and between the Airwolf helicopter prototype and the expanding Battlestar Galactica waves across multiple scales, they’re carving out a real space for classic sci-fi properties that don’t always get this level of attention in the collectibles world.
Airwolf
The Airwolf helicopter prototype dominates the display case, with its stub wings carrying sculpted rocket pods and missile pylons mounted underneath.

The tail boom stretches out with a sculpted tail rotor hub and individual blades, and the horizontal stabilizer fins are cleanly shaped with sharp edges. Panel lines and rivet rows continue all the way down the boom to the rotor assembly, maintaining that consistent surface detail from nose to tail.

For us, the centerpiece was the show debut of the prototype Airwolf helicopter, an early look at the highly anticipated vehicle that is planned to feature working lights, sounds, and additional electronic functions.

The cockpit door is open, giving a clear look at the fully detailed interior, including sculpted seats, an instrument panel with individually molded gauges, and illuminated display screens throughout the cabin. Those lit-up cockpit elements are a great touch on a prototype this early in development.

The company also displayed its upcoming 3.75-inch Airwolf figures, which are designed to fit inside the helicopter. Stringfellow Hawke stands alongside the Airwolf helicopter, wearing a gray flight suit with a zippered collar, a belt at the waist, and tall boots. He carries a sculpted flight helmet tucked under one arm, and the head sculpt has clean, sharp facial features with short brown hair.

The rivet detailing along the fuselage and engine nacelle is dense and consistent, with rows of tiny raised bumps running along every seam line. A small figure stands near the nose, giving a strong sense of just how large this helicopter is at 3.75-inch scale.

3.75″ Figures
I’m really excited to see Factory Entertainment bringing both Dominic Santini and Stringfellow Hawke to life in figure form. The pair are shown wearing their signature light gray flight suits with black boots, detailed zippered pockets, and black utility belts, while each carries a black flight helmet tucked under one arm. Dominic stands out with his red cap and a smiling expression that perfectly captures his easygoing personality, while Stringfellow Hawke has a more serious portrait with neatly sculpted dark hair that reflects the calm, focused pilot from the series. Displayed in front of the Airwolf packaging, the figures give a great sense of the line’s direction, and it’s easy to imagine them stepping straight into the cockpit of the iconic helicopter.

Sonny Crockett and Ricardo Tubbs stand together in their signature Miami Vice outfits, with Crockett in the pastel pink tee under a light blue sport coat and white pants, and Tubbs in a gray suit over a dark open-collar shirt with a chain necklace. The Crockett packaging behind them features a painted portrait of the character and a sunset cityscape wrapping around the box.

Steve Austin is in his tan button-up shirt, matching pants, and a belt at the waist, standing in front of the Six Million Dollar Man packaging. Jaime Sommers is beside him in a white zip-up jacket with striped collar and cuffs over dark pants, and that head sculpt captures Lindsay Wagner’s likeness nicely.

Thomas Magnum stands in his iconic red Hawaiian shirt, blue jeans, and a baseball cap, with a camera accessory and a gold chain peeking out at the collar. Beside him, we can see Michael Knight in a dark leather jacket over a red turtleneck and dark jeans, with the Magnum, P.I. packaging displayed behind them both.

Battlestar Galactica
The 3.75-inch Battlestar Galactica line also received significant attention. Factory Entertainment announced that Wave 1 preorders will close on July 31 after exceeding sales expectations and previewed Wave 2, which expands the lineup with characters from both the original and reimagined Battlestar Galactica series. Among the highlights was a Cylon Centurion army-builder, giving collectors the opportunity to build out their Cylon forces.

The Cylon Raider electronic vehicle prototype fills the display case, with its curved hull covered in engraved panel lines and a cockpit canopy open to reveal a seated Cylon Centurion pilot flanked by two additional Centurion figures.

Three Cylon Centurion figures sit inside the Raider’s cockpit, their chrome-finish helmets and sculpted chest armor packed tightly into the recessed cabin behind a molded instrument console. The surrounding hull detail is sharp up close, with deep-cut panel lines and circular mechanical elements sculpted into the upper fuselage.

The Cylon Raider’s forward cannon is a chunky, multi-segmented barrel assembly with sculpted mechanical joints and a hollow muzzle tip, seated inside a recessed weapon bay behind the curved hull plating. That green geometric emblem on the lower hull is a nice touch, adding a bit of faction-specific marking to the otherwise neutral gray surface.

Two Colonial Viper Mk I production samples are on display, one mounted on a round base and the other on a pylon stand, both showing the classic white hull with red and gray striping along the fuselage and wing surfaces. The cockpit on each is open with a visible interior, and the engine nacelles at the rear have sculpted turbine-like detailing with segmented gray banding.

The Colonial Viper Mk I on the round base shows a clean view of the fuselage underside, with recessed panel lines and a cannon barrel mounted beneath the nose. The engine nacelles have sculpted exhaust nozzles with concentric ring detail at the rear, and the wing-mounted laser cannons extend forward with ribbed barrel segments.

The Colonial Viper Mk I production sample has a triangular canopy frame over the open cockpit, with a brown seat sculpted inside the cabin. Red accent stripes run along the upper fuselage spine and across the vertical stabilizer, and the twin engine nacelles carry fine greeble detailing with rows of sculpted mechanical ribbing.

The Wave II 3.75-inch Battlestar Galactica assortment includes Commander Adama, Kara “Starbuck” Thrace, Count Baltar, and the Imperious Leader. It’s nice to see the line expanding into the deeper roster of characters from the original series.

The Battlestar Galactica Wave II assortment includes Commander Adama in his Colonial uniform with a flowing cape, Kara “Starbuck” Thrace carrying her Viper pilot helmet and wearing her signature flight jacket, Count Baltar dressed in his green tunic with a black cape, and the imposing Imperious Leader in flowing crimson ceremonial robes. Each figure captures the distinctive costume and appearance of its respective character while continuing Factory Entertainment’s detailed 3.75-inch action figure lineup.

Factory Entertainment also previewed a Wave II Variants assortment featuring multiple Colonial Warrior variants in different poses and appearances, Boomer in his blue Colonial uniform, and an alternate Imperious Leader sporting a striking silver and gray color scheme. The variant lineup offers collectors additional display options while expanding the depth of the company’s growing Battlestar Galactica action figure line.

A Cylon Centurion prototype stands in front of the QR code display card, its chrome-finished armor sculpted with segmented plating across the torso and limbs. Behind it on a raised platform, Starbuck is in her olive flight suit with a sculpted helmet tucked at her side.

The Battlestar Galactica Wave 1 production samples are lined up with their packaging, featuring Lieutenant Starbuck and Lieutenant Boomer in their brown and tan Colonial warrior uniforms standing in front of their respective boxes. A Cylon Centurion in chrome armor and a gold-armored variant stand to the right, with the gold version carrying a sculpted cape and distinctly ornate helmet detailing.

Sixth Scale Figures
A full display case captures Factory Entertainment’s sixth-scale lineup across four shelves, with Jurassic Park’s Ian Malcolm and Alan Grant prototypes on the second shelf, the Jaws crew on the third, and the Battlestar Galactica sixth-scale figures filling the bottom row. The sixth-scale Cylon Centurion’s chrome armor and Commander Adama’s caped uniform look impressive at this larger scale, sitting alongside Apollo in his brown Colonial jacket.

Rick O’Connell stands on a gold-toned base in his brown leather harness and khaki adventure outfit, with a holstered sidearm and sculpted pouches along the belt. Lt. Starbuck’s olive flight suit has a glossy finish with sculpted strapping and buckle details across the chest and legs, and her head sculpt has clean, sharp features with short blonde hair.

Ian Malcolm and Alan Grant stand together as sixth-scale Jurassic Park prototypes, with Malcolm in his all-black outfit including an open leather jacket over a dark shirt, and Grant in his denim button-up, khaki pants, and wide-brimmed hat. Grant’s head sculpt has a solid Sam Neill likeness with defined cheekbones and a weathered expression.

The Jaws sixth-scale display features three figures from the film’s crew: the Amity Police Chief costume replica in a tan uniform with a black belt and holster on the left. A creative “blank body” figure packaged with a recognizable outfit inspired by a character whose likeness rights could not be secured, allowing collectors to customize the figure themselves while still representing the character in their displays. Hooper in his blue denim jacket with a leather satchel slung over one shoulder, and Quint in his olive field jacket with a dark bandana tied around his head. Weathered yellow barrels sit between the figures as accessories, and Quint’s base has a wood-plank deck texture with a harpoon accessory beside him.

Factory Entertainment also continued to expand its sixth-scale Battlestar Galactica lineup. Previously announced Starbuck and Apollo were on display alongside newly revealed Commander Adama and a Cylon Centurion. Four sixth-scale Battlestar Galactica figures fill the bottom shelf, with the Cylon Centurion’s chrome armor featuring sculpted segmented plating and a swept-back helmet visor, and Commander Adama in his dark naval uniform holding a microphone accessory. Starbuck’s brown Colonial warrior jacket has buckled strapping across the chest with a holstered sidearm at the hip, and Apollo’s matching brown jacket features gold clasp detailing down the front with a tan flight helmet resting on the base beside him.

The sixth-scale Cylon Centurion is an impressive piece up close, with its chrome armor carrying deep sculptural detail across the helmet’s angular cheek guards and the ribbed venting along the chest plate. A Cylon rifle with a bayonet tip and sculpted mechanical housing along the barrel is a great complement to the figure.

Commander Adama’s sixth-scale prototype is displayed behind glass, his dark naval uniform featuring ornate braided trim running along the edges of the long coat and matching collar detailing. The head sculpt has a strong Lorne Greene likeness with defined facial lines, gray swept-back hair, and a firm expression, and he’s holding a goblet accessory.

The Cylon Centurion sixth-scale prototype carries a black bodysuit underneath the chrome armor sections, with a tasseled detail hanging from the belt area. The boots have chrome shin guards with pointed tips at the toe, and the rifle’s bayonet extends past the vented barrel shroud with a sharp, tapered blade.
