<\/p>\n#20 - Cannon Centurion Cylon\/Lieutenant Boomer<\/h3>\n

Lieutenant Boomer is secretly a Cylon - 8-year-old-spoiler warning! ![](\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/yo\/art\/bsgmmcy06.jpg\" "\\"Cannon")
When Series 2 of the Battlestar Galactica<\/i> Minimates came out (on August 22, 2007<\/a>), it took a cue from Series 1<\/a> by including a Cylon figure that had already been available twice before. This is the \"Cannon Centurion Cylon,\" which means he has the usual Minimate body and all the various Cylon add-ons - feet, waist, torso and head cap - plus new hands that have the fingers retracted to create, well, cannons! What did you expect from the Cannon Centurion? Lollipops? For a full review of him (and all the other Cylons) see here<\/a>. It's a good-looking figure, and even if you already bought it the two previous times it was released, aren't the Cylons a perfect choice for army-building?<\/p>\n![](\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/bsgmmccltb1.jpg\" "\\"Lieutenant")
She's a sleeper agent, though, so she didn't know she was a Cylon (unlike the other major copy of her on the show, \"Athena,\" who knew herself to be a Cylon the whole time). On the original show the character named Boomer was a black man, not a Korean woman, but who cares about that? She has the same body as Starbuck<\/a> (which is funny, since Grace Park was one of the two finalists for the role of Kara Thrace - obviously, she lost out to Katee Sackhoff) and Apollo<\/a>, because Art Asylum had to get the most out of this complicated Viper Pilot uniform mold. She's got the same pistol, holster and flight helmet that is just a little bit too tight on her head. The brown ponytail is a new piece, for when you don't want her helmet on.<\/p>\n
