The Stargate saga is truly epic. From the silver screen to the television screen, the announcement of each new chapter was a science-fiction event to be commemorated. To mark the debut of Stargate Universe, Syfy produced a promotional SGU hardbook featuring biographies of the main characters, a two-hour premiere episode DVD and – perhaps coolest of all – the cover powers up with working lights.

If you’re interested in going deep behind the scenes of any television production, be sure to check out the photo continuity binder from SG-1 – available now at VIP Fan Auctions. Used to keep sets and positions stable between takes (and eliminate those unfortunate-but-often-funny visual production miscues when editing film), the photos in this binder (see above, right) are actual behind-the-scenes images (with production notes) snapped during the filming of the second-season SG-1 episode “Show and Tell.” This is a one-of-a-kind opportunity for fans of SG-1 – as well as anyone interested in learning more about how a TV series is created.

Naquadah is truly amazing material – an incredibly dense mineral that amplifies energy, it is the principal component of the Stargates themselves, it literally courses through the veins of the Goa’uld, and it powers numerous technologies used by races from the Ancients to the Tok’ra.

VIP Fan Auctions is offering a pair of Naquadah generators (including cables, remote control and carrying case).
