Just arrived today, the latest addition to my growing collection of Battlestar Galactica's "Old Toasters": 
Pity there is no speaking version of these figures yet, but you know what they say... "Cylons is golden".

How do you know those aren't the accurate colors? It was shot in black and white, it would most likely have been painted to "read" properly in black and white. Is there an extant color photo of the original model? (Remember, the Superman costume George Reeves wore in the early black and white episodes of THE ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN was shades of brown, so it would photograph properly. The green makeup Boris Karloff wore as the Frankenstein monster was so that he would appear properly ashen faced, not because the filmmakers wanted the Monster to be green skinned.)

I thought the Command Centurions were golden and the regulars were silver.

How do you know those aren't the accurate colors? *********** The only example I have seen is in the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. Disney is usually pretty particular to it's props. There are only a few references to certain episodes hidden within the ride that I would not doubt that they consulted someone with the show. The Mystic Seer prop is in the upper right portion of the picture.
