And make no mistake people - several things about the New BSG have changed, but several Mormon messages remain.
The 12 models are a Mormon reference to the 12 colonies of man, as were the 12 planets, including Caprica. I believe the mini-series/show are making the 12 models of Cylon into the 12 personalities of man, as I have not seen a single one of the Cylons have the same type of personality.
Good observation. And I believe that's why the Cylons only built 12 human models. My reasoning behind why they stopped there is because they don't just want to keep building more human models and populate that way. That would make them machines. In order to be truly human, they have to populate through reproduction.
On a side note, I wonder what Sharon's and Helo's baby will grow up to look like. Certainly not like any of the 12 human models.

This was the doctor on Caprica at the baby farm. Starbuck killed him. Here's his photo.Quote:

Yeah, I had to have missed that episode. Hey, at least I got most of them right!
I really do wonder what the "half-Cylon" baby is going to look like too... that side story alone will make for some good TV!
I honestly can't wait for October!

They look just like any regular human ... except for the 'lighter - darker' rheostat dial on the side of the neck.
