Tricia Helfer fans will have something else to look forward to after the season premiere of Battlestar Galactica on the Sci-Fi channel this month. The model-turned-actress will be featured in the February 2007 issue of Playboy Magazine.

Always unable to resist a speedy descent into cheesyville, Playboy printed this preview of the Tricia Helfer feature:

On Battlestar Galactica she’s known as Number Six, but we can’t think of her as anything less than a 10. The leggy former top fashion model makes love to our camera in quite the spread.

At least it’s clear there will be more than an interview.

Update: Scans of the Tricia Helfer Playboy spread have appeared on the Internet.
