Thanks guys.



Yeah, it's not even really about the eyes themselves, just those damn eye lids like a-dev mentioned. It just looks so unnatural. Regular, painted eyes are the way to go.

But that's not my biggest gripe about PERS. I just hate how hollow the heads are now, especially when they don't have a sculpted neck. I mean, think about it, grip the sculpt too hard and it could easily crack inside couldn't it? It's not solid at all. You got a small ball joint on the bottom, right next to the system itself, a removable hair plate, a long lever that takes up half the head, a magnet to hold the said plate, the PERS itself and then a decent sized opening at the top of the head. There's just alot of things that could go wrong with the head alone.

Way too gimmicky for such a small scale. I don't know how you guys approached the headsculpt when you popped it off of the bandolier but I held on by the figure's temple sides when I took it off. I'm always afraid the hair/head plate is going to smash up against the lever and break the **** out of it.




Oh and that piece of foam under the chin is a nice touch so it doesn't rub the finish off the neck. I hadn't noticed that that was there.

I really enjoy the PERS on this guy. I think its freaking cool to move the eyes around on this one and it doesn't look that bad to me. Maybe I need to get my eyes checked cause I like it. I think HT redeemed themselves with PERS with Batman89, Joker89, Luke, & now Arnie. I must say it looks a hell of a lot better than my Indy one with the manliner. Not sure what they were thinking with Ford.

I agree with what your saying, I prefer soild sculpts myself. As far as how I put on the baidolier I did not remove the head at all, I just raised one arm and slid it over, its really rather easy to do and avoids removing the head altogether.

Yeah I tried raising his arm but couldn't get it over. It kept rubbing against the hair.

I opened up the booklet and saw that the instructions state to pop his head off, so I just did that.

If the sculpt accepts the PERS tech well, then it is not so bad.

This DX10 looks great with PERS i think but, it could've been better like the DX08, the DX13 sculpt accepts the PERS tech more naturally then DX10 due to the facial expression sculpted on that figure.

I do think the eyes look more life-like on this then the MMS T-800 though,especially the detailing on the eyeball.

That's a really great photo of this figure, buddy. Very complementing.

When I was doing my Pescadero shoot that started peeling off with all the head-turning I was doing. I started seeing this residue on the neck, didn't know what the hell it was - DX02 oil-leak again or something - I'd rub it off (lol) and then I'd see it back again. It was that foam piece. I removed it.

This is my first Terminator. I got on board too late to get the first T2 release, but I'm super happy with this one. Just bought it yesterday, and figured I'd share a few pics:

It only looks better on the DX13 because you're looking at pics of the prototype.

hi guys
wanted to share my experience in weathering leather clothes of this figure:
DO NOT try anything - sandpaper, acid, white spirit - anything!
better leave the clothes look like blue oyster club uniform, as they are in the box. it's better than ruining them
3 new sets costed like a complete new figure.

I wish Hot Toys would just do a line of character/actor heads to go along with their new TT bodies so everyone could just customize their own figures of a particular actor. I'm sure buying the likeness rights from just Arnold, Bruce Willis, or even Sly, to make a generic expression face of them for people to do whatever they wanted with would be cheaper than having to buy Arnolds, Whoever owns Terminator (for example) and who knows how many other people just to do one Terminator figure. Especially when people go on the secondary market now just to buy the head to make a different character that has nothing to do with Terminator.

One day they may, if prices continue to climb to the point no one can afford their figures because of all the mark ups for all the licenses, they got the” HEAD PLAY” route. They’re starting to get pretty good over there.
