I only keep Panasonic Eneloops batteries inside my collectibles. I remove all alkalines

CERTAINS COMMENTAIRES...
Une note sur les yeux LED rouges...
Toutes les versions resteront allumées, à l'exception des variantes HCG... elles s'allumeront pendant la lecture de la musique du terminateur, puis s'éteindront (dure environ 5 à 7 secondes).
Notez que la version de combat HCG a une finition plus sale que celle du SSC et que les dents sont également beaucoup plus sales.

Quelques photos - (N'hésitez pas à ajouter vos propres photos ! Plus on est de fous, plus on est de fous)

D'AILLEURS-
quelqu'un a-t-il des photos de la version TIMELESS COLLECTIBLES ??

Salut
J'ai la version HCG Battle endommagée mais la peinture fait des cloches et gonfle par endroit. Des idées pour réparer ?

Is there a translator function for the above reply?

This is another bust I got my hands on.. looks like the nameplate and eyes have been modified

I'm not sure what you are asking, but from the pictures it looks like the paint under the chrome finish has lifted. From my understanding there is no easy way to fix that. You would have to strip the whole thing and re-chrome it.

Just consider it extra battle damage and instead of repairing it... you could spray paint scorch marks in that area, as if it has been shot in the face.

Hello all. I'm new and hoping you guys can help. I just picked up a HCG T800 Endoskull and it's amazing. However I'm puzzled by the dedication to Stan Winston on the bottom of the base. I thought these Endoskulls were made and sold a few years before Stan passed away.

This was asked before here but to no reply, didn't want to necro-quote

I guess I'm just concerned if my piece is authentic. It did not come with the original box. The cpu I purchased seperately so ignore that. Thanks

edit: Can someone clarify if Hollywood Collectibles Group and Hollywood Collector's Gallery are the same or entirely different companies???

This is my own HCG Endo bust which I got more than a decade ago, looks like yours but no memory text:

 

[Darth_Draig]

hey jkno, yeah they look the same except for the tribute to Stan. I know the Sideshow bust has been heavily recast over the years but I'm not aware of the HCG being recast so I'l assume mine is ok. It certainly looks amazing. My version has no blue led and the sound has no music, just a siren then Future War sound effects.

I wanted a Sideshow bust when they first came out but years later, prices even for the Combat Veteran has gone sky high. I actually prefer the more screen accurate look of the HCG so I'm very happy with it.

I've also learned that HCG and HCG are different companies ha

Hey ya'll, early days in the hobby for me, so slowly figuring it all out. I recently purchased a 3D printed endoskull with light-up eyes from etsy. Obviously not on par with some of the metal beauties in this thread, but after applying some chrome paint via airbrush, I managed to get it looking somewhat metallic. I recently wall mounted it in the corner of my office where I'm slowly putting together a little Termiantor collection. Great fun!

 

[Mana]

Anyone familiar with this? Happen to saw this on Taobao. Seems like a recast with some modification? No buck tooth issue like the regular recast. Review photos looks good as well.

I see you have your answer about Hollywood Collectibles Group and Hollywood Collector's Gallery, just to reiterate yes two different companies, Hollywood Collector's Gallery being a Japanese company and Hollywood Collectibles Group a US based company I believe who produced other Terminator collectibles.

Hollywood Collector's Gallery produced 2 variants of the life size bust, Clean one and Battle damaged one. Push of a button made some sounds, music theme and red eyes lit up. No “in memory of Stan Winston” on either one of mines.

There is another version of this bust, which played a clearer music theme sounds, red led eyes, and 2 blue LED lights shine upwards adding an ominous glow to the skull, with slight variation on the front logo title plate. This one was done by Cinemaquette.

Yeah mine must be earliest type by HCG, the sound matches and it has no blue leds. I'm still puzzled by the tribute to Stan though. I recently bought a Sideshow Endo Arm also. I was surprised by how tall the piece is with the base, it towers over the Endoskull bust.

Knowing the language helps, for starters

Looks class but absolutely no chance i can search for it on that site.

It's on eBay, too. It's by Instant Toys, which are doing the Enterbay KOs. It looks high class, but there are no reviews on it.
