Hot Toys - DX13 - T2: T-800 (Battle-Damaged Version) 1/6-scale Collectible Figure

[EVILFACE]

I'm back to routinely looking at page 1 of this thread....like the old days. Y'know, back when this figure was first shown. The wait is painful.

I remember being amazed when it showed up that first night.

Still am.

 

[Voorhees27]

Yeah can't wait too.

 

[drjedisith]

i really wish hot toys would show something and be ready to ship it out 3-5 months instead of 1-2 yrs! lol

I was probably not long asleep when it first showed up and had to go through a ****load of pages by the time I logged on. I remember seeing the thread and clicking on it assuming it was just the DX10 thread only to be totally surprised by the first pic.

EB has a fancier sculpt but there isn't anywhere near as much fun to be had with that figure as there will be with this mofo.

Don sweat brother, many of us in same boat. I sacrificed for years and paid double for some of the figures i had left past 2 years. I say buy at twice the cost if you need to when you have money, else avoid at even half the cost. Next year is anticipated tight for me and i know what it feels like to let go of something good.

Hey, cheers for the positive words mate.

If it comes to getting something for twice the price down the track though - it ain't happening.

I'd rather tough it out & get it early.. if at all possible.

I will not believe that you won't have this figure at some point.

Well.. as much as it pains me to mention it.. I'm gonna pass on this figure for now.

The budget's strapped, & as well as other things on the life list that need attention right now, I'm happy to devote my money to the other figures on my list, that are due next year & beyond; like West Batman, Crow, Dr Shaw & RoboMurphy.

Ah well..

Bummer. But I hear ya about priorities.

As far as PO's, this is it. Maybe the 66 set next year. Actually I like only having one thing on PO.

There hasn't been much that has gotten me truly excited lately. I wish someone would pick up a 1/6 license for Game of Thrones. That would be the ultimate for me.

Yeah, I'm in the same boat as Vintij. I miss the days of picking stuff up for giggles. Now I'm hard pressed to afford the stuff I'd really like. When the SS exclusive sold out I told myself I wouldn't be picking this up at all, since the exc. head was what I'd want to stick on the T-1000 figure.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

My golden period has been 2010 - 2012. I got a bunch of must haves in that period, so it just worked out well that way.

Now..

At least there are substantial gaps between releases as far as the other must haves on my list. That said though, I'm not sure if I can drop $340 on the DX13 between now & early next year - & POing things doesn't work for me these days either.

It's going to be interesting anyway..

 

[xpl0sive]

For any Aussies that may be interested, I'm probably going to sell my Exclusive once it comes in. I MAY change my mind once I see in-hand pics, but if the final product looks like what we've seen so far in pics then I'll be letting it go.

 

[a-dev]

Well there's inevitably going to be both great and terrible in-hand pics. It'll come down to if you think you can get your figure looking like it does in the 'great' pics.

Don't be surprised if they tweak the sculpt. The BD head needs revision for sure.

If they do I'm sure we can thank Enterbay for it. When a film has been out for over 20 years and there's an abundance of referance material available there's no reason they couldn't have done it right to begin with. They didn't consider total accuracy to be important, simple as that.

So I think any changes they make on the prototype, if they have happened, will be because they saw the hugely positive reaction to Enterbay's sculpt. They'd be thinking ''uhhh, $h!t, these fans might actually be prefer accuracy over our fancy artistic license''.

 

[BadMuthaDude]

For me, this is the figure I cancel other figures for. I can understand when it's the other way around too. You gotta do what you need to in order to get your must haves and keep your budget balanced.

 

[a-dev]

The only figure I wouldn't cancel for this is my other DX13s.

 

[Johnny Utah]

NECA just showed another teaser for their FB Pt. 2 Rambo. That's another one that would get me hyped if it turned out to be the long gestating DX.

I will be surprised if they tweak the head sculpt. Pleasantly surprised! ... I doubt though.
