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

[P.]

cannot do it now, youtube is forbidden/blocked on my work place. plus i don't believe videos, they seem to never show actual colors.
what you need is a side by side comparison, but to have it you must delete the orange goo from one part of BD head and compare it to another part, which you don't need to do as you don't see it. so you're stuck in a paradox

Ok thanks. Let me clarify. I do see some spots but not a large amount that it takes over all the silver colored chrome is what I guess I am trying to say. So I don't know if what I have is the same as others that are complaining and removing them or if I lucked out and received ones that have less. So I was curious where mine stands. If anyone else can watch my vid again and tell me what they think, let me know. Yes what I have doesn't bother me enough to remove them which is why I suspected that mine came with less.

Finally got out my T-1000, I like to change it up or I get bored of the same pose!

i have an idea of what you can compare something yourself: are your chrome parts of DX13 similar to chrome part of DX10?
if not, you have a golden robot like everybody takes out of the box )

Ok new question. Where on the DX10 is there exposed chrome parts? Are you talking about the little piece where you can insert the chip in his head?

 

[P.]

yes, that's the only exposed part there.
and it's covered only with red blood, no orange goo there yet.

Ok I am re-posting some these pics I showed several pages back. The lighting is dark on some but again is this considered a lot of the orange spots?

 

[P.]

metal doesn't stand out, so it looks like common out-of-the-box effect. it would be unexplained if it was the other way cause it would be a first figure without that transparent orange layer.
orange stuff is not placed in spots, it covers metal & part of flesh with one unbroken layer.
check mine, i touched everything including chest & leg:

mine:

* * *

* * *

there is a visible color difference between skin, blood and metal.

it's far less on a fresh figure. the occupit wound was totally orange and red on mine.
that's what you can achieve with a way one of board members discovered. to my shame i forgot who it was. but he really saved the figure.

check the trigger finger on palms. the one that has no flesh & glove on it. mine had greatest amount of bronze there.

Those pictures are amazing! Love that gun too! I gotta get one of those. Is that the one on eBay?

 

[P.]

as i recall, joebizz34 made it himself, right?

 

[a-dev]

Yep, I think he said it was bought on ebay and he made his own modifications.

Also it was The Fiend who first tried the rubbing alcohol to remove the orangey paint.

Oh I didn't know he was referring to my pics. Yes and Thanks. I made it myself using a 1/6 tear gas launcher that was not screen accurate as a base to start with.

well the only gun that could cause wonder was your self-made gun ))

I guess I was so involved with the orange paint discussion that I wasn't paying attention.

Orange Goo Goes Ballistic
Military to use "bullet-busting" shock-absorbent gel to save soldiers’ lives

The British army is preparing to upgrade its standard-issue combat helmet by adding a viscous, orange gel liner designed to lock instantaneously into a solid shield when impacted by a bullet or shrapnel.

yeah it's military ballistic goo used by terminators instead of blood to protect chrome better ))

Well it's not protecting anything that we'll if all it takes is some rubbing alcohol to get it off.
