Hot Toys - MMS 100 - Terminator Salvation - Marcus Wright- spec + hi-res pics

No I didn't. I am one of those who can remember everything no matter how drunk he gets. Plus, I only had two pints!

Seriously lads, how do I change the head? Do I have to pop out that neck connection? I want to start enjoying this guy! (yes I know how that sounds)

Heat it up only way

I have him, but can't remember ever having a head issue Eamon, he's packed away right now, so I can't check for you.



Edit: just googled it to refresh my memory. It's a flat based neck on the headsculpt Eamon. It's supposed to pop off. There is a softer rubber ring inside the neck which is supposed to grab the
nob on the body neck. I think those rings came out of the heads on mine, they were not supposed to but it actually made it easier to attach. You will have to just pull it off first time and hope for the best. Use a hairdryer on it first.

Once you get if off you will understand, I really would not use any type of instrument to wedge it off, if you slip.. bye, bye headsculpt.

hope this helps..

 

[Eamon]

Ah yes! I got it now. The room is a little warmer now so the head popped off without taking the neck piece.

Excellent, thanks guys. I can finally sit down to enjoy this fine figure.

 

[Eamon]

Jesus christ, I think I broke his BD arm at the elbow putting on the jacket. I was super careful too and read the instructions!
It's not floppy or anything and it stays on fine but I know it's broken which is a bit of a bummer!

Talk about a stressful figure!!

 

[a-dev]

Yeah I broke one of the arms too. I'm not too fussed about it though. I put my blue coat Marcus onto a standard Truetype for greater poseability and use the stock body with the BD head sculpt, the leather jacket and extra clothes I bought on ebay. You wouldn't know the arm was broken to look at it and I've got him in a cool hand-to-hand combat pose with the T-600 endoskeleton figure.

Yeah! As the break is so small it doesn't effect the posing or the look but one of the big draws for on this figure was that BD arm.
I loved Six Million Dollar when I was wee fella so I loves me that sorta stuff.

I will try to look past it though!

I broke my BD arm, I used a Lego piece to recreate the elbow, worked great, and it was fairly easy to do. I have renewed interested in this figure, my buddy Dragontron is no longer into 1/6 stuff and he sold me all the gear to make the second Marcus figure. It is all official HT gear but the shirt is a different material than the one I already own and even the holster is a slightly different as well. It doesn't look bad or anything but now I am curious, does HT change materials while in production?

 

[Eamon]

Can you show me your arm fix? I am afraid I cannot look past my broken figure and will not enjoy owning it until he is fixed.

I don't really know if they change materials. You sure you didn't get just a different tshirt from another figure.

 

[highlanderpdx]

Eamon, here are some pics, hope this helps. When I overextended the arm the hinge broke, so I shaved off the old hinge and replaced it with the lego piece. It's not as tight, but at least it is not broken anymore.

 

[Eamon]

Appreciate the photo's but I can't really make out what you did there dude.

Did you replace a part with a lego piece and does him arm bend at the elbows?

 

[highlanderpdx]

Yeah sorry, its all glued together and I can't take it apart to show you. The pictures are not the actual pieces I used but it still will put you on the right track. I had to shape the pieces to fit into the socket and I had to shave down some pieces in the Marcus arm.

 

[Reaktwon]

Awesome photo!

 

[Eamon]

I just won a new MW body on ebay as mien broke 5mins after opening.

I was wondering if anybody knew if I could sell my previous MW body with the broken arm?
It’s not floppy or loose and it can still be posed but you cannot keep the elbow bent all the ways up, though not that you could much before anyways.

Would I get 30 bucks for it I wonder?

Changing up the pose a bit

[Agentofchaos]

Man - everytime i tried it would say they had 0 in stock. Was able to order connor but they cancelled it saying they dont have it stock.

 

[Dawnfreak207]

I got both conner and marcus. 220 for both after my savings

 

[JacktheRipper]

Be prepared for both to be canceled.

 

[Dawnfreak207]

They shipped this morning =/ both

 

[Agentofchaos]

With all the latest trailers of prequels/sequels - Batman, Titans, LOTR Ghost rider etc - I find it really sad that there's no news on a new Terminator movie.
