And I'm on my 4th viewing of T2 in the last couple weeks 
Oh, I'll definitely watch it before the arrival, and probably the day he arrives . I've listened to the score countless times lately. Hell, when the proto debuted, I got so excited I bought the Dwight Yoakham song from the bar scene on iTunes
. I've listened to the score countless times lately. Hell, when the proto debuted, I got so excited I bought the Dwight Yoakham song from the bar scene on iTunes Its considered cool to be like that because thats how most people are. Its easy to belittle things that are out of the norm because chances are you'll only be offending one person as opposed to everyone around you. Its the same with everything. Trust me collecting is far from my only eccentricity 
Anyways a question, do most of you consider this to be the best HT fig yet? Or just your favorite? Or neither? I'd kinda look at it as at least potentially my favorite, but probably not the best they've done from an engineering standpoint, pretty much any Endo has a lot more intricacy. But then theres that HS

I think a lot of it has to do what you are using to judge the quality of the figure. If you are going by engineering, I'd definitely go with the any of the robots, or the ironman figs. But for a collectible that does justice to one of the greatest movies made in the last twenty years, this figure is up there. While the complexity of the figure is important, it doesn't matter to me if I don't care about the license. I have passed up on many many figures just because I'm not that interested in the movie, even though the figures kick ass (Terminator Salvation being a prime example).

Edited my post above - for me, property comes first, then complexity of figure.
For anybody that has also ordered from goodshipped, here's the reply I got today:
"[...] we (dealer) will receive our bulk batch (wholesales order) in late May 2010, hopefully. "
Was hoping I'd get him in the next few weeks, looks like it will become beginning of June at the earliest till he's here.

Similar to Django, my favorite figures are always from licenses that I best like. Even though this T-800 looks to be as good a likeness as HT has done, he'll probably never be one of my favorite figures since I just don't care as much for the movie as I do for, say, T1, Aliens, Predator, or even Dark Knight.
Though I must say, I was never a huge fan of the Blade movies, but that figure has blown me away. Still not one of my favorites, though, for the above reason.

Yup, in terms of construction, while the new body is a bit innovative and the overall figure looks great, for the most part, this figure looks like a run of the mill Hot Toys figure today, it doesn't really demonstrate and significant engineering feets or problem solving like Iron Mans, or one of my favorite feats to date, Davy Jones.
As far as representing the character and looking accurrate, this is definitely one of HT's better figures in my book, but, in the past year, I'd say most of their figures have been some of their best work, Blade, Wolverine, Aldo, Comedian, those all look fantastic and have strong likenesses and quality costuming.

What about Alterego comics??
I am so screwed and loving it
two more weeks is late May
I really want to grab another one cheap in HK but suspect that by the time I get there TH is sold out again
Same, I believe they'll be getting stock from Sideshow who's expecting late May.
Toys2 - Late May
Sideshow - May 26th
I think it's safe to say, it'll hit everywhere outside of the HK around the end of this month.

The wait for this thing is just nuts now. Too long for a big fan like myself.
The wait was too long 2 weeks ago

I just got my Leonidas on Monday, which I had pre-ordered with my T-800. I'm really impressed by Leo(no problems with him) but Arnold looks Loads better IMO. Can't fricken wait!!!!!!!
