Hot Toys - MMS 117 Terminator 2 Model T-800 spec + hi-res pics

[elämän merimies]

No one really cares, since everyones so pumped with the anticipation of this figure, but I had myself kindof a slow day and made a few tweaks to my custom.
Mainly to the body, it stands on a (modified) narrow shoulder TT... Grey shirt still missing + it has the highly inaccurate Blade gloves, but what do you think?

The sculpt is so great. Really hard to do justice to it by photos.

Sadly the metallic m203 grenades are too small, but cant find decent m79 ones anywhere? Even Comedians gas grenades are the same size as these + the color is off...
Running out of ideas where to look. Any suggestions?

elämän merimies: Looks good!

Im starting to get uneasy with the whole deal with Goodshipped, sounds like most of you have got verification of shipment or already received the figure, i havent heard anything from him in weeks, and i sent a message yesterday to him and still no answer. Since this figure is sold out everyware it will be very expensive for me to pick a new one up if Goodshipped screws me.

Yea, have heard these stories of him before... hope you learned your lesson
So glad I was able to find myself a realiable seller in China. Though he gets his stuff a little late, it usually comes with a very reasonable pricetag.
Would like to use SS, but with all the taxes and charges in this country ordering through them would be a pain in the ass.

Sadly I think I will be wrapping up this hobby soon, since I already own all the figures (and a few more) I initially started collecting for...
Still there's always room for improvement. With Hot Toys (DH1) John McClane / (Commando) John Matrix / Batman1989 / Ray Stevenson or Dolph Lundgren Punisher / maybe even a Conan figure, I might be easily persuaded back in...

Thanks for the comment by the way.

I have never had a problem with orders from him, but my dealings have been limited. I wouldn't worry too much though, I still haven't heard anything from Toys2 where I ordered mine either and I know they are pretty reliable

Mine should ship today. I should probably watch T2 to amp up.

 

[MaulFan]

Toys2 hasn't gotten it yet.

 

[barryo]

Thats something I've been considering too...

Probably won't happen though...

Glad to hear that more people haven't received it yet

As far as I've read here, EndoSickness is the only one who's received his T-800 (or even got a shipping notification) from goodshipped, and as Thrustmaster already mentioned, he (EndoSickness) probably got him from the available stock, which is also more expensive than the preorders and comes from a different shipment altogether.
Although I of course would like to have my T-800 rather sooner than later (I expected to have him by now when I ordered a month ago from goodshipped), I'm not worried that he won't arrive, Leo from goodshipped at least seems to be a standup guy, and is also a member here on the forum.

I haven't had any issues with goodshipped (I've only bought small things). They seem on the ball.

Great work on your custom Elaman

 

[Johnny Utah]

Loontentoys e-mailed me yesterday to confirm my address and gave me a shipping number. Finally.

Glad to hear he's on the way!

 

[DinoLast]

Come on UPS Van, I'm still waiting

 

[EndoSickness]

have bought it when it was "in-stock" or was it a pre-order? I've mailed him several times, and he always said to me that the bunch will arrive him end may and he will get back to me, when he has shipped mine.

We still have may.
I ordered the first time and it went perfectly.
Just wait a little.
It´ll go...

 

[MarfMaster]

Decided I didn't want to wait till Monday, so I'm going to pick this bad boy up from CSC today at lunch, along with DX Bats and Aldo. Never had 3 HT figs to open at one time...awesome overload!

 

[vodoun]

Since I haven't heard anything else I'm going to assume not next week, not the week after...maybe the one after that. Toys2 and Sideshow.

edit- dammit I hate when an inconsequential useless post like this winds up being the first post of a new page.

Ah so you bought 2? So how does customs work with Sideshow?

 

[King Darkness]

Awesome, I will have mine on the 1st
