Indeed, really makes me hope the rumor of another TDK figure is true and that it's Wayne sculpted by Kojun, he really captures Bale.

Yeah I heard about that rumor too .............. there is no doubt that Kojun is the go-to man for Bale whereas Yulli is the same to Stallone. I admit up til now I had zero "Salvation" interest but after seeing both these pics and the revised Marcus i'm back on board.

I just need some damn cash

The Connor is a badass figure in my eyes, cool costume, loads of cool gear, a great, determined portrait, just going to be a lot of fun to own.

Not sure really why I want the figs so much-matbe there just so cool. I enjoyed the movie but the figs seem bigger then the movie to me.

With all the money I'm spending on Hot Toys figures right now plus the Star wars 3 3/4" range I briefly entertained the notion of cancelling my T4 figures on account of how forgettable the film is....then I saw the new pics. So keeping those orders. Incredible looking figure.

I find sometimes, collectibles are more appealing than the film itself.

I agree, it's like the figures are what you want the movie to be. The figures have the detail and drama that the movie left you short on.

I second that, especially the 600s. Lame in the movie, but make kick ass figures. Saw them at the Con. Damn! AVP Preds were the same for me. Movie was lame, but figures are cool to have.

Received my John Connor today and it is fantastic - highly detailed, lots of accessories (easy to lose!) and outstanding clothing. The headsculpt, it is the "bad" V1, is a huge improvement of Bales likeness and looks much better in natural daylight than on pictures.

More like Sideshow, at least for me, I'd settle for a 20-25 day notice even, there's just no sign he's even on the horizon, I just hope the improved head is worth the extra wait, I don't doubt it'll be better, but worth the wait it may not be.

I ordered mine from Toys2, and no word or hint that he's shipping soon.

I hope HT goes the extra mile and gives the production heads a paint app that comes extremely close to the proto in order to assuage the initial lingering stigma of the botched head. It's common for HT's (human) production figures to have a noticeably inferior app compared to the official photos or display units (which is understandable and reasonable), but recently it has been more prevalent than before.

Any news about when HT is going to sell John Connor with the revised head?

Well at this point, I'd guess late August.
