Hot Toys - MMS136 - The Terminator: 1/6th scale T800 Collectible Figure (T1)

[DiFabio]

It's not a HUGE deal but packaging is still important and this is their worst design yet. It's all about presentation. I expected reds, neon lights or something. I don't know.

Now instead of being in awe at the sight of the box and art (like I used to) when I crack these suckers open, I'm just going to tear into them like a wild man to obtain my prize (the figures).

And platty, it's not a flap. There aren't any folds or velcro/magnets. The outer box just slips over the main one. The bottom right doesn't have the T-800 text when it is unsheathed. It's just like the ____ty Judgment Day ones.

This is just me, but i collect figures, not boxes, so i couldnt care less about it.

Cant wait to see more pics

It was the only reason to buy dis cocsukyn release

Oh, yeah

Weird that the boxes for the first Terminator figures are much, much cooler. But at the end of the day, the figure is all that matters to me. Hot Toys could ship these in a plain brown shipping box and I wouldn't care. And Hot Toys appears to have knocked this figure out of the ******* park.

My box collection is going to look like crap now!! Oh nos!

Why four pairs of medical scissors?

Did he use 4 pairs to hold open the flesh of his arm?

That would make sense. And I would hope that they would all connect to the arm, which would rock, but you'd think they'd show that in the pic of him working on his arm.

those who get this early, could you mind rubbing your fingers against the studded areas on the jackets and boots and let us know if its glued on tightly thanks!

I kinda like the box...kinda, although it´s really uninspired.
And I´m rather disappointed by the sculpt.
Who again said that it looks really pissed and the sculpt looked reworked?!

Coz it's not a scissors, but the bigest HotToys's specs fail.

It's called
SURGICAL CLAMPS​

You mean hemostats, right?

 

[quiggle]

what is the box supposed to depict is that the Cyberdyne logo?

 

[DiFabio]

Hot Toys' silver ass cheese.

Sure it would have been nice if there were some nice graphics depicting the look of the technoir club but so what if there's not??? As long as the figure rocks who really gives a toss in the long run?
Remember the Resident Evil 4 boxes, Jeez they were interesting, you can either have a black box or a white box.

..i like the box

 

[quiggle]

the T2 boxes were nicer and should complement the T1 line, why didnt they use the same style who knows. the corner cut on the box is weird.

That and also: If the box depicts rather complex graphics it turns the attention from the figure itself.
So on this side of the coin, looks are concentrated to the figure...

 

[DiFabio]

The box sucks, I'm canceling my orders....

BULL____.

While the box does blow extreme metallic ass chunks, I've waited for this figure way too long to get butt hurt over the packaging. I just don't see why T1 and T2 get the short end of the stick. There's something wrong when Salvation looks nicer from the outside and there's no excuse with the current Platoon and Predators box art.

As for the figure itself, oh man, oh man. So tempted to just cough up $280 bucks to HAVE IT NOW.

 

[quiggle]

so let me get this straight, the reason there is a cut in the coner of the box is so it is to make the Cyberdyne logo when you get all the other figures? (Reese, Sarah, etc) is that right their boxes will be cut in different areas?
