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

[Valfar]

First week of January is the official word.

Ahhh boo..yea..i heard this before, was hoping maybe a update to arrive late this week..hate having to pick up figures during a work week..well, don't hate it but, yea being off and being able to relax and enjoy my purchase would be a hell of a lot better.

I really hope the remake future Sgt. Kyle Reese with Michael Biehns likeness and Police shootout T-800. And a 1984 Kyle Reese would be a dream come true

Some sort of indication at the Xmas show that they aren't going to suddenly drop Terminator now that they've got a few new hugely popular licenses would have been nice. I'm just sick of the doubt.

Too right, my friend.
I will be PISSED if HTs leave the T1 line as is.
The fact is, we NEED a Kyle Reese figure.
If HTs dont make it happen, theyre idiots.

Hmmm, he has reappeared on Toys2 but hes now another $10 dearer. Sincerely hope I'm getting the old price, it was already pretty expensive as it was.

 

[Valfar]

Yea $189.99 for this figure is a bit ____ed up if you ask me, still must own this figure.

Its been overpriced from the start if you ask me. This should cost about the same amount as the T2 t-800 figure did.

I guess maybe it had something to do with the higher price of royalties they had to pay to get the T1 licence...no?.

 

[a-dev]

Probably that together with a 'because we can' mentality.

 

[Tick-Tock]

Damn. And he's upped the price of the T2 Arnold, too. Damn! Majorly weak sauce.

They always honor the lowest price if they raise it later for orders placed before the raise, but if they drop the price they also honor that for orders place before. They're very good to customers.

I think a big part is the lack of T1 merchandise, they have the power to raise the price and say hey, what els are you going to buy. T2 has been heavily marketed over the years, people have options.

[Ash Housewares]

Except the joints and such show up too much. It will look rubbish.

Agreed. And now that you mention it, Im pretty sure this is what Maulfan has in mind.

Anyone know about ebay seller 'chaiyozone'?
They have listed the T800 at $176.99 US.
Seems to be real cheap, since SS has it at $194.99 and they all seem to be selling just above $200+
Just wandering if theres a catch before i jump in and buy one. Is there a way to spot HT fakes?
