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

[Terminator_Fan_Game]

The T-700 (the figure, at least) seems to have a skinnier, longer face than the T-800. The overall build looks slimmed down too, while the T-800 is bigger and buffer.

Seems I was wrong

EDIT -

Was that a comparison between the HTs T-700 and HTs T-800?
Or the Aoshima T-800?

 

[Reaktwon]

They are the same except for the rough texture and colour on the T-700.

 

[Rzeznikk]

The reason I'm curious is because if I get an Endo, it would be the cheaper T-700. Not going to spend $500 for the T-800 on eBay

I'm not a big stickler about screen accuracy. An Endo is an Endo to me.

But I'd like it to resemble the original T1 end version the best I can. Rough texture doesn't bother me...the color might. Which I could repaint...

So with a repaint, would the T-700 pass for the T-800 for the untrained eye? (like non Terminator OCD people )

I don't see why not. If you wouldn't be bothered by the rougher texture go for it. And post pics of what it turns out like, I'm sure people would be curious.

I remember people talking about trying to eliminate the sandpaper texture on the T-700 when it was first coming out but I don't know what came of that or if anyone attempted it at all....

You'll love the T-700 then. I always thought that a shiny chrome T-800 looked weird, because they looked like they just come off the assembly line.

You'll need to track down some weapons for the T-700 as he doesn't come with anything other than a yellow stand that's supposed to look like the industrial flooring in the Skynet factory

I don't have a T-700 but it looks exactly the same as the T-800 apart from its rough surface texture and darker colour.

I have both, and they are exactly the same except for the texture and color as mentioned.

Reaktwon,

That sure is a lot of work and rules to follow to get a full automatic rifle pre-May 19, 1986.

It's much easier to get a M1A1 Abrams tank.

Sad but true.

Cool beans then :yess

I won't need any weapons either, since I want to display him like from the end of T1, and he didn't have any weapons at that point. So I'm good there.

Thanks guys, you've been most helpful!

If you want to be a bit more specific to T1 study the film for the broken/warped leg piston that causes the endo to limp. I mean since you'd be customising the T-700 anyway....

 

[Reaktwon]

I thought the T1 endo looked different from the T2 version? Feet and pistons etc.

The T-700 won't disappoint!

Believe it or not I'm not sure about that. I've never really tried to compare them.

I'd have to look in the "Winston Effect" but they are different indeed.

 

[MaulFan]

I'm sure like anything, there were changes because of improvements in technology, the way the prop was used, things like that.

 

[a-dev]

If anyone cares to do the work for me I'd welcome a rundown of the differences, pic comparisons etc
