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

[Terminator_Fan_Game]

Head looks kind of pale and clammy too - I don't know if that was deliberate but it works - just like in the film.

It gives a slight effect of rotting flesh.
Looks great V-Raptor! If you ever decide to sell the eye piece, I would buy one.

I'm so happy that you enjoin it after all, P.!

...until you produce the second head with original skin

The man can dream, aren't he?!

Those customs are absolutely phenomenal P.

the dream is too long, it's time to wake up and complete the quoted and promised

@V-Raptor wow good work man!

a little more detailed/colourful photos than i posted previously.





as you can see, it doesn't have wires coming out of his collar now. i used the Terminator_Fan_Game idea of plugging it to the base: could not hide everything under the jacket as i planned, because Russian nanotechnologies, beloved by president, must have been hidden from other people, and all electronic details are too big.
but i was too lasy to make "custom base" as TFG proposed, so everything is simply wired around the stand
it has a battery nest (to replace the battery easily) and a switcher "on/off".
...and terminator got his power source put inside his ass. that was done to let the figure be disconnected easily. that big black dildo is actually a plug, and the nest for it is under the jacket.

if you're not tired of it, i'll show it with more movie style body wounds in a week or two
the jacket also isn't yet modified to look smaller as the police assault version was.

Nice job P. , is that jacket just a modified T2 one ?

 

[P.]

no, the damaged version has original old HT jacket, and sunglasses version has the saturday toys jacket without lining (finally i found that word), same will be done for HT version.
T2 jacket is too much another. smaller collar, big pocket or something on right side, i don't know what else.

So, essentially, you turned a HT figure into a NECA. NICE!

Very jealous of your BD T1. I have a lot of cool Termy variants but so far nothing to represent that. One day I'm sure I will.

 

[P.]

very very cool!

valuable to hear it from a perfectionist like you

One day I'm sure I will.

i guess thenammagazine above is ready to advice you some neca product for that
p.s. surely you will, i wonder how dreams come true if only to wait for several years. i still remember SilentSurfer turning my long old dream about proper P2 into reality on the shelf.

 

[a-dev]

NECA probably will make one and I will buy it, really wish they continued releasing their Terminators in 12" actually because their parts and accessories would have been useful in HT customs and kitbashes. Well, it might take commissioning a pro-customiser here but I aim to get around to that one day when I have no more preorders and am debt free.

The power source in his arse??? OUCH!!! Awesome custom man.

Good custom work, but the damaged eye looks way out of proportion, twice as big as it should be. Compare the size with the HT's T-800 endoskeleton eye and you'll understand what I'm talking about.

 

[V-Raptor]

The best way so compare proportions is not looking at HT T-800.
All you need here is some shots of the original skull \ face.

 

[a-dev]

Wow he can be pretty critical when he wants to be.

you're right, but not twice (look at the photos above that V-Raptor used when we discussed both heads we made). slightly. technically it is because it has a diameter of used LED plus 0,5 mm layer to block the light and keep it only on the top.
also it has too rude surface, is put too low and looks too bright on night photos. it would be fairly banned and laughed at on any professional figures exposition. and this is not sarcasm somebody with golden hands, and i know such people, would do it 3 times better.



but, as it is my first self-made custom, and because it still hasn't been produced by HT, and because it seems so beautiful to me, and because it cannot be noticed in reality due to actual sizes... i guess i'll learn to deal with all the disadvantages

Wow he can be pretty critical when he wants to be.

but he is right. if only i had all the advices when i did the job but it needs contact IRL
