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

[The Skull]

Buying V1 at $300 is better than getting a DX?

Well IMO, the headsculpt is the only thing wrong about the DX right?

As for the missing V1 accessories (T, rose box, endo arm and head), DarthT can get them off the board/ebay in the same cash he would use for a cyberdyne bash.

He can round up everything (V1 acc. and the DX) in like $300-320, tons of bids on ebay for the accessories of V1.

And the DX has real leather clothing, so that's an added bonus.

Not happy with the head someone will at least buy it for $45.

So there you go....

(As for the V1 head I might be able to help him get it in like $55-60 odd shipped.)

The head sculpt is the most important part right? But I argee that getting the dx at this point is the better value. The one thing to concider is that the dx10 has a new body so the endo arm may not fit on it as well so I don't suggest getting it until you know it will work. The leather coat and accessories are better with the dx, but as far as I can tell at this point the mms117 is a more soild figure. I will be picking up the dx10 myself but I don't expect it to top the orginal.

I was talking about V1 as in T1, considering this is the T1 thread. I agree that the T2 DX is a better value than T2 V1, even though I personally prefer the T2 V1 sculpt.

Me too, mms117>dx10 imo, I just got mixed up, but t1 is the best of them all.

No, wait I was wrong. They switched to talking about the T2 figure in the T1 forum. I'm confused!!!

^^ That's what I was going for. I wish I could take better pics to really show it off. I'll try again tomorrow.

 

[The Skull]

Thats what he looked like after he crashed the police car, looks great I think this is the first custom to have that look, cool idea

 

[TheFiend]

^^ Thank you very much for the compliment but I don't think I'm the first one to do this.

I keep getting the funny feeling that Hot toys is going to put one out eventually and I’ll want it, then this one will be money tied up. I could be wrong, but it's one of the things that are making me lose interested in it. I guess it's also like once you've accomplished something you feel like you want to move onto something else.

They are doing it in 1:4 scale, not sure if we will get the 1:6 version though. I really would prefer it in 1:6 myself, I'm not into 1:4 scale cause I'm not into statues, I feel that even though they are making these 1:4 figures articulated they are just to big and clumsey. Hot toys are figures are called high end collectibles, but in the end there high end action figures and 1:4 does not translate well into an action figure imo.

My new detolf setup:

 

[The Skull]

Looks nice Theres a whole lot of awesome on that shelf Reminds me that I never opened my t-1000 yet, I should get to it sometime this year

 

[TheFiend]

Nice set up Kara! I like how the T1 is in front and in charge. I have mine with no accessories, just fists to the side, lookin dead ahead. The figure is just total bad ass.
