Definitely an unmodded HT head this time. The head on the previous one was the big selling point I expect, especially for whoever ended up paying over $150 for it. But this one has no appeal at all really.
 
Nowt else to do but post a few pics. This is with the headsculpt I got from Commando - blood removed, endo eye - also I reversed the grey vest because the bullet wounds on his chest were innaccurate and crappy looking. I'll redo the bullet wounds or not depending on what HT eventually does with the official figure. Meantime he represents the police shootout before he gets shot by anyone.

Due to the cool lighting my Pescadero elevator has become my default photo stage.

Hey man those are awesome pics. How did you create the elevator environment?

Well, its in 2 sections - the smaller section with the door and the control panels was built by Maxx Replicas, mainly out of wood. I built the rest of the elevator using his work as a guide. I also made a couple of mods to his section to keep everything consistent with the silver/chrome card for the wall panels that I found (which didn't quite match his original work). The ceiling I built in its entirety myself, quite proud of that :D I had carpentry and light-fitting assistance from my brother.

Very nicely done. :clap

A lot of people have custom police shoot out T-800 figures but that elevator environment is what makes yours very unique looking overall. I would love to display the one I received from Commando with the eye lit up in all it's glory in that setting. Awesome!! If you were able to replicate that, you could make some nice cash on here. That would look insanly good displaying the T2 figure with Sarah Connor in there or having the T-1000 in there with the split head.

As you can see its more than just the elevator. I'm not sure I could even reproduce the elevator part alone.
 
Something tells me that when Hot Toys finally does decide to make the 1/6 scale T-800 PS version, it's not gonna look as good as yours. Just a hunch. Nice pics in the elevator & the T2 sequence is awesome.
 
im calling BS on that. I kept skimming across it and it was at about £170 the last time i checked before it ended
 
You'd be surprised what happens in the last minute :)
Ive been in the ebay game 10 years and ive sold a lot of stuff. Which is why my BS detector is going off in this :-/ Seller seems like a reliable guy good feedback and such but the thing i dont even think was worth £170 when i was skipping past it let alone somebody else willing to pay £330 more. Its also a nice round number. You could buy a t1 t-800 a t2 t-800 now the price is dropping and a DX 10+ about £50 change for the price whoever it is paid. And its a very bare bones figure.

Well good luck on him i hope its legit on his behalf. Though whoever the bunch of guys are who bid it up that high are i want to know them so i can spend a fraction of the cost making a similar figure and flipping it on for hundreds more
