DX does look young in some ways, but he has receding hairline and the facial shape looks more like T2 to me.
I think the little holes would be a great solution (Rainman does this), if I had the nerve to try it at the risk of potentially messing up the sculpt somehow. Looks like a-dev may have just trimmed his?
Yeah I just cut the ends off. I use a little bit of bluetack to help keep them on though
Thanks for the input!
Oh, I managed to step on the pair that DEATHASYLUM sold me. Was able to glue them back together well enough thankfully, but a macro photo might reveal where they were broken.

I heated the arms up and just pressed them around his head
Here's mine so far, just waiting on the trousers. It's got the DX10 jacket on too and a Modified FAL instead of a AR-18

He's not wearing any pants? Why would you deprive us of that hilarious image!?
Very nice pic Frank. I tried that and it didn't look good, so I just snipped the corners off and I'm pretty happy with it now.
On another note, I'm noticing that the DX-10 jacket collar is stitched on. If you cut the stitch will the jacket look right when the collar is "popped," or is it not worth doing? I'm guessing some other folks have used other jackets, so I'm not sure if the nice looking ones are DX-10s or not.

Cool Pic Frank!
Kara, I actually decided I didn't like the DX10 jacket for PS purposes. The underside of the collar isn't leather and I didn't really want that showing. I took the MMS02 jacket from one of my other bashes.

Yeah, I noticed that. I'm just curious if it will be the right length or not.
I went ahead and cut the threads there. I might do the same for the side collar. . .here are some pics of mine so far. Will take some more when I get the updated head!

Cheers fellas
Looking good Kara! I also cut the stitching that was holding the collar down in all places. At first I just cut the back stitch but it still didn't look right so I cut the 2 holding the front lapels down.
I too don't like the fabric under the collar, not only does it look wrong i would imagine if it were leather also it would hold it's shape better.
Overall it looks better but the thing now is the left side of the jacket sticks up and out more due to the zip and isn't as flush to the jacket as it was
The price you pay for using the DX10 jacket

Is the zipper non-functional? It seems like it should zip up, but I couldn't get it to catch.
Its looking good Kara. Yeah I don't think the zipper works. I put the spare DX10 coat onto the less important kitbash that I took the MMS02 jacket from and couldn't get the zipper to catch either. Annoying because that particular kitbash requires a zipped up coat.

Well, I also decided to get the die-cast Minichamps bike! The quality and the details on this bike are amazing!! Much finer details than the Tamiya. It looks incredible in person. My crappy pics do it no justice.
That looks cool. And that is preassembled and painted I presume? Also presumably you couldn't find one in red?

Am I now the only chump that will have no PS Terminator in my collection? 
Loving all the work on the custom PS T-800's.

I have the shotty from the MMS02 but it has the stock on it still. Did you guys just just snip it off?
I'm guessing there's a plastic pole running through the gun so I could effectively just snip either side
