that hair reshape is... nice. fits the 80ths.
though he looks like the actor from "mummy" and "bedazzled" now )))

i'd say "a generic terminator from T1 universe", like the Columbu machine.
Speaking of hair-reshapes though I'm interested to see what TFG does with his. We're all using that same T1 sculpt for our PS bashes but the hair isn't long/full enough. I'd like to see what he comes up with.
was going to use this for my Running Man bash.

Yeah, it comes as seen in the pics. The quality is amazing.
And youre right, they are next to impossible to find in red now, but that doesnt matter to me since I'll be repainting it, and the fairing piece from the BMW bike.

I snipped mine with an xacto knife...but later I found out that snipping was unnecessary. I cant remember how, but you can remove it without snipping anything.
Wallstreet Arnie? What was that from, Raw Deal?
yeah.
a true T2 but in a super stupid movie )))
i liked his face there, a full copy of THE terminator.
p.s. speaking about haircuts - mine has a pilot hair though clearly being an infantry

Good observation. Slightly longer than HTs T1 hair is exactly what Im aiming to do to it with it.
I'm torn on which look from the film to do though...
either this -
or with wind blowing it like this -
Some more bike pics -
It looks really long in the last two pics.
yeah.

This is what I'm talking about. That likeness, it needs a neck that is properly modelled after Arnie's neck, not some generic tree trunk. His neck is distinctly powerful but not 'inhuman' looking. This is why I keep arguing against balljoint heads, you ruin the profile with the separation and actual gaps. And they seem to just not care about what the neck looks like when they're doing it separately. If it were sculpted with the head I feel they'd actually pay more attention to what it should look like.

Go with this^. Its more 'fits all'.
Sorry to hear this man.i think they just need some actual fans in sculpting.This is what I'm talking about.

for example robocop and ED seem to have their guy. terminators still didn't get one (though the current girl tries as hell), and as for aliens and predators... their guy is just not dead yet

Yeah, I couldnt see your pic either, P.
The scale is good, but I think I prefer the slightly larger size of the Tamiya.
One of them will have to go...

Yeah, I agree. I also agree completely with what you said about the necks, and ball jointed heads.

That explains the neck.
When you've got one person working on the head and not just one but 2 people working on the body is it any wonder that the two elements don't work together very well. I mean, aside from the likeness issue and lack of detail, the head and neck on DX10 don't even work well together on a technical level. When you turn the head or tilt it these big ****ing gaps open up.
Kyle Windrix sculpted the head and neck together on his figures for NECA and so far they are the only Arnie figures that seem to have a clue about the importance of his neck to his overall likeness. This is why it surprised me when Kyle came out in favour of balljoint heads. That said though NECA did a good job of it on Dutch, bringing even more shame on HT and what they did to a 'high-end' figure
