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

OneSixthKit ships free to all countries I do believe. They've already shipped mine to the US.

 

[P.]

in that case it means 2 body for 90 each=180 from OneSixthKit or $71*2=142 + $37 shipping = 179 from KG Hobby for me.
and KGH will charge me in Hong Kong dollars i believe, which will mean money lost in converting.
so i need to know what is TNS that oberfrog mentioned. if they sell for $80 with free shipping, it will be $20 less.
found it, but i don't see that body there.

Do you pay in USD? Otherwise it should be the other way around, more conversions more money lost and you would benefit from skipping the rubel to US dollar conversion and go directly to HK dollar?

Always interesting to find more HK vendors. I didn't know there was a less tanned version of the KP02A until I saw it there now.

i made an USD account and connected it to paypal. this way i can convert roubles to dollars when i see the best converting course in my bank and not when i want to buy something. it helps more often than it causes problems like different currency prices.
at least i think so.

funny that's what people here believe. well they believe everything they're told to.

I couldn't stop laughing when I saw the pic, I have seen a few variants but that's my favorite one.

We are in for a couple of very interesting years before it's time to elect Medvedev again.

 

[P.]

oh no, M. is not a favourite anymore, he's always trown to public to say stupid/unpopular things. some people actually feel pity for him today, he's like an unloved child.

Russian politics in a Terminator thread. Careful, guys. You're getting dangerously close to comics crap here.

 

[P.]

wait, but he's wearing a german cap, soviet caps had a different shape... why does it have a soviet symbol instead of a reich eagle?

i guess comics turn everything into crap, not only aliens into chicken-sausage hybrids and predators into jajuja.

I'm sure the people will plead with Putin to change the law so he can stay for another two terms like they did with Chavez in Venezuela.

We once had the same prime minister for 26 years straight here so we have most countries beat in that regard.

Same reason all (most really) 80's movies had all Soviet characters speak with a german accent. Makes no sense whatsoever, but amusing and annoying at the same time.

indeed...let's get back to the real matter at heart here.....how to make the best naked arnold T-800 figure!

I'm hoping that the legs on the new M34 look better in person. Should have mine soon. It's a shame that proportionally, the legs on the original M30 look better. Didn't stop me from ordering a half dozen though.

Hmm..head incompatibility probably rules out any T2 usage (I use DX10 heads) but it might still be good for my eye surgery kitbash....

edit - wait, no. MMS238 head. And I knew that before, just had a brain leak tonight...

Here's an unboxing video. Looks pretty impressive to me.

From the dedicated thread in the general action figure section. Genisys head looks awful on it.

But I guess if it really works for the MMS136 head I might get a second one to use with the single MMS117 head I have left. I'll put the T2 in the crouched arrival position and T1 standing up (as his face is slightly easier to look at).

nice idea!
and i have an already broken DX10 head (i think so..........), so i'll modify it.

Still waiting on the body from KG to be delivered, will stick the 136 head on it. Hope you can pose the body in this pose, after The Terminator goes through the TDE.

You can pose these bodies just about any way you want. They move almost effortlessly and then stay without any problems.

 

[P.]

this pose was unachievable with previous muscle body. the knee never goes that high, because chest/shoulder are in the way.
but a pretty close one can be done.

 

[shells075]

Got the body, just quickly set the fig up in the pose we all want to pull off. The ankle joint is a bit of an issue but its the best option we got at the moment for our Naked Arnie fig.

Can pull of the pose with no problem.
