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

[P.]

just googled them... no white/blue spheres for some reason
just watched the video with it. i think i need it, too, just need to find a better color.

 

[P.]

I know most want to do the crouch. I do too. Don't put him in a static mannequin pose though. Giving it a little motion just brings this to life.

i need 2 for standing straight poses!

wanted to wait until the first body arrives before purchasing 3 more, but i think i'll do it now.

as for the crouching pose, i'm sure it can be bent a lot more, like previous body - but i'm also sure it's a limit, and it cannot go into completely movie proper pose.

============

i actually opened this thread to find some links people posted for me to purchase the bodies online, wound rjszar's post and forgot about links. cannot find them neither here nor in General section.
edit: found them. still more expensive than on ebay.

Geez mine is far less crouched then that, gonna see if I can scrunch him up more like yours.

 

[Rambler]

I don't really have a plan to display a naked arnie, but I ordered one of these M34 bodies anyways. Who knows when I will come up for a use for one.

That's a picture of the first body. You have yours oriented differently also. My third and fourth are coming today. Don't know how long they will produce these or if there will be improved versions, but I'm stocking up.

I can't see a need for having more than 2 since they can't be used with anything other than MMS136 and 117 heads.

I'd have loved to use this body for any of my T figures who are showing arm but they're all DX10 and MMS238 heads.

Sure, nothing Terminator, but other Arnie stuff like Conan.

this is a skeleton:

i'm planning on taking the neck post out and replacing it with pegs:

it might work if the body's neck nest fits the peg.
and i already have spare bodies to experiment on.

Interested to see if that works. You could end up wrecking the Phicen flesh as you try to access the skeleton though...then the whole thing becomes moot anyway.

???
i'm going to pull it with pliers until it's out of socket.
it either goes out or it doesn't

oh i got it. accessing the skeleton while putting a peg back.

Opened another M34 today. Tried to replicate the crouch position (all the way down). There's a whole lot of silicone to displace. You can get it there, you just can't keep it there.

The silicone used for these things is surprisingly resilient. As long as you don't go at it like a ravenous maniac it will hold up to some stress and quite a bit of stretching. I was messing around with my old HT Dutch bodies I use on my Krausers, and it was way less fragile than I would have expected. I have to assume the Phicens are at least a bit better in this department, since they're built for much more stressful poses than those old HT muscle bodies.

that Dutch rubber was something else.
you wouldn't believe what it could stand.
the skin on my T/T2 arm cutting figures is made of Dutch skin, which i cut slowly from the inside, piece by piece, to make it super thin (and fit the endoarm inside). imagine the stress it went through - without any damage!

[Alice]

Oh, yeah. I completely forgot you made those.

 

[P.]

yeah imagine doing that with modern HT Robocop joints or Alien jaw.
