You know... that is exactly why I have yet to try my hand at Dutch and the crew. No body out there is an Arnold body. But thank God HT is going to make it, now I can get an extra on Ebay and make a decent Conan. :rock

Drago's muscular body is close, but the neck looks like **** so hopefully they'll spend some extra and make an Arnold mold, they did it just for Drago so I'm sure they'd do it for this.
 
I hope they go all out and give us a great Ahnold body... then reuse the hell out of it for Conan and Terminator figures :rock :rock :rock
 
remember the scene in "Twins" where Arnold is amazed to see a giant poster of Stallone in Rambo 3, looks at Stallones bicep, compares to his and laughs?

Stallone was about 180 in the Rambo movies and Arnold was about 230 lbs. So yes, Arnold is that much bigger than Stallone. Hes frickin Mr. Universe!
 
I guarantee when Dutch is released in a few weeks you'll see amazing Conan customs.
 
I think there might be 1 more USCM release to coincide with the upcoming Queen. All the popular characters have already been released except for Bishop.

Gawd, I certainly hope so. If they do another series of Aliens figures Bishop would probably be most wanted by the majority of Aliens freaks, and after that it's kind of a toss up. I'd personally like to have Frost and Dietrich, with Gorman and Burke being second-choices. Since Hot Toys has done lots of pilot figures in their military line, I wouldn't put it past them to make Corporal Ferro, or Pvt. Spunkmeyer, either. It's even possible they could make Newt, now that they'll be making the hobbit-sized bodies for Sideshow's LOTR line. Guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Why didn't I mention Burke? He's dogmeat. They already greased that rat**** sonofab'yich! :D

I'm going to guess that Hot Toys is done with their Marine releases. Although a Bishop or Newt or Gorman would be nice to have, they would only sell to a select few. Maybe exclusives? Just a guess though based on my perceived economics of the situation.
 
Can we expect something similar/ better from Hot Toys?

Well, you can count on the military uniforms, gear and weapons to rock... that's what Hot Toys does best. For Dutch, Dillon, Blaine, and Billy, they might go with the muscle bodies, which look good but have limited articulation. Those could be swapped out with HT's new generation or some other figure body, though. My main concern is the head sculpts, and whether or not Hot Toys will be able to do very accurate portraits, or have to resort to slightly altered ones, like they did with the Colonial Marines from Aliens.
 
I think the main question is how much likeness the headsculpts with have, hopefully better than the Aliens series

Well since they have new sculptors on board since the Aliens series, i'd say yes. Look at the likeness of their military figures to whom they "aren't" supposed to be. IE: Russell Crowe, James Dean, DiCaprio...

Not just that look what Yulli has done with the 2 most recent Stallone Rambo's, simply amazing! They should get her to sculpt everything and just fire everyone else! Kinda like that episode of the Simpsons when Grandpa Simpson is hired on to be the sole writer of Itchy and Scratchy! :lol
