Awesome, David...just great.
With your lighting you always bring out the best in terminator figures, mate.

WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO!??!!?!?!?!

lol Sideshow made me do it man. Had paint defect. It was the second time I had to destroy a figure. Hate doing it, but what can you do. It kind of made me realise that these things are just cheap plastic toys. Kind of makes you wonder if the price is worth it. They do look awesome on display though, especially the endo

Very interesting indeed. I saw a HT 1/4 Endo parts for sale in the classifieds. Was wondering why originally why he parted it out piece for piece.

 

[xpl0sive]

Ah ok. Yeah those are not my parts for sale, but he probably had to do the same thing.

Love these pics

You are terminated.

That would work well in a custom.

 

[DeadLeaves]

Love these pics

Cheers! I'm liking my new camera, I've got a back-log of stuff i need to take pics of.

Great pics everyone. That gave me some motivation.

Fantastic shots dude! Well done, great lighting!

One Sixth Bruce have these in stock and I finally caved and bought it, the only caveat is I have to quit smoking to afford it, buying it makes not smoking a done deal, surviving not smoking however...

Well....

I'll know by the end of the week.

That's the one positive that's come out of my collecting habit! Best of luck with it - think, a 20 a day habit is a Hot Toys figure a month!

A custom of what?

Thanks for that, I've smoked for 23 years, never managed to quit longer then a day.

I haven't had a cigarette since Saturday night, it's been rough but I'm managing, though I've semi-cheated using an e-cig to curb the nicotine cravings.

I've been spending £224 a month on cigs, so even if I keep using e-cigs as a crutch that'll only be £32 a month instead, that's still a Hot Toy month or in this case a 1/4 scale figure.

On figure related news, OSB sent out my tracking info last night, so my Endo should be here tomorrow or Friday.

Great photos David!
Loving the pose to

Thanks !
It was a pain in the a** if you ask me. Joints are not tight enough so the arms couldn't stop falling...

Thanks bud' ! Much appreciated.

Thanks bud' ! Much appreciated.

I still haven't bought this pieces due to fear that something like this...
Loose joints, flaking chrome and risk of breakage when posing.
Is it common with loose joints making it hard for it to keep a pose?
I really like the piece in pictures, but not sure if the quality "in-hand" would satisfy me.

Damaged endo on a base. 1:4 Endoarm display. etc.

 

[Eamon]

Lads, i am going to be opening mine in an hour or so, is there anything I should be of?

 

[DeadLeaves]

Just take your time easing it out of the foam & be careful of the hoses/springs, you can stretch them out of shape if you pull on them - enjoy!

Ah ok, thought you were talking about a custom figure. Yeah, I've been wanting to make a custom base for a while and after I smashed this figure I thought about using some of the parts to add to the base

Funny you mention the 1:4 Endoarm display. After I smashed it, I took a look at the parts and one of the arms broke clean off at the elbow and looked just like the 1:1 Endoarm display lol. I thought, 'heh, this would make a cool little display on it's own'.

 

[Eamon]

Thanks deadlives.

This thing is flippen coooooollll!!!

 

[Eamon]

I will be doing this all day now! It's my birthday and I am having a day off with toys!

You know you gotta a great figure when it scares you!View attachment 66712

Its a beauty mate, I did not like the weathering that was slopped onto the skull on mine, look liked someone had spat all over it so I used Silvo Chrome plate polish to remove it, and tone down them spots all over, also I took the weathering on the shins down a bit.
Looks bloody lovely now, soooo shiny

Got mine today too, sorry for the crap pics the sun has left Scotland for the day. (if not the year lol)

I find this guys ten times better in hand then any single picture can take, as he doesn't look so pin headed in person. It feels a bit delicate but nowhere near as fragile as I was afraid it would be, the joints are tight enough on mine and the T2 gun is in the box where it belongs.

I was on the fence long ago when it came out, but so glad I jumped off it and finally found the time to pick this up, also glad I've managed to stop smoking cigarettes, today every meal was really that much better tasting, and this Endo's just the icing on the cake.
