Hot Toys - QS002 - The Terminator: 1/4th scale Endoskeleton Collectible Figure

[MrRabba]

Just sent Bill a private message on his facebook begging for an update, I wish they would take 5 minutes away from focusing on the Michael Jordan line to update the status on their other licences.

How do you guys think the electroplating chrome finish will hold up on this figure. I just don't want this figure looking like my first avenger captain Americas shield in a year from now.

It might be worth mentioning to him that its in the interests of maintaining sales they at least indicate that their own Endo is still going ahead - otherwise people will just go and buy the HT version. Not everyone plans to buy both.

Unknown as yet. That worry lies ahead of us.

Any pics of that, please?

I tried to get them level using both of Arnie's heels as reference, but bear in mind the original pic is slightly tilted and that the Endo's left foot may actually rest somewhere between Arnie's feet, so this is not supposed to be a straight-up comparison, just something I throw here for you guys to make of it what you will.

Thanks for the pics.
But basically does it feel/look/is smaller than the EB for you?

On it dude! If he realises that their sales might suffer, perhaps an update will be given. Ill keep an eye out anyway!

Can't tell for sure. If it is smaller, it might not be so much as some are making it out to be. The legs on the pic farthest to the right don't look that different to me, but then maybe I placed the Endo's heel higher than it should be. That's why I leave it to everyone else to decide.

The head does look to be on the small side, though, but maybe it's just too far behind Arnie's.

Does anyone have a really good shot of this guys plasma rifle? I'm curious to the size and paint.
I was thinking of using the plasma rifle from my neca 1/4 scale endo as a second plasma rifle for this
guy but i'm not sure of the paint and size difference.

From what I can see the Neca plasma rifle is alittle different as far as the end of the lower rifle sight is turned opposite of the Hot Toy one.

Pretty good picture, Shoo.
That shows it a bit.

On the downside I just got word that my german seller won't get this til June.


Hm...so May, EB BD it is then...

It's on a stand and it's still smaller.

I actually don't care that it's not the same scale as EB's because it looks fantastic. I should have it this week.

But I find it hard to grasp that anyone could say it's in scale or nearly in scale with the EB? it's on a raised stand, and it's still smaller???!!

This week? Who do you get your figures from? I ordered from TIMCENT and its shipped but theres still no way I'll have it this week I reckon. Maybe not even next week.

Maybe it is smaller. Maybe it's not. Or maybe it is but not by much. ^_^

Here's hoping for you to clear it up for us this week then.

Well I can certainly post pics and measure it when it gets here.

But I don't have the EB Arnie yet. I talked myself out of buying it because I was so uninterested in the DX10 when I got it, i swear I took the thing out of the box once. But.. I'm a huge Endo fan.

I have the EB 1/4 Bats/Joker and I have always thought they were huge, too big I would say.

Hard to know who has the 1/4 scale right, EB or HT.
Anyway..very happy to get this..

Yup, it's saying delivery thurs. EMS normally gets things to me in 3-4 days.

Ah I forgot to take into account different, faster shipping methods.

I bet I will, buddy.

God, you lucky bugger, Rory.

Yep...it is...can´t say anything different.
But I´m pumped on how both will look together...

This is not really directed at you, more in general, but I never understand why the concept of 1/6 or 1/4 is so hard to grasp. Just measure the figure, multiply by 6 (or 4, depending on which scale the figure is), and voilà, you have the height the figure would be in 1:1.

For example, my Enterbay Batman is 47.5 cm tall. I have him standing straight, with his head tilted down slightly, but he would be 47.5 cm if standing completely upright (give or take 0.5 cm). His boot heels, plus sole, are around 1 cm high. So from bottom of the (naked) feet to the top of the cowl he's about 46.5 cm. Mupltiplied with 4, you have 186 cm. According to imdb, Christian Bale is 183 cm tall. Added the height of the cowl, it would probably be around 184 cm. So the height difference between the figure and Christian Bale is basically 2 cm in 1:1, or 0.5 cm in 1/4 scale. That's .2 inches. That's an excusable margin of error, in my opinion of course.

Perfect calculation...

I'm more concerned with how articulated it is. If it's capable of holding a wide stance on top of everything else then it's perfect in my eyes, particularly since I have no plans to buy any of the EB figures--unless their endo is even more impressive.

But there is quite a difference is headsize between the EB BD T2 and this though!
