Hot Toys T-600 & T-700

Again for those who just joined. The T-700s were part of the original story, and the factory scene at the end is full of the T-700s as designed by Legacy studios. However, the dialogue was changed to refer to everything that isn't a 600 as an 800. Hence, in the movie, every endo that this figure is based on is now an 800.
So, really, this IS the T-800 endo in the Salvation timeline. There really aren't any T-700s except that toy companies weren't given enough time or money to redo all the marketing and packaging for their version of that endo figure.
That said, the Arnold Endo which would have been the first and only 800 in the movie until dialogue change is also different from the original 800 endo. There are additions to the endo that look like extra plating, and the upper arm beam is curved out to the sides to give a more muscular look to the endo when seen from the front. Another Salvation timeline difference.

that looks absolutely badass!
great pics, agen.
i'm really digging the rusty, weathered finish on these endos. adds so much to the realism. can't wait for my rubber skin version to arrive!
The t-700 has the same problem.

The demo T-700 I saw at toys2 had the eye prob - the left eye was off and then it flickered on but was much dimmer than the right. Maybe just a tiny wire gets dislodged when the figure is moved around...

His prices online are US$, even for us canadians!The problem then is that while his US price remains constant, his CDN price in-store does not match up to the current exchange rate...In the store he quotes me in US$ - but he is unable to process a charge in US$. He has to convert it to CDN$ on his calculator but therein lies the problem..
He explained that he goes by the rate of exchange of the US/CDN $ at the time he bought his stock. That is the rate of exchange he will use to sell it in CDN $ regardless of what present day rates are. The CDN $ has improved a lot lately, but it makes no difference. For example, right now they are using the rate of $1 US=$1.20 CDN on much of their ht stuff, whereas presently the market is trading at $1US=$1.08.
So instead of us canadians paying 12% more than the website price, we are paying 20% more. Then on top of that we pay 13% sales tax on whatever the total has come to.
So, the prices come out differently between the online store and the brick and mortar shop - about $15-30 CDN per figure, that adds up. I don't really blame him, he doesn't want to lose money, and he is very friendly and helpful. But if our $ is doing well, there are cheaper US places to shop. But anyway, my point really was that most people on this forum offer really fair prices for their MIB figures...so a lot of $ can be saved here... just MHO..
(sorry for the rambling post-major lack of sleep this week
)
ah I see makes more sense, in that case, you're better off with boardies since nowadays the canadian dollar is almost on par with the us. Or simply buying from his site would cost you less then going to the store lol...

Haha, yeah, that's what I ended up doing a couple days ago (bought the SS Alien), I bought it online and paid the shipping to me, in US in still worked out cheaper than the CDN store price.

Thanks very much mate!
Oh and I just noticed something the t 700 has ball joints at the hips for the legs, though it only allows a limited range of movement, still very cool
If that doesn't work, get some really sticky duct tape or something, press it against the batteries, and see if you can pull them out like that. If you need to use glue and a foreign object, be careful how much you put where.
