1/6 Hot Toys -Terminator Genisys: T-800 Guardian

Oh, I guess I'll have to go watch it again. I could have sworn that after the acid scene his face was messed up exactly like the hot toys sculpt.
Strange how all of a sudden hot toys gets the damage wrong after numerous releases where it was dead on.

I guess they don't want it to be accurate any more.
I'll go watch it again this weekend.

Well it's not surprising really for a new film. They could make CGI changes that Hot Toys will not be made aware of or, even if they are made aware of, that there simply won't be time to fix on the figure.

Hot Toys also takes liberties though even with well-documented source material like T2. The DX13's chest and knee battledamage is rather different to the movie and how McFarlane, NECA and Enterbay handled those areas.

Yeah the picture you posted above Brian is the battle damage after the t-1000 fight.

Well, this figure needs work to be screen accurate. Right now it's an amalgamation of two decades apart versions of 'pops'. Though, I'm sure many have seen that by now and mentioned it already over the pages I haven't yet read.

Granted i haven't seen T:G yet but i was/am hoping Arnie scenes in 84 he is looking younger, in these shots i see a younger de-aged Arnie,smoother skin,jowls reduced etc, close to T2 looking maybe, or at least a younger more recognizable Arnie. These shots might be exceptions or lower quality and the rest of the 84 scenes he may look older as like the sculpt. As i say i haven't seen Genisys and i could be 100% wrong but until i see more i do feel the clean sculpt is slightly too old looking,little bit too droopy and wrinkly in places, also maybe a bit squat looking.

Not screen accurate?.... I smell MCU.

Not to mention, you can fill in a day reading the Star Wars fanboys argue the inaccuracies of every single Darth Vader figure, including the current Sideshow and Hot Toys figures.

The HTs head sculpt looks like Van Dam cosplayer T-800

That it is. I'm getting this. It is way too expensive, but that is awesome.

i doubt it will look like that though. I dont know why jc bothers posting these photos if we dont get that lvl of paint quality. The hawkeye head that jc posted looks way better than the final product. Not saying it wont look good just not " That " good.

 

[boylost99]

It never is. Sadly. I do like the sculpt though. Wish more people would realise production run paint would never look this good.

 

[kiwiatlarge]

I know it isn't Hot Toys, but that Sideshow Nathan Drake was a real eye opener..

 

[jespernicolaj]

I know it wont. But if it will be even half as good, I'm happy

He posts them becuase he spends hours doing it. He's proud of his work. What's wrong with that? We could all have that level of detail but who's gonna spend an extra 75-150 per figure for better paint?

I know what you mean. Them pictures make some people get the wrong idea and expect more from Hot Toys just to end up disappointed from final releases.

I have to say it again, he really looks like Bruce Willis in these shots. Glad I picked up the DX13 when I did.

I don't see Willis at all.

Possibly in the top shot of the damaged head I do... I don't at all in the bottom shot..

According to many, you should be using it for John McLane, or US Marshal Deputy Sam Gerard...
