1/6 Hot Toys-The Terminator (T1)-MMS 238-T-800-(Battle Damaged Version) 1/6 Scale Figure

[Bo Shrek]

Anyone going to sell their Tech Noir and replace with this one? Would you?

 

[Wor-Gar]

Looks a lot better in hand it seems

How about that. Loki 2.0 anyone?

I think you guys may be overvaluing the impact of Arnold (and to a lesser extent Dolph Lundgren?). Of course, he was the biggest action star of the '80s, but most action movies of that time still had somewhat regular sized (i.e., not 'roided freaks) guys like Kurt Russell, Bruce Willis, Mel Gibson, JCVD, Chuck Norris, Christopher Reeve, Seagal, Harrison Ford, Jackie Chan, Jet Li, etc. This follows the '60s and '70s , when our action heroes were Clint Eastwood, Charles Brosnan, Toshiro Mifune, Bruce Lee, Sean Connery, Steve McQueen, all the guys in those blaxploitation movies. So I think there's been a pretty consistent trend here.

If I was a premium member I'd rep you right now for that.

Would love to see Hot Toys do a line of Kuraswa characters.

Why? They represent different scenes from the film. However, the technoir's boots definitely need to be replaced with
the new ones

Some awesome pics in this thread!

But deduct a point for Charles Brosnan.

And pants.

Something seems off about this guy . But the pictures are looking a lot better .

I think the two things this piece is lacking to make it feel like the BD T1 from the movie is pale grey, dying skin and an intense expression. As soon as I get my hands on this thing, you'll see what a difference a paint job will make.

 

[Wor-Gar]

And pants!

Wait, did they stitch the lapels down on the jacket?

Even in the prototype this seems to have been the case. An easy enough remedy, but hopefully the stitches/holes won't still be noticeable.

He was one of the best, no doubt. Hell in the Pacific is a great, overlooked film.

But deduct a point for Charles Brosnan.

Few movies are as good, or performances as bad ass as Harmonica from Once Upon a Time in the West.

Anyone find this for under $210 yet?

Wait for the next $20 SSC coupon code. They have worked on this guy. They have also offered double and triple rewards on him a couple of times.

I live in CA though, so the $20 coupon basically gets eaten by CA tax.

This is what I was going say. The Trucker battle damage HS doesn't have pale dying skin. Looking foward to seeing that paint app.

The top pic no bueno, bottom pic si bueno. I'm still getting this one or two. Now for a 1:6 diecast Endo

I'm sure you know Franco Columbu played a Terminator in The Terminator.

There were other big guys in smaller action films in the 80's, like Lou Ferrigno, Carl Weathers, Mr T, Hulk Hogan and I'm sure there's a few others I'm forgetting.

80's Hercules




90's Hercules

And pants!

Nah, too restrictive. Let dem boys breathe!

Yup. He's also, like, the same height as Peter Dinklage.

How does an American company produce this based on an American blockbuster movie? No promises that I'll never complain about Hot Toys again but admittedly, it seems Terminator is in better hands over in China than it would be at home if that T2 PF is anything to go by.

 

[DiFabio]

Looks . . . Awesome!


Now seriously, let up on your criticisms. All you gotta do is look at that. Baaaad tings.
