You like it, man? Yay or nay?

It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but it was less than 15 seconds.

Too hard to tell at this point, not really happy about seeing the T-1000 again to be honest:dunno

:lol Good one. Yeah, it looks terrible, and should never ever be discussed or shown in a T1-themed thread. :mad:

That's my fault, just figured most who have this figure would at least be interested in seeing the new teaser trailer:monkey3
 
Remember. The genysis film is supposed to bounce around between the other previous Arnie Terminator films. T-1000 should not be a surprise. [emoji16]
 
Where do you get that from, while not to Hot Toys level, NECA's Reese and Hicks both feature pretty good Biehn likenesses, so close that I'd say it's just the sculptor's ability that fell short and not some attempt to hide likeness, and NECA doesn't do figures they can't do the likeness for that I'm aware of, they got Bill Paxton even for Hudson, they got Sigourney Weaver which was huge. I'm sure HT could get Biehn if they wanted.

As for Matrix, is no one concerned that HT seems to be going back to covered elbow joints? I know people don't like seeing joints but I thought the all plastic arms with an elbow joint was a nice compromise to not worry about damage over time, this seems like a recipe for trouble like the old muscle bodies and a step backward. Kudods that the body seems very custom to Arnold though.

Nope he wouldn't give NECA his likeness for them figures, I read about it, can't remember now as it was ages ago.

I just don't think that's true, like I said, it's nowhere near Hot Toys Level of likeness, but NECA's looks like Biehn enough that if they didn't have rights there's no way it could be that close. It looks more like Biehn than their T-1000's look like Robert Patrick whose likeness comes with the T2 license.

I can't honestly say that without the outfit I would recognize that headsculpt as Biehn. The mouth a bit, but not the rest. Would be interesting to get some definitive proof one way or another. I'm always curious when an actor doesn't lend out their likeness rights. Seems like money for nothing so I'd be curious in regards to Biehn's motivations, if true.

I'll try find the article but he's very protective about his likeness, this was discussed around the time Aliens the game came out and how he'd be in it and then Far Cry Blood Dragon.

im buzzing over that trailer. got me real fired up for the film now!

Well that could be a interesting movie, so does that mean the Tech noir Terminator is going to get destroyed early on? And instead they have to fight a T1000 in the 80's? A different twist on the story without rebooting it, and still using Arnold.

JJ Abrams Star Trek opened a whole new can of worms with his reboot, wonder if we'll see more films done the same way.

I happen to think that's one of NECAs weaker sculpts but I'm pretty sure they did have his likeness permission both for this and the Aliens figures. If they don't have likeness rights they don't make the figures. See the rest of the USCMs from Aliens so far.
