MAFEX The Terminator

Wow.

My first thought is how unusual it feels to see a company making classic Terminator action figures again. Feels like it's been a dead license for years. While NECA has still held the license they haven't made anything brand new since John Connor and they've been content to simply reissue the Ultimates over and over again.

So this is exciting. I'm in.

HEY HT! LOOK AT THIS!

Seeing him done by a new company is such a breath of fresh air.

Mafex do like to continue lines so I wouldn't be surprised if we also get Kyle and maybe Sarah.

 

[Bravomite]

I will buy this. A nice surprise

 

[Otomofan]

Very cool to see MAFEX branching out again. I'm getting tired of seeing crappy Marvel repaints solicited, knowing they'll just be clogging up the logjam of releases and anything that's actually cool is just gonna be delayed another year.

I never had any strong attachments to the first film, but I'd be down 100% for if/when they do a T2 version.

Wonder what the other MAFEX solicit is for this month? I can't find any more info anywhere.

 

[Johnny Utah]

It's Hush Nightwing.

I'm excited about the double jointed elbows and knees - should facilitate better gun wielding poses than you can get with NECA. I wonder will it have a full range of hands. I see one fist anyway. It could do with a special one for the Uzi though. The straight handle on that needs a particular grip that neither Hot Toys or NECA provided

edit - I didn't look very hard. It seems to have both fist hands and at least one relaxed hand (so presumably both) per the first picture. Good. I hate being stuck with empty trigger finger hands if you don't want the figure holding a gun.

 

[K1LLJOY]

Mafex Arnie!

100% getting it.

I hope you guys are right and we get Kyle and Sarah too.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Also it says 'The Terminator version.'

Some new T2 not sculpted by the reuse kings TMNECAT would be cool.

 

[The Green Goblin]

Very excited for this release. I can't imagine Mafex doing any non Terminator figures from the movies though.

Not sure those gloves are accurate actually. Should the skin of the knuckles and the top of his hand be exposed? They aren't on the NECA or Hot Toys figures....

 

[Johnny Utah]

The nitpicking has begun!

 

[a-dev]

Well, it's an easy enough fix if they don't fix it but after checking youtube there definitely shouldn't be exposed skin with these gloves.

 

[a-dev]

The nitpicking has begun!

And the hair doesn't suck but I wouldn't call it correct either. Too high on top, too evenly spiked up, should really be some areas where it looks like it's lying flatter. No one ever quite captures the look of that wig he was wearing.

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

Not sure those gloves are accurate actually. Should the skin of the knuckles and the top of his hand be exposed? They aren't on the NECA or Hot Toys figures....

Yes and no.

The gloves in the film had the holes, but they covered some of them.

edit

Never mind, these are the punk gloves. Well, he wore them in the poster....whatever.

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

Wait a minute, we're talking about the ending gloves. Never mind.

 

[a-dev]

Yeah, those are the Tech Noir gloves.

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

Yeah, those are the Tech Noir gloves.

So the answers in no. The police shoot out gloves shouldn't have the knuckle holes. You are right.
