My Arnie T-800 PF review

[SOLIDSNAKE]

While I don't own any Arnie statues, I've seen the photos of practically all of the different types, and the Sideshow PF is definitely the most accurate. I literally cried (no kidding) when I saw the pics of the Arnie T-800 PF - it is so beautiful . Congrats for getting him man! I liked your video review!

thanks for the comments man !

The arnie pf did all the work I just filmed it !

I've always seen eye to eye with most of Michaels reviews but like most have said this one was a bit harsh. Unfair? No but a bit harsh. His pictures actually make the "disproportion" issue appear false. Michael your pics are some of the best i've seen to date.

In the beggining I found the shoulders an issue but this piece has grown on me since. I can't wait to recieve mine BUT its not perfect so take it easy on Crawfords review.

Nothing is perfect.

If this was Arnold from T1, the body issues would be totally dead on in the review; this is based on T2, and Arnold was not as bid then.....personally, this piece seems pretty accurate...maybe my mind is playing tricks on me, but the score seems too low for this piece.

It is a cool review indeed. Thanks!

Good review, but the thing about "exclusive should have second battle-damaged head" is incorrect, because in the film, with this level of clothes & body damage head wasn't damaged at all.
It's not a minus.
But overall it is a great & very fair review.

It does come with a white belt, which of course is completely wrong. I used a black magic marker, looks tons better and film accurate now.

Nice review, if a little unfair. Would agree totally with abnpredator, people expect a body building Arnie, he simply wasn't the same size as the first movie.

That's true, and even by T1, Arnold had already been out of bodybuilding for quite some time.

to each his own i guess. the t-800 is prolly my favorite pf i own atm.

I agree with the majority here, the proportions look fine to me. I think this is one of the nicest PFs that Sideshow has produced so far.

How could he give this 2 1/2 stars and give the Indy pf 4??? Don't get me wrong, I love the Indy pf, but now that this has arrived, Arnie's a 4 and Indy's a 3 1/2.

The proportions are fine to anyone who has seen it in person unless they haven't seen T2 in ages. Their's actual pores and texture in the skin (unlike Indy) which doesn't look sandy or wierd like the review said, unless he got some defective piece. The skin tone is perfect, unlike the Indy pf which looks too dark in certain lighting. And the likeness is PERFECT at every angle in any lighting. The Indy pf has to be displayed at the right angle under the right lighting to not look slightly goofy.

Conclusion: I think I lost my trust in Michael Crawford's reviews

Yeah...very harsh review...unwarranted. I just got this PF and it is a true piece of art and the proportions seem right on.

Yep, I agree. Typically I agree with MC, but in this case he missed the mark.
