Re: Official NECA The Terminator Thread
Those are really nice!
I passed on HT versions so this will definitely be a more affordable welcome!

^^ posted this in the NECA 1/4 scale predator thread that hopefully Tankman will see it and answer one way or another.
Re: Official NECA The Terminator Thread
Probably not. Despite the differing markets NECA probably feels that 1/6 is Hot Toys territory. If memory serves they announced the 12" T2 figures before it was known that Hot Toys had gotten the license. Though they went forward with those 2 12"ers they didn't release any more, no more T-800s and no T-1000s....so it seems unlikely.

Re: Official NECA The Terminator Thread
That would be really bad, i have their 12" t800 arnie (pescadero) and it looks really good. I'd like a t1000 to go with him
(although i have hot toys t1000 parts coming my way from hk ).

Re: Official NECA The Terminator Thread
People asked Tankman if there'd be a 1/6 Predator from NECA and the answer was always that HT had that arena covered so I'm assuming the same applies to Terminator.

Re: Official NECA The Terminator Thread
...I'd probably still buy them. Problem is the paint and skin texture isn't much of a step up from the 8" figures.
A 12" Cyberdyne Showdown T-800 would have been cool though as the HT figure doesn't look quite right holding a minigun IMO. Plus it'd provide accurate gloved hands and grenade bandolier that people could use with their Hot Toys....well maybe not the hands.
I'm really satisfied by HT's T-1000 but perhaps having a 12" Galleria T-1000, perhaps given the added bonus of appliable bullet hits and the split head which HT didn't do would also be rather nifty.
As for the T1 figures - yeah I'd buy 12"ers of those.

Christ, another T-1000 breakage - this time a neck joint. Truly awful QC on T2 series 3.
Thanks to Sachiel for pointing it out on Twitter it seems that the Steel mill T-1000 will have a second head - presumably a non-BD one but I wonder will it be exactly the same as the Galleria?

NECA says on twitter that Reese will happen if the T1 Arnies do well.
No Sarah or John Connor though.

Re: Official NECA The Terminator Thread
Yep, just as I figured. It's also worth noting that they said they HAVE his likeness and rights to a Biehn Reese. Seems like a pretty done deal to me. Kyle Reese will be the T-1000 of The Terminator figure line. 2009 was pretty much all about the T2 T-800 Arnold as far as products went. 2010 was T-1000. This year is obviously 1984 Terminator goodness.
Next year, 2012 will most likely be the year of Kyle Reese figures. If NECA is doing them, Hot Toys will too.

If the HT Reese weren't to happen until 2012 I hope that would be because in 2011 they're finishing their T2 line. I want something Terminator from them this year...the Tech Noir kinda straddled 2010/11 as far as I'm concerned so I'm not counting that

Re: Official NECA The Terminator Thread
I could see Hot Toys revealing a Battle Damaged T2 T-800 for the anniversary this summer, then showing a Police Shoot Out T-800 to finish of both films.
Then in 2012 we see Reese. Or maybe Reese after the battle damaged T-800 and then finishing the Hot Toys Terminator line with the Police Shoot Out?

Re: Official NECA The Terminator Thread
That may very well happen. I know I'm craving more Terminator goodness right now. I actually felt like owning another Hot Toys T2 T-800 until I saw that it's up to $250-$300.
I'm kicking myself for not just buying two when they were what, $170? Atleast I have one, and a perfect one at that. I surely made up for it with the Tech Noirs.
I won't make the same mistake with a Battle Damaged and the Police Shootout though, if they ultimately happen of course.
This summer will be fantastic. NECA figures will hit retail, we'll finish up the NECA T2, get a taste of NECA T1, have Hot Toys information/pics hopefully. It'll be good.
