Official NECA Terminator Thread

[TBlake]

isn't there supposed to be a terminator dog as well?

 

[The Rider]

It looks like the actionman dog:

When I saw Neca 1/4 Pinguin, I wish they give a Schwarzenegger T-800 the same treatment:-(

Got my Tech Noir figure today!!

 

[a-dev]

It's actually quite a good sculpt isn't it? As usual NECA nailed the hair.

 

[ocielz]

Hell yeah it is!! One of their best figures.

 

[EndoSickness]

Wanted to post a little something:
My friends got me a trip to a horror convention in germany, called "Weekend of Horrors".
Absolutely amazing day for me, so many great people.
Kim Coates ("Tig", Sons of Anarchy) was there, Scott Wilson ("Hershel", TWD), Marc Dacascos, Cary Tagawa, Robert Lasardo and many more.
But the best for me...hands down...was Tom Woodruff Jr. You sure know he made all the aliens with Alec Gillis, but he worked on Terminator too, his second project under Stan Winston, after Buckaroo Banzai.

Talked to the man, such a nice person, talked about terminator and told him that's my favorite movie and such.
He signed my knewly aquired Kyle Reese, bought for me from my best friend.

Truely humbled, will sure as hell hunt down more conventions now. So happy.


Have a look:

Congrats, man.

Any news on Terminator figures from NECA other than the videogame stuff?

 

[EndoSickness]

Thx, man.


No, news, nothing. It was rather small, compared to you guys one the other side of the big water. No figure companies, or something like that.

The only thing I was asking about was the status on ED-209, how it affects german sellers, but the dude with knowledge was in discussions.
So that´s it...

With the trailer for Terminator Genesis premiering today, would be great if NECA had this license as well.

I received an early run of the new Robocop Vs. The Terminator set of endoskeleton 2-pack last week.

They look really terrific. NECA used the most recent and best sculpt of their T-800. Both the red and blue versions really stand out with the highlighting paint.
Definitely a welcomed addition to the video game series.

Just got those also, pretty good figures. I'm waiting on the one with the mini gun. Thought there would be interest. Oh well, more for me

Not gonna happen, NECA's stayed away from T3 and T4 and the new movie looks awful, no way they waste resources on T5 before T3 or T4.

I'm personally looking forward to these "video game" versions of the Endoskeletons, as well as the min-gun version and the "endo-dog". The colored paint apps don't bother me that much. Just ordered a few sets of the TRU 2 pack Robocop vs Terminator ('93 Video Game) 7 Inch Action Figure - 2 Pack Terminator Endoskeleton - Toys R Us Exclusive - NECA - Toys "R" Us

Re: Official NECA The Terminator Thread



Hi guys this is my first time in the forum and I hope I am in the right place, If not then please accept my apologies.

I would like to present my custom Neca 12" Final Battle T101.

I was never happy with how he arrived and decided to give him a repaint and im quite happy with how he turned out. I am awaiting some Alclad Chrome to arrive and will be chroming the endo parts but for now here he is. ( I am also working on a better base )

I also run a custom 3d printing/Paint service and as most custom painters have several projects running at the same time. I don't know if posting links is allowed here but id like to share my page if there is interest

I hope you like and again I apologise if I am breaking any rules

Kind regards

David

Skin work looks nice, I'd suggest going a bit sloppier with the blood around the Endo parts, right now it looks a bit too uniform and almost looks like an outline rather than a bleeding wound and maybe go a bit darker, more maroon than straight red.

Here's what I did a few years back.

I've long been bothered by the sloppy paint work on NECA's 12" Final Battle T-800, and while yes, it's a NECA figure, and rather cheap, I don't think the paint work lived up to even NECA's better work, particularly the blood work, too toyish and they slopped so much blood onto the Endoskull obscuring the metal and ruining the look of the overall portrait. I may touch up some blood work around it, but for now at least, I finally have the Endo popping more having finally bit down and bought a Krylon silver leafing pen to do the Endo bits, what a great item, wish I'd gotten it sooner, but it was the final step to finally showing off my work here, I redid the skin and blood work some time ago, using the great Enterbay portrait for reference and adding detail not there in the original paint job while also cleaning up a lot of it.

ORIGINAL NECA PAINT JOB

REPAINT

And some just for fun.

 

[Davea1982]

Wow yours looks really good. And thank you for your kind words, I will be spraying the endo parts with Alclad Chrome next week so the blood and a few areas will be redone and ill post once complete. The flesh was brought out with a wash but looks really effective. I also applied a wash on to the tshirt also

I have a lot of projects in the pipeline all Terminator related. Would you like a link to my FB page?

 

[MaulFan]

Thanks, and sure, share any links you want.

Human skin is my weak area with paint, I'm pretty happy with what I can do with anything else but no matter what my skin always looks more toylike than original NECA paints, I only redid the skin on the T-800 because it was necessary in order to redo the blood, it was so heavy I couldn't go as subtle as I went without a new base of skin to paint atop.

 

[Davea1982]

Hey thank you

And if you ever need a repaint on the face I would be happy to oblige. I've just ordered a shedload of paints so will be updating mine by the end of the week. I find the best way to apply skin tone is a light coat of flesh then a darker wash ( Mix the same flesh tone with some brown/water and apply, Then drybrush the base colour over the top)

Here is a link to my page so any likes are appreciated

You will see there's a few Endoskeleton 3d printed skulls there and I cant wait to finish those. Hoping there may be some interested parties here in these forums. As im relatively new I am currently trying to spread the word as much as possible.

Look forward to hearing your thoughts.
