No, I didn't take it as a put down at all.
Like you, I really wish the screen accurate bike was available but I finally gave up looking and decided to get the Harley.
I was just sharing some feedback that I have gotten on the display. Most people, who don't analyze the details like us, just think "hey, that looks like a little scene from the movie".
I'm surprised no one on twitter has asked about the possibility of T2 John since the Newt announcement. Maybe, like me, everyone's afraid of getting a direct 'No' answer.
We want to believe, rather than having it shot down.

The gloss finish on the sunglasses is better than the old figure's matte finish.
I don't like the headsculpt for the Police shootout head with gargoyles though. Doesn't look anything like Arnold or the sunglasses.

The paint on a NECA prototype doesn't matter though does it. That gloss finish on the Gargoyles could be matte when the figure is in our hands.

Sarah's hands are just blu-tacked in place at the moment.

Now that's a cool custom.
Found a Kyle Reese yesterday at a comic shop. Repainted his hair, eyebrows and teeth. Fantastic figure.

I feel like Kyle is highly underrated and the paint apps taint one of NECA's better sculpts.
I bought another one to use the coat for that Sarah custom so I saw the packaging photos again - he looks reasonably Biehn-like in them. But on the figure itself, well, if it's the paint ruining the likeness boy does it really ruin it. I now have 2 samples and they both look like some kind of Alien.
I find the paint on the eyes really posessed looking or something, just bad. In photos where you don't see them as well and the facial features are highlighted, i see Biehn.

Someone asked about an Ultimate Kyle Reese and the answer was a little more positive than it has been in the past.
Since there's only been one figure of him an ''Ultimate'' Reese would necessarily feature previously unreleased parts - presumably a swappable jacket/arms for the coat he wears later in the film and a bandaged right hand. The pipe bombs would also seem like a given...if he happens.

Hope I'm not seeing another case of one leg longer than the other like on Sarah Connor, it really bugs me on that figure.
Otherwise this is about what I knew to expect. I don't think they quite nailed the hair on these sculpts but I knew they probably wouldn't redo them. So anything new like the revolver is a bonus.
For the Tanker Truck pursuit version I suppose I'll swap the new legs onto the old body - assuming they're compatible - because that body has the chest and stomach wound.
Then two other figures will use the other 2 heads. I think that'll do it. 3 purchases.
It'd be nice if they'd make an eye-surgery figure, maybe it'll happen one day.
