Official NECA Terminator Thread

Who do you want to get the license?

I can't think of anyone in this scale that would've done better.

Free up the licenses and watch how many companies will pop up.

For starters I hear that the a-devfabio toys 4 life company is really good.

a-dev would bankrupt the company trying to make a John Connor, and when trying to buy any rights to a movie Difabio would just insult the studio.

They still might last longer than Molecule8 though.

I agree though, NECA is still the last best hope for the last best hope of mankind - Edward Furlong.

Would any other companies jump on the license were NECA to give it up? And would they ever make John Connor? Would their scale and aesthetic match with NECAs in any case? **** knows.

I want NECA to do it. I....I..I don't understand why they haven't yet. If Randy is any sort of a Terminator fan I don't know how the lack of T2 John isn't annoying the ever-living **** out of him as it is me. 4 main characters in the movie and we've got 3. Why stop there. Just one ****ing more - the guy who the plot of the movie revolves around - come ON!

Impatient fellow that I am I ordered the 1:4 scale yesterday. Looking forward to seeing it next to the Turtles and the Batman Returns stuff - movie icons of the early 90s.

If I can't stand to look at it without the sunglasses I'll just put them on him. I've got so many T-800s what would it matter if one of them wasn't completely accurate to a scene.

I want to get one just to recreate the battle across time look. Then I'd have to somehow hunt down a 1/4 plasma rifle.

Hey guys - new here.
This is my NECA T2:3D figure with a 1:10 fatboy plus customed backdrops
I have since removed the lights on the handle bars like the movie.

 

[jye4ever]

That looks great love his leg pose it makes him not only look powerful but also gives him life and makes both looks realistic.

That looks fantastic! Well done.

 

[a-dev]

Welcome! Great choice of backdrops.

I'm another of the lucky ones to have a Fatboy for the 7'' line. I have a Maisto. Though I wish mine had the red detailing like yours. I think mine is gold and the Harley logo is gold and red whereas I think it should be more the colouration that yours has.

I've just terminated my home-made pedestal (resin and metal) for my 18" T-800 endoskeleton by Neca...

You fixed it. Good job!

 

[rjszar]

Awesome. I was going to fix mine a couple of weeks ago until I saw that it had a missing wheel. Had to return it to BBTS and haven't gotten it back yet.

[a-dev]

Do you have any 'before' shots? To be honest I haven't really been clear on what's off with the stock tank - I've simply taken you guys at your word. I just never really paid the HKs much attention, too much time spent on Arnie's hair

Man, I want that 1:10 Fatboy . . . and a John Connor for the T-800 to protect. That first pose is perfect.

 

[a-dev]

Well that can't be DiFabio posting today because he was perma-banned. I assume I've gone through Temporal Displacement without even realising it and I'm now in the past....

Awesome.

Thanks to you all!

Head is backwards, turret is in the center and the arms are separated from the torso.

Torso was glued to the center.

Pretty dumb of NECA how off this guy was to the actual HK Tank. And the way they designed it made it quite a chore to modify...

Lastly I applied silver sharpie to the piece. I think it looks much better than the dingy original paint job.(Sharpie on the right)

 

[a-dev]

Thanks rivera. Guess I'll just skip it altogether. I don't think that kind of modding is in me.

Was DiFabio actually perma-banned or is that just a running joke? How could that happen; he's been around here forever!
