Broke and happy
Is the TN a WM exclusive.
I saw that Pescadero figure he was selling, I commented on it asking how he did the legs and feet as I was thinking of attempting my own custom rather than pay out as I've spent a **** ton of money of Terminator related stuff, I'm now officially in the Hot Toys Terminator club.
How much did you pay for the figure if you don't mind me asking? I was quoted around ?150 plus a Sarah Connor figure & a Ripley figure to use for parts but that was well over a year ago so memory might be a bit inaccurate.
Definitely would be interested in an improved paint job/articulated Kyle Reese, maybe with the dark navy coat and alternate head from the factory scene BUT I would settle for just better articulation. I've got two Kyles already but I'd definitely but another 2 if re-released.
I'd pay what I did for SDCC John for a T1 Sarah. I think it would be more cost effective to do an official Pescadero Sarah as they already have the ponytail head and only have change the legs/ feet/ paint job, maybe add the slice to the shoulder from the T1000 in the lift scene. I can't think of too many accessories except a nightstick and the pistol. The needle she stuck Silberman with would be too fragile at 1:10 scale for an accessory IMO.
I've literally only ever bought Terminator, Aliens and a couple Predator NECA figures, oh I also have a loose Schwarzenegger Commando I bought of Ebay. Other than that I have no interest in TMNT or any other franchise.
It?s actually possible to go into Target and get Ultimate T-800, Ultimate T-1000, Sarah Connor/John Connor two pack, the standard Endoskeleton and Ultimate Motorcycle Cop T-1000. I saw them all together today on the shelves, at retail, pretty crazy. A new comer to the line that missed out could easily ?complete? a collection in one go for about $160. Not bad.
Likewise, if you go to Walmart, they have Ultimate Trch Noir and Ultimate Police Station Shootout out together right now.
Only one missing is Kyle Reese. They really should remake him with new legs along with an all new 1984 Sarah Connor. Makes sense to do at this point.
Like as though they're new movies that have just come out - reminding of the olden days when there'd already be a whole line of figures on store shelves.
WTF, next year is the 30th Anniversary already.
Man, I remember when it was the 20th Anniversary . . .
If they do rehashes from here on out, I want,
- Kenner John Connor (another shot at the dirt bike so I can have a loose one)
- Kenner T-1000 (paint it up to make him look like he’s phasing from metallic liquid metal to normal colors)
- Steel Mill T-800 (swappable damage arm and articulated legs)
- Steel Mill T-1000 (same as above, give him a rod with a gripping hand to beat the **** out of T-800)
- Ultimate Kyle Reese (new legs, swappable barearms/torso, pistol, pipe bombs)
And I’m good. While I’d like all new figures like adult General John Connor, T1 Sarah, and Future Reese, I get the reluctance I guess.
What Hot Toys have you got?
PM sent on the Pescadero Sarah question.
If NECA did one officially I would ideally like to see it with switch-out parts that allow the denim jacket she picks up in their garage stop. Although I doubt they'd do that. Accessories wise maybe I'd add the broken sweeping brush (or mop?) - if memory serves that's what she beats facelicker with. She'd need new hands to hold this and the riotstick probably...though NECA aren't too good with providing extra hands in the Terminator line.
Not been to the forums since january so thought I'd come upload some fresh pics

Also just dipped my toes into the Hot Toys pool.
Bet everybody was glad that Sarah + John two pack was released, I had that pre ordered as soon as it became available with Kapow Toys in the UK. Glad John had his camo on his shirt this time unlike the SDCC John!
As usual I see we are all waiting for a T1 Sarah and Future War Kyle. I'd be happy if NECA would do a T1 Sarah wearing that Pink/white top and blue jeans exactly like the Sarah Dikke Toys Customs made & Re-release Kyle Double pack.
Where did you get the Pescadero background and floor?
Hi mate, I had them custom made and printed. I designed them based on the Pescadero background that is in the NECA Ultimate T1000 inner box
Impressive! Wish I could do that
Hola bro. Glad your happy with how he turned out... "it doesn't feel pity... Or remorse..." [emoji102][emoji41]Got this figure repainted to resemble the movie more as I love how the T-800 looks in this scene with his damaged skin dying and almost zombified look.
