Present toys - PT-39 - Future Warrior (T-800 Terminator)

[a-dev]

Yeah the MMS117 was a bit pin headed. Still a nice figure though, one of my early HT pick ups. This sculpt looks pretty good, anymore pics floating about? Would be interesting to see how it looks with the shades on.

Still waiting to pick up a superior Arnie sculpt for my Galleria fig, after all these years.

`Yeah I saved other pics

Spoiler

Again, for anyone just tuning in, not my pics, not my figure and not the Present Toys figure.

That sculpt looks very good.

Well I think I am NOT going to sell my DX13 ex— I think the value of it will dip, but not enough for me to sell and then pick this up… this is just no quite up to par…

InArt … paging InArt…

Yeah, that custom sculpt looks on point! I would certainly pick it up if it hit the market. Not sure if there is enough general interest for a company to release another Arnie sculpt? Maybe on the back of this PT release with what appears a bit of a dud sculpt that situation might change.

Custom looks good, reminds me if the MMS117 sculpt pics. Back then we weren't being bombarded by Iron Men.

 

[Draylo]

I dont think this looks all that bad for the price.

I owned an extra DX13 I sold last year for around £550, so that fig seems to be still fairly sought after.
The DX13 is still the best in terms of likeness imo. As others have said a battle damaged sculpt is easier to get away with then a clean sculpt. Us humans are just too good at recognising individual faces, so minor difference can usually be easily identified. It has to be one of the hardest things to do in art, capture an accurate facial likeness.

Sculpt I believe is by one Kayak Zhang. Someone in the DC section once drew my attention to it but I paid it little heed at the time.

Definitely a better sculpt than this PT one, probably better than DX10. I think he sized it too small though. Looks like he was keeping it in line with the neck of this particular body but the general proportions have ended up looking wrong - it's kinda like a stock MMS117 which always looked a bit pinheaded.

Is it Present Toys body?

Is it Present Toys body?

I don't believe so. It pre-dates the release of Present Toys so it's probably entirely Hot Toys except for the custom head.

Received the invoice from OSK but I have the DX10. I'm not sure if it's worth paying for this one at this point. Will definitely get the BD version though.

Hi all - I'm very much a newbie in this world, so still learning. I'm a big Terminator and Arnold fan, so I thought I should pick up some Terminator representation. I'm trying to figure out what my options are in the figure/statue space. I don't really want the articulating/toy-like items like the Neca action figures, but something a bit more upgraded I can put next to some DC Direct stuff I have.

I'm struggling to figure out what my options really are in this space. I see things about piecemealing stuff together, older releases, and now this newer release. This one I'm not sold on because of the likeness... I want it to look like Arnold. Anyways, thought you all might be able to help guide me to some good options out there. I'll probably cross-post to the battle-damaged version thread, too.

Thanks all!

While I agree it might be a tad too small, the sculpt itself and paint app looks very good. What does a custom like this cost? I know ebay is full of 1/6 Arnie heads but who knows what you're getting in hand? Are there even mass-produced 3rd party heads that are worth buying in terms of quality?

 

[shells075]

I still really rate the TechNoir and battle damaged sculpt from the MMS136, maybe thats just me though?

 

[MGS_OldBoy57]

I’m personally staying away from this one as PTs Punisher release turned out pretty bad compared to the proto pics but man, what’s up with HT/Inart not getting in on this Arnie action? With HT redoing some classics I’d love to see them get back into the Terminator/Predator license.

 

[MedievaL]

Damn now I worry about PT's Blade that I poed.

 

[Hoody999]

Sculpt is really rough. It looks like a caricature. I think I’m going to either cancel or just sell it.

Hoping the BD version is better. At least half the headsculpt is blown away.

Yeah me too. But now I’m extremely skeptical. I’m just going to wait for the photos of it to come out before doing anything.

Got my DX10 sculpt and jacket. Hope it will fit the neck w/o having to mod it. Figure is in Luxembourg so seems will get it some time next week, unless I'm extremely lucky.

Looks like will need a neck adapter for the DC10 head. Pic is from OSK FB group so I take no credit for it.

Not necessarily. Might be able to plonk the DX10 on top, looks like you can remove the neck peg and neck adapter.
