Disappointing effort from Sideshow here, and on the Predator. The CC Genisys piece looks like a QC disaster too. At this point, wishing that SS would just give up the licenses. Not much fun being a collector with nothing worthwhile to collect from their fave licenses. The 1-4 Guardian and 1/2 bust from CC were pretty good I thought though

:exactly: Not even ordering this or the Pred despite being huge fan of both. CC Endo was a mess due to the factory they used. I returned mine, such a shame as it had potential. CC does want the T1/T2 license, but SS is probably never going to give it up.
 
I would love a true and accurate 1/4 scale t1 endo I am still on the fence with this I love the added chest details but the pose and inaccuracies for t1 idk. The chronicle piece really was a shame with the finish but there is tons of details hiding in it

I was not happy with the finish or pose on this, I could live with the inaccuracies until someone does a better one. CC one was a mess. Not sure I would have kept it even if the finish was right. Really felt cheap and wouldn't go together very well.
 
Given that they are using ABS plastic on this, I wonder how much of it will be ABS and how much polystone? I'm worried that the endo might be entirely ABS with only the base being polystone. Hope not though.

As for the finish, I think it looks good in their promo shots and has some shine to it, but looked fairly flat at SDCC, which is disappointing. I still want it as their is a shortage of 1/4 endo, depending on how the production piece turns out. I'll definitely be waiting for in-hand pics on this.

I get the feeling that SS are trying to up their game in recent months. And, I think that's down to market competition - other companies have been delivering better product. The BvS PFs look pretty good, as does the 1/2 Wolf Bust. Fingers crossed...

If they're using injected moulded plastic (?) then there's no excuse for a lack of chroming...
 
My flexi payments have started for this and I can't wait to get him the statute has lots of detail, probably the most I've seen on a statue just as much as the CM one

I don't think the final product will even compare to the CM. Too much plastic.
 
The issue that I have with the pose is that I can't see Arnold doing it. Heck, I don't think I've ever been in that type of stance with my legs spread so far apart; maybe an aerobics class. It's unnatural yet non-robotic too.
 
I dont mind the arm pose really but that leg pose is more comic cover than actual film piece. Even the art print didnt have the stance that far apart. I wonder how hard it would be to modify it? Since its not chromed could always repaint it and modify the statue, hell could even make new arms for it with the correct joints....hmmm the choices lol I will probably end up getting this at some point
 
I did preorder for this wonderful maquette EXCLUSIVE after a day when SC added this on their website:yess:blissy:. From my point of view is at 10 classes over CC. It is a masterpiece and I ordered this Maquette for strong character he has. Here I mean the position, details. Definitely in a short while it will be sold out and then on eBay will start the fun :)))):slap 1000, 2000, 3000$
 
You think I'm funny? Funny how?...
