Statue T-800 Endoskeleton Maquette

[clutch]

Funny how things change. I can remember years ago getting chastised for pointing out inaccuracies I saw in prepainted statues.

 

[FACEBOX]

The licence is definitely from 'The Terminator', not Terminator 2. The exclusive is a name plate with 'The Terminator' logo on it. The base was probably done this way as it was easier than trying to replicate vehicle wreckage. There is even pipe bombs on the ground which were used by Kyle Reese, and a light up feature in the base which is supposed to replicate the burning wreckage.

Let's see if this works....
Tell me, what does the watermark at the bottom left say?
And please don't say Studiocanal.

Its definitely made under the t2 license... Never noticed that and explains why its a t2 endo

"The Terminator".

Good eye, didn't notice that. The previous pictures definitely had a ' The Terminator' watermark though, as P pointed out. A mistake has been made somewhere.

The description simply lists the licence as 'Terminator', not specifying any movie, which is weird. The name plate is the T1 logo, and the light up feature implies the 'rising from the fire' scene at the end of T1.

In the end, I really don't care what licence it has been produced under lol, but I still think the T2 watermark is a mistake, otherwise the name plate would have the same logo.

This statue has an identity disorder.

Either way, I tip my hat to you all. Good day.

Agreed

You too man

the thing i just noticed in that "teh sideminator" arse...

those pistons are... flying in the air.

this is where they should be connected to:

oh boy.

 

[rjszar]

P., you're making not want this anymore. Obviously, they couldn't make it work because of the pose, but that is just shear stupidity.

Depending on which endo version I believe the later films had the rear pistons with extra connections for better movement , but yes t1 had them only on the hip section. I still like this piece

 

[xpl0sive]

I still like it too, but I wish P hadn't pointed that out, lol.

from what i see it's the opposite.
a stop-motion doll in T1 definitely had additional joints on frontal pistons.

and some stupid rings on back pistons? (they just hang on those rings).

rings would definitely look bad, but at least they allowed extreme poses.
in T2 it lost those additional joints, and it's pistons system as we know it: connected directly to the hips, allowing little side movement of legs.

i don't know about T3, 4 & 5 skeletons. doubt they need any well drawn joints at all, as they were all bendy computer models.

i also always thought that any of these connection methods are bad, because they are fragile + i don't see a way for a microchip to control those hydraulics positions.

Yeah got the email as well. Happy days

I knew I have seen those somewhere and looks to be the puppet, I will need to see how the full size one was done and if they all looked the same. As for functionality goes lol. that endo design would never work in the real world. The redesigned version from TG was made to be functional if it was a real thing.

The redesigned version from TG was made to be functional if it was a real thing.

it was made to look more like michaelbay transporners, nothing else.

I knew I have seen those somewhere and looks to be the puppet, I will need to see how the full size one was done and if they all looked the same.

well, if you need it, search for it, my goal was to show you were wrong to say T1 didn't have joints that only he did have.

 

[crusaderscollection]

Even if this not accurate, I hope they look good. Don't want to deal with SS and sending it back.
