Terminator Endoskeleton Life-Size Bust

[BurningRage]

I'm 90% sure I'm ordering this at some point. I think this might be the ultimate Terminator collectible for me.

Never thought I'd ever say this about a life size bust as I don't collect them nor do I have a single one, but this is how I'm feeling right now.

Life size busts are addicting once you get one.

If the Pistons can be moved I'm going to probably order this.

IF they can be moved...then why did the company taking promotional images not move them?

If you've got lots of space maybe.
I've got Berserker Pred, which is silly big, on display but never been able to display my Invincible IM Bust

They did the same thing on the life size and I was able to move mine. I don't why they do that!

Probably because whoever was setting it up and taking pictures, doesn't know how it is supposed to look like,

Nah, I don't have the space for anything more than one and I've never felt the desire ever to have a LSB. Ever. This piece for some reason has me chomping at the bit though. It's probably because it's a machine and not just some dude's head.

I'd put a plaque underneath it that says "Governor of California". Take away the Terminator reference and it's just a nude politician lol.

The photographer doesn't necessary work in the collectible industry, they should have sent someone to make sure it's set up properly for the photo shoot though. Even the Chronicles one could have used a different lighting for their photo shoot, their proto came out more silver then metallic.

The Pistons on the tease pic isn't flared out like in the proto pic. Hmmmmm

 

[marker2037]

Good point. They must move at least a little bit.

Great catch. If you look at the new photos, the left piston (right side of picture) is out further than the right piston. These have to be moveable. Maybe it has something to do with you being able to turn the head. Makes me feel better about ordering this.

From a true expert on SF...

If I'm being honest, not good.

The Neck Pistons are splayed waaaay to wide along with the neck hoses.

...

Took me like less than 5 minutes to fix this on the life size by rerouting the hoses that are attached to the piston. The piston attached to the head via magnets.

Not sure I'm getting it but for anyone that does I hope this one is "Fixable" the same way...

 

[marker2037]

Worries over.

I was able to get an answer to this earlier than I expected. The pistons are on a ball joint at the top of the pistons, so folks will be able to bring those in closer to the neck area if they so choose to.

Thanks for waiting patiently for an answer all!

So then they can be moved in? That's great!!! Now I will order this then. That was the only thing keeping me from ordering it was they looked weird flared out like that.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

Worries over.

There will always be something

 

[marker2037]

true

 

[pmtz2005]

I think I may jump on the band wagon and order this

 

[Freak-1138]

Pre-ordered mine last night!..

Btw. It seems Sideshow asked Bigshot Toyworks (who also did The Iron Giant Deluxe figure for Mondo/Sideshow) for help with sculpting and developing this bust.

Not sure I'm getting this but this might be something cool to hang my jacket on
