Re: Building the ultimate Terminator T-800 figure.

I must resist not going after the T1 after seeing all those excllent photos

But here is my rather late entry for the T2:

Not finished yet; having a hard time finding the pieces.

I am using the regular Sideshow Buck Body because that one is slightly taller and more in scale for the slightly bigger sculpt I am using.

The sunglasses have been altered by a friend, was thinking of using the neca ones, but would first like to see the A. Bergholtz sculpt wearing them.

Have fun

When you order from Lonnie you specify which body the sculpt will sit on and he will make the modification for you, free of charge if I remember correctly.

Contact Imaresqd1 . That's one of his awesome headsculpts.

Yep, that's the one. Its my favorite that I've seen... Lonnie's are very good, but can look a bit rough to my eye.

Well thats okay too cuz if it was made to fit a Sideshow body you can still add a Hot Toys neck piece and use a True Type if thats the route you wanna take. It will work either way i'm sure.

trying to get him onto the newly shipped tt neck plug, it seems his neck hole is a tad too wide and shallow. i think if i jam a small o-ring in there i think it'll work out. time to hit the hw store.

Or you can just glue the head to the neck plug like I did. Well, I actually glued it and also blended both parts together with apoxie sculpey. When painted it looks like one piece altogether.

Re: Building the ultimate Terminator T-800 figure.

that has got to be one of the best repaints of a battle damaged T1 head!!!

one comment - you may want to darken his right eyebrow.

Re: Building the ultimate Terminator T-800 figure.

That is the best T1 head I have seen.

Should you sell that head (the one on the photo) you may send me a PM

Love it!

Re: Building the ultimate Terminator T-800 figure.

DAYAM Jack! That is perfect, the bloodwork esp. That's an Imaresqd1 head right?

Re: Building the ultimate Terminator T-800 figure.

That is damn nice!!

Re: Building the ultimate Terminator T-800 figure.

I'm pretty sure that's not an Imaresqd1 head. What is it Xeno?
