Hot Toys - QS002 - The Terminator: 1/4th scale Endoskeleton Collectible Figure

[V-Raptor]

Thanks, guys! In the end it appears to be really nice display base for HT figure. I'm glad that I was able to make it.
But I'm not going to sell copies because it's totally not right. Just one egoistic piece for me. )))

EB. There was a few teasers some time ago (WIP on the computer screen and the close shot of the skull, probably 1/1 scale by Sideshow). I'm not sure if EB would finally make their Endo now after the HT made their move. And it's very sad because EB could really nail HT with the details on this one. But we really don't need it if it's gonna be not chrome, just a silver painted plastic like they did on their BD Arnie. So... I don't know. I have no information if EB will release their ENDO, but there was few teasers. That's why I've got the release from HotToys even thou I don't like it's scale hit.

So...finally a good camera.
Frist days went good I think, built a little mock up. Not much done with the settings, excellent ones in the first place, just played a little with lights, same on the EB BD, prolly upload those tomorrow. Came out great too.
Just need to get a little steadier...otherwise...I´m already pretty happy.
Hope you enjoy.

How do you reverse the collar pistons? Is there a photo step-by-step?

 

[franpincho]

I just can't believe I passed on this guy.

No need to.
It's very easy. You can just take a normal screwdriver, put some papertowel around it and a hammer.
Put the screwdriver at the outer bolts, where they go into the shoulder and just start hitting gently.
Every endo is different so you need to find out how hard you can hit by yourself.
then just reverse the pistons, refit the bolts and then you need to see again how hard you can hit them (now, of course, you need to put a papertowel on top of the bolts) to make them fit again.
Voila.


Thx fellas. Think there will come much more great pics.

Too bad there's no 1/6 scale available now

Which pistons is it that aren't correct? I hadn't noticed.

 

[EndoSickness]

The collarbone pistons are reversed...

Thanks for the tip but then when I read the hammer part, I'm afraid to even try. lol

I didnt have to use a hammer when I took out the collar pistons and reversed them. I posted earlier in this thread that I used a small wire clipper tool to lift up the collar bolts. Then you will gently force back in the bolts by hand to secure them.

I regret selling this figure but i needed the cash. Maybe I'll pick it up again one day provided the price isn't too inflated.

I'm happy enough with mine.

That does not look even close to the HT 1/4....Neca?

 

[EndoSickness]

Yeah, it´s the NECA 1/4.
He said this one would suffice.
I had it and I have to say...now...that I own this chromed piece of terminator glory:
The NECA one looks like crap!

 

[VenusV]

im on the fence on this. will the exclusive version be worth the extra cash ? its about 100$ more at my area. both units are MISB.

 

[EndoSickness]

Not for me it wasn´t.
Especially since it´s supposed to be the T1 endoskeleton with any rifle at all...

Depends on if you want to use the second rifle, that is a big difference. I like the 2 rifle look myself so I would go for the EX.

Agree. Anyone who says NECA is anywhere near has never seen them side by side, although it should blow it away costing 10x more. I started with a NECA and sold it immediately after I got this guy.
