Evilface's decals are pre-cut stickers that you apply to the stand, then smooth out the bubbles. He can also do name plate decals that you stick on top of the HT ones. Once applied they look pretty damn similar to an official Hot Toys stand. And they run about $5.

As I needed (ok, wanted) new stands with crotch grabbers anyway I went ahead and ordered those 2 stands from M.Y.Online. Expensive but hey, this **** is always expensive for me. They don't seem to be plentiful anymore and being a guy of little patience I don't feel like waiting around.

However, I needed 3 stands, not just two so I think I'll see about getting the T1 ''Tech Noir'' T-800 decal from Evilface to finish it out.

I need T-1000 stands aswell but they are similarly high priced and although it's much of a muchness if I ultimately end up buying them anyway I still just couldn't quite bring myself to order those at the same time, especially with the rest of my expenditure on MMS238 parts the past few days.

Got it finally, pretty awesome. The seller could of better examined it though, the BD head has paint rubs on the forehead and the slide to the pistol feels flimsy... unless that's common. Either way, I'll end up replacing some of this stuff with my second 136 I get.

Almost looks like he's got a gash in his eyebrow for some reason. Although it only shows up in harsh lighting, I think it's a slight paint rub.

"These are brand new; we just got them in. That's a good gun. Just touch the trigger, the beam comes on and you put the red dot where you want the bullet to go. You can't miss. Anything else?"

Congrats on the pickup and nice pics, Snake! There's a leanness, a ferocity in the headsculpt that I just don't detect in the 238. Despite the clunkiness of the boots and whatnot, I think this is the better of the T1 figs.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Ferocity is a great way to put it. I think it really captures the essence of the character.

I purchased mine used too. It wasn't in perfect condition either. Main thing being a ding on the back of head.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Yeah I'm not going to complain to the guy about it, I just don't think he wasn't a nal about checking the condition on it like I would be. I'm going to try get a second this week, it's "new" allegedly. We'll see.

Very nice Snake!!! Great pics buddy & fantastic shots right there. Anything else? Phased plasma rifle in the 40watt range.

Damn, I really have to stop clicking on HT Terminator threads. No Arnies makes me a sad panda.

Congrats Snake. Really a 'must' figure.

I'm gonna break it out again....''you cannot escape your destiny....''

Come on, dev, talk of destiny again? No, just no. You've got to get back to your T2 roots.

Star Wars is actually as much my roots as Terminator, hence all the quoting I can do. Although it did fade somewhat while Terminator came more to the foreground. I won't be buying Hot Toys Star Wars, way too much of a commitment there.

Thanks, and just what you see pal!

Thanks to you too. My destiny is to own all Hot Toys T-800s, with both displays.

Congrats Snake, great choice picking up the Technoir, one of hot toys best ever

I will say that this and the new version are both must haves for terminator fans, here a couple of older pic of mine

After looking at these old pics, I think I will give the technoir the new shotgun and pose him in the "wrong" look when my second set arrives of the MMS238

You, like Yankeesfanboy, are now....mine.

HERRRONNGG!

also just an observation but when the terminator asks for a phased plasma rifle in a 40 watt range its a bit odd.
Doesn't a complex machine like the terminator not recognise what time period hes in. Seems like a very basic mistake to make.

 

[Snake Plissken]

You, like Yankeesfanboy, are now....mine.

I wish I bought it sooner. What kept me was that they didn't release a Police Station version... and now they did.
