This is my old girl. I got it on Ebay about 10 years or so ago (perhaps even longer!). It's a different sculpt to some of the other ones I've seen. It was made by a guy called '3DWizart', I think. When I first ordered it, it came in about a million broken pieces. Someone had a real happy time...
So mine arrived today. It's very...brown.
Rather disappointing, really. It deviates a lot from the promo shots. They went very brown on the transparent layer to the point where you can't really see any internal details. I've also noticed some minor signs of glue, where bits have been stuck on...
Congrats! Did you order from BBTS? Just wondering if they've started shipping yet as the ETA was May. I'm in the UK and took the plunge - could not pass it up. I just hope I don't get stung by customs!
Lovely figure, the headsculpt is on point! The body is a letdown though, very cheap. I might try swapping out with a Truetype or an Enterbay Bruce Lee (as I have seen someone do already). Shame because the headsculpt and accessories are very nice (I got the egg and Alien head - both very nicely...
A seller called myfigureschoice2008 is selling set B on Ebay for $210. Seems steep compared to the HK dollar price ($210 is almost £160 - with free P&P, but customs charges might push that to almost £200). I'm so unsure...looks fantastic, but the price isn't right for me. Has anyone found this...
In regards to peeling.
It's a mixture of both the skin and the camo - it's mainly the skin, leaving a lighter shade behind. And the black camo is part of the skin tone paint job. I feel the more it's touched or brushed against the fabric, the worse it's going to get. Does anyone know of a way...
I've already got a small spot on mine where the paint has rubbed off, on the upper left arm. It's almost as though the paint is a translucent layer on top of the rubber, so it practically 'peels' away like if you get PVA glue on your fingers. Very annoying.
Re: Hot Toys-The Terminator-MMS 238-T-800-(Battle Damaged Version) Collectible Figure
Amazzzzzing figure! Just a quick question for my UK brethren - How much do Sideshow usually charge for delivery to the UK for a typical Hot Toys? Their shipping estimate calculator isn't working for me :( This...
I have a great fix for the loose arms, guys. It worked for me anyway! I removed the screw holding the arm in place and applied a ball of putty/tack to the ridged connector inside. Push the arm into place again, tighten the screw and the arm becomes stiff yet movable and can be posed freely...
Dude, from my experience their Battle Damaged T-800 is the one suffering from the most problems.

I saw some talk about Enterbay QC issues, so I thought I'd give my two cents. Head over to the Enterbay Battle Damaged T-800 thread to see some comparison pictures between different batches. If you're getting Robo, I suggest getting him early. It's evident that Enterbay drop their standards the...
