ASMUS - The Conner Clothing Set / Scaled Teenager Body - T2 John Connor

[DioramaMaker]

I don't know if anyone mentioned it, but I suspect this is a way for them to capitalize a little extra on their Hobbit body mold.

The sculpt looks a wee bit like Tilda Swinson.

I think asmus likes to get a bit shifty sometimes. Two of their licensed figure on their site are just called "night guard" and "pet detective" instead of actually naming the franchise or character. They may try the same thing here. Just call him like "future leader" or something like that.

They are messing with a Hot Toys license though. A little different.

It would piss me off no end if Hot Toys steps in here. They have no intention of making a John Connor themselves so my message to them as a collector and Terminator fan would be a pre-emptive ''STFU''.

Paint looks very bad.

Caine's sculpt is nice.

Yup. Odd that HT hasn't made the very reason for T2, to protect Kid John.

The Connor Set

I expect when the factory head comes out it'll be a lot cleaner paint apps

 

[cmiller99]

Horrendous paint apps but the sculpt underneath is very good.

 

[a-dev]

Anyone here ever order direct from Asmus?

Something has gone terribly wrong with that paint, the sculpt looked so good.

Curiously the kit is sorted under "figure body" but the body is nowhere to be found in the pictures. I want to order just the nude body without the rest of the stuff. I mean I could easily go for the Connor set too, but that paint is scaring me.

Anyone here ever order direct from Asmus?

I got my Ace Ventura from them. They ship using EMS.

 

[anwe]

Anyone in Europe that can say if they're "customs friendly"?

 

[a-dev]

^a wonder of mine too.

i went through purchase steps (but didn't get a paypal invoice in the end).
on the last page it says:

THE CONNOR SET --------- PRE-ORDER NOW $99.95 USD FREE SHIPPING WORLD WIDE

THE 1/6 SCALED TEENAGER BODY --------- PRE-ORDER NOW $ 30 USD FREE SHIPPING WORLD WIDE

p.s. oh i see now - didn't mark the checkbox "i agree to terms and conditions", that's why there was no bill in the end. now it's done.

I can't even seem to get that far. ''E-mail address does not appear to be valid''. My email address is entirely valid and is the one I've used for many many years.

If you're on Facebook I recommend messaging them. If not, they are "Asmus" here on the board. The rep's name is George and he is very friendly and usually quick to respond.

is it your paypal address?

 

[a-dev]

It is my paypal address but it is being refused at the earliest stage where I'm simply entering my living address and shipping address, before I even get to the payment stage.

 

[P.]

then it' really a tech problem.
i thought that may be they verified email with paypal and you used another email. then only a direct contact will decide it as suggested above
===============
if the head doesn't look good painted in the end, i will display him from a side, together with Sarah Connor and my "i'm losing hair from all this stress" figure.

 

[rjszar]

Just ordered mine. Had a few issues with site trying to connect to papal, but it worked in the end.
