Another one of you guys eh?

In some cases I share your points of view but honestly whats with all the Hot Toys bashing and NECAshipping from you guys using the universal translators?? How come you ALL have the exact same opinions?

Same person I reckon.

Yes, you can tell with certainty because every single time he not only posts to complain about the likeness on HT Terminator figures, he also always posts that he wants an 18" Predator figure.

He has to be borderline retarded at the very least, I say. I don't mean that as an insult, I mean literally there has to be something mentally wrong with him. He's almost like a spambot in his consistency.

How does one quantify like"li"ness? 75%, ok, 66%, sure but 62%

While I'm impressed at the size of the eyelashes and doing them, on some figures they're almost too noticable for males, I'd actually just not even paint them at all for male figures.

Agreed, I even have a little improvement to this:
My T-1000 has his lashes not complete, but a little transparent.
Looks perfect from the far AND the near.
But in this shot...Arnold´s sculpt is sheer awesome.
And I do think him and the T-1000 are not equal.
I think Arnold is far better.
But that´s fanboy and opinion stuff, right?

well either way it looks super realistic....

I can't agree more! I felt so satisfied that I bought it after taking these photos.

 

[I am Ironman]

Jeez thats an excellent shot! I need a new camera.

Thanks! I used a new camera too! Haha...

Congrat's Exoticlex...that is one sweet T-800 you have there!

Really hope HT's gives us this version in the future but I would be completely happy with yours if not. What did it set you back to finish the look?

Let's see. The minigun was $10. The bandolier and grenades and the M79 were $23. And the gloves were $3. So close to $40 after shipping.

I am telling you HT heard my suggestions and hired those Chinese artists that can write a whole poem on a single seed of rice!!! Look at the eye lashes. These are details you just can't enjoy with the naked eye and what makes photographing these opening up a whole new level of enjoyment. Pics are great with good lighting and likely a good camera as well. Carr to share your setup and gear/lens?

No problem. I used canon 7D with 50mm lens and a 2x extension tube. Which SLR body doesn't really matter. Its quite difficult to take because the depth of field is very shallow. I took one too for the DX02 and posted in its thread. Take a look if you are interested.

Nice! Excellent addons.

Could be In terms of sculpt, they're about on par for me. I'm leaning toward Arnold's but by just a bit.

But as an overall package, T-1000 wins hands-down. It has a plethora of accessories, including an extra head and uniform that can enable you to make another figure. Then again, T-800 is a much more feasible cash cow than the T-1000 will ever be, which could be the reason why HT didn't supply it with a lot of accessories. They'd much rather release a different version.

I know a lot of people seem to like the Blade hands but, for my money, I prefer the hands from the Sideshow Cobra figures. They're fairly accurate, pop right onto the HT pegs, and...this is the most important part...can usually be found for far less than the aforementioned Hot Toys option.

What cobra figures are those actually from, boot.

They look just perfect...

 

[persuazion]

well I just picked this up from Hastings for 147.00....lets see if it actually goes through.

 

[CyberVillain]

Good price, i got mine the day it was announced for 143 dollars.

The gloves in that picture happen to be from the Cobra Sniper, but I'm 99% sure all of the Cobra hands are the same. As a matter of fact, my T-800 wears Firefly gloves and they look (as far as I can tell from pictures) identical to the ones linked above.

Like I said, they're usually pretty cheap, not to mention surprisingly accurate.

There could be something wrong with him, not that his opinions are innately wrong - I even agree on some counts - but his repetitive ways, setting up multiple accounts, going extreme in some of them and getting those ones banned, coming back with another one - not exactly normal behaviour is it.
