Sideshow 1:1 Terminator Endoskeleton - Combat Model

[MML]

I feel a Johnny Cash tune coming on... "I took it 1 piece at a time, and it didnt cost me a dime...."

But seriously, I know if I bought something like that I will end up having to pay 14% in taxes at the border which would come out to about 840 bucks more. I very highly doubt I could weasel that thing across the bridge without them noticing
Or I could BS them and say it cost me 1000 bucks or something, but knowing my luck they would find out and I would have to pay double the fees on what I didnt declare plus a fine. (I know somebody that has happened to)

Like you said, its an investment, If you buy one youre never gonna have to sell it for less than you paid for it. One that Solidsnake seen in Toronto was sold for 10,000. Not a bad return on your money, I would never sell something like that though. Thats the ideal centerpiece for any movie room.

Damn... no small, quiet backroads you could use!!?

I know what you mean about not selling it, I never would; it's going to go in the home theatre (whenever it gets built!) but a friend saw it today for the first time and suggested I could hire it out to shops or whatever as a display piece to put in their windows, but I'd be terrified of it getting damaged.

Amazing Item, I hope you're as happy with it,( As I imagine I would be, if I owned one) sounds like you are... I think your friend's idea is great, but I would be affraid of damage as well!

So does the statue have any moving parts/articulation to alter the pose at all?

Cheers bud!
Well the gun arm moves left and right through roughly 40 degrees, but not up and down. The other arm doesn't move at all. The head also rotates through roughly 45 degrees or so. That's about it unfortunately! I was hoping he would be a bit more posable but no luck :-(

 

[Grange Wallis]

I'd have been awesome if you the torso could rotate as well, like the opening shots of T2 after the first endo crushes the skull!

But atleast there is some movement!

Man I could never hire him out, like you said, I would cry if he was damaged.

It's funny that were are all concerned about something being Damaged with it has been damaged on purpose already!

Lol. yeah, he's been through post apocalyptic wars; fought against the human resistance with their plasma weapons; then some kid comes up to him in the shop and breaks a finger off.

That is such an AMAZING piece! You lucky bugger P1XAR!

Sorry to nit-pick, but are the side chest pistons on the wrong angle. I've only just noticed this on all the skeleton picture of the SSC replicas.

 

[P1X4R]

from what i've read i hear they are but i never bothered to adjust them. here's some old Cinemaquette pics. too bad this is not 1:1
