Official NECA Terminator Thread

[a-dev]

I feel I'm the only one that asks him the proper questions on there.

Thanks for that. It's otherwise all too quiet about Terminator on their twitter.

So what did you guys think of the TDF trailer....

it's like Neca reuse of parts crap.

Yeah it pretty much put my expectations back into the gutter. They were mildly up because of Cameron and Linda Hamilton's involvement but after the trailer it seems to be a mashup of ideas and sequences from Terminator Salvation and Terminator Genisys. I suspect this is another ''real Terminator 3'' for the scrapheap.

Haha, I just didn't get any 'feels' from it. As usual they gave away the twist of the 'bad' Terminators abilities. That skinny blonde bird is like a rehash of Salvation's Marcus Wright but is self aware. I didn't like the way she flung herself onto the back of the truck it was odd. I wanted a darker trailer with a narrator and only quick glimpses of scenes like the old trailers. And where is John Connor! The character the whole past 2 films are based around!

 

[a-dev]

Seems like the younger girl has replaced John Connor. And for some reason she's got 3 protectors? Mackenzienator, Sarah Connor AND Arnie? Should be no problem for them, judging by the trailer. All I see is this new villain Terminator getting his ass kicked repeatedly.

I think she will be knocked up by her bf and Sarah and Grace will be protecting her and the unborn child because the baby will be Juan Connor. Quote ne in November when it turns out to be the case.

Hahaha 'Juan Connor' that cracked me up xD

I just wish if they got linda back they could of got Eddy furlong back , It would have been worth it too pay for a personal trainer and life coach or something to get him back into shape to make an epic comeback as the one and only John Connor!

 

[snoop101]

He's too full blown, probably a horrible actor at this point too. Linda was fantastic in the first two films, but even she delivers her lines in the trailer like she doesn't give a damn. my theory is that there going to kill John Connor off shortly after the events of T2. I guess since they changed the future by blowing up cyberdyne, they altered the timeline. The new "savior" is the Mexican girl.

I'm not gonna even bother watching it. After the Predator abomination I promised myself to ignore any new iteration from Alien/Predator/Terminator franchises. The rule applies also for the toys in these lines. I'll get the Resurrection figs and the Ultimate Wolf/Predalien if they ever come and that's it for me.

You're ignoring the new terrible iterations and buying product from the old terrible iterations? No offence but that sounds hypocritical.

 

[a-dev]

I wouldn't use the word hypocrite in this context but there's a logical inconsistency, one which I'm wrestling with myself. I too am buying the Resurrection line despite hating that movie; I've bought AvP figures and will buy AvP:R figures despite thinking those movies are ***t.....so why am I not buying the figures from The Predator...

Hahaha 'Juan Connor' that cracked me up xD

I dunno bout that. Even if he cleaned up, the adult Edward Furlong would be as unbelievable a 'great military leader' as Nick Stahl was IMO.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Jason Clarke was great and he got assimilated!

 

[P.]

So what did you guys think of the TDF trailer....

this is almost as old as i am.
i don't see anything even 1% as epic as this in that 2019 trailer.

Ah yeah I guess you got me there, just a shame he couldn't bulk up muscle-wise grow a beard and cut his hair to be like his future war version. That would be cool because then Dark Fate could show how he got that scar. I am just dreaming haha. It is a damn shame ol'Eddy went the way he did as he did do some good films after T2 and I saw him in a role a few years ago in the film Assault on Wallstreet. For the small role it was he was good!

Dude I agree , those are my FAVOURITE scenes in the movie! The music and everything is just intense! The way sarah knocks her drink off the table as the T-800 walks by in the club and the music kind of echos, that **** is just magic. The police station scene is just *****ing intense and brutal, shows EXACTLY what a t-800 is built for. Amazing stuff I love that ****! It is older than me I was born in '87! I thank my dad for letting me watch Arnolds movies as a kid in the early '90s. Terminator obsessed!

Oh just picked up the ponytail and military cap versions of Mcfarlanes Sarah Connor figure. I have all 3 of them now. Just wish there was a Pescadero and Tech Noir Sarah Connor figures!!!

Before calling me a hypocrite, ask yourself what is the reason you'll be buying the same figures. Despite their ****** movie origins, they still meant something. And again I wish all new releases were half tolerable as Resurrection or the concept of Wolf predator (didn't say AVPR).

 

[dukefett]

My own choosieness is what's keeping me from having any Predators or Terminators in my collection. I wasn't collecting when the originals were released and have zero desire for anything from the sequels.

 

[zombieshane]

Hope the DF figures debut at SDCC, the Rev9 looks so dope

I won't be buying them.

Yeah he looks so cool in his yellow flannel shirt and khaki trousers I'd love that figure to go with my 1/10 scale taco stand..... Worst dressed and least intimidating 'Terminator' ever! (Figure too!)

 

[zombieshane]

Yeahh, I mean the endoskeleton lol

(T1) is almost as old as i am.

The McFarlane ones are a bit dated but I still have them, hopefully intact - for Terminator action figure 'historical' purposes. I haven't displayed them since NECA came out with theirs.

Yeahh, I mean the endoskeleton lol

This Rev9 seems a lot like the T-3000 or whatever John Connor became in Genisys.
