Hot Toys - MMS 111 - John Connor (Final Battle Version)- spec + hi-res pics

[ChaserFan]

I am amazed at this figure! It's much better than the one in those pics I posted in May! I can't believe we're getting a 1/6th scale hydrobot! WOOT! And don't start dissing it just yet; just like JC1 & Marcus, there will be HS changes for sure.
But I am so pumped right now!!!!

I Thought kyle was at least 16 or 17 at the time of T:S?

Kyle was 16 in terminator salvation.

He looks great, fantastic details loving the shoulder keypad and the Hydrobot is the icing and cherry on top!
Any ideas on price yet, with the Hydro-bot I can see this being a tad bit more expensive.

I dont think they will do a headsculpt change for this one, since they used the same sculpt from the first JC. This probably saves hot toys loads of money doing it this way. And there never was headsculpt changes for JC.

i like it - will probably pick it up. i am also impressed with the number of responses to this thread already.

In terms of the scars they will; people b****ing about how they're not accurate. HT revises nearly all their headsculpts before release.

Why did they hang the innocent T-600? They should have hung McG instead!

This new Connor is sooooooo bought! I can't believe how much above my expectation this figure turned out to be. WOW!

no improved head sculpt = no thanks

Well this is my 1st experience with HT. lesson #1 never buy the 1st release as the 2nd version always has more accessories

Yup, Hot Toys is always re-releasing another variant of the same figures. It's turned me off of collecting their products. After the 13th Joker variant I think it's about time.

 

[boochydog]

i could see posing this figure in this pose, although i wish the headsculpt had this smirk.

Hot Toys needs to darken the color of the jacket. It should be more of a faded canvas color instead of green.

May just be the intense lighting the photographer for Hot Toys uses. I bet it would be much darker in person.

Yep. Thus endeth the lesson.

Surprised to see this thread wasn't started by Wookster but well done Shandy Man.

This is bought by me. I don't really care that the head is very similar to V1, the fresh cuts on the face are cool. The head kinda does look small but I'm sure it'll be no more so than the first head.

Outfit and accessories look incredible.

 

[Toast]

I definitely like the clothes on the first one way better but these accessories and the base are awesome!

 

[MaulFan]

I'm surprised people are talking about the whole never buy the first one thing, I really don't see this as outdoing the first, you're stuck with the scarred head, or spending another $50+ on eBay to get the clean one, because that's what folks'll charge for it now, the costume is extremely different, the only "improvements are a more fitting base and the hydrobot, but the John himself is about equal to the first to me.

I think it looks great, but I wish the scarring would be more deep as it was in the film.

Also, new TR Blog shots.

 

[a-dev]

Well, as I said before, I have no problem owning 2 of the same character however I suppose I can see where people would wish that Hot Toys would announce in advance the figures they intend to make. This would have allowed the people who preferred the outfit from later in the film to wait for that version knowing that it was on the way instead of buying version 1 "just in case". Also the gun mix-up is annoying if you have no wish to buy both versions.

The upside is it has a Q4 release, which I believe they can meet, the sculpt looks the same just with a painted scar on it, costume doesn't seem as complex as v1, this figure looks about Marcus level and he was just about on time.

I hope they meet that release date also. I cant wait to have this figure. My only question is, where is the pda?

EDIT: Why does JC need sploches of blood on his face?

I'd say not seeing the PDA in those shots confirms it's a Toy Hunters Ex., hopefully it'll also be a Sideshow Exclusive, this figure will probably be hinted in this weeks newsletter and go up for sale next week.

As for the blood splotches, havent seen T:S since it came out, but there's probably some there and it adds to him looking beat up, I'm fine with them.
