I love Arnold. He's an American success story in every sense of the word; physical perfection during his body-building days, world-wide super-star of the silver screen, political success as Governor of California, etc ...

Nowadays, I find his current film work a tongue-in-cheek mockery of this 80s super-star status films. You know what though? Arnold isn't stupid. He knows it too. But that won't stop him from making films, earning millions of dollars, and keeping his name in the spot-light. Arnold showcased his comedic side in films like Twins and Kindergarten Cop decades ago and he's still doing it with this current crop of films and laughing all the way to the bank.
If anyone disagrees, does anyone recall when T3 was announced and Cameron wasn't directing. Arnold read the script and thought it was awful and called Cameron to ask his advice. Cameron's advice, "Just do it. Who cares if it sucks. They're willing to pay you $15 million to do it."
I'm pretty sure that's been Arnold's mentality ever since.

:lecture:exactly:
 
when are we going to hear what the crappy idea is for a figure on this line? I swear if it's an old Arnold instead of a diecast endoskeleton I am going on a Hot Toys strike
 
Yeah, asking for an endo from this line is a waste. One assumes most people want a T1 or T2 endo not this redesign. Though, to the hardcores, whatever HT puts out as a T1 or T2 endo is likely to be a 'redesign' anyway.

You got that right, definitely a waste. The redesign is a poor update compared to the perfect design of the original!!
 
I want most the endo from T1-T2 first and foremost, however the only two figures I would bite on from Genesys is old man T-800 and the Endo, nether one of those are must haves but I would still want them if Hot Toys makes them. The Design of the new endo is less than impressive but I wouldn't mind have it along with my T600's an T700, that said they better make the original T-800 first:lecture

I agree, but the diecast endo from this new line is the only thing I would buy and that's pushing it. Obviously HT isn't going to realize the cash cow they have awaiting if they did the T1 or T2 diecast endoskeleton in 1/6 scale.

The only figure I'm getting from this line is Old T-800 Arnold. That's it. That's all I want.
 
i wonder if they ever return those V-shaped neck muscles to their right place in movies, like it was in T1.

Nothing beats the Original T1 Endoskeleton!!! That's the one i really want an 100% exact replica in 1:6

The only design that truly looks like a horrifying killer, not al the other ones that look like smiling sciencefiction robots :( It's like they went from the hulk to human form...
 
Endoskeletons now just look goofy as ****. HT QS002 included. Sadly it seems to have become the standard for god only knows why.

Don't see us getting one from Hot Toys. Maybe the only thing we can hope for is if someone gets the license to do a 1:6 statue.
