^^ Cool, what's the body?

 

[rjszar]

It's the new Phicen seamless.

It's the new Phicen seamless.

How tall is the body, same as the 136? Could be a tad shorter as the 136 wears boots of course.

Thanks.

The body is very short. Someone on one of the other forums stated it would represent a man 5'5", the reason being is that Phicen sort of cheated and just used the female skeleton. I didn't bother measuring because I knew it was short, and I knew I would be posing it crouched. It would not work well in a standing pose.

OK thanks for the info, yeah if you leave him in that pose it doesn't matter. The proportions look great though, Arnie was pretty jacked in T1.

Thats Fantastic! Do you have any other photos of that pose from different angles? Iv been thinking of making an arrival Terminator figure.

Here is the actual prop from the movie, I'm surprised there aren't any burn marks or anything, considering he was in an explosion:

i've seen them, and i think you are not exactly right - there are burns. check it. both his shoulders are black in the front, and the chain is partially black too and lost its shine. that's soot. on the back the leather part is scorched in some places from little fires and temperature from when he was laying on a windshield, burning on his back.
i think people sometimes, like in my case (but i've seen it later again), make more burns of toy's jacket just because toy material takes burns a lot better, changing color into yellow, getting holes fast, getting natural soot, etc.

i even gave a too much damaged jacket to the repairs scene (considering he went through more damage by that time) and went lighter on the walking variant for the second time. but still opened the damaged forearm because it's just cool

Cool shadow pic.

I actually still haven't done any BDing of Tech Noir jackets. Eventually I'll get around to it.

 

[shells075]

Love the setup P.

The 136 is still on of my all time fav figs. Its really the fig that got me collecting HT figs in the first case.

How much would one of these figures be worth now?

Although I'd go for a used one, since you'll know whether or not the neck plug is broken. I had two that had it, and a lot of guys around here reported it happening to theirs too after a few years. I bought a new one from a fellow freak on here, and it was MIB sealed and the plug had a gouge in it and crumbled. Easy fix though if you have a spare plug.

Patience and time. I have bought almost all my hot toys for close to retail. Even DX Joker and Sparrow.

I recently bought a used Tech Noir and discovered that the plastic on the neck plug was crumbled. How might I go about finding a new neck plug and repairing?

Thanks

Oh, you!

it's a common problem, and another problem is with leg sockets for pegs. they can break if you take the boots off an on.

I almost want to buy them just in case of an emergency. Luckily, I only needed to replace one adapter for my one 136.
