Hot Toys Terminator 2 1:6 Sarah Connor

[Voorhees27]

I think it looks really good but there is still something off with her eyes. I also agree that the hair colour needs more blonde. Regardless i'll get this duh) but I was expecting something more jaw dropping.

If the T-1000 turns out even better than Arnie I will be back on that high again.

Well, because I know you're all eagerly awaiting my comments...

Here's My Take:

New Sculpt is much better. But what I see is Pescadero Sarah, not Desert, Cyberdyne or FB Sarah in her expression. It looks kind of sad and listless to me like she was still under medication. I think they used Pescadero as reference as those scenes were lit better. Anyway, her bangs only looked that way at Pescadero. Not sure how this sculpt will work for FB stuff. The arms are better as well.

Hair Color: WRONG. Why do they keep painting it Auburn/Reddish brown. I wonder what Movie they're watching.

1st Sculpt: 6.5/10
2nd Sculpt 8/10

Love to see a Devil666 Hair Repaint. Go for it D.

I'm convinced that when HT's plan to make just one version of a specific character they try creating a certain scene but with other elements to give you the complete package (eg. shotgun, bangs). Not sure if that makes sense, its early

The resculpted head looks much better!

Looks a bit like Mick Jagger.

I see they've changed their small print compared to their regular.

Thats what my mate said when I showed him. Hair needs to be lighter. Sort that out and it will look so much better.

I already did it.

As for the look of this figure, I think people would be more impressed if HT did a similar shot of the face with the split bangs on, looking at film images, yes she had bangs but they were more thinned out than t his look, I think part of what looks strange about the head to people is how much and how thickly the hair covers her forehead.

Very eloquently put and worthy of being somebodies quote

Hehe! Thank you.

Yea my biggest issue is with the hair too. It's too damn monotone. And it really fails to capture the tormented emotions that Linda Hamilton sends out in the movie.

Only thing that is throwing if off for me is the hair colour. Sweet figure though in all other areas, if I could afford it i'd buy it no problemo.

I was really looking for a case to skip this one (to save money), and I thought that was going to be easy but this looks perfect to me!

Somehow a young (Furlong) John Connor seems like a necessary accessory for both this and the T-800. But that's never going to happen.

Likeness looks stronger in Tommy Richardson's work, as expected.

Agreed. His pictures are awesome! The figure looks great to me!

 

[snoop101]

For me, the ultimate Sarah T2 figure would have this facial expression and the hair down, ready to kick T-1000 ass.

I thought you were joking!

Sean, pls repost. All I see is a X .

 

[MaulFan]

Can't do anything about it pjam, either it'll show for you or not.

 

[Platty]

Wow, the likeness does look better in Tommy's shots.

Stunning figure!

That's all fine and dandy but at $150, we shouldn't have to do studio lighting and specific poses to have the likeness resemble the character the figure's supposed to be portraying.

 

[Geil]

For likeliness in pictures you kinda have to know what you are doing but in-hand is totally different. I find that in-hand things always look better especially since it is really just 1:6.

 

[plasmid303]

Tommy usually takes a load of pictures with and without studio lighting. Looking forward to them.

 

[Centrocal]

The neck is still too thin.
