Attakus Terminator3 pictures

[cap70]

Just took some pics, not the best, but you can have an idea. I was going to post in the other thread started by C1eaN, but it's getting too loaded already.
I really love this thing, likeness is excellent(much better personally!), details are incredible. Love the base. A very solid piece overall. :buttrock:
Enough talking!

hope you enjoyed the pics.

[Gruson]

Very nice!

Mine should be here this week. The face is not pefect but overall I like it a lot.

Now, is the whole thing a statue (sculpted)??? It looks great, especially for $300 shipped!

Gruson,
Trust me, the pics doesn't make justice to his face. It looks much, much better personally. Looks kind of washed in the pics.
Yes, the whole statue it's sculpted(minus the gun's "belt")

[3clipZ]

Looks great. :)
I like the "leather" details in the jacket and pants.

A very nice piece. :thumbs2:

[C1eaN]

THANKS for the lots of detailed pics bro.....can't wait now....woo hoo...

[cap70]

thanks guys.
C1eaN, I bet you are going to love this thing, bro. :)

[P1X4R]

NICE!! thanks for the pics cap70! great price too! looks like they're sculpting the base now. usually it's just a black one. do the sunglasses come off?

[Gruson]

I got mine today.

The box was beat to hell. Even the actual Attakus box was smashed in and the styrofoam was cracked and showing.

Luckily, Arnold was in one piece.

This is an INCREDIBLE looking piece and a keeper for sure. Awesome job Attakus.

This is a must for any Terminator fan IMO.

[Zurbaran1]

Cap, awesome pics. Looks great. :thumbs2:
But you have to watch that reflect-o-porn in the Art print. This is a wholesome site :laugh:

[Bullseye]

Hey glad this arrived Cap. Vey nice art piece also. That went for big money if i recall.

Thanks, Bulls. Got the T3 print a while back. Paid way bellow retail for it.

[cap70]

NICE!! thanks for the pics cap70! great price too! looks like they're sculpting the base now. usually it's just a black one. do the sunglasses come off?

Thanks, P1X! I tried to remove the sunglasses but I dunno if it can be done. Maybe it can, but I was scary to break the thing.

ah, probably not then. don't force try. :) i must have been thinking of the cinemaquette version.

[cap70]

Dude, you're staring too hard and missing the big picture.

Yup. Actuallly, it gets pretty obvious after a while

[Gir]

Looks pretty nice overall, but the face is clearly off. The likeness isn't bad, but it's not that good either.

[Alias]

The face is far better then expected! Great statue and nice pics! :buttrock:

[C1eaN]

Gru/Cap,

I just noticed that Gru's pic next to Vader2 seems like Arnie is in a bigger scale. I realize it is lower and closer but that didn't seem to make up for the difference. Is it just a perspective issue or is Arnie bigger?


EDIT:: I just looked on the Attakus site and they are both 17.3"...hmmmm

[cap70]

Gru/Cap,

Perspective, C1eaN. It's the same scale. Vader it's just a little bigger. The T3 have the same size on paper, but I think the height of the gun counts. So Vader have a tad bigger body. If you see Gruson's pictures, the Terminator also looks bigger than SS 007(a 23" statue).

[optimus]

Great pictures guys!
I think it looks great and the face allso looks good.
Thinking of this one myselfe. We'll see what happens...

[Gruson]

He looks even better in person.

The flash from the camera takes away from it IMO.

I love the piece, it's even better than I thought it would be.

[Gir]

you need contacts...that looks just like arnie...

No...I just tell it like it is. You can pretend that it looks perfect, but it's not. The Cinemaquette figure has a better likeness, but it's not perfect either.

[Bullseye]

The Cinemaguette is twice or three times the price if not more. Hell for that money i'd want a box of cohibas too.:)

[Gruson]

While it's not perfect, I agree, it's DAMN good and a fine piece.

I believe you like a lot of the GG pieces, right Gir? It's a LOT more perfect than those for sure. :)

[Gir]

I actually don't own any Gentle Giant collectibles featuring characters with their faces exposed for that very reason. I think GG is getting better though.

It seems like most studios have trouble with human faces. I think it's more of a natural consequence of being human than a fault of the sculptors. In day to day life, we must be capable of distinguishing between hundreds or thousands of people, and we do that primarily by recalling a ridiculous amount of minute details about people's faces.

[Gruson]

I agree Gir, humans are tough. :)

To me at least, I think Sideshow has done the best. The most recent Luke and Han pictures look really good....and I am VERY picky.

http://img160.exs.cx/img160/3338/snapshot002287uz.jpg

[Gir]

I'd have to see more pics of Luke, but I saw a bunch of shots of Han Solo a while back, and I was definitely impressed.

[C1eaN]

No...I just tell it like it is. You can pretend that it looks perfect, but it's not. The Cinemaquette figure has a better likeness, but it's not perfect either.


I eagerly await your list of "perfect" things in the world. To make it easier for you, I will allow any item in the physical world we occupy to be on the list but it must be perfect.

Since I can assume your list will comprise of....well....nothing....why is bringing the face sculpts lack of 'perfect' status to this thread? If nothing is 'perfect' why does this come as a surprise to you?

Let me say that as a future (and very excited) owner of this piece I am not being defensive of the sculpt but at my limit with posts discussing the obvious ad nauseam. Only Arnie loks like Arnie but since this started out as a block of sculpey I'd say...well done.

[Gir]

:rolleyes:

Thanks for nitpicking my post even though you knew perfectly well what I meant. It's obviously up to you to decide how much error you are willing to reconcile.

Let me know after you get it, C1eaN. I will send someone there to fix your jaws. :D :thumbs2:

[Gruson]

Gir,

I am curious, which statues do you own and think look good?

I am very picky myself but this Terminator piece is very nice. If it wasn't, I would have sold it right away.

I also love the Attakus Vader and Maul statues. RWOS is perfect from Sideshow as well. The new MR AT-AT (with snow base) is amazing IMO. Even Koto sandtroopers look nice...

Anyway, just wondering....to each their own but I am curious.

[Bullseye]

Gruson aren't you selling off alot of your LoTR pieces and some of the Attakus SW pieces?

[Gir]

[QUOTE=Gruson]Gir,

[QUOTE]

I don't really want to get into that. It's all personal preference. I am not willing or able to overlook certain flaws of this statue that others apparently are willing or able to overlook. For other statues, the opposite may be true. I'm sure there are statues that I find pleasing to the eye that you don't care for.

Someone said this statue looks just like Arnold, and I disagreed. It's as simple as that.

Just so I am clear...you want your assessment of others likes and dislikes to be respected but are not willing to open your likes and dislikes to the same level of scrunity? I thought this whole thing was a give and take kinda thing.....hmmmm

[Gir]

:inquisiti

This thread isn't about me or my collection. If you PM me, I'll answer any questions you might have.

[C1eaN]

Well..... this thing went out Monday before last (13 days ago) and still nothing. Should I worry yet? :banghead:

[Gruson]

LOL Clean...mine took 9 days so I would give it a bit more time.

I just hope it arrives in one piece. :)

Good luck.

[C1eaN]

9 working days? or 9 total?

[Gruson]

9 total....they may have sent it slow air though....or ever by ship. LOL....in that case, you have 20+ more days to go.

j/k

Let me know what you find out. I am sure it will get to you this week.

[cap70]

Well..... this thing went out Monday before last (13 days ago) and still nothing. Should I worry yet? :banghead:

Not yet, give a little more time. It probably just got delayed a little. Keep us posted and good luck.

[3D Figure]

were is the best place to get one of these?

[C1eaN]

UPDATE: not here in Monday mail :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

[C1eaN]

Another day of mail....another non-Arnie.....I am so frustrated with this I am not sure I will even keep the statue....OMG this is BS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

[P1X4R]

did you get a tracking number?

[cap70]

Another day of mail....another non-Arnie.....I am so frustrated with this I am not sure I will even keep the statue....OMG this is BS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

C1eaN, which store you got it from?

[C1eaN]

lemme clarify.... I am mad about the shipping delay not concerned about the legitimacy of the deal. A friend who lives in France got it for me. He found the B&M after seeing an Ebay.fr auction and called them. He liked the guy enough he bought a few things for himself while he was there. I have no doubt the deal is legit. He even went to the shop and inspected it for me before paying the guy the cash I Paypal'd him.

He scanned the 'La Poste' information etc but the shop owner sent it insured but not with tracking (economy). I think La Poste and/or USPS need to get their *@!% together!

[Gruson]

day 15

Any update?

lol

[C1eaN]

day 15

Any update?

lol


yes...here is the update....

the mail ldy came today and if I started the day with a bucket of warm piss I would not have added anything to report about :(

still nothing

[Gruson]

Keep us updated.

Anyone want to start a poll on when he receives it?

lol

I am going to guess July 8.

[Skulpturen]

Looks cool. As already said the likeness isn't 100% in the photos.
But I'll need to see this personally.


Now where is the TERMINATRIX????

[[Cipher]]

I have to agree to everything that has been said - the photos really don't do the likeliness justice, the face is so hard to picture from the right angles.
And here as well, some pics of mine:
http://www.last-alliance.net/gallery/cipherVarT850

On the box (at least on the european one), there is no announcement for a Terminatrix, but for a Battle Damaged T850. :buttrock:
Now this is going to be another highlight!

Thanks!
They should really do a TERMINATRIX in human form, 'cause that hasn't done before.
We already have authentic Arnolds and Endos made by either SIDESHOW or CINEMAQUETTE. Do we really need more of these????

[C1eaN]

Another days mail.....another disappointment......

[Gruson]

Doh!

Sorry buddy.

Of course we need! :buttrock:
The more "authentic" T-Arnie's, the better.
And sure, a TX in human form(or better yet, the size of a human! :D) would be great too.

[cap70]

That suxs, C1eaN. Wish ya better luck tomorrow(today).

Yup, the box says that. Can't wait to see this version.

[Sniper]

wow the detail on that one is awesome , right down to the buckles~

[Gianco]

Nice site! www.last-alliance.net Thanks Cipher!

[C1eaN]

still nothing :mad: :banghead:

[cap70]

That site is great. C1ean, hope you get it next week bro.

[leks]

Lol I ended up ordering one too, I was definitely gonna get this than started wavering and well ;) was offered by a Dutch ebayer couldnot resist, should receive it today....

C1ean did it work out?! yet, hope so.

[Gruson]

Good job Leks,

I am sure you will have Arnold in hand before Clean will.....

Sorry Clean! ;)

[leks]

I am used to it by now, but in general it sucks ordering from abroad this is very pleasant for a change, the thing is even fully insured this time like WOW :laugh: :laugh:

[C1eaN]

still nothing..... buddy in France has guy checking into it. The seller said he shipped something to AU recently that took like 15 days....... (crosses fingers).

[cap70]

Congrats, Leks! :thumbs2:
C1eaN, good luck. I'm sure you will get yours

[leks]

Thanks cap I thought I would have to wait another day but the guy sent it with tnt so bell rang this evening and voila. One day delivery rules...now if all my orders went like this :banghead:

He is standing besides my monitor for the moment so I can peek at it real good and I am extremely happy with him although I've seen so many good pictures I was prepared ;). I've checked for damages or better yet for no-damages and it seems fine owh yeh.

C1ean when I order from the Americas using standard airmail I don't get nervous for at least the first 3 weeks. Usually, for me, when it takes longer either the seller lied about the shippingdate or it is held at customs for one reason or another. I dunno if you can compare this the other way around from Europe to the US, but maybe you can...

Thanks for the encouraging words leks....

as an update today's mail has come and still nothing. I am only concerned as Gruson got his from Fr in 9 days.......

My buddy actually got the La Poste reciept and scanned a .jpg and emailed it to me the day after he said it shipped. it had dates and amounts stamped on it as a computer/meter would do so I am positive he sent it when he said he did.

Like I said before, my biggest worry is that by the time it gets here, frustration will outweigh desire and I won't even wanna keep the damn thing!!

[cap70]

I know what you means. Happened with me before, but with another statue.
I'm pretty sure you will get it, maybe there was a shipping delay, or delay at customs, you never know. Just don't loose your sleep over it. :thumbs2:

[Gruson]

Hope you get her soon.

[cap70]

Nice, skualman! And Welcome to the forum! :buttrock:

[C1eaN]

Who woulda thunk it?!?!?

Doorbell rings and Arnie is here. Apparently he said something about a *****house, Vegas and "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas". I assume his "detour" explains the timing but he is perfect and all is forgiven.

I was prepeared not to try again on this one and am glad he showed...wow pics just don't capture this one eh?

LOVE IT!!

#170/888

[Gruson]

ALRIGHT!!!!!!!!!

It's time to celebrate. I will buy the first round Clean. :)

:buttrock:

[leks]

I am glad it turned out alright C1ean.

You should start ordering more often from Europe you'll get used to having to wait for a month in notime ;)

Here are some bookends you could order next

It's nice but I prefer the Cinemaquette so I don't need this one now.

Anyone want it? I will make you a deal.

[DetroitSportsFan]

I knew that's why you were selling it. Just yankin' yer chain. :)

[Gruson]

LOL Clean, maybe. ;)

[C1eaN]

If I didn't have one I'd get this in a hearbeat from ya....your stuff is consistently flawless and packed professionally.

If anyone is even thinking about a Terminator piece....grab this from G now...you will not regret it!!
