Tough choice, they are both great but as your a huge T2 fan, I`d go with the Terminator.

You certainly wont regreat it. ;)

I have the troll and absolutely LOVE it. It terms of value at this point, he would get my vote considering they are the same price, yet the Troll retailed for $100 USD more. The Arnie had a lower ES I believe, 500 vs 750.

Has arnies left eye been changed since the Sideshow shots? Its facing forward instead of to arnies left, which to me is a huge improvement. I didn't like the look of this bust but now I've ordered from play.com for £99.

What size is the troll bust compared to the other legendary scale busts? Since "legendary scale" refers to a scale (1/2?) the troll bust should be bigger than the Iron man or Dr Doom bust right? Any comparison pics?
