Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

The review

Once again thanks guys!

I will try and get some pics done but they come out crap so i gotta wait for daylight.

I can't say which one I like the most out of the three CM Terminators, that's a hard choice. Just by looking at them you can see the share quality these CM's have in comparison to others. I've always wanted a large T-800 Endo and the closest I ever got was a vinyl model kit by a company called Argounauts. The sideshow ¼ scale was an good attempt but failed in many ways to deliver some justice to the Endoskeleton. The CM T-800 is a different story, there's nothing out there at the moment that comes close to it, the solid build, design, look, feel and the movie accuracy, this piece is absolutely astonishing, simply the best Endo out there, a dream come true.

I am not a Fan of Alien so i wont be getting that (phew, my poor credit card) but im sure the CM Alien is top quality item that i wouldnt mind having if i could afford it onyl becuse of it being a CM product. Now if it was Aliens, it be a different matter. Would like to see a ROBCOP version and i cant wait to see their PREDATOR. Yes it be awsome if they did Darth Vader too, and stroomtroopers. The list of wants could go on.

Now i cant wait till the life size 1:1 Endo by SS comes out, or the 1/2 scale Endo by Hollywood Collectors Gallery version via SS. Ill be reviewing them too in time.

MOVIE ACCURACY 4

Theres a small piece missing, a connection piece which connects the rod cable to his head, hence 4.

OVER ALL 5 Worth the money and the wait.

MOVIE ACCURACY 4

The blue lights actually glow through into the arms in the movie, unfortunately they missed this out in this statue replica.

OVER ALL 5

Was not too keen on the TX but this being an impressive piece makes a worth while, and once you have it you get attached.

MOVIE ACCURACY 4

Slight disappointment in comparison to the prototype version but nevertheless this is one hell of a looking Arnold. Slight minor inaccuracy with clothing.

Overall 5


Ok by this comment "Theres a small piece missing, a connection piece which connects the rod cable to his head"

Heres what i mean see pic one, how it is supposed to be, and how it is on the CM version pic 2.

Hi
i saw your comment about the t-800 from CM.
I think your wrong about the connectionparts of the neck
look at this picture of the original endoskeleton this is the same connection as the T-800 from CM has.

That’s a good example and can not be ignored but the "original" endoskeleton had that connector the way Ray shoed it on his end skull. Watch the first movie. I personally like the way it was because it looks sexy like that. It doesn’t just go in into some hole and that can not be seen.
