5'9" should be close actually, they are 5'10-6' something usually so maybe slightly small, but not much.

5'10-6 would be about 180cm. Arnie is 6'2, the Endo would be just a tad under that, so about 6'1 to 6'2. Though the puppets could actually be smaller than that.

Yes a few inches less I expect also so around that range I mentioned. This isn't the same Endo as Arnie either though, and there were various height ones made. Stan loved the CM version, so I am not going to argue with him about an Endo.

I hear ya.
I'm a sucker for the classic "Big 3", so all the new a announcements have definitely cought my attention. Much more so in the last 3 out of the past 10 years.

I get ya, the big 3 is all I care about. My collection is still missing without primes 1/3 big chap, but space is a b!tch. I can skip T2 Endo as I have the T1, but that chap is calling me. It would be a nice setup to see the primes 1/2 scale Endo, 1/3 big chap and 1/3 JH altogether side by side.

The CM still holds up to this day. Besides being a little small, the only real other drawbacks is the cheap shoulder hose, neck pistons and teeth. Pose is subjective, some like it, some don't.

If prime 1 can improve upon all that, I may still grab it and leave it inside the box until I find space

Yea, that is one I missed out on back in the day. I probably wouldn't buy it now as I am good on Endos, but interested to see what P1 is going to do. I wasn't planning on more Terminator, but this set of 3 looks promising.

The only thing that would hold me back from re-acquiring the CM is the packaging. The slot for the rifle wasn't made right and mine broke during a re-boxing. That said, if the Prime doesn't meet my standards and the CM drops a lot in value, I might get it again. The smaller size still goes well with a lot of statues. I imagine it will be Primes goal to beat the CM though, just like they did with Predator.

Yeah I think prime 1 going huge like this is them thinking no one else will do the scales they do. Kind of a once in a generation or two type deal so shop with us. Lol.
