The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I would rather wait and have a perfect piece than rush things and get a Bad QC.
When Paul talk about quality, he mean it.
Way to go mister.

I was told by our factory rep it may be delivered before the fourth quarter....

The delays are totally my fault, the paint is the way I want it....
This makes me erect with anticipation! I look forward to the pics from Wondercon

I love the pose of this statue, I enjoyed the movie, looking forward to putting him next to my Chronicle Endoskull, and I'm in for the 1/2 BD Bust. Maybe Guardian too.

If the paint is a little more Chrome-like this time around, that would just be awesome. Selling my Hot Toys; just aiming for a humble collection, a few K spent, of Terminator/Alien/Predator/Jurassic Park/Robocop statues...so every piece counts!


If Prime 1 produce 1:4s from T1, I'll be in there too of course!

It's a nice finish, I like the tonal values, the fit and finish is top notch and the eyes are killer the way the skull opens up to expose the batteries and switch.

I have about seven of these kicking around the office, all of them had changes made, the eighth was the winner. Our factory rep actually went to China to oversee the production on the 1:4 Endos.

Will do a reveal next weekend at Wonderfest, if you have a Guardian this skeleton will fit inside his body, it's so cool seeing them together. I can't wait to display my set....

Great to hear Paul! Really looking forward to the reveal.

It's like you are in my brain! I'm doing the same except swap Conan with JP for me.

I dumped all NECA, then HT, now on to just a few high quality pieces from my childhood movies. ...

Less is more, and my house won't look like a toy store anymore..lol. (not that there's anything wrong with that)

It's expensive being a nerd whichever way you cut it! I earn an average-ish salary; so my eyes water when I think about spending £600 on a statue. (NECA would be the natural collectors item for someone in my income bracket.)

But I think Hot Toys represent the worst of both worlds. High-cost, high-space, and the need to collect several pieces. Plus, to the uninitiated, they still look like toys, or worse, dollies!
