Anyone Know Where I Can Get a TX?

Taking the Plunge into the wonderful and expensive world of Cinemaquette (Terminator T-800, TX and maybem, just maybe the Predator). So does anyone know where I can get the TX for a reasonable price or have one to sell?

THX

I'm in the US.
But thanks to a forum member I have one on the way.
The T-800 endo should also show up in a few weeks.
Talk about taking a big plunge.

Excellent, excellent, excellent! Glad you found a TX. Did you get a good price?
You will not regret it. These two pieces are wonderful. Post the edition number of the T800 when it comes through - it would be nice to have some sort of idea to what number they have got up to these days.

Sometimes it can take some patience to get the foot peg to line up with the hole on the base. It is normal for the foot to not sit flush to the base as well so don't try and force it down too much else you will snap the foot.
And take care taking her out of the box. If you overgrip the leg you will crush the wires at the back of her legs. I find it easier to pick her up by the body.

Post pics when you get her, and congrats once again.

Anyone know how much the predator is going to cost? That's the third CM on the short list. How does it compare to the SS pred, other than size? I doubt I would keep both.

More detailed: little dreads on upperarms,legs,chest,.../bigger base incl.plants& bio-helmet/panel arm with a working countdown system/ a more museum like pose/real leather/teeth are much more detailed.
The rest is basically the same.I guess it will be made entirely of polystone like the SS version,the same fish net,a similar awesome paint application,...
Personally,I'm still on the fence for the CM one...One thing is clear:this is the BEST predator statue EVER!!!
Does the CM predator blows the SS one out of the water...That could be an overstatement... It is much better but is it THAT much better?
Is the CM predator worth 2 or 3 times the SS maquette?
I really don't know...still debating the question for myself...
