No excuses now hey? In fact this thread will help them out. And I hope they didn't just release an generic endoskull and call it T-1.

T1 has a few other characteristics unique to the skull. I've see the promo pic and I don't understand the neck or the chest and shoulder area. If you are going to include the chest and shoulder, why not make it accurate, same goes with the neck...

Are yes, it looks square and missing that slit in the middle. They have the resources, but for some strange reason they don't utilise them. Oh well, that leaves some room for other company's.

yea, it's too bad SS is busy pissing all over ALMOST every movie license. We all know why they don't utilize their resources, they don't care too. It's that simple. I can see why their owners live in the shadows.

On the T1 Skull it has a grooved top and on the T2 skull it has a smooth top.

Both of the skulls shown are replicas, the T2 skull in the photo is a Winston gift skull.

All T1 & T2 Endos were Vacuum Metalized. This is the same type of plating that you find on model kit parts. It's very delicate and scratches easily. They were sprayed flat and weathered to taste. Photos of the original skeletons are coming.

I know there are videos of people telling you that they used triple chrome plate, that actually wasn't used until I made replicas for XFX in 1998 which later became HCG.

This is awesome! Thank you! I checked over my T2 Endo cinemaquette and sure enough, it has those exact details at the top of the skull. Keep those details coming!!

I though the CM T800 was from T3.

[jaxon]

You're right, closer to T3 than T2. It's all in the little details.
