The more I look at it the more I like it. It's still underwhelming, partly due to the familiar pose, but I think anyone who doesn't already have a terminator will be happy with it. Would love to see this piece and their Robocop side-by-side.

My main gripes are the softness of the sculpt and the lack of battle damage. Some bullet holes and blood might have remedied the cartoon-ish look.

I hope they tweak this a bit. I want it to do well, so that we at least have a chance of getting future releases, Tech Noir, Kyle and who knows MAYBE even a Sarah. These things always end up the same way....one and done. Prime 1 teased Reese how long ago and now they won't even be doing a smaller scale period.

I?m soooo happy!. I?ll stick with my sideshow one, its much better! Can?t wait for the Prime 1.

The lips and chin are way off, don?t look like Arnold, a cartoon terminator.

I do like the pose, body and clothing sculpt and pain job, but shame its not him.

Saved my self some cash.

I do think their Robocop was perfect, but too pricy.

You could take the money you were going to spend on this and put it towards the Robocop piece

Can't help but feel a tad underwhelmed. He might have benefited from having some battle damage. Still hoping someone makes his heavily damaged look after he's run over by the semi truck.
Isn't the prime one deluxe version that? Pretty sure the second head is the one after the truck damage.

Funnily enough my decision to purchase their Robocop statue was dependent on how much I liked this piece (which unfortunately wasn't enough so I'll be saving lots).

It is and I think it looks great, but it's also 1/2 which is too big for me. Plus I'd prefer him in a different pose for that damaged look.

Yeah I actually think the damaged head looks amazing... Just doesn't really go with the pose.

One thing I really dislike about the Prime 1 (other than the sculpt): not only does the pose look unnatural, but it's executed in a very awkward way. The way the waistband sits, it looks like his lower-body is facing one direction and his upper-body is facing another. Like his torso was sliced off at the gut, rotated, and reattached.
