Can anybody explain to me how these small figures can piss all over the likes of bigger more expensive statues such as Cinemaquette in terms of likeness?I ve seen pictures of this that genuinely look like a flesh and blood person.

Lots more AMAZING info here, courtesy of OMG over on the Sideshow Freaks board-

2) HT found a 3D Arnie body scan from T2 movie and use that as refrence for the body sculpt but slim down a bit in order to fit the cloth (rubber torso and PVC arms)

3) The head sculpt is pretty much final

4) Sarah Connor, T1000, different version of T800 and Endoskeleton are coming soon

5) An ALL NEW T1 LINE also coming soon

6) Hottoys has no interest doing the T3 line


There's also a 2 1/2 pages interview with Howard/JC/Yulli

1) Yulli like to do some large scale figure (1/4 1/2) she think I/6 scale is too small (Howard like the idea but the market for this is too small) she also like to do some 1/6 female figure like Audrey Hepburn and Maddonna.

2) Confirm by Howard himself: Christopher Reeve SUPERMAN / TRON 1982 and some other movie classic are coming in 2010

Thanks for the info from MILK magazine. I'll try to see if I can find this issue at the newsstand.

Wow, I'm glad the HT crew are big fans of Arnie and T2. Also happy to hear that Yulli has the interest at making bigger sculpts.

This HT Arnold puts the SideShow T-800 to shame. They gave the reason that the paint job botched up an otherwise very good sculpt of Arnold on that one.

But looks to me, HT is doing a better job.

It looks even better than the super expensive Cinemaquette with rooted hair(I always prefer sculpted hair)

When it comes to sculpting celebrity likeness, I say Yulli is the best in the business.She's the best. Nobody does it better.

Slimming down the Arnold body was the logical choice. If they maintained that, the doll clothes would make him bulky and unrealistic. That's why I always prefer my Hot Toys clothed. Like HT Hellboy and HT Wolverine. Strip off the clothes, it's a skinnier body underneath.

Hot Dang! An Audrey Hepburn 12" HT figure, sculpted by Yulli someday. That would make my dream come true. Audrey is my favourite classic actress! I'm trying to watch all her movies!!!!
