Looking good. You're taking it a bit farther than I would have. But now that I know it's just a matter of using heat to loosen parts, I may adopt the strategy.

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

Yea some parts are glued in better than others the arm key tore partially in the hole but the glue was different than the stuff used on the neck and pistons. figured if it breaks its fixable since its not chrome and more forgiving. This one at least appears t have been assembled and then painted, I also think they painted it and the cleared changed the chrome color to match the gun metal color. which is why those parts where then painted flat black. Once my paint gets here I can see how it goes lol

when you look closely at the parts of this 1/4 t skeletom, you can see that some of the parts are deformed

nothing beats injection moulded

I am lucky I did not buy this

So you guys that got your refund, how long did it take? I shipped mine back and CC got it on 1/31 and still no refund. I emailed them and even tried calling them today but no response. It should take a week to get my money back to me.

Edit: They just refunded me, so everything is cool.

Lucky? Lol you're right. CC doesn't offer refunds. It's a gamble to buy CC.



I think all who ordered expected it to be better than what it is. I still suffer shock and disbelief over the risk they took for what was for all intent and purposes their flagship product. It earns that title for how fast it sold out. I think it's fair judgment for the piece.

I feel like the hype has worn off long ago for the movie and this statue, and when it came down to it for finally producing it at a factory, a little less care was given for it and suddenly the door was open for opting to use a different factory to get the product out faster to people.

Now people can ----- and whine at CC all they want. The vendetta's can be out in full force. But let me remind everyone the reason this statue was delayed and ultimately why we are where we are at today instead of having a toynami produced piece: It's because some of you cried at the top of your lungs for something, anything but the aluminum finish TG used. Paul listened to you and the rest is history. CC's fault for shipping this/Customer's fault for whining for change/Paul's fault for listening to customers/blah/blah/blah.

If you're going to damn them then damn them for what they were guilty of trying to do: Please your dumb asses(to whomever that statement applies) because you wanted your idealized terminators because SS won't give them to you. Again, congratulations, because you're getting what you want from them when the second movie comes around. Enjoy paying for the triple chrome plating.
