But really no, they just look like hobbits in the LotR movies because they used regular sized people and used tricks to make them appear shrunk, and so they looked like regular people but scaled down to 1:2 scale...

On a related note, they shoulda just used midgets for all the hobbit characters full time but I'm sure they may as well tried and failed and only used them for certain scenes. I think the so awesome and politically correct term these days is dwarfism or something but ah whatever I'm so sick of PC I'm done trying to appease that crowd. I don't think a damn thing in the world is wrong with the term midget. But peck sounds pretty vulgar and I'm surprised that term never gained traction as N word level slang for small folk after it appeared in a movie. Poor Willow.

Yes, the baby thing was a joke. "little people" is correct PC now I believe,(I hate all this PC overboard climate now too).

It isn't. I preordered mine. Also it is probably cause Terminator sadly just not popular anymore because of the ----ty movies.

I’m looking forward to them doing a 1:3 statue, going by this 1:2 it should be great.

I ordered mine too but not as much buzz around this piece as I would expect. I guess the Terminator franchise didnt aquire many fans after the first 2 movies. This piece for me depicts the first time the T800 was showed on the big screen in the most accurate pose possible. At first I wasnt fond of the pose but if you think about it it's the only possible pose they could and should go with to be screen accurate as he only appeared damaged and limping in the first movie...exactly like the pose including the damaged heel. Good job Prime 1

I honestly think it is just a combination of the scale being tool large for many. And the fact that they let slip that they will be making one in a more manageable scale down the line. That and the usual product saturation which is an ongoing issue now, most of us have to choose what we want carefully rather than have it all as we might have 3-4 years ago.


Ultimately, this thing looks incredible!

Is that a fact? Really? What scale, 1:4?
