James Cameron captured the heart of many fans when Terminator appeared in theaters in the early 1980's, and that attraction to the end of days continued through 3 installments. NECA/Reel Toys getting more and more reknowned for their 18 inch action figure creations has produced an 18 inch action figure based on the Terminator Endoskeleton as it appeared in Terminator 2 : Judegment Day.

This is an amazing figure, so much articulation, and of course a dead online likeness to the movie machine. Articulation points include mounth, neck, shoulders, upper arms, lower arms, wrists, fingers spine, back, hips, upper legs, lower legs, feet, and ankles.
One thing I was worried about was the figures ability to stand on its own, because of the top heaviness, plus the feet are tiny. Not an issue, the Endoskeleton stands firmly on its own which standing straight up, however its difficult to get him to balance in different poses.

The cool factor of the figure comes in the light up eyes, that are activated by a panel on the side of the head. The eyes shine brightly and are powered by the included/replaceable battery.

The paint is basically one color, silver metallic, with hints of white and black for shading.

Another interesting point of interest is the multitude of hydraulic sockets that NECA had to produce to make the Endoskeleton screen authentic. Every point of articulation has some hydraulic action, that makes the figure come to life.
I am very impressed with this figure and highly recommend it to any fan of the movie or toy collector. It will be a great subsitute for those who can not afford the higher end, Endoskeleton Statue being produced by Sideshow Collectibles.
