I'm sorry to say that I just couldn't bring myself to unwrap my T-800 because I don't have anywhere to display it anyways so the pictures I took still had to cushion wrappings on. I know.....

I did take some pictures of the other stuff I have. Hope you guys like.

Get those toys out of the display cases and put the T-800 in there.

Anyways, I just wanted to share the fact that I'm so happy to have recently purchased the T-800 from Cinemaquette. I love the details and I especially love the fact that Stan Winston signed off on the design. I've looked very long for a good Terminator piece to add to my collection and finally found something that was worth my money.

I haven't even completely looked at it because the piece itself came wrapped up in a bunch of cushion stuff. I guess I should take it off just to make sure nothing broke. I purchased the piece directly through Cinemaquette and after I received the T-800, I called them and spoke to the sales guy (he told me to call him after I received it and tell him what I thought of the piece) and suggested that he do a Transformers piece, especially since the movie is coming out. He said that would actually be a good idea because of the detal that might involve. I hope they look into it as the Transformers are another item that I collect.

I've looked around on some of the other threads for Attakus and I am definitely jealous of some the pix. I also collect Darth Vader and some people have some really nice collections. Rock on people!

Welcome and good luck. This place is a money sink..

Welcome to the forums. Your T800 will be the center of all your collection

...now I'm just hoping that Arnold Schwarzenegger (The Governator) shows up at this years San Diego Comic Con so I can get him to sign my T-800. That would definitely make my T-800 the center piece of my collection.

Also, I'm hoping that the guy that does the voice for Optimus Prime shows up too. I'm thinking it's a possibilty because of the movie coming out this July 4th. I've heard that they got the guy that did the voice from the cartoons to do the voice for the movie. Unless something has changed since I last heard this, that would so cool too.
