Ok, we start the Countdown Timer (as usually..)

But yes, very curious if this will be quality or another dog bone or even an empty bowl

My confidence for this product has really dropped. I ordered this from BBTS back when they didn't collect sales tax and the only reason why I ordered from them. BBTS makes no exceptions for pre-order cancelling with NRD even for something that is year past due. If I ordered from Sideshow, the constant delays is grounds for getting your NRD back.

Now that two companies are involved, there's less profit to share. And Sideshow hasn't been exemplary when it comes to the quality of their Terminator products. So I am concerned about some cutting of corners on this. This product should have been cancelled and re-solicited as a Sideshow product.

The month to month slip is quite annoying as it seems that even Sideshow who is now the producer doesn't even have a clue when this will be out. If it was truly a month away, then Sideshow should have had a factory sample by now and you would think that they'd showing it off to drum up sales. After two years, even a limited edition size of 1991 hasn't been sold out through direct and retailer orders.

Surprise surprise, then at the end of June they'll say July.
Wouldn't be surprised if this didn't ship until end of the year and that's if it doesn't get cancelled. There's no way I can see sideshow putting this out with all the animatronic features and all those potential returns especially with their cheap manufacturing.

Now it's July to August.

If sideshow decides to sell this piece as a static arm only then they had better adjust the price and offer refunds to those who paid for what was initially advertised. And it will certainly be interesting to see the first YouTube reviews.... I hope it lives up to a higher quality standard ...

I believe they are partnering up with other companies which is why for instance you now see “Collectable set by Sideshow” on the endo arm .....But it literally states “ Sideshow, in partnership with Blitzway, is proud to introduce the Terminator 2: Judgment Day T-800 Endoskeleton Arm & Brain Chip Life-Size Collectible Set! This collectible set is the second addition to Blitzway’s “The Real” series.”. And its now being manufactured by Sideshow as well. Their delivery dates keep getting pushed further and further down the road so this may indicate some trouble but whether that means they are going into bankruptcy who knows but time will tell if there present struggles mean the are close to shutting the doors lol

FYI looking forward to seeing what this will look like!
