Man, I'm glad NECA put this out. I didn't want to have to dig through the endless sea of cheap Hong Kong knock-offs flooding Ebay. Great figure and value.
BTW, the shot of Arnold through the T-1000's head-hole is great, lol. Last edited by Dolemite; 02-25-2016 at 04:15 PM.. |

Thanks. Yeah, second market on the older Terminators is crazy at times. Though, oddly, the Kyle Reese's can be had pretty cheap. I wouldn't mind a reissue of the frozen T-1000 with added articulation as well.

When I found this figure in person the other week it was pretty hard to not buy it, between budgeting and watching my space I had to pass. Then you go and do this review which makes the figure even more appealing!

I was real pleased with it. Especially because the joints were some of the best I've gotten from them ever. Usually there's at least a tad bit of stiffness and I need to keep a hairdryer handy just to be safe. This time, nothing. Solid, but not stuck and little effort required to swap out heads, chest, hands and forearms.

My T-1000 came with 2 left legs.

If you can, contact @NECA_CS on Twitter. They should be able to ship out the correct piece or replacement figure if needed.

It looks well but I wasn't fussed on the T-800 likeness relative to how good this is, so I probably won't bother just for a T-1000 and maybe Sarah.

I recently just got this in my pile of loot from BBTS, and I must say that it was quite easily my favorite figure in it thus far (that I've opened...) The swap out parts are great, the figure feels solid and sturdy, and I didn't even have to heat it up to start posing it. I did have some issues with the split open head sitting kinda high on the figure's torso, as well as one of the ball pegs on the gun hand being slightly too big to fit in the wrist hole, but it was nothing a little work from my dremel couldn't fix. He looks great beside the Byung Hyun Kim T1000, and I highly recommend to any fan of the film. He's an easy must buy, and an early candidate in my eyes for a top ten figure this year. Easily one of the best "ultimate" figures thus far.

So you want a "frozen" figure to have articulation?

No cons? Does that mean no more brittle as *** plastic? Virtually all of my older T-1000's have snapped pegs in either the shoulders or the elbows.

Plastic used is fine here. I didn't have any breakage issues. Joints were solid. Very much in line with recent Ultimate releases in terms of plastic used.

NECA has made a heap of progress with QC since they first did T2 figures. Not saying they're perfect, no company is, but I haven't experienced QC issues on a figure in over a year. The last major QC epidemic they had was with the Superman in their recent DC dvd figures and I honestly think it has something to do with the nature of the figure's release.

I believe the customer service report form on their official site has an option to attach an image but Twitter is really the best way to get in contact with them, even if it means just creating an account for better access to customer service you may want to consider just going to @NECA_CS on Twitter. It's free and doesn't take that long to join Twitter and it could lead to higher chances of fixing your issue.
