NECA Previews T-800 Packaging for Re-Release

[Dolemite]

I already have all the endos I can handle, but this is good news for those that don't. Nice packaging, BTW.

The new head design looks more like an angry mask than a human skull. Covered with flesh, the new features would hardly support a convincing facsimile of a human face. I suspect the label "endoskeleton" is retained simply as a matter of convention. Exaggerated body proportions are the big giveaway: the new movie will probably depict this guy romping among the ruins without any covering or concealment at all. (Commence jokes about a terminator "exposing himself.")

Edit: Seen HERE, the new skull design looks very anthropomorphic (human). If the NECA figure is based on the same design, then it may look really good up close.

This is just a re-release of their original figure. This is not a Terminator: Genisys figure.

That being said I hope this has better quality control than its original release. The Robocop vs Terminator endoskeletons were better but still kinda flimsy, though that's really the design's fault for being so skeletal and frail.

@Joe: Thanks for clarifying. This is timely, as I'd like to pair the original endoskeleton with my upcoming Ultimate. (You'd almost think they anticipated some collectors wanting to do that.) I look forward to reviews. Rgds

The one Movie Maniacs figure that the NECA version never manages to top. I will wait to see what this looks like in hand, but I think I would only get it for the better rifle if at all.

Nice, I will have to pick up a couple of these.

T2 ENDO
yes please

god i love NECA, using their PRED playbook
“they’re like yeah we know, we gave you a T2 ENDO already plus 3 more in 16-bit
but fucc it … we’re releasing again, …now what homie”

makes sense, the film is jus around the corner, so milk it
plus can never have enough ENDOs

that box laser beam insert is tight

now if NECA could just make/release a T2 HK tank as a deluxe vehicle
to go with my wonderful ENDOs
