Playdough Feet!
I could mold and maim better figures with Playdough!
Marvel legends were the best retail figures available and theyre gone/ruined by hasbro so basically judgement day has already happened in the toy universe…
These are cool for kids i guess but even they deserve better-especially for the price.Theyre has to be some middle ground between NECA and Mcdonalds toys but Playmates definitely isn’t the man for the job,Sadly i don’t think anyone is.
How is it toys from way back in the day look cooler or about just the same-Someone needs to acknowledge this and put out good toys for once instead of de-evolving and increasing the price.I miss paying 7-8 bucks for a completely detailed figure full of weapons and amazing articulation plus a piece to build another figure…DAMN!
The hunt is over

these figures are way 2 expensive 4 a toy that dont even have a huge amount of articulation. they should cost more like Â£5 or sumthing. but difinatley not Â£12.

Thanks to Behonest for leveling a real opinion; these toys are no better than Kenner’s T2 line from ten years ago–that’s unbelievable.

I read Michael’s reviews here and at his home often, yet I am troubled by his ability to high-score obviously hideous figures and terrible sculpts. Perhaps, in the deluge of toys that he looks over, he can no longer identify obvious flaws? I’m certain he purchases most of these review figures on his own, so I doubt he is being swayed by the companies themselves.

Anyway, these figures look terrible, with articulation that’s long been abandoned for more limber designs, yet most of them get a three star rating? I don’t know, man. Criticism demands true assessment and accurate judgment. Even though it’s figure review, it’s an industry and still deserves to be criticized when applicable.

Admit these figures are a ripoff for their price point, and it’s a shame that this toy line didn’t go to Mattel or Hasbro.

At least if it was with Mattel then Christian Bale might have allowed his likeness to be used for a figure. That’s how bad this line is: so bad the movie’s main character can’t even be made with a true likeness.

Sadly, for a movie as good as Terminator: Salvation is going to be, this line is a giant piece of overpriced crap.

I really like the T-600, but really is he that huge :0. Regardless i’ll probably army build him, and any of the T’s

I disagree, Arnold. The T-RIP and T-700 are both pretty nice, and I’m still thinking about grabbing the Hunter Killer because it comes with another T-700 and the HK itself looks nice.

These things look like ass. Anyone who thinks otherwise has been payed-off by Playmates.

Edit to my last post: I DID pick up marcus as well as T-600. The 600 is pretty big, but marcus’ legs aren’t THAT horrible. Not to be rude, but you forgot to write about the hydrobot.

Yeah, The T- R.I.P is the best. I MIGHT Pick Up the Marcus just to have a good guy in the mix.

Yeah, I figured there was a story reason for the ridiculous size. That doesn’t forgive how _bad_ the figure looks in the pack.

You guys do know that the T-600’s are supposed to be huge, right? The model that was shown at media junkets was about 9 or 10 feet tall and labelled as “actual size.”

I was avoiding the 6-inch scale , but if the T-1 is a close fit to the 3.75-inch scale then I must own one! Thanks for the info.

I think the T-1 in the 6″ line might fit in better scale-wise with these too.

I picked up the T-700 and T-R.I.P. (and posted reviews of each at my own site) and was surprised to discover the difference in height between the two figures. I initially wanted a T-600 but after seeing him in the store I passed; too huge and goofy looking.

Now that I’ve seen the Marcus photos here, I may need to grab one. I also need to snag the 3.75-inch scale Hunter Killer that’s out there now.
