Is the T-700 that comes with the Hunter Killer the same as the single carded one?

broke down I bought the A-10 the Pilot is super small, but her upper toso and face were pretty good size wise so I bashed her w/ a Lady Jaye Torso and with the exception of the man hands looks pretty sweet, I 'll post a pic tonight.

Minus the accesories, of course.

Can't wait to see that!
I still haven't even seen the A-10 yet.


Here is a little visual guide to what I've been doing to the T-R.I.P. figures, to fix the long arm problem:

Standard figure:
Image

Cut the arms at the "piston" sections.
Image

Image

Drill holes in the arms and hands:
Image

Clip and insert a piece of paperclip in to the wrists:
Image

Re-attach the arms:
Image

Figure is fixed...
Image

And ready to kill some humans!
Image


I've done 15 so far, and the process goes pretty quickly now. It only took me about 10 minutes to do the one pictured, and that includes the time it took to take the pictures.

Now I've only got about 20 left to go...

Tenacious work on that Terminator! I presume his hands swivel now? A fix for the neck would be sweet!

I bought a T-RIP and a T-700, but rarely do I have the drive to customize any characters I don't own, so I'm probably almost thru buying Terminator stuff. Tho I probably will pick up a T-1 and maaaaybe the A-10 when I see 'em!

I snagged a T-700 as it was the only Endo that I could find. Looking at pictures online though, I'm glad he's the one I got as he's a little taller.

It's not perfect, but it's a fun figure and I could definately see myself grabbing a few more. I may do Gaigaan-Dnok's wrist mods (More to get swivel wrists than to shorten the arms) and add a silver wash eventually, but for right now he's menacing my Joes as is.

The T-1's nice, I highly recommend picking it up. I've got three & was strongly tempted to pick up another two at my TRU yesterday.

Now, if only someone could do something about the Endo's open mouth and lack of a neck joint.

What exactly does the carded T-700 come with anyway? I was really disappointed in the weapons that the T-RIP came with. The carded figures aren't out in the Philippines yet but the Hunter/Killer is already out. Would you recommend I get the Hunter/Killer instead? Kind of hitting two birds with one stone.

Yeah, get the HK pack. The 700 comes with a steel beam & some weird gun.

I got the HK today thanks to Billy. I think it's friggin' sweet. The missiles fire with quite a lot of potency, which is always a good thing. :-D And the Terminator was taller than I expected after reading this thread. ;-)

Got some of these & love em. Thank`s for the how to on the Phased Plasma rifles with the 40 watt range,they are sweet. Also on the han d swivel too. Since the first Terminator film the idea of a army of Endo Skeletons has been a Must have & Finally we`re there. Hope MJ does either follow your idea for the Phased plasma rifles or do a movie accurate one soon.
