Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand out of stock, again. Guess I'll just have to be happy with the 2 HK's that arrived today.

My order shipped today with the wrong quantities (and yet sale prices), so its surprise time

Wow, it looks like TRU.com actually sold out of the HK's during this sale. Last I checked, they still had over 100 in stock!

Even at the in-store price of $15.99 our local TRU sold out of the HK's too. Forget finding a T-800 (R.I.P.) or a T-1 there, and the Battle Damaged Marcus is pretty scarce too. So far the figures seem to be selling pretty well, and the local lack of T-800's isn't even my fault, as I pre-ordered most of mine online, and only bought a few in the stores.

Hopefully the good sales so far will translate well for distribution and availability of the upcoming items, such as the Moto-Terminators and Harvester.

My finished SkyNet army of T-800's, accompanied by some T-1's (which all may end up silver like the prototype one I painted):








Here are a couple updated shots of my battle damaged infiltrator. Aside from the exposed skull, I also added an exposed arm and shin.





And here is my Infiltrator Heavy Weapons Scout squad:



And a quick make-shift T-1000:

Excellent use of the SS body for the Terminator.

The A-10s I ordered have come in and yeah it's every bit "small". It feels like a remote control plane instead of an actual full size plane. It's exactly the same size as the CORPS! glider. Wing span and all.

I've been messing around with it and it's not really THAT bad of a toy. The landing gears do not fold up and it is a tight fit for figures to fit. It's a lot like that Sonic Fighters Apache. The Apache was ok for what it was too, but nothing I'd really recommend. This A-10 is the same. Had I not paid the $4.99 price, I'd have felt riped off bad.

But as I mentioned, GI Joe figure fit in there. You have to bend them at the knees and carefully put them in place, but they'll fit. I'd have to say anyone that got multiples of these, it would be a nice base for a custom. The gattlin gun/missile is a neat touch. It just needs something added to either make it look like it's suppose to be that small or to make it look larger.

No pics because I don't have a Rattler handy to shoot next to it. That's about the only pic that would be needed to show the size. It is smaller than a Rattler.

J_Man, can an ARAH figure fit in it, or only the scrawnier 25th sculpts?

Yep and that's getting Keel Haul in there with that big Navy hat they've got on him. I got Frost Bite from the Valor vs Venom new sculpt to fit too and he's pretty wide in the shoulders.

It comes down to positioning. Wider shoulders you can slightly angle the upper body like they are reaching for the flight stick. The only limitation I'm finding is if they have a lot of stuff hanging off of them that's sculpted on or if they have big feet like CORPS! figures have. I can't get CORPS! figures in there.

Has anyone heard when the new stuff is suppose to be hitting, in the U.S. (like the Moto-Terminators and Harvester)?

The only info I can find, is that Entertainment Earth has the Harvester listed as shipping in August,
while ToyRocket.com has the Harvester listed as June?! And neither of those sites even have the Moto-Terminators listed.

_________________

is that all that's left to come out? No second assortment of figures at all? I was really hoping they'd do a proper T-600 Endo or a Marcus endo, but I guess not.

I haven't heard about any more figures, aside from toyrocket.com's listings for two T-800 figures. They have the T-R.I.P. listed, and two different listings for T-800's (one specified as black / no pictures of either).
Their website is the only place I've seen that, so who knows if they mixed something up or not.

They also have a helicopter vehicle, tow truck vehicle, bio-flesh regenerator, and SkyNet playset listed (no pictures).
But again, their website is the only place I've seen these listed.

How interesting.
The helicopter is probably grossly undersized but I wouldn't mind seeing the tow truck, the regenerator and the playset (as long as it's not a cardboard mat like the Enterprise Bridge!).

_________________

Better not be like the Enterprise Bridge, it's listed at $59.99 (on toyrocket.com).
While toyrocket has their single figures over-priced at $10.99, their vehicles are pretty much in line with the stores at $23.99. So I don't think that the playset would be much cheaper, in the stores, than they have it listed for.
For that price it better be WAY better than the Enterprise Bridge.

Happily toyrocket.com also has the Harvester listed quite a bit cheaper than Entertainment Earth does. I was already figuring that, in the store, it would cost around the $40.99 that EE has it listed for, but TR has it at $33.99. So I'm sure the price will most likely be closer to TR's price [probably a little cheaper] whenever it finally comes out.

Does anyone have any good, clear pics of the Blair figure from the A-10 without her helmet on?

I might want to use her head for a project but I need to know if it's a good enough likeness.

Just an FYI, custom wise. If you want to give your Marcus figures a modicum of poseability, the Mutt torso and bottoms will make him pose better, just swap in the boots, arms, head, and jacket outer. You won't have the shotgun strap on the torso, but better to sling that via another way. Even better, maybe affix the Army of Darkness shotgun holder.

Just a heads-up.
