Terminator: Salvation 6" figures review

[michael crawford]

As I mentioned earlier this week, I’m hitting up the Trek and Terminator licenses pretty heavy for the next few reviews. Last night I checked out the 6” Terminator: Salvation figures of the T-600, T-700, and T-R.I.P., and if you’re looking for rainbows and puppy dogs, you ain’t going to find it here. Nope, another disappointing release, although the T-700 is at least reasonable decent…if you don’t end up with one that has his feet on the wrong legs, like I did. I’ll be looking at the 12” Trek on Thursday night, and there’s a ray of sunshine, albeit a thin one.

You can find all the reviews at the usual:

I'd really be curious to know if any product to the Movie is going to bare any extreme likeness to the characters... So far,.. the Hot Toys John Conner is the only thing I have scene.

Both Terminator:Salvation and the new are Trek are disappointing in the toy area. The new Kirk figure is horrible.

yeah i've seen both lines hanging on the pegs. i tried to convince myself to buy but just couldnt fool myself.

The flying hunter killer is interesting so is the T1 Tank. The T600 makes sense as a primitave prototype of the walking terminator.

But the T 700 and 800 and RIP are all the same figure. What a rip.

Shouldnt the RIP be more primative then the T600?

The Marcus guys are the worst of the lot.


Photos of the giant harvester and the cyclebots look promising

I can't believe these toys are taking up space on the shelves this summer... & I am a Huge Terminator Fan.

I saw these figures the other day. I'm not impressed what so ever. I thought they were gonna be amazing. I'm not gonna be getting them. I'm also a huge Terminator fan

Welcome Mike! I've read your reviews from time to time. I hope that you don't mind that when I first hear your name, I think of the singer that plays Phantom Of The Opera.

I saw these this morning. I think the Terminators look ok...the humans fall into the same messy pile as the Trek figures (whom, after a huge run at the start, are starting to pile up hip deep!).

My main issue is the scale thing. I noticed the so called six inch figures are barely taller than the 3 3/4 stuff? 4 1/2 inches roughly. Is this another Canadian rip off thing like the missing extra bridge pieces with the Trek figures?
