Informative video which is exactly what I wanted for this piece. All of the statue options seem fantastic. The prices are quite high. However, at least the release date is kind of far off, which would give prospective buyers time to stockpile their money to purchase it. At the beginning of the video, I thought the T800 had throat cancer. (I sincerely apologize if my joke is offensive or hurtful in any way.)
Haha, no worries about the joke! I appreciate your sense of humor. And hey, maybe the T800 just needs a lozenge or two. But seriously, I'm glad you enjoyed the video and found it helpful!
I also preordered the platinum Arnold. This is a one in a lifetime piece for fans of the original 2 films. Only 300 pieces run as well, they’ll go way up in value once they release, without question.
Wow 😳. Sheesh, the head sculpt is fantastic. The detail is just incredible. It’s amazing. Wow. If someone is a collector of Terminator. Then this is a must. It’s a Home Run.
We're thrilled that you liked the video and the T-800 statue! The level of detail is truly mind-blowing, and it's great to hear that collectors like yourself are excited about it. Thank you for your support!
So before ordering, people need to realize the platinum is a seperare statue vs the reg/deluxe. Platinum is based on the cyberdyne shootout with the reg/deluxe is based on the final scene. So even though you get two head sculpt with the deluxe, it makes little sense to ever put the bonus headsculpt on because the t800 will not have the right arm intact as the leather will be ripped. Another thing to not is Prime one reduced the shipping rate on this to only a little over 100 bucks, which makes it cheaper than the tax sideshow will charge.
To me it still makes to place that bonus sculpt with the Deluxe; he had that smaller level of damage when his left arm got caught in the gear and he had to shear it off with that steel rod. So it tracks within the final battle motif, imo 🍻
I love everything about this statue. I haven't decided what I want my first piece to be yet, and I was leaning towards Batman, but this one is absolutely sick.
I really love both, but decided to go with the Platinum since it's from the most badass scene in the movie. And I didn't want him looking completely beat to hell.
The platinum version is great, however it does not include any other head sculpt or the battle damaged arm. Treat it like a JND being very minimalistic in swappables.
Thank you for pointing out the differences in the platinum version. It's always helpful to have this kind of information so viewers can make an informed decision.
THATS AWESOME I COLLECT T2 and I LOVE THE DELUXE , THATS PROBABLY THAT I WILL CHOOSE WITH THE ENDO !! AND HOPEFULLY ILL HAVE IT SIGNED BY ARNOLD HIMSELF ✨👍🏻⛓️😎
Guys I need some help please 😅I’m still struggling here with my decision, I like both the platinum version & the deluxe version but I’m not a big fan of the rooted hair I like sculpt hair better but in the other hand I like the fact that you can get his pistol and glove hand & on the deluxe version you can get other battle damage portrait with a led light eye, man this is so hard😂
I think prime 1 nailed this one. I already preorder the platinum version. I love the head sculpt and all the arm switch outs. Wish they would have included the more battle damaged head with this version but I can live without it. The price is high but I can’t pass up adding Arnold to my collection.
Hi Chris, I just spent about $2500 on the Darkside Collectables T-800 on motorcycle exclusive looks awesome but dam it sucks that I paid that much for a quarter scale when I probably if I had waited might have just purchased the 1/3 scale T2 from Prime One studios for what I spent on the quarter scale. I quite happy with my quarter scale but to think I could have got a 1/3 scale instead is a bummer 😡
Wow, $2500 is definitely an investment! It's great to hear that you're enjoying your Darkside Collectables T-800. Sometimes it's hard to predict what will come out in the future, but hey, at least you've got an amazing piece in your collection!
I am a Terminator fan and my jaw was dropped watching your video oh my God it looks so good I mean wow does it look so good his face is on point is like he's about to say I'll be back I absolutely love this piece I want this piece it is definitely on the list I might just get the regular version and if I get that I have to have the T1000 to go with him I mean come on
I went with the deluxe version. Thinking also about pairing it with the t-1000 release which doesn't look like having rooted hair. As great as that version is I prefer the swap outs, pose and the the eye lights up.
Looks like you're assembling your own Terminator army! The deluxe version with its swap outs and eye lights up feature is definitely a force to be reckoned with. Who needs Skynet when you've got these statues?
@@BatmanStatueCollector have you seen my collection lol?! In fairness I do have the sideshow half scale endo, prime 1 t-800, and now just ordered this! Some say I'm obsessed...
I'm thinking of the platinum, as I want the tear gas grenade launcher, gloved hand, and shades. But I care not for the rooted hair and glass eyes, as I plan to have him wearing shades anyway. Ultimately, I just need one representative of T2, and there's no better person and definitive piece to have than Arnold himself.
Hello chris, do you suppose that jnd is going to make a 1/3 of Terminator 2 because prime one is good don't get me wrong but I want to clean version like the dark side version only dark side the details not there anyways let me know what you think bcuz I don't want to double dip
Thanks for your comment! It's great to see your enthusiasm for Terminator statues. I'm not sure if JND is planning to make a 1/3 scale version of Terminator 2, but I'll definitely keep an eye out for any news or updates on that.
@@BatmanStatueCollector thanks yeah that Terminator 2 I watched them film that when I was 10 years old . it was filmed about maybe 5 mi from my house in Fremont California the cyberdyne systems building scene that was right off of 880 freeway . Building still there looks exactly the same except for the third floor was just a fake cosmeticly added just to blow it up
I would have bought the Platinum IF the other heads and damaged arm were included. I'm also a little afraid of the rooted hair (remember the 1/2 Terminator?..). I think Prime1 did a big mistake by not including everything in the Platinum. So I pre-ordered the Deluxe, more alternate parts and better price. Also it will fit better with the T-1000 which doesn't look like it has sculpted hair... Now I want a T-X (finger crossed).
Did order the same version, for the same reasons. I would have liked the grenade gun, but think the DX is the best version for me. Now we onky have to wait a year to get it.
I went with the DX too. I mean platinum one sounds cool and all, with the glass eyes and hand punched hair. But the fully battle damaged head sculpt is far appealing for me and what I’ll be displaying with
Blitzway has just made the definitive statue of T800 from T2. It is simply outstanding. There is a very hughe Arnie/Terminator fanbase, I don't expect it to be around long at that edition size. I won't pick this up, but this is very high end quality 👍👏. Stunning work Blitzway and Prime 1. I love Blitzway , but till this day I still don't understand how the managed to screw up Margt Robbie HQ. That was such a shame. However I will order it when she goes on sale in the future.
It is interesting that JND was heavily criticized by its pricing. Now P1 releases one with same price but no silicone and now all of a sudden it is acceptable.
Thank you for sharing your observation! It's interesting to see how the perception of pricing can vary based on different factors. Your comment adds an insightful perspective to the discussion.
I po'd the deluxe bonus edition because I don't care for rooted hair. What makes me very happy is the real leather. With faux leather I wouldn't have bought it. But what doesn't make me happy is the difference between the versions. I want the DX with all the swap outs the Platinum offers. 😢
Thank you for your comment! I understand that not everyone may have the opportunity to appreciate this statue up close, but I'm glad you still find it impressive from afar.
In my opinion the 1/2 scale T800 by Prime 1 can't be beat, rooted hair, stubble, glass eyes and two silicone portraits with incredible likeness, its absolutely incredible. This new one is good though.
I have been looking for this in a very long time, so no brainer for me although it is extremely pricy. This is JND level pricing and no silicone. I do not think the paint application will be as good as JND, but I would be happy to be contradicted. Likeness is great and Blitzway delivered on the production of their last few pieces (except for the Joker for which the paint was a miss). I am extremely excited for this T-800.
Too much money for this, I'm gonna stick with my 1/4 Enterbay figures and get the 1/3 Endo statue only. If I was gonna spend that much on rooted/silicon I would go whole hog and get the Queen bust.
I dont know why blitzway use prime1! They dont need them! The fact that if blitzway do it alone we have same product, but much more less in cost of money! 🙄
Thanks for your comment! It's interesting how different people see different things in statues. Personally, I think it's a pretty accurate representation of Arnie as the T-800.

It's a hard decision my wife said she will leave me if I get another statue , I guess I can replace her
Haha, I guess sometimes we have to make sacrifices for our hobbies! But hey, who needs a spouse when you have an awesome Terminator statue, right?
😂
I'm saying a prayer for you as we speak :)@@mitchelllawrence2798
@@BatmanStatueCollector😂 Not married. But as long as the bills are paid, I'm free to do whatever 🤣
Ah, the joys of being single and financially responsible. The world is your oyster, my friend!
I love everything about this statue. I haven't decided what I want my first piece to be yet, and I was leaning towards Batman, but this one is absolutely sick.
These are incredible. Really wish I had the space but I gotta stay strong and resist.
It's a constant struggle, isn't it? I can totally relate. But who needs space when you can have an army of T-800 statues guarding your home?
I really love both, but decided to go with the Platinum since it's from the most badass scene in the movie. And I didn't want him looking completely beat to hell.
Same.
Deluxe is my choice, awesome piece!

ok this has become my number one grail now, absolutely insane!!! gonna buy a lottery ticket tomorrow lol
Prime1 let you pay it off in 13 instalments. Makes it a bit more affordable if that helps.

They are not including tore up leather jacket with the beat up arm. So you are only getting the endo hand or reg hand look.

Going Dx bonus version
Appreciate your comment! The DX bonus version is definitely a must-have for any Terminator fan.

Thanks for sharing your opinion! The T-800 exoskeleton statue is definitely a popular choice among fans.
The fact that they didnt't include the red eye portrait with the platinum is a huge fail for P1😢
It is interesting that JND was heavily criticized by its pricing. Now P1 releases one with same price but no silicone and now all of a sudden it is acceptable.
I dont think anyone thinks it’s acceptable but if you are a die hard T2 fan this is a must have if you can afford it.
