NECA Terminator 2 T-800 Ultimate Figure – Toyark Gallery

Posted on October 10, 2015 at 9:16 pm by Joe Moore under Random Photo Shoot, Terminator Toy News

The latest figure in NECA’s line of “Ultimate” 7″ Scale Figures has been released earlier this month. The Terminator 2: Judgement Day – T-800 Ultimate 7″ Scale Figure is the first Terminator figure in the Ultimate line. With Terminator 2 versions of Sarah Connor, the T-1000 and NECA hinting that the T-800 from the first Terminator film is a possibility, this will be far from the last. The figure includes three swappable heads and multiple weapons. The figure features over 25 points of articulation. We have the figure in hand from Toyark sponsor Entertainment Earth. Check out over 75 high resolution photos to check out.

NECA Terminator 2: Judgement Day – T-800 Ultimate 7″ Scale Figure

Pros

  • Lots of accessories
  • Three unique swappable heads
  • Great likeness to Arnold Schwarzenegger
  • Plenty of articulation
  • Nice use of paint throughout

Cons

  • Minigun is bent

Overall
Of all the Ultimate figure coming from NECA, the Terminator line will be one of the hardest to pick a single look for each character. For Terminator 1, you have two very different looks for the T-800 and Kyle Reese (if they choose do do the latter). But, for Terminator 2, the T-800 is the easiest of the bunch. He had, mostly, a single look throughout the film. So the real challenge was for them to pick which accessories to include. NECA basically decided to include ever major weapon from the film, as well as three iconic head sculpts. The result is a figure that has a great value for the $20 price tag (yes, this is just $20 at Entertainment Earth). The figure comes packaged in the standard flapped window box. The package includes a Cyberdyne office building backdrop. Teh backdrop itself is on some very thick cardboard, making it super sturdy. The figure works really well standing in front of it. The package has an overall solid design. The figure is held in with just a few twist ties.

The T-800 has a fantastic sculpt. Longtime NECA fans will recognize that the base body is actually the same as the previous Terminator 2 T-800 figures. It does make sense to use the previous body, as the sculpt was excellent. The team there has cut in new leg articulation, which blends seamlessly into the folds of the pants. The new leg articulation complements the upper body articulation nicely. Of note is that the left leg features some articulation. NECA has stated on Twitter that this may be used for a future release, but they didn’t elaborate. However, by doing this, they’ve actually aided in making the figure more stable. It allows for nice action and walking poses without the use of a figure stand. The jacket, pants and head sculpts all feature small, intricate details that rally stand out due to the finer paint details. There’s barely a spot on this figure that doesn’t feature at least a little bit of paint. The new set of paint details, the new leg articulation and three updated head sculpts gives the figure a fresh feel to it. To round out the refresh, NECA dropped in a a pistol, a shotgun, a grenade launcher and a minigun with ammo bag. Though my minigun featured bent gun barrels, I have seen other people who’ve had perfectly straight ones. So this may be an exception. Even at a quick glance, this is an impressive release.

If you’re a fan of Terminator figures, then this is a must own. The great sculpt, excellent likeness, and plethora of accessories add up to an rally fun release. At a price f $20 – $25, the overall value is incredible here. This sculpt is also being used on the upcoming NES T-800 figure release.

    I picked this guy up on my birthday, very pleased with it. The minigun wasn't bent but the grip was snapped off, I can't really complain though because I had no intention to display him with the minigun anyway. I love the variety of weapons spanning pretty much the whole movie. I display mine with battle damaged head, grenade launcher in right hand, and shotgun in the left. Since his left hand's fingers are all sculpted together the shotgun is the only weapon he can independently hold in his left hand and look okay. Between this, Leatherface, and Freddy the Ultimate line is rocking. Jason hasn't even come out yet! I don't really like any of the Friday the 13th movies beyond the first but I still might get that part VI Jason anyway.

    Great gallery as usual Joe

    Wow. These close-up photos really showcase the attention to detail. Thanks for the great shots.

    This figure strikes me as particularly good appearance-wise because the arm and leg joints are concealed in no small way by the wrinkly contours of the clothing: you see the character, not an assembly of parts. I don't know how much dialogue goes on between cinematic costume designers and their toy design counterparts, but IMHO this is a point worth remembering. (It was a no-brainer that Black Series Leia in slave garb would become a peg warmer. Yuck!)

    IMO, this figure is the best of the NECA Arnolds thus far. I'm off the fence. I'm going to try to get one with a straight, unbroken minigun.

    In package the minigun itself is covered by the ammo bag so it's kinda hard to gauge, not impossible but challenging. I am so glad I didn't stay on the fence for this one, he actually sold out at my TRU.

    Thanks for the kind words guys. The details on the figure are great. I actually wanted to keep shooting this one. I think I like the sunglasses head the best right now.

    Not getting what he's saying about the left leg, does he mean the only the left leg is articulated?

    Both legs are articulated. The left leg has additional points of articulation. More so than is normal for a NECA figure.

    Image 23 does a pretty good job at showing the left leg's additional articulation. They're both swivels, one is partway down the thigh/upper leg and the other is just above the bottom of the pants.

    Hey Joe, good catch that NECA based this on their original T-800 figure...I noticed that right away when the first preview pics were released. But other than the exposed elbow pegs (which really aren't that noticeable, is it's black-on-black), the figure totally holds up to modern standards, which is amazing, since the base figure was released back in 2009. I have the original Cyberdyne Showdown figure and the paint apps are even better on the new figure.

    You're referring to the mid-thigh swivel, yes? That's actually a holdover from the previous version of this figure...the original T-800 figure this is based on had that thigh swivel and swivel ankles (and that's it). The fact that they actually went back and added hips, knees, and ball-jointed ankles and kept the joints as disguised as they did was amazing, and your review was 100% correct- this figure stands so beautifully and solidly that there's zero need for a figure stand at all.

    The added heads and weapons make this a fantastic value for your money, as you can re-create NECA's Cyberdyne Showdown, T2 3D: Battle Across Time, and Steel Mill figures (a great thing since 99% of those figures on ebay are shitty Hong Kong counterfeits, with legit ones costing a fortune). It's a great modern update to a great figure.

    I hope the rumors are true that they're fixing to do the same treatment with the T1 T-800. I know he has two distinct looks in that movie, but if they're only going to do one of them, it should be the Police Station Assault figure, as that's his most iconic look from the movie with the Gargoyle shades and all (I hope they include the .45 Longslide just for the hell of it, even though he didn't have it by that point in the movie).

    By "two looks" for Kyle I hope you're referring to his future Tech-Com uniform and not "Naked Kyle." *eep*

    Incidentally, am I the only person who noticed that Kyle spends the entire movie running around in sweat/pee/whoknowswhatelse-stained bum pants without so much as a pair of underwear to shield his nether regions? That makes the love scene with Sarah pretty f'in gross when you think about it...

    Nope...sadly, that's the rule as opposed to the exception. I bought more than one of these and the minigun was ruined in each and every one of them. And on top of bent barrels both handles on each one were squashed almost beyond recognition. This wasn't an issue with the original Cyberdyne Showdown figure (luckily, I still had that minigun/ammo bag to use instead). NECA needs to learn how to package accessories like this in such a way that they're not damaged like this. But otherwise, that's my only complaint about this figure.

    For Kyle, there the possibility of Future Kyle and trench coat Kyle. And I think Randy said if they were to revisit T1, they'd look at booth Police Assault and Tech Noir T-800's for the ultimate treatment.

    Good news, I'd love both.

    Future Reese?!

    Oh man, I would be all over that. YEAH, BABY, YEAH!!!

    P.S. Dolemite, I hope you're happy that you made me snort my miso soup.

    I was initially really bummed that my minigun was SO warped, but I fixed it. Just set up Arnold holding it and hit it with a hair dryer while pulling on the end of the barrels. Took a few times but now it's perfectly straight.
