The endoskeleton's mouth opens and closes, and it's knees can actually bend, unlike the other AHNOLD ones.Seriously, the T-800 "Pescadero Escape" looks awesome!! He comes with a little toy Winchester shotgun! I really want the T-1000 one when they make it so I can have me some epic action figure battles.

I picked up this set first day at the store. And a week later I sold them at a toy show. They suck. really bad. The sculpting on the arnolds is awesome! Excellent jobs. But they have the articulation of a G1 transformer burried in glue.

The endo skeleton cant acheive any pose without some serious modding (cutting) to its parts to fix all the articulation. Joints and hoses and such constantly pop out of place and the thing is so limp it cant hold its weapon upright or stand very well. The head looks nowhere near as cool as it does on the packaging or the movie. Something is off (the jaw has wires? and the eyes are off)

The Greenshirt arnold has no leg articulation. Just one SWIVEL mid thigh spot. No elbow articulation, though the figure does look cool.

Leather Jacket Terminator has the best articulation as it actually has GASP elbow articulation. The head is on a ball joint which is cool and you can semi stick him in a cool pose.

If you want to play with these or pose them, dont waste your time. If your looking for a nice statue.......these are the right price at $10 bucks.

You got raped pretty bad paying 17 bucks for one figure.

I didn't buy it at all. I just got that image off the Internet...I saw them at Suncoast today, though. I bought the "Pescadero" one and then returned it less than 20 minutes later when I discovered that his knees didn't bend (I hadn't opened it)...

Yeah, the poseability seriously does suck...but the sculpts are AMAZING.

Oh my bad! sorry for that then. Suncoast is still around? Yeah their prices are INSANE.

The Pescadero Escape one is the best one. If only the legs had some movement. I want a Terminator ACTION Figure, not a staction figure.

Whats frustrating is that he has elbow articulation, so they totally show you that they can do articulation that works and doesnt detract from the sculpt.

I know. I didn't want to return it, but I was not going to waste my $18.18 on that...
