Hi guys, just wanna ask a simple question.
For those who have the HT Terminator T600 rubber mask version, are the pistons on the arms supposed to be solid or loose?
I was supposed to collect mine a few days ago and all the pistons are solid, save for one. So I was wondering if it is supposed to be like that or is it a defect? Anyway I did not manage to collect the T600 that day cos' the mask was missing. I was assured that HT will replace it but I have to wait 2-3 weeks. I am considering to cancel it and get it elsewhere.
I am a perfectionist when it comes to models, especially HT stuff as they don't come cheap. Small defects on items like these turns me off.

Thanks in advance!
Ron

where did you purchase that T-600 on pre-order?
Well no matter how perfect hottoys qc try to be, minor flaws and defects on their figures do occasionally occur. Its normal.
Quite hard to find a perfect T-600 because the term perfect for one person to another varies here and there.

Some look for perfection in the eyes, pistons, weathering, articulation on the T-600.
So you really gotta ask yourself which points of perfection you are looking for.

Don't forget to share with us which shop was that, at least new collectors can be safe or double check their purchases.

Cheers man

Hi there, thanks for the reply. Well, since the pistons are supposed to be loose then I guess its not a defect.
I have decided to stick to my order and wait for the mask.

The place is Shioktoys. I am a regular there and so far all the stuff I got from them are all in good condition, until this. Cant blame them though, if the package came without the mask.

Well, wherever you purchase your items, just make sure you inspect it first, especially for broken or loose joints. Not worth keeping it MISB if the item inside already has a defect.

I would be interested but...-sigh-...low on $$$ at the moment...buying some leopard geckos instead icon_rolleyes.gif
Too many hobbies takes a toll on one's pocket.
But one thing about the Wolvie that turns me off is the wrist joints. Looks kinda unsightly when he is sleeveless. Just my opinion.
