i’m still learning how to post on Reddit but I guess it can only be one video at a time here’s a little compilation of a terminator endoskull I’m finishing up for my 1:1 build. Eyes (not picture are modified with deep groves and negative space for glass cabochon with metal mesh. ) and i added mostly metal jaw pistons that can articulate ( I actually just decided to get the other movie replicate part castes in metal and just make a bunch of sets for my future 1:1 projects. But thought i’d share because everyone can appreciate a nice endoskull 😎

Bought this resin print off ebay at a very reasonable price. Thought I'd share as it blows the original Sculpt out of the water. Included some pics of the original head for comparison.

Discussion Was it ever addressed in lore about how the resistance fighters managed to get necessities such as food?

Was it ever explained in any terminator novels or games about how these resistance fighters even managed to get any sort of food? I mean you could say that they probably did scavenge some food at the start of the war, but then those type of solutions wouldn’t last long.

You could also say that they did farming but the problem is, but from what we’ve seen from the flashbacks it doesn’t sound plausible especially with how ruined the landscapes are.

Collection Looking for an empty "The Terminator" Neon Raptor beer can (Will pay shipping to USA!)

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm a massive, lifelong Terminator collector based in Wisconsin, USA. I recently found out about the official "The Terminator" Hazy IPA released by Neon Raptor Brewing Co. in the UK, but due to US alcohol import and customs restrictions, I can't get the actual beer shipped here.

Since I just want the awesome artwork for my memorabilia shelf, I am looking to buy an empty, rinsed-out can from anyone in the UK who has access to it.

I am more than happy to cover the full cost of international shipping to the US, plus a bit extra for your time and trouble.

Collector's request: If you haven't opened the can yet, it would be amazing if you could drain it by punching a small hole in the bottom so the top pull-tab stays intact for display, but I will happily take a regularly opened can too! Please send me a DM if you can help a fellow fan out. Thanks so much!

Discussion Why does the Terminator always walk so damn slowly?

26 Upvotes

Rewatching the first Terminator, and one thing that always cracks me up is how slowly he moves.

During the police station shootout, he's just casually strolling around like he's got all the time in the world. There's absolutely no sense of urgency.

The only time I remember him actually running is when he chased Sarah and Kyle out of Tech Noir.

He's literally a killing machine programmed to complete a mission, so why does he spend 90% of the movie walking around like he's out for an evening stroll?

Is there an actual explanation for this, or is it purely to make him look more intimidating?

Discussion Should Skynet have a cental core?

11 Upvotes

Some people don't like the game T Resistance and compare it to Genesis cause it shows that Skynet has central core and not a few centers and works like Bitcoin.

I dunno. It fixes the problem of where does Skynet gets resources. They have limited resources so maybe central core is only thing Skynet can have cause making a lot of backup servers may be not resource effective.
