The Unofficial Terminator 2 T-800 Builders Club

Not a lot of folks have taken on this project, that I am aware of. But a few intrepid souls have embarked on the odyssey (Taz, StreetJudge, PostManPat), now myself included… The ubiquitous Planet Hollywood T2 “Stage 5” Terminator statue (present at each of the store locations “back in the day”), was an early holy grail item for me, and a major influence on my entry into this hobby. I received and completed the head years ago, got the unfinished chest and knee parts, and then set the whole concept aside for many years.

Now I’m back…

But rather than do a build thread (which I’m becoming notorious for not finishing and leaving hanging), I felt it may be more fun and useful to start an unofficial Builder’s Club of sorts, that any of us T2 fanatics may use as a repository of and resource for information, ask how-to questions, show off work, and just generally “chat it up”.

To kick off, here are some related threads…

have any of you builders considered cutting the dblank knee cast at the actual knee joint so it isn't quite as flat as a board?
 
I plan on making my own statue with the Godaiking bust:

Any idea where I can find a bandolier, chest, knee and belt from?
 
I've got an Endo (T-800) skull which should be good when all painted up.

Cutting Dblanks knee was a brilliant idea. Wish I had thought of it before I installed it lol

Looks great. I've just got a few more touches of weathering. Some wear in various places etc. I'm considering lights for the base. I'll see.

It looks more natural in real life. I just suck with iPhones lol

In T2, the T1000 asks the step mum for photo of John Conner. Is that photo of John Conner available?

I got the photo of Sarah from T1 and it adds nice touch to my display.

Yeah somebody had created a decent version. I had it on file but lost it. Anyone got it still? We'd both like a copy lol

That image was originally found on line but a smaller file size. I then decided to look in the paper props and found the larger file.
It was not squared up, so a slight rotation and fixed. It looks good printed out.
