Terminator 1 Endoskeleton Arm - Ref Photos Needed

[Mr. Nagata]

Does anyone have good reference photos of the Terminator 1 endoskeleton arm? The design seems somewhat less complex than the T2 arm, so I thought I'd try my hand at scratch-building one. I've had the Sideshow T2 arm for years, but I'd love to have an endoarm that's actually posable.

I love the first Terminator arm.

Here's some pics from a couple recent auctions.

Man, why the heck didn't they use that charred, damaged arm in T2 as the arm at Cyberdyne from the first T-800?

If anyone recreates that one... please, please, please let me know... I'd so want one.

Those are some fantastic photos! Thanks for sharing. Are there any more shots of the palm of the hand so we can get a better look at the piston mechanism going on there?

Wow, thanks for sharing those!

That arm is awesome. The hand parts look more bone like than the T2's sharp, squared off edges.

I think the T1 arm just looks tougher. The big knuckles look so cool.

I bid on this (metal full arm) when it was sold on ebay several years ago. It slipped through my fingers and sold for 400 bucks.
