Looks like these are the 3 3/4th.

Not bad, but not great. Might buy some for parts depending on the price but I'm not terribly impressed.

Agreed. The humans have some parts I can use but that is probably all they will be worth to me. I wonder if this is the kind of articulation we can expect for the new Star Trek figures. If so.... consider me disapointed.

The endo-skeletons look okay. But the regular figures disappoint. I'll wait and see how they look in person but honestly, other than the Terminators I don't have much interest in these at all. Maybe for fodder but not to collect.

T-crtches and a blank stare look on their face. I might get them just for what they are, but I won't go overboard with these.

Definatly getting the endosketons as these look ten times better than the last attempt (some might remember those from KB).

Might get one or two of the battle damaged ones too as they look kind of cool (not spetaclular or anything but interesting).

Humans do kind of bore me too, so I will keep away from them (and keep a little cash in my pocket as well).

The 1º pic are 10 inch, the 2º 3 3/4 (like Hipno says) and the 3º are 6 inch, In my opinion the look OK, love the terminators and the tank in the 3º pic is a must have.

I don't know I like 'em. At least as much as I can like T-crotchers. With the terminators I also don't need full articulation. I love the endo with the wool cap. I also like that big robot thing in the same pic.

OF course price point is the big deal.

Also where the HECK is Sarah?
I was hoping to see one of those :-(

I'll probably pick up a few.
I hope they put an Arnold in the toyline offerings somewhere.

They do look tempting, i'll wait to see them in person and how articulated they are.

Zing! These guys look like a cross between a 21st Century figure and one of those Intoyz SWAT guys. That's not a compliment.

Disappointing. I guess it's possible that they could look better in person, but it usually goes the other way. Hmm...the Joe movie figures, the end of the Indiana Jones line, these guys...it would appear that the toy industry is trying to help me save some money this year. Thanks, I guess.

looks like these will be only bought for fodder here and there. What's with the Zombie/Borg look?

I really like the Terminators. They would have had to seriously mess those up for me not to like them. I actually think they did a good job of making them look cool while still making them toys. Any more one way or the other and they could alienate the kids or collectors.

Not terribly impressed with these, especially teh humans. The articulation reminds me of some of the PTE figures. Okay for fodder. But then Playmates is the firm that brought us teh craptacular Star trek figures back in the 90s.

What worries me is the 'set of six figures' comment. Does that mean they are a single carded set of six, or that they will come boxed as a set of six. I am only interested in the Terminators, so if it is the latter I will definitely be passing on this line.

Endoskeletons for the WIN!
Humans, not too bad but not inspiring at all.
Lets hope for more terminator stuff, and of course more Vehicles.

Post subject:  Re: 3 3/4th Terminator Salvation figures.

i can understand the endos having blank stares..but damn. something about the humans just seem lifeless. Something about these kind of remind me of the sculpting style used for TMNT figures, but with more articulation. It could be how smooth and textureless these look.

And yes, look for these to be not cheap :(
